Ooh Jimbo - I'd just come in and saw HESKEY in caps. Thought I'd moved into a different astral plane and he'd burst the net.

I know it didn't count and that, but Hutton's 'defending' there was, yet again, woeful.

We must be the only fans that don't want 5 minutes injury time.......

Bringing Heskey on is mindless. There is never an excuse for it when there is another squad member that can breathe.

When was the last time we won a game comfortably?  You don't have to be exact, just name the decade.

Blackburn 4-1 last season I reckon. Pires was brilliant.

I'd love to know whether the negative tactics come from AMc or from the player's fragile confidence.

No doubt people will moan about the goal (justifiably) but by the law of averages allowing stoke to keep pumping it into the box was always going to result in a chance.  Whereas we should have been concentrating on keeping possession.
