OTF

20 minutes down and Shola looks like he's already run his race.

Was actually encouraging to see Williamson charge forward there. Very nearly lost the ball still...

Debuchy stepping into the Tiote role... pointless shot from way too far out.

Dangerous early ball in from Jonas.

Think he was annoyed as Cisse, though why he still played the pass. Mind you shortly after Cisse made a better run to the back post and stayed on side only for Cabaye to shoot.

Fucking Cisse man, off-side the whole time. That's nothing to do with form.

Williamson's 99th game. 0 goals and yet he's still targeted for our free-kicks.

Shola up top

When was the last time we had a match abandoned? Not including that pre-season one a few years back where they played more than half the game on a heavily waterlogged pitch in strong rain. I can't remember a premier league game of ours bing abandoned in recent time, though could have slipped my mind.

Only if they're 18th.

Steven Taylor is apparently available, however don't see him being rushed back in by Pardew. I would welcome it, he at least offers a threat from set pieces and isn't afraid to take the ball forward if space opens. Other teams know they can hound Williamson and get the ball back through an aimless hoof.

On a scale of one to ten how annoyed would people be if Shola started up front in this? I would probably be about an 8 I think.

Now for the Europa?

Reported. Only racism directed at caucasians is permissable here.

Just booked flights to hawaii. Going to see the classy erotic skirty dancing ladies.

Good up and coming player apparently, just turned 21 and banging them in in Spain.

Cheeky (literal) fucking bastard. Harry: "Newcastle United wanted him and Graham Carr (chief scout) doesn't make too many mistakes. Graham's got good judgement."

Harry: "I'm disgusted with the state of wages at this club and at the first available opportunity I will be ensuring that the club buys their way out of this financial mess."

In my imagination there is no complication.

To be fair it's not like he's some unknown talent. Shows the merit in getting the job done fast and quick behind closed doors. But still must be annoying, and also means that the next target pretty much knows straight off the bat that they weren't first choice. They still have two weeks to set us up to pull away from the prospect of relegation.

Pointless speculating, time to shut the forum down. The oracle has spoken.

Surely they could loan him out to a local club under the provision that he forgoes his current level of pay and gets whatever he can negotiate with them. Once the crisis comes to a conclusion he returns to us.

Time to see now just how well the club are prepared.

It will be interesting to see if their next phone lowers in price to make it more attractive. I can see this happening given how competitive the market is currently.

He's truly a penis of the highest order. Doesn't like Llambias obviously, which is mildly interesting excluding the fact that there's probably not many (his family included) that do like the creepy looking twat.
