    It is the Daily Star, lets be honest.

    For journalism, it's the lowest of the low. For pics of birds though...

    Basics, Rheinhold, basics.

    A man of your experience shouldn't be getting caught out like that.


    Saying that her indoors rumbled me for viewing red tube a few years back.

    That went down well.

    Shame those stats don't include who they played, 3 games, 2 away to 2 out of the teams I believe will be challenging for the title.... as they say stats can be made to suit anything

    Without being biased, I'm not worried about our team, we look good, I would be worried if I were a Sunderland, Baggies or Palace supporter however for various reasons.

    The only redeeming thing about the Daily Star is, it isn't the Daly Mail... spit

    It's a space filler, that's all. It's like saying that one of the early pacesetters from each year invariably struggles. Of course one of the bottom 3 is much more likely to get relegated thank team that is on 6/7 points right now. But I'm sure that not every season a team in the bottom 3 at this stage gets relegated.

    I can tell you that there is a huge measure of pre-failure depression amongst the Macams; but as for the Magpies (would you adopt the official, biblically assigned, unluckiest bird in the world?), they look like pissed deer in very bright headlights. We, on the other hand, are well in front of the game; even though we do have a slight identity crisis. <doh>

    Just lack of concentration, got to the bottom of the article and saw star birds, thought not seen them for years, click. She's buggered off to bed now. They've only got a retro section.... Bloody hell Kathy Lloyd n Gaynor Goodman.

    Suzanne Mizzi was my favourite.

    Sadly passed away at just 43.

    I follow Kathy Lloyd on twitter. She's still got it, proper looking bird even in her mid40's.

    what the article says is that at least ONE of the those three will be relegated. hardly rocket science. if you look at the tables they show, it's unusual for more than one of the bottom three at this stage to go down. as it says "Watch out Hull, Sunderland and West Brom - one of you is heading for a season of struggle." well, it isn't going to be us.

    It's bad 'journalism', but don't forget all those so-called 'pundits' who, at the very start of the season, were predicting the relegation of all of the promoted three clubs....

    That is just plain lazy.

    only once in those tables did a team in the relegation zone have more than one point from three games (sunderland had 3 and finished 16th)

    lets see where we are in Jan !!

    weve played 3 games, two away to two of the best teams in Europe. How can any such imbecile come to any conclusion about any team after three matches ffs?
