Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
How do you feel about Lee Probert?
"Referee: Lee Probert - last seen in our penultimate game of last season, when he awarded penalties to each side and dismissed Rob Elliot as United won 2-1 at QPR.
That was the first game that the Gloucestershire-based whistler had allowed us to win in eight attempts, a run which included the FA Cup loss at Gus Poyet's Brighton back in January.
Probert has refereed the mackems once this season so far, dismissing John O'Shea during a 1-3 loss at Crystal Palace."
Cattermole and Tiote (at least) will get red cards tomorrow.

How long until Joe Hart is dropped from the City side? He's clearly not good enough, far too many "uncharacteristic errors". Also a bit of a worry for England, in terms of their World Cup campaign.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
The Premier League has a lot of really good goalkeepers, however looking through them, there aren't too many English ones! There is John Ruddy, Ben Foster and David Stockdale. I do think John Ruddy is extremely underrated but overall you might be right - England do not have great strength in depth in terms of goalkeepers. Fraser Forster at Celtic has been excellent for quite a while and has a reasonable amount of big game experience. I can't see him being selected though, not until he's playing in a 'top' league.
I predict Hart'll make some crucial errors in Brazil.

He's been in the England squad already and has a reasonable chance of advancing to a more prominent position within the pecking order in time for Brazil.
For what it's worth I don't think Hart will be in goal for MC's next match and hopefully never again for England.
