Some of those people trying to pull a fit Russian are very, very scary.

Crikey, i'm off to Russia!

I'm sorry, but your continual need to label people like Pearson with such degrading titles undermines your credibility to comment as far as i'm concerned. Its a shame Scooby, you do raise fair points from time to time but ruin it with these childish tendancies. Pearson is proving to be a very capable manager for Leicester, and i'm sure he will be for a while longer. A mere 'bootboy' wouldn't be capable of this and would not have had the coaching background he had. It was never realistically going to work though for him her especially with Lowe taking over, particulalry as Rupert wished to do things his own way. Money was almost certainly the key issue. But I must say, I don't believe Pearson would be doing as good a job as Jan is with the youngsters. And as such Poortvliet is the right man for the job right now. Pearson however, for a more 'typical' league squad would be the better choice. I firmly believe that the true measure of Pearson would have been how we would perform after a full pre-season with the squad he had (That would never have happened though, the assetts would have been sold off season regardless.) He was clearing up the joint Burley/Dodd/Gorman mess and had to do it quick, he was employed to keep us in the league, the fact of the matter is it was mission accomplished. I firmly believe we didn't truly see what he was capable of as a manager in his short tenure here.

I'm creamy with a slight nutty edge.

Velociraptor.

Seems West Ham are in a quandry. Their owners assetts have basically dissappeared overnight. http://www.football365.co.uk/story/0,17033,8652_4257452,00.html Along with the Tevez affair this could really f*ck them over.

My ex thought there was something in it, she gave it a go when she was going through a goth phase when a teenager. Me though, never tried so couldn't say. My instincts tell me its a load of crap mind.

Just as likely to see 'Arry to the San Siro

No thanks, would rather not live in a natural resource deprived nuclear fallout riddled wasteland. I would love to have given the 70's a go. (3 day week notwithstanding.)

Turn it into Glue, Pet Food and Hot-dogs.

More then that, he is slightly German, he is eligable for their national team.

It's the english disease, use pace and strength to overcome a lack of skill...... Pace should not be an excuse here.

Jenas took his place, that's how.

Indeed, your academy did well to sign him up in the first place.

All northerners do. It fills time in the cold, cold nights.

:smt040 lolocopter.

Based on West Ham today, Green will not start. Nice to see Crouch get a recall, even if it is through his efforts for 'them.' How Jenas is in there I don't know.

Bingo! :smt037

The casuals will appear if we get success. Its not something we need to worry about right now, or in the near future. But its a nice thought nonetheless.

That's the three relegation places covered then!

Now wouldn't be a good time to say their attendance yesterday was better then our last two....

Just got back from the Ricoh (yes, that is how close I live to it) It was Boys against Men.

Good man, good video.

So nice to have an away game I don't need to travel to!!! My prediction is that i'll be half cut before kick off for a change, and for the score.... I don't want to jinx it, couldn't live it down if we lost, the lads I coach would rip the **** out of me.

Your logic is flawed. Relegation is offset by promotion.
