OTF

I'm confused, are you for or against LM?

I perfored a 5 second cover my butt google before I posted, and subsequently shoved in the word 'same' as a covert coverall caveat. Would normally have looked into it in greater detail, but was on my way somewhere. A Remy and Debuchy par deux would be encouraging. If it's a stagnant window it will only hurt the performance of our existing players.

If Ba goes, he will be a big loss. Very few forwards have the same knack for scoring that he has. Have only seen very little of Remy. I'd say that Ashley will be less than reluctant to do the deal because Remy is younger, doesn't have the same injury cloud, and will be on lesser wages.

That about sums it up.

Someone needs to let Tiote in on it.

We've paid this season for having a disrupted defensive unit, not just our back four but also Tiote who was instrumental in forming a first line of defense. This season Williamson has made many costly mistakes, and Coloccini too has had more poor moments than we've become accustomed to over the past few seasons. Jonas has been moved around more than ever before and doesn't seem to know what his role is out there. Tiote in comparison to last season has been horrible, the bad aspect are still there but now instead of making smart percentage passes he's looking to pick out intricate passes, or worse, to shoot fruitlessly from distance. The same rings true for Cabaye, he was forcing things, routinely trying to hit impossible volleys or make perfect passes. This was the core of our team and we just do not have it this season. We're even missing Guthrie, who was able to step in when Cabaye was unavailable.

Strange for you of all people to highlight why LM is no longer here.

I looked at this picture long enough to see CT leering in the background. Butter face though.

He couldn't defend himself when he was here.

Because of your stomach TBH. Just went to the shops for some juice and found myself checking out the oven cleaning options, thanks CT. Come back to this thread only to be confronted with full frontal nudity. Two birds one stone.

Not entirely sure why but had a chuckle at this. Dying to know whether Oven Pride did the job for CT, if it worked on his should blitz through mine.... Though now that I think about it Oven Pride isn't available in Australia, probably because like everything else our grease is tougher.

Could work also with Jonas moved wider and Marveaux through the middle, though this sort of game I could see Marveaux being anonymous. What I hope we don't see is long balls aimlessly hit up the pitch. It's ugly, it gives them more possession and it's ugly.

Glad to have a Saturday fixture again.

Pardew should sit Tiote down and make him watch some of his better performances from last season, then ask where that player has gone.

Moreover I'd be surprised if there's not at least an element of that in the whole sad affair.

The only exception to differentiate it from a traditional marriage is with two gents they need to enter through the rear door.

Me too, unless Ashley hires and fires Keegan in the next few months I can't see us being in the relegation scrap for real.

Anita suffers from being so small. He's not particularly good on the dribble so can't make use of it in his favour. Unfortunate, but that's the way it is. He's still a solid handy player. Fulham put in more effort than we did, our delivery to our forwards was incredibly poor. Colo unlucky not to score. Simpson defensively was more than adequate in this game, but his crossing was next to useless. Once again our free-kick defending was embarrassing.

You're not doing it right.

I'd never even heard of them, but I have little doubt that you're correct.

The whole thing was insanely beat up, as tends to be the norm when it comes to the royals. If it wasn't then only a tiny and insignificant speck of listeners would have heard the incident. From reading the transcript it's hard to apportion any meaningful level of blame to Jacintha who merely received the call and dispatched it. The fact that so many media outlets picked this up and ran with it is testament to the gluttonous failed self perpetuating state of mainstream media.

What if one of the DJs kills themselves over this? Who's to 'blame' then? Playing the blame game at this stage is ridiculous. Can't help but think that she must have been reprimanded in some way, but logically there would have to be a number of other contributing factors. Will likely come out in the wash. And I don't listen to that station for the record.

Both really. Perhaps Ba incorrectly assumed that Cisse understands the rules?

Cisse playing from Leon Best's rule book.
