stoke looked awful. Although they do most weeks, tbh.

Well that was an unexpected bit of quality

It's a painful game to be honest. Atrocious lack of quality for a PL game.

We have been on this channel/link for the last 2 away games - http://socsportslive.com/pg/22 Best site I've found to be honest. Good enough to have in full screen on a 40" TV.

Off the top of my head... Reeves De Ridder Hammond Sharp Seaborne Hoskins Barnard

The people who say he's a show pony without an end product are absolutely spot on. The people who are sticking up for him are the guys who get excited by a little bit of pace and a few tricks, but give it a few more weeks, when he still hasn't actually done anything, and they'll side with the other views.

On another note, what a shame Heitinga wasn't playing for Everton at St Mary's. What a clown of a player he actually is these days. Used to be decentish.

Also, on another note, this result sends QPR even more into the mire.

2 god damn awful teams. Won by the not so god damn awful side.

Villa are so ****. How they've managed to let such a god damn awful team back into this game is beyond me.

But if they go down, so will Man Utd

You watch them rock, and rock from now on.

lol @ villa

It's all he ever seems to do. £35M for that sack of ****, unreal.

We weren't going to get every result going our way this weekend, so never mind. We keep doing our thing and there will be no issue. but boy, oh boy. How bad are WHU. Beyond anything I've ever seen at PL level.

Rubbish player.

This game is beyond bad.

I don't think Bologna were ever fighting relegation last season. They had a solid mid-table season and finished 8th I think, with over 50 pts.

Gaston Ramirez is a luxury player. When we're winning and comfortable he looks one hell of a palyer, but when the pressure is on - away from home in particular - he struggles and doesn't (yet) have the necessary mental or physical strength for those situations. In many ways, he's similar to Hatem Ben Arfa. When Newcastle were flying last year he was their star player, stand out every week. This year he's been in and out of the side with injury, and when he has played he has been noticeably poor. Certain players respond differently to adversity and it seems to me as if Ramirez doesn't quite have the mentality to deal with it. If we stay up this year and grow next year, he will start to show us the player he really is.

I'm pretty sure it's more a case of the linesman needing to learn the offside rule.

Wouldn't hope not. Too early for us. Need to stay up and have another year of adding to the squad.

Why? No need to change a thing.

Seems like Matthew Le Tissier enjoys making himself look a little silly.

To be fair, swings and roundabouts and all that, Jay shouldn't have had a penalty against Villa.

He's always been class. Even his pre-season debut against WHU all those years ago showed how class he was. Surprised he was ever doubted by anyone, to be honest.
