All sympathy lost for CCFC. Zaha is a convenient scapegoat for people who don't seem to watch much football. Otherwise they'd see that their game mostly improved when he was brought into a game in the passed. He had nobody to link up to in the CP game. Jones was nowhere to be seen when Zaha was looking for opportunities to cross or pass the ball into the middle.

Manure wouldnt loan him back to us, can't imagine they'll sell him back at a loss. Moyes is crap, not stupid.
Clinton is Clinton. I have known him for a long time, I know his mother... Simon Jordan |

The Ayatollah celebration came into use at Cardiff City games in 1990. It was originally performed by the singer and fans of a Welsh-language punk group called U Thant. It was first performed by Cardiff City fans at Sincil Bank, home of Lincoln City, on September 15, 1990, the day after U Thant had played a gig at Cardiff's Chapter Arts Centre. U Thant's singer had been inspired by footage of attendants at the funeral of Ayatollah Khomeini doing the movement to express their grief at his death. It has been claimed that it was initially used as a sign of despair at the way the team were playing. It quickly became very popular with fans of the club, and has since been used in terms of celebration and support for the team. The start of the Ayatollah has often mistakenly been credited to former chairman Sam Hammam. This is likely due to the national coverage of Hammam performing the celebration pitchside and in front of the visiting Leeds fans, drawing criticism from then-Leeds manager David O'Leary, the Football Association, and a BBC undercover report, following the now infamous 2-1 victory over Leeds United in the third round of the FA Cup in 2002, which saw crowd trouble after the final whistle.

I think Wilf's experience at Man Utd. has left him with a lot of unhappiness and a lack of confidence. If Wilf had bee handled differently instead of becoming just another trophy on Sir Alex's sideboard the results could have been so different. Is it possible Sir Alex was so wrong about Wilf or is it that Moyes is under so much pressure to do better that he has no time available to bring Wilf on ?
