Surely somebody's mentioned why all this is happening to him. It's the 'tash, once he shaved it off it's all been downhill for him. Samson's hair, Souness' 'tash - the stuff of legend.

We officially rock

I think the guy is in love with Robbie Savage, he'll run up to him and push him down in the playground any minute now

He has a clause in his contract that if a Champions League team comes in for him he can go for £xm (an amount I'm not too sure about). With his performances this season he must be on the wish list of most top teams. Having said that I agree he does seem happy here, but the draw of more money and European football probably would be too much for the lad.

We won't be keeping hold of Bellamy for very long.

That's what the big money gets you

And you wonder why Hughes even bothers

Listening on the radio, we're creating nothing and they're putting in some dangerous crosses.

There are still tickets in the City end right?

....and the fact we bagged two more after the incident

Well, 'Bambi on Ice' was John Stead

They're a disiplined defensive unit who hit teams on the break with two quick, relatively skillful forwards. They're obviously well coached defensively and at set pieces - as I've said numerous times whilst Souness was in charge, you can teach monkeys to defend well (which made you wonder what they did in training!). It's dire football, but effective. They'll get found out by the more creative teams later on in the season, but they'll probably pick up enough points to stay in the top half come the end.

Surprised no-one has mentioned Emerton's shocking miss of the open goal from Bellamy's cross. I'm not having a go at Bret as he scored a screamer, I just think the sublime cross from Craig highlights his quality. Could any of our other strikers do that, I don't think so. We're a different team when he's on the pitch - we can play it on the floor, go out wide, pass through the middle, or simply bang it up to Kuqi/over the top. The problems he poses for the opposition is great to watch. As somebody has said, he's our Henry, just hope he can stay healthy. As for the game, well it was great wasn't it. I commented to my dad about the fact we can play the rough stuff and the silky stuff, not too many teams in the league can do them both. You've got to admire the job Hughes has done, he's made a very fit cohesive unit out of very average players with a few quality ones thrown into the mix (Tugay, Bellamy, Nelsen). Very impressed!

I'd like to nick Pennant off them, so I hope they go down

I was just about to quote that! It takes a certain something for an analysis to make me burst into laughter - this guy has clearly found it

Is it in Lawro's contract not to talk about Rovers on MOTD? I don't think he's said a word in our post match analysis (which is pitiful I might add without Hansen) for at least a fortnight. Watching the highlights again confirmed how soft Terry really is. Was the fairy even touched for his penalty? The Joe Cole challenge was also borderline red - there was no attempt to get the ball. A very harsh red mind, but I've seen them given. Did I mention Brad is past it?

We have about £2.50 to spend in the transfer market in January mate. Admittedly we once were a big spending team, but that's in the past. People do complain about the funds they have at their disposal, and yes it's partly due to jealously. It's also due to a Russian criminal ruining the English Premier League with his seemingly limitless pockets. I'm not even going to mention Moaninho, I think enough has been said about him already.

That'll be about £55m please

I'd love to have been fielding the questions: "Oh Jose, Jose, Jose, get over yourself you tw@t" It's not hard to win with £200m+ of football talent in your squad is it

It was Dickov for the free kick. He also was tugging at his shirt for Dickov's curling shot that went wide. Like I said, Terry is unbookable apparently

Is Terry not allowed to be booked? That's two yellow card incidents in the past ten minutes.

Jose Moaninho, Arsene "I didn't see the incident" Wenger, Steve 'Loyalty' Bruce, Any Referee, Any Linesman

Does Riley have a quota of cards to fill or something??

They'll probably make him pay too

Oh they're a human team, they've just got a ridiculous squad. Their sub bench is probably worth more than our entire squad. Having a shocking ref doesn't help - though the media are reporting it like they've run rampant all over us
