Football The 2010/2011 Season Thread

Arsenal without Song are weak also, better cover for him is needed, maybe the likes of youth such as Emmanuel-Thomas could do the trick?

Frimpong had a brilliant pre season and looked like he would walk into the first team in the DM role before he got injured. But this is the position where i want to see a 28 or 29 year old bough in who can help the kids with the big games.

Ahh yeh him, experience is needed there as Arsenal don't look the same without Song in there tbh.

Oh to have friends with nice seats

 

[Embattle]

I see Fergie is up to his old trick moaning about Refs again.

 

[soze]

New kit time again, our 125th anniversary kit. I would rather it just had the cannon than the whole new badge.

I hope this is not a sign to come for our away kit lol.

 

[Aoami]

that away kit is buff

 

[soze]

that away kit is buff

That is only the training kit so far I hope its not going to be our away kit its not our colours. I did not see the pics had gone next to each other the training kit was meant to be below the text.

 

[Aoami]

you are right about the badge though, just the cannon would be better. it's too big.

 

[Vasconcelos]

the away kit looks exactly the samethan the new France team kit...

 

[Vladamir]

Is that why you surrendered to Barcelona last week?

RICKIE LAMBERTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

a win today all but secures promotion back to the champo

 

[Moriath]

cardiff getting spanked atm didnt turn up it seems

 

[Everz]

Cardiff bottling in epic style. Norwich back in the prem pretty much.. insane turnaround there, Paul Lambert surely one of the best managerial propspects eh?

Cardiff bottling in epic style.

Absolutely.

Fucking painful to watch. Second half is a bit better, but the first half hour especially was unforgivable.

As my dear ol' daddy says: They'll always let you down.

Reckon there's a chance we might still be here to welcome your lot down to the Championship, Everz.

 

[Aoami]

if norwich beat pompey to get promoted now it will be a great great day, saints, and my second team getting promoted!

 

[Aoami]

jackson!

On an unrelated note; It was interesting to hear Sean Derry speak before the game, he seemed resigned to QPRs fate re. possible points deduction.

They rightly should be tbh, they broke the rules and thus should deal with consequences, I think it is a certainty they will get -15 points tbh.

 

[Corran]

how many games has the "illegal" played been involved in. -15 points seems harsh, but to be fair you could rightly say that the FA would be in their right to deduct ALL points gained with the guy having had play time.
That would certainly be a strong statement if he a regular player (I payed no attention to it tbh so dont know if it would be alot of points).

With that said, it a open shut case, they cant argue about not knowing about the rule etc so harsh penalty is only fair. And they cant use the Tevez case because that was covered under a different law.

As I understand it, he's been with them for about 18 months, and last season won their Player of the year. Although that's only by what people have told me, so it might be completely wrong.

[edit]
Just checked, he signed on 7 July 2009 and has made 79 appearances.

[Aoami]

yup, he's their second best player after taarabt

 

[ileks]

Congrats to Norwich tbh! back to back automatic promotions is pretty impressive. We still knocked them out of the fa cup tho!

 

[Shagrat]

so if QPR do get a points deduction, does that mean theyll drop to 3rd or 4th in the championship and have to play the play offs or start the Prem next season on -15 ????

dropped to playoffs.... with playoffs delayed for the appeal courts etc... thus whoever wins playoff has greatly reduced time in order to get players for their premiership season....

if it QPR that win the playoffs then that wont matter, just additional punishment. If it one the other teams though then it will be rather harsh as they be getting punished for another teams "cheating" and could have their chances of survival greatly reduced

Here is the picture proof that Pepe hit Dani Alves leg after all.





Is it only me that can't see any injury?

Never seen anything more deliberate in my life and the CUN* should be banned.

 

[Everz]

Mcnaughton in being a **** shocker?

Imagine if Dani Alves would have been the linesman, ambulance would've been needed!
