Yeah, let’s say any 3 of England, Portugal, Spain, Belgium and Brazil make the quarter finals…that’s most of our squad still playing in Qatar the week before the 4th round of the league cup! Still, gotta beat Chelsea first and worry about it later!

Even if we beat Chelsea, I don’t think we’ll have enough players fit/available to play the 4th round…it’s 2 days after the World Cup final! Most of our squad will likely either still be in Qatar or not long returned…!

Good luck with that, it’s a grass runway so only lightweight aircraft can land there. His luxury private jet will be too heavy! Unless he’s in a chopper of course, then he’ll be fine!

Your comparison to job interviews just doesn’t hold up - a company who interview you and many others owe you nothing, you’re just some one that applied for a job, they interviewed and didn’t fancy. This is about people who have an affiliation to an organisation for 20, 30, 40+ years and yet are...

Agreed. The ballot is pot luck, so I can accept loosing out. But not even being told just stinks. That said, I do think it would have been fairer to do this all on loyalty points. I have 16500, am I in the top 10000 seasoncard holders out of 35000? Maybe, maybe not. If not, at least I know the...

Me and my dad have been season ticket holders since 1999, 16500 points each. My dad also had a season ticket in the 70s too. No email, nothing. Fair enough it’s a ballot, I wasn’t expecting to be successful, but I think is disgusting they’ve not even let us know. Total lack of respect for blues...

Lol, very nice.

Have I missed something? Other than Bournemouth last week and in part against Sevilla when have we play 4-4-2 this season...?! We palyed "4-4-2" out of necessity in these two games to try and add some pace up front along side Bony. And let's be honest, it wasn't a rigid 4-4-2 as Sterling was...

The only way we'll top that is if its 3-1 after 88 mins, then we get 2 back in 4 mins to make it 3-3. Then, with 30 second to go, Sergio goes down in the box and penalty is given. 93:40 on the clock and Sergio nails it in the bottom corner for 4-3, and its all over. I imagine only 20,000 would...

I can vouch for this. I sit in 126 behind our dugout. Kompany was on the touchline waiting to come on, Yaya came over and offered the armband to Kompany, seemingly out of respect that he is the club captain. Kompany took if from Yaya and put it on. The photo in the Mirror is unfortunate, this...

Fixtures for December and New Year were announced on 6th October last year and 9th October the year before. I would expect them imminently... Arsenal early kick-off on Saturday would be ideal for me, or early Sunday. Cheap train tickets are available now for this and Watford away in the next...

Indeed, we're not debating how shit or not shit Bony is, we're trying to point out that the amount of minutes played is far more relevant than appearances. As someone pointed out earlier, someone could have 100 appearances for a club but each appearance could be 1 minute at the end of each game...

But we're only 8 games into this season, and Jovetic spent most of the 13/14 season injured. For the 14/15 season where Jovetic was available most of the season, Bony only had 6 months with us. His stats for 14/15 are miles better in the 6 months he was with us than Jovetic's stats over 12...

I don't personally like stats because they don't tell the full story in my opinion. But, considering you like your goals to games stats and are disputing the goals to minutes stats, I thought I would present to you the following while also taking note of your comparison between Bony and Jovetic...

No trains over the Easter weekend Piccadilly and Euston, including Monday 6th <a class="postlink" href="http://www.virgintrains.co.uk/updates/route-improvements/spanner/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.virgintrains.co.uk/updates/r ... s/spanner/</a> This may be worth...

Well done. The best post I've read on here for a long, long time. Couldn’t agree more with anything you've said. Of all that, my biggest gripe and the one that makes me so angry is Karim Rekik. This lad is a young, left-footed centre half who has gone on loan to a Dutch club of massive stature...

Couldn't agree more. Yes Arsenal played well at times, but their two goals were set pieces resulting from poor defending. They defended well more importantly, by their standards recently, but we allowed them to play. We took the ball off them in possession so many times and did nothing with it...

Agreed, it does seem to be random. Having said that, for the last 3 always I've bought (West Brom, Everton and Chelsea), it's given me seats in the first 6 rows every time! Good if you want to get on tele but crap if you want a decent view of the game! Only for Stoke this morning did it give me...

Milner. His work rate and effort is unrivalled. May not have the skill or football brain of Nasri but his work ethic is enough for me. Nasri is a skilful player but I find myself frustrated by him a lot. He has had a decent season so far, but if I had to choose... To be fair, why are we...
