Apologies, didn't know you'd previously answered the pineapple poser.
I love a player who winds up opponents... but elbowing in the face doesn't really count as winding-up. Sounds like I might have had a clearer stream than you, but regardless of picture quality isn't "blocking a run with force" a foul? Certainly not the only one that went unpunished today though, and yours weren't the only lads doing it. Same old gutless reffing - they should get rid of all of them and get a load of rugby refs in.
Anyway, good luck for the rest of the season mate, hopefully you'll get Anelka back before too long. Always rated him.

How bad was jelavic today. Think that's the end for him with us.
He's had his chance

It was a free kick, there's no denying that. I actually didn't see him use his elbow - I thought it was more his body - I'll look at it again later and form a better opinion.
The referee was absolute garbage for both sides in fairness. I was quite disgusted that Leon Osman's challenge went unpunished given it was two footed and studs up.
Likewise, with the good luck wishes. Rather you finish above those from across the City!

I'd like to see Grant for Osman, maybe change keepers, and give Chebe's an opportunity, bringing on Delefou (spl?) at half time.
Edit: and Oviedo for Baines to give him match practice/rest

Let's have it right, that was sh*te. No questions there.
Two very winnable games in and we've won neither is the worry. I hope we pick up some wins very soon or we're going to let teams get away from us.
Kevin was very poor today, oddly and our wing play was the definition of ponderous. Usually we're so quick to whip the ball in and it's what gets us goals as the opposition defence has little time to organise. Today we seemed to be taking longer and what resulted was most of our attempted crosses being blocked and easily defended.
The passing around the back like it was an England friendly must have wasted some serious time too. I get that when you play the way we do, you need some patience to wait for openings but we didn't create enough clear-cut chances today and only did towards the end when they got a bit tired, I thought. It was only West Brom, we need to do much better.
Overall, that was disappointing, although we were let down by a couple of individual performances in the side. I actually thought Pienaar was very, very good today. Coleman worked hard as per, Osman was bang average, Jelavic annoying, Fellaini decent, Barkley alright, Baines was average by his standards and the defence still looked a little shaky at times.
We've been given a very easy ride in our first 3 games of the season to get points on the board and ease into the new system, so Cardiff is looking like a must-win because I think if we drop three massively winnable games this early, all it'll do is give all our rivals a head-start and make things more difficult.

No player would come to us over Liverpool, especially one as highly rated as Sturridge so it wouldn't have mattered
More changes than just that then, no?
My selection for Stevenage: 4-4-2
Robles in goal
Stones, Heitinga at CB
Hibbo and Oviedo at fullback
Gibson (if fit) and Osman (captain) in CM
Deulofoof and Kennedy on the wings
Naismith and Anichebe up front.
Too many people needing game time. A good problem to have.

I think if we mix it up too much, those being brought in won't benefit sufficiently (eg Grant would benefit from playing with mentors), and besides our core players still need to adapt to the new approach. Be a shame to leave Stones out and maybe not play 3xCB's
Howard, Distin, Osman, Pienaar, Mirallas, Jelavic - for Robles, Heitinga, Gibson, Deulofeu, Anichebe
Id take out Baines and Fellaini at half time for Oviedo and Kone but thats just to cup tie them
