Well the good news is that Senegal are fucking shit.

The problem is we should have been out of sight by half-time - this is down to playing with no strikers.

Typical "balancing the scales|" bottleless cunt.

One of the definitions of a footballer in my book is one who would have stayed up there - the cheating cunt was looking for a red card before he even went for the ball on the half way line. Still a bit lucky to get away with it. Fucking good job we've got something to show for the domination.

Despite everything else, Ashley is the only major shareholder who hasn't pocketed any cash. Is it really beyond people to understand the idea of overall net outlay? Of course any of us would see a windfall as a chance to splash out but that's why none of us are rich. Also it would be pointless from his viewpoint to spend that money if six months later he had to chuck the same in to cover losses. Again that's not a fans view but its reality.

Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool all now have much larger turnovers than us. That makes us about seventh at present.

I don't see what's wrong with continuing to despise the regime and accept that there's no real prospect of long term success while taking simple pleasure in how the team is doing. I honestly think Leazes thinks that relishing the current position equates to being an Ashley fan.

Towards the end of that clip he passes it to Best for him to go 1-on-1 with Kenny. Best doesn't even get remotely near shooting on goal. If that had been Ba you're looking at a goal. We need another striker desperately. The thing about getting footballers into the team is that it will show up the dross even more. I hate seeing nice, subtle play which should produce the goods hit the fucking brick wall that is either of the two useless cunts we had up front on Sunday. I just hope he's still being picked when we get Ba back.

Redknapp talking as if he wasn't a complete tart of a player

I usually don't mind Wilkins but he must know you can get up on adrenilin before realising you're hurt. Hopeful Derry will walk now though.

A lot of Wenger's early success was built on the money they got for Petit and Overmars. It's interresting that LM derides the "live within your means" view but I thought that's what we did pretty much until about 2003. It was only when Shepherd started spending through credit that I think it got dodgy.

I'd also say that if LM insists being half decent at the moment is due to a fluky management appointment which is fair comment, I'd say the previous regime only progressed when they fluked two good managers and their response to adversity under shit managers they appointed took us backwards massively.

Sick as fuck - literally and figuratively - been off for two days with a horrendous case of food poisoning - vomited the way though Monday night and spent last night and today shiiting what feels like sulphiric acid - my poor arse. Absolutely starving but afraid to eat.

Slight digression but I've also always wanted to ask a Tory revisionist (not KCG obviously) what particular piece of legislation passed by Labour "opened the flood gates" for immigration because I think it's bullshit. All of the Eastern Europeans given as one example are a result of the Maastricht treaty as far as I'm aware signed by you know who.

Just done an instinctive run though and came to another 28 so went 61. Don't think we'll lose at home but will probably lose at Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea. a few draws chucked in.

Sky pulled the line shit with me a couple of years ago. The connection to my upstairs box had become loose which to me was a good enough reason but not to them. Ended up sticking it out and did without them for a few weeks then they backed down.

Might have already been said but if there's truth in the story that they've agreed he doesn't want to play on the wing then maybe they should revisit that conversation. It would solve two problems - getting him games and preventing Obertan from playing.

Kops reaction to Oldham player incident - singing Suarez' name - scum.

If you go deep into the thrust of her argument about the colonial past then I'm sure there's an element of truth in the way European powers used tribal infighting to their advantage during conquest. However I think that's being generous in "excusing" her words which were probably ill-thought out - and relating that past to modern politics especially is OTT. Then again in my lifetime "the establishment" in this country hasn't been afraid to set Asians against West Indians for example when its suited them. Of course equating the establishment with being "white" isn't really a race thing - its just how it is. If she'd made a point about the ruling classes in the UK using divide and rule to keep the plebs in line completely free of race/colour then she'd have an excellent point. Unfortunately I think her only focus on politics is from a race pov rather than from a (true) Labour pov which is why I don't like her.

True - but as CT says she is prone to idiotic remarks. There's a piece in The Gaurdian about the over-hyped offence industry which basically says that people ahould be allowed to say stupid things (eg Clarkson etc) without a witch hunt every time which I agreed with. When you consider it took weeks for Fox to resign when he had a corrupt bum-chum I think calls for her to be sacked are fucking ridiculous.

RIP Always enjoyed Blockbusters

What's with the lack of first names for his teammates as well?

Well that was good. Key for me was that Cabaye had his best game for a while which made us look like the team of the early games again. Still fucked without the pair for the next few games which is huge pisser.

How the fuck they can read the bit in the report where in reply to "why did you foul me" and he replied "because you're black" can be construed as anything else but racist wummery is absolutely staggering. If he doesn't "get it" they should keep increasing the ban until he does.

Have to say I caught a minute of MOTD and was disgusted to hear Shearer saying it was great to see Gerrard back when he'd just about turned the game against us.
