Perhaps its only the nerd in me speaking but I wouldnt call it that boring. But aye compared to previous seasons it was a bit of a drag. Its kind of inevitable as far as epic fantasy is concerned though. Cant remember too many series Ive read that dont get bogged down some way down the middle before picking up towards the end. Tolkien was the only one who avoided it really because he kept it short. Meanwhile there's still no release date for the 6th book so the trend may not be ending anytime soon.

In case you're interested on the pace of things to expect in upcoming seasons based on the books: I kind of agree with the violence thing though.Yeah its one of the central themes in the books but I think the TV guys are overdoing it a bit. The Oberyn Mountain fight is a prime example. Not sure if I should use a spoiler tag here so I will just in case:

We could get back Shane and play him RB using his left foot with his back facing the opposition. The curving back passes into the keeper would be something else.

Like a new signing.

More than doubles what we paid for him. Ashley will be more than happy. Invest 5-6M in a replacement and the rest goes the same way the Carroll and Cabaye money went. Wonderful.

Good news, mostly because its out of the blue. If Ant's right at least we wont have to see another one being mercilessly Pardewed.

I genuinely thought we had turned a corner after that season, that we could be going some place. What an idiot I was. The following summer and everything since then has fixed all that.

Im just enjoying the World Cup and not even looking at anything remotely NUFC these days. Its wonderfully refreshing.

Aye I agree with all of that. I just think in the rare case when intent is clear to see, like the Haidara one, then an exemplary ban should be handed out. The excuse they handed out for not doing so in that case was absolutely pathetic too. Load of rubbish. I'd much rather be on the end of a Suarez bite than a cowardly challenge like that.

He should be told to go see a psychiatrist then. Bans wont cure the disorder, as we already seem to be seeing in Suarez's case. Not that I think the ban is harsh or anything, this kind of behaviour just cant be allowed. However the bastards who like breaking other people's legs also need the discouragement of a potential 6 month ban.

Im aware of the logic, I was just saying its shit. The tackle on Haidara should have had a 6 month ban, because it could have ended his career.

True, but I still think its disgraceful that tackles obviously meant to injure are usually only dealt with with a 3 game ban. Mcmanaman De Jong etc etc

Decent read that. A football based job would be bloody fantastic. At worst, you'd be complaining about having to watch 6 matches in a day

If Tiote got the armband, the only difference would be we'd see 10 additional yellows a season along with 5 additional shots per match into the leazes. Its a bit of a non issue anyway, we've got tons of bigger problems.

Happy birthday! Have a great day

I thought the people saying we are destined for another relegation after last season were being a bit dramatic. I know its only June and I still think Ashley will spend enough to survive but the way things have gone on in the transfer market so far and they way we're conducting our business, if it can be called that, you begin to wonder if we'll be able to sign anyone decent at all.

Same here. iphone is so terribly bland once you've tasted android. I suppose it varies from person to person. Some people like to stick to what they know. There's nothing stopping anyone from keeping their android phones simple if they want to though.

Pardew couldnt build a team around freaking Pele

Not the kind of profit we'd make on selling a promising young player from the continent thought. Thus not worth the effort

Shame. Would have been a decent upgrade on Williamson. I know we cant be involved with every player but still..........
