Ronaldo just has one of those faces

shit, nearly a 2nd!

Mine says Setanta Sports - so why isnt it on in UK?

fuckinghell I nearly had a seizure there. Great start!

Yeah, I think we'll get pasted, but the odds on a draw or a win are pretty favourable.

Not going to comment on the game as what I thought of it has already been said.... However, did anyone see Alan Smith when they were making the Butt-Geremi substition? My lip reading isnt that bad and he was quite clearly looking over at Houghton who was making the sub with the words, "Prick, fucking prick". Clearly annoyed at not getting an opportunity to play, morale really is great in the camp isnt it Derek?

Wasnt Rooney 15 when he first played for Everton? Built like a 20 something but still only 15

I'd be surprised if there were any bids in the current financial climate. Unfortunately I think we're going to have to just sit on things for the moment and see how it goes. I've sort of accepted that this isnt going to suddenly change overnight, and it looks as though we will still be in this kind of situation this time next season. For all that Kinnear has done, he's not the man to take us forward, least for his health concerns. We need to have a management staff which is happy with the way the club is run, and also staff who can attract good players. Ill be interested to see what happens in the summer in regards to transfers and management and then again in the January window. In a years time, ill make a judgement to whether things have improved or not.

Was he one of Wise's finds? Absolute steal. Just hope he doesnt have his head turned in the summer.

Good point.... For me, from a shortlist of Butt, Bassong & R Taylor, Butt gets MOM

Smith on for Lovenkrands. Good to see him back, even if it is for the numbers

This is a good team performance so far, just hope they hang on or even snatch a win. Always difficult with a man down

Definitely need to be more dynamic up front the second half. Shola isnt good enough up top on his own

Thats likely to earn Nolan a longer ban. Appalling gamesmanship

He actually looks a bit better in that picture than when he was at the BBC awards last year. Agree 100% on the Jade Goody point though

I was a big supporter of him a few years back prior to Shearers retirement. When he left I thought that he would be able to show us that he could play as the pairing of him and Al was poor. Unfortunately its hard to defend the indefensible and its clear that he's just not good enough Xisco must be absolutely awful if JoKin keeps on picking Ameobi over him

Just watching the game on MOTD and to be honest, his leaving hasn't really bothered me until I saw him in net for City. Then it all fell into place like a bad dream.

Are we sure this isnt another lie from the management? Get well soon if not.

shambles. Taylor needs to look up the definition of defender

I wish that more players would do this as it would mean that it would be more open book and there would be checks and balances on the system. If a club knew that potentially ex-players could stir up a shitstorm, then Im sure some of the things wouldnt happen.

I like Ketsbaia's idea, but in the vain of keeping it colourful, Red stands out more than any other colour. I know its the scum colours but see how easy it is to spot something thats red among a sea of darker colours.

And I have posted therein monsieur! Good man

Asprilla, Ive just created a new link for T Shirt ideas http://www.toontastic.net/board/index.php?showtopic=23027

Just listening to the supporters meeting, the idea of T Shirts being displayed for a peaceful demo at the match seemed to get the thumbs up. I have come up with this simple idea. Anyone else care to post theirs?

Bit of a cliched finish with the tunes though Pud, were they off your WMP playlist?
