Your definition of legend doesn't match mine. if he keeps banging them in at the rate he's going at, he's going to achive cult status with me. he's ketbaia mark II in the making. all he needs now is a novelty nutcase celebration.

By all accounts he was fantastic up front on his own against Arse the other week. But I do agree that having someone like Le Sib (or preferably someone a lot better) does help him. dyer played alongside him for most of that game iirc

what an extraordinary array of mullets

i think playing alongside sibierski has helped him. he doesn't look much good as a lone ranger up top - far better when he can peel off a target man. how good was le sib's through ball for his first goal. le bald genius is fast becoming a club legend

taylor's goal looked offside to me. nowt wrong with oba's though. and their blurk was the last man so by the letter of the law he had to go...not that i wouldn't be screwing if we'd been on the receiving end of that decision

doesn't surprise me, new owners and all. ian dowie for manager if pardew walks?

i predict that we'll loan him out until his contract has nearly run out then sell him for a nominal fee because no one fancies his wages. another cracking bit of business from fat fred.

i thought hidden was a steaming pile od diddly pap tbh. couldn't see what all the fuss was about. i enjoyed pan's labyrinth, volver and walk the line

for two starts int he premiership for arsenal and a no show in the world cup? hmmmm

*winces* Brave man! This is one to listen to on the wireless, alone in a darkened room tbh. i was in the same seats for the league cup game last year. it was a horrible night, watching shearer on his last legs and having to them bleat their 'that's why we're champions' ditty ALL BASTARD NIGHT

i'm in with the home fans for the chelsea game. could be another painful one.

ecouraging signs on saturday.

a bruised toe ffs. that's marcelino-esque

looked like a premiership goalscorer just not a great team player. you think? he looked poor in front of goal from what i can remember seeing of him. Im sure he had a better than 1in2 record and thats not to be sniffed at playing in that side. really? for west brom? that's pretty good considering he started most games from the bench

he's pacey but he didn't look premiership class at west brom

how can dyer still be out with a gash in his leg when he was running around apprantly fine 5 minutes after it happened during the match? i'm prediciting another liver/hamstring complaint that will keep him out for the next 6 months

This year i'm serioulsy contemplating it. are you restricted to buying gadgety presents or did you risk getting any clothes etc too?

i could do with getting my bonus a month early. i've got loads of bastard christmas present to buy. can't be doing with the west end either. has anyone ever bought all their presents online before?

if dyer and duff are back for blackburn i fancy our chances of making it three wins on the bounce. we could finish the weekend nearer midtable than the bottom. vital that we do with chelsea coming up. lose blackburn and we could be right back in the shit. it's a tight league this year. 40 points might not be enough to stay up

nice to see us scouting for good young talent instead of blowing stupid money on more second rate johnny foreigners.

he's just come out and said he has "never been so happy" as he is at newcastle. legend

that teams worth over £50m allegedly

Don't agree with that at all. Keepers should never be captain, they're worse than strikers. Your captain should be in the thick of things so ideally should be a centre midfielder then a centreback. Parker was the perfect choice for us and his performances up to that point more than merited it. The problem with Parker is the way Roeder is playing him. He is either playing him as our attacking midfielder with Emre left to sit or he is telling them to keep switching with each other. I can't decide which but either way it isn't working because Parker plays much better when he's the one to sit and Emre is much better when he attacking. When Butt is playing Roeder understands which way to play the two of them but can't seem to see the obvious with Parker. so what would you do if all three were fit? would be harsh to leave out butt on current form

it's not a bad team tbf.
