    Lets keep this going and hopefully quite a few of us can comment on here in a month or so and admit we got it wrong with our opinions for the season ahead, especially Love and McNair. Maybes if Kone goes it could be a blessing in disguise(I very much doubt it would though).

    Now for past mistakes and lets all be honest. I said James McClean would be as good as Gareth Bale when he first broke into our first team <doh>.

    I said Defoe was too old and we were daft to be giving him such a long contract.

    I thought Ola would be a good signing and touted him myself for about a month before we loaned him. <laugh>

    Ha ha.... How much humble pie do you have to eat to cancel out that statement ?!?

    Stan Vargas debut vs Arsenal (2000-01) had me purring like a cat, I was convinced he would end up at Man Utd, Barcelona etc etc.

    Why are we paying 500k for some unknown striker called Kevin Phillips? We should show more ambition and buy somebody for a million plus!

    Didn't want Moyes as he,has the personality of a gnat, will keep my slice of pie in the fridge for later then it will be still OK to eat (hopefully).

    It was... From the 2nd minute when he picked up the ball and ran with it...and ran with it ?!?
    Never seen a centre half spray the ball around with such ease.
    Fans looking around at each other with disbelief!!!
