    Racist orgy shame caught on camera during Thailand end of season tour

    obviously, whoever is identified as making the racist comments needs sacking. anyone involved who isn't identified as making racist comments but was present needs "managing" out of the club imo. the worry is how this might affect the squad and of course Nigel Pearson's mentality and attitude...

    The annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2013 rumours thread

    nugent has a far better strike rate in international football than kevin doyle. neither is particularly relevant to either at the moment. nugent may not have been prolific in the last 30 games, but doyle hasn't been prolific during the last 2 years. have seen kevin doyle a fair bit for wolves...

    Confirmed Transfer Dean Hammond

    good stuff, we needed another body in central midfield; getting someone with his experience is a bonus, from what the soton fans are saying he sounds like a no-frills central midfielder, major drawback seems to be lack of pace but you don't need that for the 'neil lennon' role. seems like we...

    Confirmed Transfer Ben Marshall to Blackburn

    marshall had a few great moments, but ultimately he didn't affect the game enough, wasn't quick, couldn't beat his man, offered nothing defensively. looked to have great potential when he signed, turned out to be a slightly better version of paul gallagher. also didn't really carve out a...

    Post Match Leicester 3 Birmingham 2

    i think the opposition are obviously more aware of knockaert than they were at the start of last season. he's clearly extremely gifted (his performance vs huddersfield away was absolutely stunning, not just his goals but his whole game, was unplayable), but he's immature and makes bad decisions...

    Pre Match Carlisle United v Leicester. League Cup

    he's only ever a booty call away from Vicky the vixen though. Filbert's a playa, 99 problems but a bitch ain't one.

    Pre Match Derby (A)

    i agree with most of that, i'd like us to go with schlupp at left wingback, but that's how i'd like us to line up at home. we dropped a lot of points away from home last season though, and we need to be harder to beat, so if we are unchanged today i won't mind that too much. i'd rather see us...

    Is anybody else worried?

    yeah, pearson's definitely a fool, in the three full seasons he's managed us he's only managed one title win and two play-off finishes. no way does he deserve another chance. we should get martin allen or rob kelly back in, if we can't get wenger or fergie. i honestly can't really remember...

    Transfers - Are we being left behind?

    i'm more concerned about reading than wigan to be honest. wigan will lose more players in all probability, and coyle was crap at bolton and fluked a play-off win with burnley having finished 6th. don't rate him at all, just talks a good game. it's crazy to say wigan are certs to challenge/we'll...

    Transfers - Are we being left behind?

    hopefully we, like cardiff last year, will have benefitted from having a settled squad that is gelled and is more than the sum of its parts. as said, there's lots of 'ifs' around the squad, but if marshall can find his form, if knockaert and schlupp improve on last year as they should do at...

    The annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2013 rumours thread

    berra has been a big part of one of the worst, most gutless defences in any league for the last few years. granted he's on a free and we need cover at cb, but i certainly wouldn't be getting excited if he signs.

    The annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2013 rumours thread

    i think bannan would be a good signing, got a lot of quality on the ball, good at set pieces. could be one of those players who drops down from the prem that makes a big impact in the division. would definitely give us more creativity in midfield although we already have one light-weight...

    The annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2013 rumours thread

    you're reading an awful lot into the fact that we haven't signed anyone by the end of May there. doing things early in the summer is best, but it's still early days and i think generally we don't hear much about pearson's signings until they actually happen. DON'T PANIC DON'T PANIC also...
