    I'm all out of ideas as to what the hell is happening here. And Vaughan gets another start? I can only hope the garden gnome proves me wrong and has a blinder.

    Rumour is and it is a rumour that Cabral likes a smoke and a drink? Anyone cast any light on that?

    A presence to break up play like cabral or catts would have made a world of difference in the first half today

    Saw quite a lot of the new players when they first got over here. Had the odd night out in Newcastle but never once saw them pissed (unlike the Ferdinand's and Diouf's) or any of them smoking. (More interested in the Geordie slags tbh)

    Omg. He should be shot for that then.

    My biggest fear about PDC is his inability to manage top earning players at this level. If a player smokes or likes a drink its not a crime. We don't want bloody monks playing for us do we?

    If this I the reason he isn't playing than PDC is a bigger clown than I first thought.

    give ower Cest they are professionals, paid a hefty whack to be fit and do the right things, you don't see a copper getting pissed and driving home, you don't see a runner smoke, you don't see a swimmer drink. i could go on suffice to say the club have rules and they must adhere to them

    Smokes and drinks yet still MotM against Fulham. He could smoke and drink on the pitch and would still be better than Seb and Vaughan.

    Poor scouting and research by our team prior to signing him then Thought all of this as well as the lads character would have been checked especially knowing PDCs regime.

    Drinking driving is an illegal action? Where has Cabral been involved in an illegal action or where have I said I think that's acceptable? That simply has to be one of the worst comebacks in history pal. Or do you have some info that Cabral has been arrested or charged for drinking driving?

    As for runners not smoking or swimmers drinking I think you've been living in a bubble all your life if you believe that. I have friends that competed at the highest levels (Olympic standard in swimming) who could drink an alcoholic under the table on a night out but they trained as hard as they played and that's what professional adults do.

    God forbid we ever have a team of monks and nuns who don't know how to live their lives as well as play football. You may want that I certainly don't.

    Really? Last I read all the player had subscribed to his methods and are happy. So what is this inability you're on about then.

    Glad you weren't PR officer on the homefront. The last thing this country would have needed was a dangerous man who thinks up complications in his head and airs it with vigor to anyone who'll listen.
