The worst thing about the Manchester derby injury time fiasco yesterday was Fergie sharing a joke with the 4th official when United scored. What did he do, tell him to get his mate to blow the final whistle ?

Having walked past just as the Yeovil fans had clambered over the barrier up onto the road one of them was shouting at his mate to get away, but he wasnt having any of it and wanted to go back for more ! All very sad and stupid. The police officers stood between the railings and the pub were quite frankly pathetic, they just stood there and did nothing.....at worst they should have escorted those Yeovil fans away for their own safety, at best they should have made some arrests.....but they were like statues !

Well having seen that I have changed my mind about the first.....i thought at the time Saga did the old Swan Lake routine.....but best I get down to Specsavers I reckon

A thread of ridiculous statements and assumptions just gained another one !!

Looks good.....just hope it doesnt fall victim of some mindless morons with a black spray can !

I think he will be at his best if he just stands in the middle and gets his head to everything that comes into the box. When he was a third of the way up the pitch it seemed to take him a lifetime to get back into position.....in fact a couple of times he turned in installments !! But having said that, he's bound to be rusty and I think he will prove to be a great signing.

It really defies belief doesn't it ? I thought he looked like he will be a handfull for most defences in this league.

Echo web site has the info - AP says he is about 3 weeks away. Now I really hope this proves to be true for two reasons - the most obvious being that he looks a fine player and his experience helps the others, the second being that it will shoot down in flames all the drama queens who shouted "conspiracy - career over - they aren't telling us, blah blah blah"

Quite.....I havent watched the Skate loving bar stewards for years now. The only decent one is Andrew Pate....he should move to the BBC

Forecast, Lancashire, Pulis and Thompson...........i know its four but hell why not. If only three keep the goalkeeper.

we would...................but why oh why did he leave Papa until injury time to come on ?

leave him til injury time......................ridiculous

you'll be safe

To be fair if you are listening to a game where the opposition are all over us its not rocket science to work out a change or two may be required

Its too early, we haven't got to the 85th minute yet !!!

as soon as we let one in panic sets in...................we have seen it time and time again !

This isn't the plaice for that sort of talk........

Spot on...........every team takes time to gel no matter who it is, lets see where we are after 12 games, not 6 !

He was better than Jake Thompson. Towards the end several times James and Spiderman had the chance to pass to him and didnt bother. I can understand why.

Well said......6 games into a completely new regime and set up and already the shots are being fired. The team is still being built (2 new players sat in the stands yesterday) and gelling, and sorry but this takes time in any sport or occupation for that matter. To realists this was always going to be the season of steady re-build readying ourselves for an onslaught next season.

Well done Alan I mean you cant argue with that....alledgedly....can you ?

From all the problems that surrounded him with refusing to play for Wolves when they were relegated from the Prem a few years back I dont think, even without a club, he would lower himself to play in Div. 1. Would love to be wrong and have him here but I cant see it. If we were in the CCC then yeah, maybe, but not Div. 1

Indeed.....nothing like a typical journalists soundbite is it ? So he tried to kick the ball out for a throw in and failed...........oh brother !

umm.....i would rather he had given the names of the established England players who were reluctant to pass to him on his debut to be honest !!

Well he wont be playing Saturday if he has been picked for the Polish squad's World Cup Qualifier. Anyone know if he is in the squad ?
