  1. Is Todd OK? Kyle W@*ker tried to chop him in half when he went into the corner and Todd was left on the floor clutching his groin area. I never have liked Kyle W*nker, he's always had an edge to him.
  2. They couldn't find the word "bench" in the dictionary.
  3. Martin Peters would have been a Farke/Webber type player - perceived to be past it at Spurs; his work rate, his movement off the ball, his passing and vision, and his ghosting around the box at set pieces. I could see him making one of his diagonal runs to connect with the ball at the near post and score with a glancing header. Still one of the best players we've ever had.
  4. To be fair it was pretty thick all match. I was up the Riverend and we had no idea what was happening up at the Barclay - there was a noise and it gradually filtered down the sides that we had scored. It's just that a wall of even thicker fog rolled in with 5 minutes to go.
  5. I've been going to a rehabilitation gym class this year and so went down and watched our warm-up with fresh eyes, and I was impressed with the intensity. I noticed that the Newcastle warm-up looked less intense and now Five live are reporting that Dummett has come out and said that their warm-up wasn't right - something wrong in the House of Damart?
  6. Thanks for that NN. I think a lot of us saw that it was Pukki who got back, but I had no idea where he had started from and now I am even more impressed. In some ways this was my favourite moment of the match, certainly up there with all his goals.
  7. It looked to me that Hanley injured himself trying to close out Shelvey before he scored - he was certainly limping thereafter - and didn't look very comfortable when someone passed the ball back to him. I think it was his knee, so maybe Shelvey got lucky and Hanley was faultless.
  8. Great assists and really glad for the lad. am I allowed to say that I would have liked to see him track back a bit more - we were a bit exposed down our left, but luckily Newcastle failed to exploit it.
  9. That's what $60 is worth these days. Wrong thread?
  10. I for one am fully behind this experiment, to try and show that there is another way other than paying stupid money for over-priced players. I suspect that DF and SW fully expect it to be a struggle, and that we may fail... this time, but the investment in the Academy and Under 23 squad suggests that they would intend to repeat the experiment if allowed. Let us not forget that they did not expect promotion last year - the experiment was as successful as it could be - promotion as champions. I am sickened by the toadiness of the MOTD "pundits", who repeatedly fail to call out the top clubs for buying success and distorting the transfer market in their favour. This season every goal scored by our "priceless" front line will be a spit in their eyes. We've tried doing it the conventional way and that didn't work - more than once - so let us be true to our Norfolk roots and "Do Different". In Farke and Webber I believe.
  11. Agree, and with plants growing in the guttering on the cab, and a number plate half falling off reading D 1 NOW
  12. I'm sure that Archant, with their tongue so far up Old Buckenham Airfield's exhaust pipe, could arrange for a dodgy plane with an un-certificated pilot to fly him back tonight and get him back in time for the bus to Liverpool.
  13. £65m is a lot, but what is it in terms of % of turnover, and where does it put us in relation to everyone else in the Prem?
  14. To help himself he's already written all our player's names on the piece of yellow card he keeps in his back pocket.
  15. We can't afford to miss open goals like this, but maybe we're getting them out of our system.
  16. I thought it was a documentary about Depression, but then realised it was the August meeting of the Ip$hit AA Group. Paul, it's gonna take more than 12 steps to get back to the Chumps.
  17. I've just tried to remake this video with my Missus at Walcot. She said it was too cold to take her track suit off; and who knew that the Nokia 6620 wasn't water-proof? Not me.
  18. Like Craig Fleming then - or was it a coincidence that so many goals were scored by the player being "marked" by him? At least Malky could jump.
  19. We've gone from "The Ministry of all the Talents" to "The Government of no talent" in just over 200 years.
  20. Does the rumoured £20 million move of Maupay from Brentford to Sheffield United change anyone's thoughts that they are nailed on for relegation?
  21. I think we'll keep on spending until the Petty Cash tin at the back of Stuart Webber's draw is empty.
  22. You are choosing to miss the point here Lampard failed to improve Derby in his season there, and only did that well by renting some of the best young talent from the Prem. This may prove to be too early in his career to have such a big job, and may ultimately affect his career and not in a good way.
