i would question his professionalism every day of the week

overweight which doesnt help with his constant injuries and has done absolutely zero to work on the weak points of his game

as for being our leading pl goalscorer, so what. just look at how many games it has taken him.

gabby epitomises what is wrong with our club, lazy and just happy to pick up a shed load of money while contributing fuck all


can you believe this club extended his contract . oh dear

Maybe disable the option? Going back to transfers Sunderland agree £8.5m with Marseille for some guy called Wahbi Kazhr, I think we we're linked with him before the embarrassment at the SOL?

Don't worry, I am sure the board are working hard to try and sell a few more players before the window closes.

I see there has been a lot of interest from other clubs in Gabby......not. Just shows how what other clubs think of him, he must be getting old with all these niggling injuries he's getting or is it the extra weight he's carrying?

extra weight hardly helps his injuries, with his other off field problems this terms playing football has been a long way down his list of priorities this term. Dreadful professional and an appalling example to other young players at the club.

Is he really a dreadful professional?

One club player and never speaks ill of the club, gets very involved with charity work, and is our all-time top Premier League goalscorer?

I agree he's lacking in ability, but it seems harsh to question his professionalism.

I agree. What are these other off-field problems?

Well if we don't do anything today, we won't do anything tomorrow or Sunday so it'll be down to the last day. That's an awful lot of work to do in one day.

I really don't get it.
What's wrong with getting rid of the dead wood and parasite's in the club?

It's the not signing anyone better that is the problem. That and the fact that I strongly suspect they would sell better players too given any offers. Btw I think Gardner is decent and should be blooded ahead of next season.

How about getting rid of the deadwood AND signing a few players that could help lift us from the bottom of the table? Is there any pride left at the club?

Those results over Christmas have really fucked up this window. If we had a win or two things would look a bit more positive. The board have given up.

I'd be inclined to agree, but for the fact I'm starting to feel like we always have an excuse.

Look when we were on our arse and all we got was Sylla and Dawkins. Look the season after when Benteke was out and we got Grant Holt on loan, or last season when we took a punt on a kid from Spain.

There's always reasons why we can't do things, the same reasons don't seem to apply to our competitors unfortunately.

I don't believe that for one minute. Win 2 matches on the spin even now and we're right back in it. If anything even if we had those wins over Christmas you mentioned we'd still be here lamenting over our non signings right now. Basically they don't give a flying fuck about our Premier League status or the club in general.

The Sunderland and Norwich games killed us. Totally. Defensive Fuck Up after Fuck Up after Fuck Up.
