There's lies and then there's statistics.

Butch Wilkins - the master of the square pass- would have been near 100% If there were a statistic showing "telling passes" ......

[Stuart]

Thank goodness for Opta or we'd all be thinking Britton is better than Xavi!

[Stuart]

City v Spurs has really come to life. Four goals in 10 mins. Including a stunning finish from Bale to make it 2-2.

[Tom]

Poor first half now it's great I think city will win it though

Savic is shocking

[Stuart]

Could go either way.

[John]

Cracking game now.

Arsenal fans booing Wenger and singing 'you dont know what you're doing. f*****g disgrace!!

[Tom]

Not Premier League but could be pertinent to us if the "in the knows" are correct.

Portsmouth issued winding up order by HMRC.

I guess our worst nightmare s not worse owners than Venkys, it's no owners.

No-one wants to (or can afford to) buy a Championship club.

*Gulp*

Which is the fans have to put their legitimate grievances behind them during the game and help the team out.

Win or bust

Such is the situation Venkys have engineered, Bucky, it might be win AND bust.

True. But we need to make it as unlikely as possible.

Just a note on the African Cup of Nations, 8 games played, not one draw.

Senegal play the hosts Equatorial Guinea today.

http://www.soccerway.com/international/africa/africa-cup-of-nations/2012-equatorial-guinea-gabon/group-stage/

Diouf's Senegal lost their first game so if they lost this one, they would practically be out of this, perhaps a mathematical chance to win. I doubt if they would defeat the host nation.

I'd rank the favourites to win the tournament as Ivory Coast, Ghana and Tunisia in that order. Gabon as a long shot.

Cameroon, Egypt and Nigeria did not qualify, Nigeria not only suffers from social turmoil but their football federation has often had problems and been accused of corruption. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/16666474.stm That nation clearly has lots of talent, underachievers for various reasons.

[Tom]

Senegal look like going out early, could Ba be back to face Rovers?

Wouldn't be surprised.

[roverandout]

not only ba but also cisse, hows our defence going to cope with that and probably without samba too

[Tom]

Not PL but Bayern trolled their own fans today.

They announced a live press conference on facebook to announce a massive new signing, their fans got into a frenzy, the time of the announcement came and it was a marketing ploy nothing else.

Redknapp: I write like a two-year-old, can’t use a computer and I’ve never sent a fax, email or text

Suuuure you do, Mr. Redknapp!

jack wilshere out till christmas too bad kid is a gem

jack wilshere out till christmas too bad kid is a gem

And, sadly, made of glass.

[Hughesy]

Wilshere seems injury prone, strange considering Wengers takes them off after 70 minutes, even if they are the best player in the team
