if classism was cracked down on on here then most football threads would have about 3 posts

Was at St. James’ yesterday. Most ridiculous few minutes of football I’ve ever witnessed https://medium.com/@nystyr/match-report-newcastle-united-4-3-norwich-1a5724b8f372#.yiogik2cj

Rooney to come on, score a winner with his arse, and then start the next 200 games.

great assist

Savage absolutely jizzing himself at Rooney’s part in the goal. Completely ignoring Mata who actually opened up the defence.

Fellaini’s actually played really well. Loads of tackles and decent passing.

Thst was beyond perfect. Outplayed on their own turf by a club nobody’s ever heard of. Any quality at all in the final third and they’d have shipped a right few…and about 30,000 empty seats despite the clearly audible huge groups of schoolkids on freebies.

Giggs, Bruce and Moyes implicated in the bung stuff appaz. There’s definitely going to be something dodgy in the Donald Love deal at least

not surprised at giggs but impressed he’s got stuck in so soon after retiring

Pepe Mel and…Matsugaiya?

Are Watford the least memorable side that’s ever been in the Prem? All I am able to remember about them is that they wear yellow and the nicely spoken lad built like a tank plays for them.

I think if someone asked me to name the 20
PL clubs this season, I’d probably forget Boro.

(Just had a look at the table). Y’know, not even sure I could confidently name the three promoted sides last season.

Do you remember Reading for three years? Because I sure as he’ll don’t

I bet Giggs did that bung stuff cos he thought it’s what all managers did and it made him feel like one of them and one of the big lads

I must be in a camp of one but i like Watford under Mazzari. They seem to switch between formations quite a bit, like he’s done at former clubs, and they generally mix it up between direct stuff and quick counter-attacks. Their back five have all got a mistake in them as well, and i quite like that they’re a mixture of cast-offs from bigger clubs and other players only a club with a dodgy transfer setup would take a punt on. The stats say they’re the league’s fifth most exciting side so far at least.

I’d sooner have teeth pulled out than watch West Brom, Sunderland, or to a lesser extent Burnley (though they were okay to watch last time round).
