oh and well done hearts v spurs last week
credit where credit is due , hearts were brill and it shows how good scottish football is well done .

maximus

Lets face it maximus if celtic and rangers had the money the top epl clubs did they would be a major force.my second team celtic have a massive following,that plus some money would see them being massive

ste liverpool

What is it with "my second team" i have one and one only where i was born , just because my great uncle play for leeds or my grandads brother lived in dundee , doesnt mean i will follow them
yes celtic and rangers have massive following , but what about the rest?

maximus

Hearts tried to play attacking football against Spurs,with two up front and with wingers.We knew Spurs were the better team.But there new managers tactics were pathetic.Jim Jeffries would have played 4 1 4 1.And they might have only lost 3 0.Also why are people trying to turn it into,a Scotland V England thing?Hearts only have one full Scottish international,Andy Webster.Who has not saw a squad in about 2 years.And was not match fit in that game.He got injured in the first game of the season.And was rushed back to play in that game.

Ye second team thing bit conflicted on that one ive been a hibee for many many years now but being here in scotland you do kind of pick teams around the world to follow eng liv, spa,real so on it makes our season a bit more ifor nteresting were onlyhalf a dozen games in and yet again yet another season o rubbish football over the hill euro rejects and no trophies,no teams at all doing well in europe,i even wanted hearts to win we need more euro places and thats not happening so u c we have to look elsewere for european euphoria, couse i cant c hibs doing well colin no good, bringing back players that have all ready ian murry need i say more sproule, his hattrick against rangers first stint at the club when we pulled him from irish opscurity, liverpool champ le pl,, n hibs top three,, real win champ league, that would be kool

Was anyone else wanting hearts to draw sion both chairmen as mad as hatters could have had a sword fight at half time

over 90% of Sunderland fans want Steve Bruce to be sacked and Martin O'neill to be brought in.Bruce will walk if he can't win over the fans in the next 3 games

How the donald duck would you know that 90% ? and martin o`neill wouldnt want to run a crap team

maximus

At least there in the prem

At least we have been in the prem

At least you're not now maximus

Blackpool are so great,that there trying to sign more players of the Rangers bench.Las year it was Beattie,and this year its John Fleck.How about them bringing through there own youngsters.And we can keep Fleck?

Martin O'Neil almost became Sunderland manager before Roy Keane. They discussed a part time contract as his wife was sick but then AV came in and it was close to his home. O'Neil apparently followed Sunderland as a kid, don't know why.

Yes, we do know why - because Portsmouth are a shining example of everything that is wrong with football in this country. I'd even make a case for them being a good example of whats wrong with society. Want, want, want but not prepared to work at it or spend within their means.

nothing to do with being a sc**mer then i suggest you look at your own clubs finance's for the past few years, does'nt make good reading, hardly a shining example remind me how many points did you get deducted for being such a well run club......

For the past few years saints have been one of the richest and best run clubs

Can anyone tell me if Alan Smith will be left out of the nufc 25 man squad? If Gradel buggers off to Wet Spam maybe we (lufc) could afford Smithy on loan?? :-/ (ducks custard pie)
What do you reckon ed? {Ed001's Note - I don't think Grayson wants him to be honest, not now it is known how much it would cost to have him on loan.}

Fair point but do you think he'll be left out of the 25 man squad at nufc? {Ed001's Note - actually I think he will only be left out if he does go, they have spaces left so may as well register him just in case.}

Thought you'd say that

Young premier league defenders looking
for experience welcome at Ipswich.
Managers loaning need not worry they will
get plenty of practice and guaranteed
start

Loving the ipswich fans that were giving it the big one on stockdale joining them
You're welcome to him ha ha ha

Stockdale's not the problem - You see the tripe in front of him??

what is clear so far this season and its very early but arsenal and chelsea both need fresh blood,arsenal need experienced players and not some young french player who maybe good in a couple of years,both clubs will go for mata,its believed mata is set for chelsea,eden hazard for arsenal ?? liverpool look solid without being anything special,suarez is their main man and if liverpool dont finish in the top 4 ,i think he will be chased by city,chelsea and offers from madrid,samir nasri deal to city has stalled and sneijder has rejected a move to city,nike who sponsor sneijder and united are in on the deal and its not all lost,sneijder could still be off to united,united do need a stronger midfield,city look very strong,de jong and kompany are key,their defence wouldnt be the same without them,spurs need a striker,but adebayor? the man who thinks he is good enough to play for real madrid and diarra? who couldnt get a game at chelsea,arsenal,real madrid.
