adopted scouser

Funny that the players have to be english to represent England, but the man running the show can be from anywhere. Still, looking at the English alternatives, Gene Hackman should definitely get the job. McClaren's post match interviews are so hopelessly 'staged' it's untrue. Allardyce shoots his mouth off to quickly and would look ridiculous in front of the world's press.... Mike Bassett anyone ?

Spot on. People still bleating about the Cisse offside, and conveniently forgetting about the hand of Ped, or John Filan getting battered so we could equalise against Wigan. We've had a cracking season and 6th is still a real possibility, if only for the income. This season we have gained a little more respect amid the football fraternity, and shown a clean pair of heels to the likes of Bolton, West Ham, Charlton, Borough etc. Personally I'm chuffed to bits with this season's achievements, but people on here will continue to p1ss and moan.

No, see above.

The coiner of the much-quoted phrase was in fact White Hart Lane legend Bill Nicholson in his days as manager at the club, - and not Bill Shankly. Shankly's wordy take on the situation was in fact "If a player is not interfering with play or seeking to gain an advantage, then he should be." Which is completely different.

Peter Kay's on telly later.

Recent X-rays on his foot suggested a broken metatarsal, turned out to be a pie crust in his sock.

Grit your teeth

Rubbish, Liverpool are the better team so far. We haven't had a single shot anywhere near goal, passed the ball more times to a red shirt than a blue and white one. The goal was a con, but to be fair we haven't turned up yet.

Bugger

One Nil to Villa - Baros !

Bruce interviewed on Sky said he was glad to have some of his big players back for the derby, then Upson does his ankle in the warm up !

Rumour has it, no Kewell, Crouch or Stevie G. Still got a feeling we're gonna get egged.

Fife, I'm baffled. Why didn't you just google to here ?

Can't believe there are posters on here who think we can get into the Champions League, we have no chance at all. Our best result this season will be 6th and UEFA, and that in itself will be a terrific result for our little club.

Well done Accy (hardly surprising given the number of bloody scousers at the club these days Must have been a sign ever since that kid drank his glass of milk !

Arse Leading one nil at half time.

Sooooo Slowwww

Henry

I can see him now sitting in a deserted Ewood park, bobble hat on, Bovril in hand, then posting on the 'Old Gate Debate' thread. Today's turn out was the worse I've ever seen .....

It's true, look at the new shirts. Anyone Interested ? Glazers

It's at Fratton Park mate.

Bradford City, Bantams ?

That'll be the third one then !

Name 3 Premiership players whose names are connected with TV programmes?

5 minutes left, and more reason to believe we will get the 6th spot. Still one nil.
