Thank you indeed.

Does Alan Pardew deserve to be in such company?

Would expect a priority system based on league cup attendance/season ticket status.

Lads and ladies: I applaud you all.

I'm going to say something: George Graham.

Well, you've had worse evenings.

Wow-wow-wow. Shane Long. A season of profligacy forgotten in an instant. Why take it into the corner when you can leather it in and change tension to euphoria!?

Oh my f**king days.

Clear corner. Bad call from the ref, but I do not care. And well played for the foul Oriel. This has been nothing if not professional.

No remorse for the time-wasting. memories of the 2003 Cup Final among others.

Josh Sims, former Portsmouth youth...... Errrrrrrr, some mistake?

Sims on. A forward outlet. Would have gone for Clasie personally.

Oh this tension. It means so much more to us then it would you Liverpool. Come on.

This match is insane.

Oh christ!!!! What a clanger/save!!!!!

Hope Yoshi was just 'making the most' of that fall.

So far so good.

That foul on the Rat after he was bundled...... Totally worth it. Good work Davis on he shot.

Right. Lets f**king do this.

A reasonable bid for Maguire may make headway, they seem to be in full asset-strip mode.

MOTD2 took Yoshida as being offside and interfering with play for the dissallowed goal. For the penalty, it was just taken as it happened.

Didn't miss that one! Ugh, offside..... Somehow.

Godspeed Stephens.

Playing devil's advocate: The higher we go and more we achieve the more difficult it becomes to find available/affordable players of an ability to actively improve our first eleven? 20m is a massive amount, but when players like Ighalo command anticipated fees of 17m, 20m for a French international CB in his mid 20's does not seem entirely incomparable.

Hoping our strikers finally click, the chances we create someone is due an absolute ****ing.
