Are you two done? Good.

Gunter doesn't even get in the team now, which is a massively damning indictment on his ability when he's being kept on the bench by Shaun Cummings.

Now is as good a time as ever to play Fulham, while Bryan Ruiz is out injured. In the seven PL games he's started this season, Fulham scored 16 goals. In the five games since he got injured a month ago, they've only scored 3.

Nolan was £45-50k, I think.

Er, it's blank... or perhaps that's intentional, because for "legal reasons", that's all they can say

Pavel Pogrebnyak will set a new record next season as the highest-paid player in Championship history, just edging out Nikola Zigic's £55k a week

To be fair, Neville's point was that 4-4-2 as a weaker side against a team that keeps possession as well as Arsenal is absolute suicide, not that the formation itself isn't suitable under certain circumstances. We've utilised it a few times this season with varying results.

Not sure you can necessarily take tonight's performance in isolation given the absolute car crash of an opposition.

£5 on Cazorla anytime and an Arsenal win at 4/1 £5 on Walcott anytime at 7/4 £5 on over 3.5 goals at 13/8 Tidy

Done and dusted tonight already

Is that the number of goals they're going to concede by the end of the season?

The difference between the two "performances" is that we looked reasonably well set-up but came up against a team playing very well and compounded it by making individual cock-ups. Reading just look hopeless from back to front.

South West Trains are running a Sunday service on New Years Day, so trains should be OK. BlueStar aren't running any buses, though.

Three years running... not even being subtle about it anymore, the greedy parasites.

They must have run out of sand in which to bury their collective heads by now.

They even managed to get the numbers wrong, surely they should have ordered 2010 to coincide with the club's founding year? They'd have been able to sell another 112 suits then!

I think they might have mentioned it but probably more as a "this is what we're looking at in the future" sort of thing rather than "loyalty points accrued can be used to claim discounts in the megastore immediately". Don't forget, the megastore had a full refit in the summer but that refit didn't include fitting any scanners for season ticket cards. They've only just had Chip and Pin installed, FFS

Looking forward to receiving my 15 loyalty points which I can't use for anything

If (when) this all goes tits-up, the trust won't have the backing of the fans to take the lead in the launch of a phoenix club. Considering all the usual activists are involved in this, that pretty much leaves nobody to pick up the baton.

Has anyone successfully reclaimed their £100 "deposit"?

And as a result it's in Chainrai's interests rather than the Trust's for the hearing to be adjourned because it takes the club closer to that next parachute payment... Yes, today was a massive win for the trust

Kelvin Davis, I assume.

Case adjourned until 2pm tomorrow

Ah yes, I remember that blog post from a month ago - chickens, roost, etc
