    [Football] Man City v Liverpool

    Quite. It was all planned and premeditated and they knew there would be no repercussion. Its a green light for the same thing happening again. Their level of arrogance surpasses anything else in football. They have no shame in bringing disgrace to British football, which their mass, popular...

    [Football] Man City v Liverpool

    Harsh words maybe but this violence cannot be tolerated. Most of us know, in our heart of hearts that nothing will happen. LFC are treated with kid gloves and a level of sensitivity that clouds judgement.

    [Albion] My father and the Goldstone

    Special memories that will last forever. My Dad didn't take me to my very first game, some friends did. I was so enthused about it, that he was ' persuaded ' to go with me to the next home game. From then on, he was hooked as well. He saw us win on his debut ( as had I ) and when he was clearly...

    [Football] Man City v Liverpool

    Yes, well done Liverpool, mission accomplished, on and off the pitch. The ugliest scenes seen on British streets for years, organised, orchestrated and disgusting. Just pure arrogant scum. Willing to pull any stroke, to unnerve, alarm and even put lives in jeopardy. Does any sane person really...

    [Football] Man City v Liverpool

    Oh good....I really hope he feels better about himself. It will really make me feel better about his ineptitude on Saturday to know that he is now feeling better about himself.

    [Albion] Did Izquierdo mess his pants when he just had the goalie to beat ?

    I agree that it is encouraging to see us carve the opposition open and create these opportunities but not to convert any of them is unacceptable at this level. It just underlines the fact that we lack that little bit of quality that only bucketloads of money usually buys. We have a good squad of...

    [Albion] Did Izquierdo mess his pants when he just had the goalie to beat ?

    Instinctive ' push and go ' type of player, who gravitates between occasional moments of brilliance ( West Ham and Stoke ) and a lot of frustrating ' nearly ' moments. Not comfortable with time to think, as on Saturday and other games where he has been one on one with the keeper and loses...

    [Albion] When will the Albion next win a league game?

    He'll have to head it from the edge of the box!!!

    [Albion] Goldson or Duffy v Palace?

    We have already been warned than Hodgson will use pace against us and Benteke is very unlikely to start.

    [Albion] Goldson or Duffy v Palace?

    But he won't....his technique is all wrong. He doesn't get over the ball. Just powers it and hopes it goes in. He has got more chance of killing someone behind the goal than hitting the back of the net. ( ...and Dunk needs to improve as well )

    [Albion] Goldson or Duffy v Palace?

    We are all entitled to our opinion. This is not a collective love-in. A lot of posters are stating that it is one error and one error only. I disagree. I have been concerned about his form in a number of recent games .He went to pieces yesterday and had already made errors before the critical...

    [Football] Arsenal v Southampton

    Indeed....but just a gentle reminder to some on NSC who are arrogantly declaring that Saints and Stoke have no chance of winning three games, that football, at this time of the season, produces surprise results.

    [Albion] Goldson or Duffy v Palace?

    Just my point. The big thumped header 20-30 yards straight to the opposition serves no purpose other than to delay the opposition for about ten seconds. Where are the cushioned headers, the subtlety, the finesse? There is none. Its just basic hoofing except with the head.

    [Albion] No ratings thread?

    Playing like we did yesterday ( and at Everton ) we will struggle to get another point. We have undoubtedly the toughest run-in and I don't care what anyone says about possible lack of focus amongst the big boys, they will still be going flat out against us to ensure the highest possible finish...

    [Albion] No ratings thread?

    It does beg the question as to what happens at half time. It seems pretty obvious that the hair dryer isn't switched on and as you rightly say, the lethargy continued in the second half. He is cautious by nature and is not a gambler and seems to manage by routine rather by instinct. Indicative...

    [Albion] Fair Play Huddersfield.

    Quite. Propper clean through in the first minute and criminally puts it wide. That goes in and we take them to the cleaners. Same with Murray ( first half v Leics ) clean through, puts it wide. Same with the headless chicken in the second half. Clean through and fluffs it. Dunk, two yards out...

    [Albion] Goldson or Duffy v Palace?

    Duffy is fine with the aerial ball coming towards him and he can thump big, heavy headers high back up field. When he is attacking corners and free kicks offensively, nothing changes. Big, heavy headers thumped over the bar. No subtlety, no real touch. He is less mobile than the other three...
