OTF

Arteta should have scored there. Lucky for us. Anichebe and Nolan at it...

Nice movement and passing there. WOuld have been a lovely goal. WOULD.

Finally on comes Fergie AKA Oliver.

Ameobi should have seen our guy on his outside there, would have been a great chance.

Noone closing down Arteta again down the right, thankfully a completely open Saha horribly messed up his header.

Fook me.. Beckford nearly just scored. Great save from Harper.

FTR I'm watching on TV.

The Mask looks like he's in slow motion out there... has still managed to get two shots on target off somehow

Ferguson looks like the work experience kid..

After 10 minutes if things don't improve I'd be putting Simpson back to right back and bringing on Ferguson at left back.

Did well just to get his foot to it I thought.. took a deflection before it got to him.. through a crowd of players.

Danny Simpson good overlap, didn't want to cross on his left but when he did earnt us a corner... only for Jonas to take it weakly.. but he's earnt us a free... .....damn... close there, Williamson got a touch on it but coulnd't divert it goalbound.

So typical of us. 1-0 up and cruising, before you know it we're 2-1 down and one of our best players is off injured.

They were just teasing CT. The Mask is on Simpson to left back...

Enrique off???? FFS Ferguson on at left back...

The Danny Simpson, Steven Taylor experiment is not working.

FFS. Arteta milks it, and they score from the free-kick.

Arteta given way too much space there, and noone picking up Osman. This isn't a dig at him because it's not his position but Simpson seems lost out there the majority of the time. Oh, and one goose step from Stevie T thus far.

There's pro-Ashley fuckwits still?

Mike and Derek taking turns to slip into his place and give him dead legs in his sleep.

Simpson did ok as a stop gap playing in a wing back role but I don't think he'll be started on the right. Between Barton and Ireland they'll figure something out, but if not Lovenkrands will drop back to play on the left with Jonas moving to the right. This would give Ranger a start up front, though if Shola's back the phantom will play alongside Best keeping Ranger as an impact player which is where he is best utilised IMO.

Plus he's 30 years old.

Based on their on field performances I hope they stay up. They've turned in their fair share of entertaining performances and then some. If they do manage to stay up, the pressure will be on them next season when teams take them more seriously. They'll never be a permanent (or there abouts) fixture in the top flight, but credit to them for enjoying it whilst they're here.

In tontatic!!! To many quotes!!!

I hope that's not the plan.
