What a winnet Taylor is man. Good first half there, we've been the better side and have carved out some decent chances. It's good to see so many of the younger lads getting a chance and doing well, feel bad for Obertan and hope it's nowt serious. Sissoko needs to pass the ball mind, there's been a few runs where Aarons, Cisse, Obertan and Ameobi have all been in good positions outside of him and he's opted to try and beat two players in front of him, it's got us a couple of free kicks but I'd rather he'd pass it.

Quality buys there Fish, especially Ward-Prowse he was always a world beater on my FM14 games. Aye I loved Balanta on 14 so gutted I missed out on him, Ashley upped my budget from 4m to 7m (unrealistic or what) so I bid for Ferreyra and the cheeky nob re-signed with Shakhtar!! So I signed John Guidetti for 800k. I'd love to shift De Jong and Vuckic especially for that sort of money, I can't get any use out of De Jong tbh that ante Coric fella is out performing him and he's only 17. Plus I've been playing Cabella in that position waiting for Ben Arfa back. My team is inconsistent as hell atm, beat Chelsea in the cup, pumped West Ham 5-0 then got a twonking off Swansea. I also just found out that Santon isn't injured but is sitting unregistered in my U21's . I'm hoping to get rid of Colback as well, I brought in Francis Coquelin for next to nowt and he's always been a decent player for me in previous games. Also Emeghara is moaning his bits off so I'm flogging him, Perez, Cisse and Ferreyra are all doing so well I've not needed him.

Aye his last comments were smug as fuck.

Aye I guess so, I'd also say it's fair to assume that a city as large as New York will have a higher population of fucking loons than Newcastle so that no doubt plays into it.

Aye, I'd agree with the point on the busy street especially in the middle of the day. I'm also not sure how widespread this really is, I've not really seen it happen much outside of mortal people being nobbers. I could be wrong and it could happen constantly but I'm not too convinced.

Canny squad that Andrew. Nice first season in all Fish, that Ayoze is a canny player on this one. Just started a toon game and that Ferreyra is quality for me so far 5 goals in 3 games (3 in 2 games in prem), beat Man Utd 3-0 first game. Haidara seems to be better than last year and I've been trying to offload Dummett. I got Jesus Vallejo on a free (think it ended up costing 1.3m in compo) as he looks handy already at 17, Ante Coric for 900k from Dinamo seeing as he's rated as the next Halilovic, who's the next Kovacic, who's the next Modric. Brought in Innocent Emeghara on a free as a backup up front but I'm unsure if he's any better than the options I have so may have been an error. Still have about 4m in the transfer pot, I tried for Ayew and Balanta but I didn't have enough to finalise the Ayew transfer (was hoping to get Dummett out the door to cover the difference) and Balanta chose Benfica. I give Ben Arfa a new deal asap and I'm just hoping Roma don't take Mbiwa's low agreed price up, if so I'll possibly sign Ferreyra if he keeps this up.

There's definitely some dodgy bastards in the video. I will also say I've never felt compelled to yell "have a good day" at random fit lasses in the street, so even that is a little odd and I doubt they'd say the same if it was some lard arse waddling past them (they'd probably say something else mind which I guess is another form of harassment) so in that respect I see how they call it harassment. I know a lot of blokes will see this sort of video and think "I'd love to walk down the street getting compliments" , it would definitely get tiresome after a while and we also wouldn't feel very threatened if we were walking down a street and an 8 stone lass said something, it wouldn't feel as pleasant if you were walking down the street and a load of 20 clem bodybuilders kept yelling "nice arse" and following you. I'm not sure what the money would go to mind, there's not a lot you can do to stop dodgy bastards saying dodgy stuff unless you use the money to hire blokes to batter them anytime they say something creepy. The bloke walking alongside her for 10 minutes or whatever needs some help mind .

World class.

Saw somewhere that the only teams to beat Man City 0-2 at the Etihad the last few years have been Barcelona, Bayern and now us (very restricted record I know but we haven't had much to cheer recently)

Fucking hell. Was at work so just saw the result, hope I can find a dodgy copy somewhere so I can watch. That Aarons is some talent, Ashley will be tugging himself at the thought of his future fee. Glad to see the youngsters making a claim for the first team, good on them.

Fuck off Pardew you total fucking sham.

Ryder is such a horrible writer. Pardew is bang on imo, he definitely brings a losing consistency to the team. I actually like that we're going to play Sammy, Ayoze etc as I think they've looked better in their appearances than most of the normal first teamers. I would like to see Cabella mind, this talk of the new French lads not being up to the pace etc yet wouldn't it make sense to play them in a Carling Cup match then? he's not bothering playing them too much in the Premiership so may as well use them in a game he clearly puts no value in.

I think that's also the order in terms of their potential in all tbh. Obertan's getting to that age where you have to start thinking he probably wont improve too much imo. I'd like Ameobi to become something and he definitely has the tools (same as Obertan does) to be a decent winger, just needs to make his stamp on the games more often.

I'm sick of hearing bellends like Merson keep banging on about that as if it was definite. We were fucking crap that season under fat arse, and the football was so fucking dire to watch I thought we'd never see football as bad ever again (we have of course seen as bad if not worse under the current clinging winnet) I remember that game against Fulham where we won 1-0 through a 90+ min pen by Barton as a particularly dreadful one to watch. Allardyce can fuck off, the man is a prick and his brand of football is fucking horrible, his pals pipe up anytime one of his teams go through a spell of getting a few decent results and not playing football that makes a Pulis team look like Barca but it's not going to last.

The obligatory left back being brought on sub

This is going to give Spurs fans aneurysms, the amount they controlled the first half only to lead by 1 and now having a goal disallowed.

Good cross by Cabella mind.

Perez! HAHAH get that up you cockney mackems

Gan on SammY!!

Watching the goal again, we had about 5 or 6 players stood in the 6 yard box and they had Adebeyor and another lad, neither fucking marked. Honestly man this lot are so pish.

What has Pardew got over Ashley, it must be good because there is fuck all reason to keep this shite going. The "don't mess up consistency of leadership" Bowyer and others have babbled on about is fucking laughable, what's the point in consistency if it looks this bad? I can only assume Ashley's plan is to keep this meff and let him spend a bit to try and turn things round, but he has shown that even if it does improve for a little it will go back down to this.

Boring as fuck yet again, shite system, shite effort level just all fucking shite. Players are free a good amount of the times teams put the ball into the box from a free kick or corner, it's been like this for pretty much Pardews entire spell in charge.
