If we continue loaning out the squad without replacing them, we won't be able to name a bench.

I've been impressed with Davis in the last couple of games, this alteration in style really seems to suit his game - as he's the sort of CM who enjoys getting up and at you and winning the ball back. Technically, he's very good as well. I do like how we play, it's genuinely exciting - and you'd hope that continuing to play like this will eventually equal a decent return in points. Still very frustrated by our inability to hold out yesterday though, we were so close to breaking away into the mid-table pack.

I must admit, that is another bitter comment from MLT. No reason for that at all. Could have easily just said ''Yes, in a few weeks. Hope we can get a resolution'' - but no, he decides to go all sarky. I wouldn't be surprised if NC cancelled it based on that. I hope they do come to some sort of agreement here, because it's petty beyond belief.

He's quite clearly been keeping up to date with the latest porn via Utorrent...

It's not like that at all, is it? The majority recognise that Rameriz is a very talented individual, but have witnessed that he's not getting as involved in away games as someone of his talent should be. I'm still of the belief that he's not a player in away games for us, at this moment in time. I wouldn't write him off though.

All registered users now can. Think it changed a few weeks back. I won't be paying my sub next year, that's f'sure.

It's not, so safe to ignore!

Weird poster.

Their result today makes me more nervous. Teams as good as city don't often go more than 2 games without a win. They aren't a bad side, they're still packed full of quality and will likely have the toure brothers back next week. I'd bite your hand off for a draw.

No chance in hell. Doubt he'll ever play for England, not fashionable enough. Carroll will probably get a call up.

To be fair, we are getting results. We've only lost 3 games in the last 9 or so weeks. Just too many draws in there really.

Wigan, QPR, Reading in that order down Cardiff, Leicester and Watford up

At least we actually put some thought into who we signed, in terms of long-term benefits and potential re-sale values. QPR just had this massive scattergun approach, where they picked up anyone who could breathe with very little thought into age, potential and long-term benefits. Their transfer policy is a complete and utter mess, and it has proven that this approach simply doesn't work.

You're not down wit' the kids Turkish.

Still way too early to say. It was a massive gamble though

I'm happy to pull him out of the fire for a bit. Davis is better suited at the mo

We don't....ignore that mus-guided comment. We actually have 6 more points now than we did then.

You are an idiot. I said I'd heard lots about him, and not one of them was negative. I wasn't talking about our fans.

The first half did worry me a little. We looked a little unsure of what we were actually doing, players were playing passes too short and down blind allys. We did have a lot of possesion and (bar the goal) Wigan barley threatened, but then neither did we. It was a pretty hideous first half to watch. The 2nd half was positive though, the reaction of the players was what you want to see when you're down at the bottom. Don't lie down, jump up to the plate and fight till the end. We gave it a good go, and in the end threw it away which will grate me for a good few days yet. Plenty of positives from the 2nd half, but bits to be worried about based on that first half.

I was on about Forren...

I thought that was the case. About time too, as the first one was awful.

£3.5m actually, and he's injured at the moment. If you bothered to read the pre-match stuff, you'll read that in reality he's under-going a mini pre-season with us, as his season ended back in December and has done no training since then. Makes sense. Once he's fit though and gets his chance, I don't think we'll see him out of the team. I've heard lots about him, and not one negative.

This gets the thumbs up for me, every week I've used a stream from here. No pop ups, no adds, it just plays instantly. No buffering, no skipping...HD Quality. Looked fine on my 42" TV. Looks like there are streams of every PL game up on that site. Def. worth bookmarking! Not worth trying anything else IMO.

That's why people liked him.... Run around a lot, throw yourself into a few tackles - great player. When in fact, technically, he is utter dog ****e.

Exactly this, really. If we give up on him this season, we'll be looking on in 18months time thinking ''what if?''. He's genuine class, but not exactly the sort of player we need at this moment in time. For a club like us in our current position, we can't really sign the ''full article''. Our model is to buy young, potential and slowly build the team around it. Over time that will be rewarding to the extreme, but staying up this year is critical to it being a success. I still think we'll be ok, but today is still very disappointing as we were within touching distance of breaking away into the mid-table pack.
