    It hasn't got the two tones of red though. The thing I like about the United one is that one half is darker red than the other half.

    Hull winning 1-0 at half time, don't think many pundits expected that lol, a game of two halves, let's see if they are blown out of the water.

    Won't get an arguement from me , but Vorm was closer to Fab , than De Vries was to Vorm .

    He was the best keeper in the league the year before he went to Wolves added to the fact he beat Freestones record of clean sheets, at the time you could argue he was our most valuable player. The fact Vorm turned out to be better is neither here or there. I remember being concerned when he decided not to renew his contract going into the Premiership without our first chouce keeper. So as a comparison of how important Dorus was to Swansea and Suarez to Liverpool I wouldn't disagree

    I loved De Vries , but to compare his importance to Swansea to Suarez at Liverpool is beyond funny .
    After Dorus left he never became a # 1 Premier League keeper unless because injury ...period .
    This is no dig at De Vries , only a laugh at Rodgers .

    But don't forget that he was in a league lower than we are now, yes he was important and without him we wouldn't be here now, but as important as Suarez at Liverpool? Don't think so mate, he got them to a whisker of the championship, they collapsed without him the next season, we kicked on without Dorus.

    Oh dear lol

    Cardiff 0-0 QPR
    Posted at 15:36
    This game could do with a goal to liven things up a bit. It's not exactly a showpiece in south Wales so far.

    After half an hour, the game is still goalless and neither side have managed a shot on target.
