We could always exchange him for Berbatov ;)

We love the beeb

Beeb news says that City have offered £30m + for Berbatov!

That'd be bliddy hilarious

IN preseason, before the players knew each other at all?

Yep :p

Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronhildinio?!

Josh Low, who?!

Would you be moaning about 4-5-1 if we'd won 6-0?

Experiment's a good thing, we're never going to win the Carling Cup, so why not experiment in that?!

We need 2 points per game to go up, which means that we'd need 8 so far to average that... we're on 10 pts.

Well done lads, excellent point

Hmm, lets see...

Names in bold = didnt play last match

Names in italics = did play in last match.

Fleming, Eardley, Lomax, Stam, Hazell, Allott, Maher, Whitaker, Smalley, Taylor, O'Grady

Jensen, Duff, Kalvenes, Carlisle, Alexander, Caldwell, McCann, McDonald, Elliott, Eagles, Paterson

Latics reserves vs full Championship side basically...

Or 5 ;)

T'other way round I'm afraid. 33 divided by 6 = 1 red card every 5.5 games.

Thoughtt so :P

Bloody Latics webmaster people-things!

If Lee Hughes scores every 0.5 oof a game, hed get 2 goals a game on average!

Yeah, but the site's saying that he gives a red card each 0.182 games, which would give like 5 each game...?

He refereed 33 games in 2007/08, handing out 71 yellow cards and six reds - an average of one red card every 0.182 games.

That cant be right?!

From the official site (clicky)

Forbes was about 5 times worse that Hazel :P

Unfortunatly for me, Ive got his name on the back of one of my shirts *cringe*

No he isn't. You're not the old bloke who was sat behind me at the Millwall game who said we should bring on Stam because "all the young girls fancy him", are you?

Noooooooooooooooooo...

whos having ago at rubes,

 

all that was said is , he makes a few people nervous.

 

i take you are part of the hazell can do no wrong group.

Christ, thank you!

All I said was that I prefer Stam and that he makes me nervous!

I didnt say that we should sell him!

And when the flip did I ever have a pop at him for the OG?

As I said, that was bad luck!

Awwwwww, why didnt he trip in Beijing the other night?!

i agree, he does make me nervous, but he does not do tricks, he is sometimes just poor in possession.

 

he had a hiccup first day, but has improved like all the back 4, so i wouldnt change anything at the moment.

 

and didnt you know, if you are ging to abuse anyone in the back 4, it goes Eardley, Gregan, Stam and then maybe Rubes or Lomax if the other 3 are not playing

Not saying anything about the OG, that was just sheer bad luck :P

Never ever ever ever ever. Somebody ban this man from the messageboard so he can't spout anymore nonsense like this.

 

In Rueben we trust.

Just pointing out that Stam's better ;)

OK, so we're doing well in defense, but is it just me, or do you get nervous whenever Hazel gets the ball in his own box?! He does tricks for flips sake! One day he'll mess it up!

Someone tell him to stop, or replace him with Stammy!!!

Tell you what, Ive been in the NSM the last 4 seasons, which was s**t, so any noise is a lot for me atm ;)

I didn't think he was a bad ref, but did think he was weak; he couldn't get the freekick/advantage of play bit right at all. Let their defence get away with a bit of roughing up and holding. The "grapple tackle" on O'Grady was unchecked.

 

Not the best, but I've seen far worse.

Didnt play advantage?! Didnt you notice him ignoring the liner for our 3rd?

Hope they stay up now ;)
