We had a bloke who came out at work, and then got all upset cause nobody gave a flying fuvk.

I think a centre mid 3 of cork/Davis , ms and victor look great on paper. The problem is then fitting Lambert and Osvaldo in the formation. Need a centre 3 to pressure SG and stop Liverpool playing through midfield. Personally , I'd go with Davis, behind one of Lambert or Osvaldo, with jwp and al as making up the 5.

I find the guy frustrating, he's obviously got talent but flatters to deceive. Too many little 5-aside passes and touches. Sometimes he needs to be more direct and shoot. Lack of pace is a problem and he does dive, which winds me up. Obviously captain because he came through the ranks and I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, provided other show leadership on the pitch. Personally I'm surprised he never seems to get dropped.

Agreed, it's got to be political that he's made captain. I don't go for all this NC picks the team, but I can think of no other reason he's skipper. Playing wise, he's a fanny. A 5-a-side player, all little triangles, and soft passes. Over-rated IMHO.

South today's football output is dire. Local radio and tv is an embarrassment, load of middle aged chumps . Im sure partridge was a reality show rather than a comedy. They need to get blokes talking about football who have half a clue, instead of idiots like husband. And dont get be started on Dave "what we dont want to do now is " Merrington. Taylor needs replacing with a decent milf as well.

I reckon my snap dragon would make a good "vision and awareness" coach, she always seems to know what im up to.

"to be fair he is a massive ******" lol.....

Personally, I reckon there was half a dozen Championship strikers who would have seen us over the line, and 2 or 3 that would have won us the league. He's really not that good, as last season proved.

Anyone would think we were mid table and went on a reading type run when we signed Billy. The fact is we limped over the line and his tap ins helped ,mind you , any half decent striker would have done the same. In fact had he been a better player, we'd have won the league. Missed peno Blackpool at 0-0 springs to mind.

If Mick Channon can play for the Skates, then Billy Sharp can play for Weds.

The minimum wage is a con job. How can you have a minimum wage that is set so low that you have to top it up with tax payers money? The minimum wage is good for employers, but a terrible deal for the taxpayer. It isn't a minimum wage, it's a welfare for work scheme where multi million pound companies get their pitiful wages subsidised by the tax payer. Now Labour bang on about a "living wage". Surely a minimum wage needs to be a living wage, why set a minimum wage that people cant live on? They wont campaign for an increase in the minimum wage because they know it may cost jobs, exactly the same argument that opponents made against it's introduction. By setting it so low Labour felt good about themselves and boxed the Torys in, business get subsidised Labour and the bloke on the wage doesn't care as it gets topped up. Everybody's a winner except the mug taxpayer.

Brown was a disaster for the country , incompetent even by labour chancellor's standards. Poured money into unreformed public services, neutered frank field, trashed our pensions, sold the gold at rock bottom price, set up the tripartite banking regulation, ran a deficit during boom years, in short a complete and utter **** up of a chancellor and PM. The pictures of him stalking mrs Duffy , hanging around in her garden whilst the worlds press filmed him, was the final nail in this clowns political career. I wouldn't let him run a bath let alone an economy.

If they could prove perjury beyond a reasonable doubt, then she should be charged with it. Its never going to happen in a "he said/she said" case like this. The more important question for me is , would he have faced charges per js

Has anyone who received " the call" received their tickets yet. Women told me they were being posted out Fri, but I haven't had them yet.

Just on SSN, bloke with team has spoken to Rickie. Said " RL is under no illusion of the task, knows Rooney, Sturridge and wellbeck are coming back in, Lambert also mentioned Andy Carroll when fit ". The guy really seems to have his feet on the ground and is no it going to let any disapointment get to him.

He wasn't talking about anyone in particularly, he was just saying that as a team we lacked a cutting edge. Seeing as 3 automatic starters who play in forward positions were missing, it's an entirely valid point. FFS, why is everyone so precious? Had Davie Moyes offered a swap Rooney or Wellbeck for SRL, or Rodgers said Sturridge for Rickie, who on earth would turn it down?

He only got his chance because of injuries What he's done is proved to Woy that if needed he won't let his country down. If he's needed again he'll get called up, but if everybody is fit he may miss out. He was never going to play so well that he made himself indispensable, the best he could hope was that Woy considers him an option. A freak set of circumstances opened the door for him, and he didn't let anyone down. However, he's down the pecking order. 6 months ago he wasn't even in the pecking order. He needs to really have a career season this year, he needs to be banging them in week in week out, which can only be good for us.

****ing hell, are you sure? Rooney has scored champions league hat tricks, has played his whole career in the top flight, has produced some great performances for England. He is a better international player than a guy who has played against Scotland and Moldova. You say about the 2 assists and yes they were good, but conveniently over look 2 simple chances he missed against the jocks.To throw your argue.ent back to you, what would you have said had Rooney missed those. The hype on here is unbelievable. RL has come in and played against 2 very average sides, he's looked at home in an international shirt and has done all that can be expected of him. But, Tuesday is a step up. He may make that step up with ease , and look the part, but Rooney has looked the part against top quality defenders. A bit of perspective needs to be applied here. He's battling for the Peter crouch role, with Andy Carroll. He is not and I doubt if he ever will be a better option for England than Wayne Rooney. Moldova and Scotland are at best championship standard, lets see him against better sides before going too overboard

How are they trying to wriggle out of it?

I'm sure he would have received a pay rise for becoming a "premiership" player. The fact is that we dont consider him a premiership player , and neither do 19 other premiership clubs. He has to face facts, he is a championship player on premiership wages. Therefore he has 2 options, sit out his contract ,not playing but still receiving premiership wages, or play in the championship on championship wages. The club have done nothing wrong here, they are honouring his contract. He has decided that money is more important than getting on with his career. When Tommy fourpast acted the same way, he got dogs abuse. Personally, I would be the same as The Don. I'd take it personally ,and even if it cost me money , I wouldn't subsidise an overpaid player to play elsewhere. **** him, let the supporters see what motivates him, if it was a Carlos kick-a-ball, im sure he'd be called a greedy barsteward.

I think Joe hart should get it, For keeping a clean sheet.

Blokes like Scott Sinclair, should look at Rickie and catch themselves on. Play regularly, even if its an "unfashionable" club and the doors open. Instead of ****ing around in man c reserves be could have been building an international career

A good game away in Kiev and I reckon if he stays injury free, he's gonna be on the plane to brazil

To be fair, had Lambert got 2 and not got motm this place would be in meltdown

That walker is dog shiete.
