Shame, it looks like he's leaving on a free in the summer...
I'd flip a table and shout angry words at the arsenal board even though they cant hear me.
Then flip another table when they fail to replace him with someone of equal caliber and instead chose to use the money for a nice holiday in the land of economic stability.

He played as the lone striker I think he'll sign a new contract.

It just makes me laugh Walcott starts to fulfill his potential when his contract is close to expiration. Funny that.

Though I would say Arsenal would be the best place for him.

At least Fergie didn't physically assault the ref, did he Mr Pardew ?


Mr Pardew ?

Mr Pardew ?


I said "At least Fergie didn't physically assault the ref, did he Mr Pardew ?"

Mr Pardew ?


Newcastle fans - Imagine a manager physically assaulting a ref/linesman. That would be terrible, wouldn't it ?

Wouldn't it ?

Hello ? Is this thing on ?

Pardew was punished for it and apologised. How come Fergie wasn't punished for holding up the second half by berating every official when anyone else would have been? Like Lambert was? Hello? Anyone out there?

*crickets*

Pardew didn't have a go at Fergie at all, certainly not to any extent which should have provoked such a little temper tantrum.

Exactly what I thought too. Here's a .gif of that goal btw.

Can anyone smell the bitterness in this thread?

*feedback from mic*

Anyone? Hello? Is this thing even working?

Anyway, is there any word on what/who RVP's message was about?

Also, holy crap, that Arsenal-Newcastle match. Well, it was a 'match' for the first 85 minutes... then it devolved into a massacre. Props.

I am not able to smell anything from my computer.

But that goal.
It's mindblowing and Demba Ba is going to be a bargain for whoever gets him.

And whatabout that first goal.
That was Henry-esque.

Clearly Fergie hasn't been punished because he totally owns the referees, the FA, UEFA and FIFA, who are all completely biased towards Man Utd as every Newcastle, Liverpool, City, Chelsea and Arsenal fan knows.

He's not been punished because he's a bully and a cheat who uses his position to lean on people. His recent outburst isn't 'mind games' however, it's just him losing his rag and making a fool of himself.

If Fergie managed any of the clubs you listed and acted in the manner he has over the past few years, Man United fans woudl absolutely fucking hate him.

To an extent it's the FA's fault - he behaves the way he does because they've let him get away with it for so long.

QPR need to invest in the youth.

Speaking of youth Manchester City's EDS plays really badly in the U21 Premier League.
Although their team is made up of a lot of players who could play for the U18s so I guess its not that bad.
There are a lot of talented young kids playing for them like Marcos Lopes he is like a 16 year old Portuguese David Silva.
I think he might make his debut for City next season if he keeps playing the way he does. His link up play around the box is amazing.

Real Madrid Castilla has some really nice young talent and I hope we see more of them playing in La Liga games this season because we seriously have no chance of beating Barca in the league.
Denis Cheryshev and Jese Rodriguez are probably my two favorites from the Castilla.
Cheryshev played against Alcoyano in the Copa del Rey and created 2 chances before getting subbed off in the 60th minute he's really impressive.
Jese Rodriguez is talented but I don't know if he'll break into the first team anytime soon since he plays on the left wing and we all know who plays there.

Looks like we're on the verge of signing Dubuchy, which would be a great addition. See Demba Ba's multiple and competing agents are trying to whore him around everywhere without our permission. Looks like the 7.5 million is the tip of the iceberg though, with agents fees, a demand for a 4 year, 80kpw contract and loyalty bonus pushing it up to more like 20m. Plus he'd be unlikely to pass a medical. I think the only team stupid enough to come close to the current package the agents are asking for is QPR and he seemed to turn them down last week as beneath him.
