Yes. I have an Everton supporting mate who says Jagielka was awesome at CB before he got injured. I wonder whether Taylor would be guaranteed a start ahead of Jagielka and Yobo if both were available? Certainly not over Jagielka. My Everton supporting mate also has glowing things to say about him (I nicknamed him "Air" Jagielka after the ridiculous handball penalty he commited to ensure Sheffield went down a few years back - it turned out well for him as he got a move to Everton out of it). . Reckons he was their player of the season last year. Lescott gets more plaudits because he also chips in with a hefty amount of goals for a defender (or for a NUFC midfielder).

Prozac has a lot to answer for

what is it? its asking for log in info????? Some 50 year old bloke sitting in the stand with a cut out whole in his trousers and his cock just hanging out on the seat before the game. Two young lads come and sit next to him and then it ends as they start talking to him. Terrible if there were bairns and taht about like. Crikey, that's bad

Geddin! Good stuff, at this rate I might start to believe in the team again.

Why? He's livin' the dream, baby !

That conversation in full: MA "Nah Derek, I'm off Puerto Ba-noose tomorrow, get meself an eyeful if you know what I mean." * Chris Hughton walks past * MA "Oi ! You ! Yeah, you !" DL "It's Chris Hughton, Mike." MA "Yeah whatever. Oi Chris! Get me a tea would you, I'm bloody parched here! Cheers".

He plainly has no clue what's going on and will probably be the last to be told if anything happens with player or club sales. Good on him for putting up with a very difficult situation and getting on with it, we'd be stuffed without him at the moment.

Allen Gone-berger. Died young, whoever he was.

I would say the nightmare scenario is looking more likely every day. Add to that some no mark manager in charge, or Hughton still caretaking. I don't share the OP's wild optimism on the back of one win frankly. Doesn't matter how poor the other runners are in a race if you're hobbled.

we should be so lucky....

That Duff negotiation in full: Woy: "We was thinkin' of somethin' in the wegion of 4 million for Damien." Llambias: "Say again?" Woy: "How about 4 million for Damien?" Llambias: "DEAL! Now, is there someone else you fancy, how about Steven Taylor?"

At least we don't shag our cousins though... That's just rubbish, mate. They're too busy shagging their tractors.

Not if we go down again. It's a gamble, though. I'd say on the basis of the WBA game, we look like we'll better than the 3 worst teams in this division. But how many of the players that played against WBA, do you think will still be here The flaw in this thinking is that every other team in the division has depth to cover for injuries which we do not. When the injury crisis strikes again (and it will) will we still be better than the 3 worst teams in the division? This sort of ridiculous gamble on squad depth was what got us relegated last year amongst other things. Seriously, how many times will Ashley & Co make the same mistakes before the penny drops? Do they not realise players get injured?

I don't feel like I can laugh at Norwich, given what's happened to us

I honestly don't think there'll be a sale now. I think the fat clown thinks he can achieve a low budget return to the prem. Notwithstanding the mess he's made to date, which includes repeating all of last season's mistakes.

I would imagine the club and its staus would be to his liking but why should he risk an already tainted reputation by not having what he wants in place - Ashley needs to realise he can't bully people who aren't yet in his employ because he hasn't worked for - what? - four years. It's ridiculous to think he'd be setting conditions, he'd bite off Ashley's hand if he got a serious offer imo. I don't buy this myself.

The dressing room needs characters who understand the club. If we're not going to sign any, it'd be a big mistake to sell someone like Taylor imo.

Wuldn't surprise me if this is just O'Leary bigging himself up in the press. He's that desperate for a job I doubt he'd be laying down the law.

I think it would be a mistake to sell Taylor.

Makes sense, presumably Woy Hodgson knows him from his Blackburn days?

Did you get up early to post this?

I agree with you PP. Until it's entirely clear where Ashley is going with the sale, it's pointless protesting and could even be potentially counter-productive. Also it seems to me a comprehensive picket of his SD shops is going to be much more effective than a few charvas chanting outside SJP with the rest of the country pointing their finger and laughing at them. However I suppose if people want to protest that's up to them, it's still a free country so I'm told.

I can't honestly see the point of starting with Ameobi. But then I can't see the point of Ameobi either.
