poor leic against cardiff .. stupid noob french man takes a shit penalty to put them out tbh

 

[georgie]

That really was a shite penalty by Kermorgant and I feel for Leicester...

But c'mon the Bluebirds! Wembley bound again!

 

[Corran]

You fucking what gohan? Forlan was a legend at united, his work rate, skill and performances were second to none. He just could not finish, never had luck on his side. You don't get love from the fans for not showing up.

Veron was just not suited to the premiership, he was good for us in Europe, but pointless in the league.

It another round of the "Media state this and only saw some highlights"

 

[Vasconcelos]

Is De Gea the secret son of Van der Sar?

 

[cHodAX]

Gutted for Fulham. Please for Forlan, glad he has proven me right in the long run.

 

[megadave]

aguero was pretty nifty in that, two assists as well

BBC Sport - Football - Birmingham City opt against signing Christian Benitez

Mistake! I thought he did really well for his first season over here, yes he lacked goals, but his general play and ability suggested they would come.

BBC Sport - Football - Dimitar Berbatov vows to stay at Manchester United \o/

 

[CorNokZ]

GF would have to win 5-0 in that case, or Randers go through on goal score :/
so, it's brønby wins and gf wins or gf go down..

it's still like a bad dream though...you catch your self every now and then thinking wtf! happend..sure injuries and what not but still..gaah!

and 0-3 to Køge!?!??

Randers and GF has scored equally many goals, so if Randers doesn't win GF just needs a 1-0 victory and they stay up

Ideally it would go like this:

Randers 0 - 0 Brøndby
AGF 1 - 0 OB
AAB/Esbjerg victory

BBC Sport - Football - Cesc Fabregas keen to 'sort out' Arsenal future

I hope this is the contract extension i heard about and not a transfer. If he signs a new deal at Arsenal before the world cup it might help shut Barcelona up during the election but i doubt it

No they didn't. It was a season long loan with a view to a permanent signing at a pre-agreed price, which was 8million. The original article was updated, but it wasn't updated fully once all the details of the deal came out.

Randers and GF has scored equally many goals, so if Randers doesn't win GF just needs a 1-0 victory and they stay up

Ideally it would go like this:

Randers 0 - 0 Brøndby
AGF 1 - 0 OB
AAB/Esbjerg victory

Although they have scored an equal amount of goals, Randers still have less scored against them, Randers have a tally of 36-40 and GF 36-44
That means that if Randers draw with Brønby, AGF will have to win by at least 4 goals "and we all know thats not gonna happen also Randers are better head to head...
So it gotta be Brønby win, Agf win..and Aab loose out on the bronze, "wich also sucks"

FCK can actually help AGF though,
becuase regardless of the Randers match, if FCK beat Sønderjyske with 3 goals or more, and AGF win by 2 or more....well then Randers get to beat Brønby and the bronze goes to Aab/Esbjerg

FA Cup final day

On other note, might interest Marc & Soze, from Guillem Ballague's column on Skysports;

CESC ON THE WAY?
Hi Guillem. If Barcelona fail to win La Liga than would you consider that as a failure as they won everything last season. Also, how would you read the situation of Cesc Fabregas, is he coming to Barcelona? And lastly are Barcelona looking to offload Ibrahimovic as he seem to have lost the form he showed in the early stages of the season? If so, who do you think they should buy. I think Van Persie would be great addition. Tnahsib Rai, Liverpool

GUILLEM SAYS: Even if Barca did miss out on the title it would be hard to class their season as a failure. Their stats are amazing, superior to any other side in the history of La Liga. When you have a successful year the season after is always a difficult one, but Barca have been excellent.

With Fabregas, Barcelona have announced a presidential election for June 13 and Joan Laporta wants to end his tenure by signing him. If he doesn't manage to his potential successors will then try, and I get the impression that this will be the year Fabregas returns to Barcelona.

I know that there is a mandate for an agent to try and sell Zlatan Ibrahimovic to a club in England, as Barcelona are hoping to sign David Villa in the next few weeks. So you could see him in the Premier League next season.

 

[megadave]

Guillem Ballague is shit now days, still living off the credibility from about 10 years ago.

 

[Turamber]

If they had the best stats of any team ever in La Liga, how would they be runners up? :S

 

[Marc]

Ballague is a closet Barca fan. Pretends he supports Espanyol but I reckon its a smokescreen considering he waxes lyrical about Barca at every oppurtunity.

 

[Marc]

I dont know what it is about him, but for some reason I want to punch Andy Townsend. No, in fact, him and Captain Obvious, Jamie Redknapp againt each other in a fight to the death, Gladatorial stylee. That would be mint.

 

[Raven]

Yeah, would be even better if they could both double team Andy Grey as a warm up. Absolute bell end.

fuck yeah!!

 

[JingleBells]

Play up pompey!

 

[Vladamir]

4-5 times we've hit the woodwork now? This is gearing up for a cupset

 

[ST^]

Clive Tyldesley is such a twat. HURR HURR it took me 15 seconds to prove it was a goal! Oh wait, no it wasn't.

Fuck off.

 

[gunner440]

What? Are you supporting us this tournament Marc?¿

 

[Marc]

What? Are you supporting us this tournament Marc?¿

At the start yes, but depends on who gets further between spain and Messi

 

[Corran]

Bah at Chelsea. Moment the guy was standing there waiting to take the kick I said he would bottle it and Chelsea would win. Was predicatable

 

[Turamber]

Well deserved winners. Their squad might be coming to the end of its useful life but they are doing it with some style. Ancelotti would get my vote for manager of the season, which is surprising as he didn't start off all that well.

 

[Vladamir]

I don't think the squad is getting too old.

Lampard and Drogba have had their best seasons in a blue shirt at 31 and 32 respectively; Carvalho, Ballack and Deco are the only ones who appear to be suffering a decline IMO, i reckon 2 out of those 3 will leave this summer.

We need 1 or 2 new players in on top of the youth coming through this year but i don't see us reinforcing more than that. Getting Essien back (touchwood x100) will be like a new signing, again!

 

[Embattle]

2nd half was sodding boring.
