****ing hell, he's on the wind up. Can't believe you lot keep taking the bait. I mean he's at it in every thread yet there are always people taking him seriously.

I'd probably go with 4-5-1 against Leeds. Drop Connolly and Antonio with Mellis and Waigo coming in. Keep Antonio and Connolly for the last 30 minutes, bit harsh on Connolly who's been our best player over the last month or so but I think we need the extra man in midfield at Elland road. If we go 4-4-2 then I think it's got to be a Thomas/James right hand side.

Fixed... Lets just hope Pardew doesn't go all Burley and drop him after Christmas ala Rasiak.

Perry has been a lot better than Jaidi since he came into the side, would be very harsh to drop him.

Norwich do a lot of deals for familys and have done for the last 10-15 years, now even in league one they're seeing the benefits of those deals. We need to be more creative with our marketing and pricing like Norwich imo.

Sounds like they went the wrong way about it but there where times yesterday where I thought a 4-5-1 might have been the way to go, we struggled to maintain possesion and prehaps an extra man in midfield might have helped. In the end Pardew was proved right in sticking with the 4-4-2, no manager no matter the run of form should be unquestionable however.

Best 1m we've spent in a long time.

Can't see Kevlin getting back into the side anytime soon. Bart commands the area and distributes the ball a lot better than KD and doesn't seem to have the same wobbly moments in him like Kelv.

I think it's probably got something to do with the switch from 4-5-1 to 4-4-2. We're probably more effective now but obviously don't have the extra man in the middle to exploit teams. Our first goal was well worked after keeping the ball for a while. We've got it in us, just need a little bit more composure playing from defence, a centre half who can pass a bit alongside Jaidi would be perfect.

You can't, was a drop kick.

Got a couple of kids as well, what a complete ****.

Says it all that we can play so **** and still score three. Need to up our performance for the next two games, with Pardew in charge I'm sure we will.

All the pressure will be on Leeds, compared to them we've got nothing to lose. If we can beat Norwich then we've won five on the bounce, loads of momentum going into the game and I would be expecting a win.

Thomas at right back with Lloyd just infront, keep the right side tight and do our attacking down the middle or through Lallana.

Poortvliet didn't sign any of our players, Lowe did all the buying and selling last season. Poortvliet just worked with the players.

We where allready qualified, doesn't count ...

Certainly something to look forward to then.

Pulis, Forecast and Molyneux are a special kind of ****. The sooner we get rid of those three the better. We probably won't be able to give them away, they really are that bad. Might be worth cutting our losses and just paying them off at some point.

Went up through the play offs, would have won the league by two points if it wasnt for the point deduction. Saganowski got 43, Lambert 25 and Lallana 20. After five games in the CCC i'm in the play offs, should get promoted again this season. IN Zavon Hines Saha Whitbread De Laet Plessis Muniesa De Gea Boa Morte Ki-Hyeon Shawky Barnes Silviu Lung jr Current team: Saha - Saganowski Boa Morte - Shawky - Schneiderlin - Barnes Smith - De Laet - Whitbread - Gillbert Silviu Lung jr Subs : Lambert, Lallana, Ki-Hyeon, Davis, Kuffor, Mills and Plessis

Anything over 1000 would be a decent turn out for a game over xmas, not easy to get to with all the train work going on either.

He's retired. That means he's taken a big insurance pay out and ended his foorball career, to play football again he would have to give that money back. It just isn't going to happen, if there was even a slight chance he would play again he would still be at West Ham.

If it's just a lads night then there will be drinking so they're probably having to wait for a free weekend?

I never rated Giles Barnes, he got a lot of hype because he was young and English. Never really got the fuss myself. Now he's crocked we shouldn't go anywhere near him.

I'm getting some shin pads and a new SDS drill. Exciting times ahead.

Cheers for the ideas. Have retrained Lallana to an AMC / FC so should be able to hold out untill January. Just beat Banbury 8-0 in the FA Cup, Lambert got a hat trick and 9.5/10.
