My irrational like in recent years is De la Cruz. Always thought he took an unfair amount of stick.

Remember being in the North Stand when he scored 'that' goal against Sheff U having carried the ball for most of the pitch. Went oxf*rd mental when it went in.

Cummins confirmed on Chelsea site. Permanent deal.

His crossing was excellent. Needed Kitson to be on the end of them to be honest. His cross in the first half for Lita was spot on. Unfortunately Leroy headed straight at their keeper though!

TBM The signal keeps being lost - great start to the Setanta service

could be a problem with the receiver - bushes/trees growing in the way of the dish, etc.

Not sure you can blame setanta. It's been fine for me so far, not a problem.

One of my favourite days of the summer is here on Thursday (is it 10 or 11 o'clock?), fixtures for the new season. I want the following No long midweek away trips A home fixture to start with Having the "big 4" spread out unlike last season It'll be wrong, but i reckon it's Everton away 1...

It pains and embarrasses me to admit it now, but I had serious doubts about whether Little was going to make the grade in the premiership. I thought he'd be one of those Coppell could probably look to replace. What's worse, Murty was another. I know, I know. I am not worthy........... I'm with you ...

Gunnarsson proved to me tonight that he can take Sidwell's slot in midfield in/when he leaves.

The blokes work rate is incredible and showed again that he can attack aswell as defend.

My man of the match with Oster a close second.

Row E seat 321 had shocking views. I assure you of that!

mydak i just love themusic answer

Yeah, wonder if Motorhead on saturday was his doing.

Whatever the players want to use to gee themselves up is fine with me!

If they want to come out to Motorhead then let them dammit!

New team photo is on the OS but what the hell is going on with Harps, Kits and Murts!

Marcus is an excellent stopper with good positioning and effective communication. The only thing that lets him down is his distribution Your right there! We've got to be careful in the premiership, can't keep giving the ball straight back to the opposition keeper everytime. Teams who can keep hold ...

What's annoyed me about this whole thing is John Mad said that 60k wouldn't pay for a players wages for a month (or something along those lines).

So rather than taking the 60k he would rather settle for nothing.

May not sound like a lot of money but 60k is 60k!

Not keen on the front of the shirt at all, looks alright from behind though!

It also says our budget is £10million.

The Times said last week pur budget was £7 million. I wander where the extra £3 million has come from?

Although it's all paper talk, I'd imagine 7 million would be a closer figure. (about 6 mill now with Seol).

I waited till the prem badges offer had ended to order mine 'cos I didn't want them on my shirt. If I'd known they'd arrive not-attached I would've got it sooner!

Hate to say it but depends whether Sidders is still with us!
