At least he's saying the same thing I'm thinking, now I just need to understand why we paid quite that much for him. I hope the deal's got a "He turns out to be crap" clause in it but somehow I doubt it. Oh well. Here's hoping.
Howay Dio lad, let's have a bit of optimism for the New Year. At least he's trying to change things for the better and let's face it, our defence can't get much worse. Let's have a beer and make our New Year's wish for a massive unbeaten run in all competitions.

Hey, I'm the optimist who thought we could have had Ledley King if we'd offered enough
No arguments here. If we play with the attitude we did on Wednesday the rest of the season then A. we'll win a lot of games and B. I won't care as much when we don't.

You couldn't have wished for that *BEFORE* you played Arsenal, could you, oh no!

I was wishing it before we went on a one-win-in-ten run! Didn't do any good though! But New Year's is always a time for optimism, so I'll try again!

Jesus, we're all over these bastards - even with Alonso going off.
But the game is being murdered by that weedy fuckbag Mike Riley. The cunt was standing about ten yards away from that dead-cert handball, he moved his whistle up to blow for a penalty, but then bottled it.
A compelling, competitive game which is in danger of only being remembered for weak refereeing.

Alonso broken ankle. Bad bloody luck your lot have, Sickers
Please beat Chelsea. Jose Mourinho is alternatively entertaining and very, very annoying. His latest quotes about Arsenal having a better schedule and the lack of cover in his £200million plus squad made me hate him again.
Fucking *well* pissed off. Another key player out for the rest of the season.
Chelsea weren't that special at all. If Mike shitting Riley wasn't so spineless I reckon we'd have built on the momentum of a penalty.
The real sickener about that kind of game-turning decision is that there's no punishment for the referee involved. Riley just blunders on his merry way, smiling and never feeling the need to concede that he might have fucked up. But, recently, Rooney gives another player a shove and gets retrospectively banned for three matches.

Not seen the game due to last night's/this morning's festivities. Saw some details on the teletext. Deflected Cole goal is disappointing enough but to lose Alonso with a break ... Cant believe it ....
Winehaus imports wines from South Germany. The Baden-Wurttemberg region makes dry reds and whites, and with its warmer climate, stylistically has much in common with Burgundy.
Cant believe it ....
