Unsurprisingly, pardew has been sacked. They've been on a terrible run of form, confused substitutions and under performing squad after spending money in te summer. None of my palace mates will be sad to see him go, appear to be very hopeful on fat Sam taking over.

Girlfriend behind the decks on my phone Laptop screen is a picture from Section Y.

Seems like there is a general air of despair, apathy and annoyance around the club at the moment. Really need a good victory to not only get the fans back on side, but also and more importantly, get the players confidence back up. I think that's what's been frustrating about the past few weeks is that it isn't a case of not having the team to do better, we do, they just need to be set up correctly and get their confidence back. I don't doubt their desire to do well, just isn't clicking at the moment. Hopefully this is the game to do it, especially since it's tough place to go to. A few strong away performances will set us up well to go into the new year. Out Christmas shopping Home - possibly listening if I can get away from the family Home 2-1 Motherwell, McLean

Guarantees a white christmas for some!

I see Barton is set to re - sign for burnley. I'd be very intrigued to see if his form the hunnery was temporary

Seve and Heikkenen, even though I think it was for one season only? was my favourite midfield partnership in recent times. No-one has come close. Nicholson was awesome, but by then Seve wasn't his best.

Opened this door on the bus, had scroll down quickly!

Heading round to the family home, can't wait! Should have a decent turkey to pick up from the butchers on Christmas eve Morning whisky and champagne Smoke salmon most probably Turkey with all the trimmings, normal bread sauce for my parents and I, not for my g/f and my sister (bread sauce is always one of my highlights of Christmas) Girlfriend is making a sticky-toffee pudding and we'll probably be having some chocolate log as well Food coma and more booze!

Currently losing 7 (seven) - 0 to Murderwell :o This is the team: Craddock, Omolukun, Robertson, Storie, Roscoe, MacPherson, Wright, Anderson, Dangana, F Ross, Norris Edit: Finished 9 (NINE) - 1?!?!?

We can but dream KFP! Would be the ideal! Watched the game down at home with my Gran, Malaga, we went berserk lol. My Dad isn't much of a football man, seems to have skipped a generation, my Gran absolutely loved it. Mind finding the game on the red button down here in Englandshire and being overjoyed!

Ok, i'm selfish

2007. Crazy to think how time has passed! Goals: Highlights:

Hopefully we'll add fuel to the fire on the 30th then!

I think Hammers actually voted "The Post" as man of the match

It's a good watch Al!

That's no good Malaga! Hope she's ok

My hibbie mate says when he's off form he's as good as playing with a man down. I don't think we can afford a luxury player like that. We need someone who is proven. What is clear, we need to spend money. McInnes' inability to have good transfer windows (in particular the last two) has seriously cost us this season. I hope he's got some ideas which are going to pay dividends straight away.

Excellent post DL, interesting take on things

Watching MOTD , how the hell did West Ham win yesterday?!? Hull hit the post about 4 times! So unlucky. Second game in a row the hammers have won 1-0 courtesy of a penalty.

Ha ha you really do love that site

Went out to Faversham a couple of weekends back. No hills, in fact it's pretty flat as hell out towards the estuary and exposed to the wind but a nice walk with one of the best pubs i've been to at the half way point. One of the most haunted pubs too apparently, well worth a visit if you're ever down in Kent. Off the beaten track but definitely rewards you with fine ale and food! http://www.ghost-story.co.uk/index.php/haunted-pubs/357-the-shipwrights-arms-faversham-kent

Saw that, how the hell does that work They not linked with Samaras too?

Would Neil consider making the move back up north of the border? He'd be exactly the kind of manager we need, one that can spot a bargain and brings through academy players. Not sure he's too popular with Norwich fans though.

Certainly seems to have been something our manager has subscribed to. We just need to get back to basics and play to our strengths. Enough of of this over thinking over cautious approach, it is precisely this that has brought on this malaise in the first place. Something has to drastically change in our mentality / luck for us to even think about challenging for second.

We have a nice bottle of Malbec which I thought we were gonna have but doesn't really sit well with curry! Not heard of Oak Cross, where's it from?
