all of those, bar chelsea, are winnable. but confidence of the squad will have a massive part to play - that's why it's crucial that we win tonight. in fact, if we don't beat at least west, brom, fulham and wigan out of that lot then i think we're in deep deep shit as we'll do well to get anything against villa.

this one is must win. a hard fought draw isn't good enough this time

Why not? We were fucking cheated, are you telling me we wouldn't have beaten Belgium in the Semi Final, and a Kraut side we'd humped 3-0 before the tournament. We were the better side against Argentina, and were getting stronger when Barnes came on, if Lineker had've scored that open goal we'd have won it. if we'd got to the final, the germans would probably have beaten us on penalties

i doubt we would have won it in 86 or 98. 90 was our best chance. bloody germans

if barton had been any good for us to date, it would be easier to forget about the fact that he's a total knobber off the field

old mother riley. good grief - we are in trouble

do you post so much crap on here because you can't quite work out why spurs are even shitter than us?

just remind them that they're from sunderland. that should shut them up for a bit

young local lad etc but he's looked pretty shit everytime i've seen him play for us. chances are though that we'll sell him and he'll go on to become a class player elsewhere

styles has never been a premiership ref tbf

super, super joe. super joe kinnear

shocking use of the comma there stevie

yes please

....shit. doesn't look like martins has made the squad

at the end of the day, it's eleven men against eleven men

i've got a feeling joe's going to be around for a lot longer than most of us thought at first

is martins fit enough to start? that'll be a massive relief if so with owen being out. Givenr, Beye, N'Zogbia, Taylor, Coloccini, Butt, Guthrie, Geremi, Duff, Jonas, Martins ....isn't a bad team.

aye. i thought crazy clarence was a canny player

should never have been sacked the problem is, he would never have left. should have been given more time to turn the bad start to the season round, (which he probably would have). totally. i could never understand why so many wanted him out. look how shite we've been since we sacked him. worst decision ever

Good shout. Dalglish signed us some good value for money players among the dross he bought such as Nobby, Shay, Speed, Dabizas to an extent and even Hamann who was fantastic in his brief spell here and of course has since proved very good value for money elsewhere. dabizas was total crap

he was total crap though. He looked good for a limited time i think must have missed that brief period

he was total crap though.
