Agreed. My point is if we're going to have a 'lesser' manager its something of a consolation knowing he's one of the most dignified ones out there. Gemmball are you reading? 'We're' meaning NUFC supporters, not Geordies.

You could probably push for an FA probe into Gemmill's behaviour. Im afraid he might be heralded as something of a NUFC hero after they hear the story, so no thanks.

Ive been highly impressed with the way Roeder's conducted himself throughout the season so far, most of which has been chaotic. He's had probably the worst luck imaginable with injuries, but unlike Souness he doesnt blame them for the team's performance and points out what went wrong and needs to be fixed. In the Everton post match interview he was asked how we're going to deal with the ridiculous injury list especially after Ramage's loss and he calmly replied that Butt will fill in that role. All of us expect to be hammered by the scum tomorrow, how easy must it have been for Roeder to start whinging about the players out and how anyone would have struggled in such a situation, almost excusing himself from a probable ManUtd defeat. I think Roeder realises that kind of attitude would have been confidence draining for the currently fit players, and its important to show them that he's got faith in them. And its not just his attitude towards the injury situation that is pleasing, its also refreshing to see someone conduct himself in such a dignified manner under such considerable pressure. Its often funny to see managers act like little babies at times, fuss and fume over each other and what not. Cant remember Roeder ever involving himself in such a situation, acts like a true mature grown up. Im, like most other fans I suppose, far from convinced about his managing capabilities; and Im not saying he should be our manager just because he's a gentleman, but its good to have a such a respectable man at the helm. Would abosutely love for him to go and prove himself a great manager here, even though Im far from sure he will.

Disappointed to see Emre wave his hand like that to signify a card, thats the kind of behaviour expected from wankers like Mourinho and Ronaldo. Emre has got a bad temper, was one of the instigators in that Turkey-Switzerland tunnel incident. But I would like to know how the Everton fans heard him say anything in all that noise, and on what evidence the FA are carrying out this investigation.

He's eligible according to BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/e...rem/6205747.stm

If that happens then I will blame the fans. Well, those at the match anyway. Too many people throwing around banana skins at SJP Ive heard

I wouldnt bid more than 2M for either Beattie or Upson. Neill would be great though, I think Hughes admitted he might think about selling him in a recent interview. His contract is up in the summer isnt it?

Great news But I'll have nightmares about him breaking down on his comeback should he return early.

Embarrasing

Im glad this is not on TV, less painful following the game through text. 2-0 now, absolute joke And yes, another corner, fantastic defending again. Cant wait until we sign another striker in January.

We got a penalty, which Martins missed in spectacular fashion.

Martins with one of the worst penalties you'll ever see. Butt playing at Centre Back with Ramage gone off injured.

Do you get a good idea of the atmosphere from the media on that site? Out of interest. Nah, just changed servers. Old board had over 1000 members, its gone down for some reason and most people probably think the site must have shut down. But it'll get there And it didnt get shut down because of all the copyright crap.

Cheers Eh?

Class stuff Matt and Jimbo

I'll offer him my armchair once he gets here I say, that's awfully decent of you, especially after he has been so awful to you (you wouldn't booby-trap the armchair would you?) A whoopie cushion ought to teach him

Only the fans who go to the match like. Wankers, all of you. Gemmill needs to go to pakistan to establish proper perspective. I'll offer him my armchair once he gets here By the way I dont think the fans make anyone feel lazy, but sometimes they can have an effect on player confidence. Titus' case for example. Having said that good players learn to deal with that, Titus' or anyone else's inability to do so means they are not fit for playing at this level.

I dont think we get the full picture! But a fair enough idea of what was going on you do get. Look, so maybe my first post came out as pompous. If so excuse me and forgive me, wasnt my intention at all. I made it 10 minutes after the game and I was a fair bit frustrated and perhaps not as careful with words as I should have been. But some of the response was still unwarranted. It seems to me that leaning towards a slightly different opninon on this board is asking for trouble. Not just my posts, I know you lads think Im crazy, but Ive noticed anybody who seems to have a, lets say 'revolutionary idea' gest a fair bit of stick. This place reminds me of a group of old Grandma's sitting together, everybody sharing their common problems and past experiences with each other and congratulating each other on their wisdom and how well they've done with their kids and all that. Anybody who says 'well, I think this or that could have been done differently' is kicked out. That's bollocks, I get disagreed with constantly, and I disagree with other people constantly. I still don't feel like I'm being persecuted, and many of those I disagree with seem pretty sound people. Fact is, the more you rise to it, the more people are going to try and provoke you. Personally I just stop reading threads I'm involved in where it's starting to degenerate into bickering. I think most people here know it's all just tongue-in-cheek to an extent, and just enjoy the arguing. I know that whenever I personally say something iffy it's usually with the intention of winding up (works, too), rather than your genuine supercilliousness. Nice to hear some abuse free stuff from you, sense as well. Not about my post being bullocks of course but the rest of it In fact I'll take your advice and stop reading this thread now. This forum is shit tbh. Too many people agreeing with each other. Crap Im reading the thread again.

Please don't tell me you're that stupid that you make a comment like you did without expecting people's backs to be up as a result? Your comment about the people being there being the "12th man to the opposition" is frankly insulting to those who've paid their money to go. I'm not in the least bit surprised they responded the way they did. Probably wouldnt have said it had I made the post an hour or so after the game. But it was five minutes after, I was fuming, and I felt the crowd was....erm....you know. I admitt that comment was unfair, and Ive apologized for it. But I stubbornly stand by everything else Ive said

Disaster for Pakistan cricket. Now I know how the scum must have felt after Ferdinand's ban. Except they had people to step in and we dont really. And all this with the world cup around the corner and us having a real chance. Dont see us doing too well in the Carribean now. Thats Shoaib gone I think. Asif was looking so good and this will hamper his career considerably. Both should be skinned alive to be honest, such a careless attitude at such a vital time As if the problems with Nufc werent enough..........
