hey mate, are the jerseys still going at 31 pounds a piece?

i completely agree; looking at the replay, the dive was ridiculous and almost comic. From his position, he could well have had lashed the ball at goal anyway. As for the general performance, first half was terrible, but the second was great. We really need to be much more consistent now. On the positive side, it looks like last week's goal has done wonders for MGP's form, gray continued to do well, and savage was very good as well.

to be fair to hughes, he was probably banking on that midfielder being reid.

I think your friend meant 'coloured' literally. If so, it's michael GRAY, with the pun on his surname as it is phonetically identical with the colour 'GREY'. If however your friend meant 'coloured' as in coloured skin, then marlon broomes is probably your best bet.

Very admirable USABlue, i salute you.

Rovers 1 (Gamst) Fulham 0

Home: i'm torn between 1 and 3 actually. 3 looks kinda minimalist/modern, while 1 recreates to some extent the kit we had in one of our most successful periods. i think i'll go for 3 though, but it was close. Away: 1 again looks very decent. If it was to be polled against any other option but 3, i'd definitely have gone for it. But, given the eternity we've waited for red/black halves, surely surely its got to be 3? 1 could be a third kit, but i hope we keep the red/black halves for good.

what about the dive under the challenge of sol campbell at OT in the game that ended arsenal's record breaking unbeaten run?

i thought he had a decent game, but not outstanding. certainly chelsea could have had 3 men sent off. i counted 3 clear elbows from their players on man u players' heads; geremi on giggs (i think), carvalho on rooney, and of course drogba on vidic. the first two might be debatable, but how drogba did not walk i will never know.

your the champ stuwilky! how long did that take you? was it off your head or did you refer to the team charts?

hernan hereidarsson (sp?), david dunn, francesc fabregas

do you mean for good or this season?

rovers 1 (gally) spurs 1

straight swop for finnan and they can have him in my opinion. but if he were really that hapless, perhaps benitez might throw in warnock as well?

Oops. Cultural insensitivities i guess... although Singapore's a commonwealth nation too, we don't actually 'celebrate' remembrance day here so i havent actually heard about it... till now. Thanks for the link too, cn174.

1.) sorry for being ignorant, but i was wondering who the minute's silence was for? couldnt find information about this elsewhere so i thought i'd ask you. 2.) noticed that about bentley too; i thought he's been a bit too selfish this last two games. 3.) I actually thought riley had a pretty good game, or at least better than i expected. all 4 of our yellow cards were deserved, and tugay should have got one for kicking ronaldo as well. riley also let benni off when it looked like benni was going to talk himself into a red card, and riley let the wall off for a second encroachment.

personally, i'm not convinced by Peter. His temperament seems suspect, and he does not really impose himself on the game anyway. the only bright spark is that he does seem more willing to take his man on than MGP but that's about it. for the spurs game, i think he'll start, but i'd rather see bentley shifted to the left and gally given a start on the right.

personally, i thought nonda was very good in the first half, but faded in the second. I attribute it to him not being fully fit yet, but the way he held the line was very very good. There some balls which were simply long punts up front without any obvious target, and he managed to kill most of them dead and make something out of it. Give him some time, i tthink he'll come good.

midfield is our biggest problem at the moment. Mokoena simply isnt good enough to cover for the losses of both reid and savage. Next week its Spurs. I dont have good vibes about that game either. Looks like we're in for a long hard month until we get savage back to full fitness. I don't think that we'll get relegated, but i think that if we dont address this midfield problem as soon as january arrives, we'll be in trouble.

Is anybody else watching this game on TV with alan parry and brian marwood as commentators? Its been an absolute lovefest with man u for marwood. Everything they do is great, wonderful and superb. How can anyone, on watching the replay of emo's challenge on saha, which was shoulder-to-shoulder and completely fair, say that he was 'denying saha a goalscoring opportunity'??!?!
