Even by Gruinard standards this paragraph takes some beating...........
"It was little wonder Carson stood motionless and alone for several moments at the end, contemplating the unfairness of it all. In the end, he was shaken out of it by a hug from Stoke keeper Thomas Sorensen, who kept him out of Villa's team last season. "

From the NOTW - 'A fierce shot by Ishmael Miller, which tested Carson, and a wasteful effort over the crossbar from Filipe Teixeira was all they had to show in an attacking sense. '
If your gonna start shooting at your own keeper then your always gonna be on the back foot.

I thought the Telegraph ratings were a bit generous towards Mowbray Dick, 2.9 out of 10  |

News of the World is a bit weird, they seem to think Carson put in a man of the match performance? They also reckon he made a save from Faye when it was Sidibe so maybe this report was done via Ceefax?

It was an impressive recovery from Stoke, who had been beaten 5-0 by Manchester United in their previous match. 'We had our pants pulled down there and our bottoms slapped,' said Pulis. 'So I'm really pleased with the way we bounced back today.'

None of the papers seem to have picked up the REAL reason we abused Carson... Or have I missed it somewhere ???

Nerves already on edge after his latest blunder in an England jersey, the former Liverpool goalkeeper had to contend with a hostile home crowd after his summer decision to turn down Stoke in favour of the Hawthorns, but came through the ordeal with his pride intact.Independent on Sunday |

The Mirror report is a good description of what Mama's role in the side is all about. It should be compulsory reading for all those who knock him.

Does anyone continue to knock him? If they do they're mad!

I haven't heard to many people knocking Mama this season forny. Its a bit condescending to suggest that they should read the mirror report!!!
Many of us are quite knowledgable about footy you know. Although perhaps not so much as you
