Football The 2011/2012 Season Thread

[soze]

Wenger has promised to think about looking into buying some defensive cover if we lose so there is that

 

[caLLous]

Put your houses on Man Utd winning on Sunday, the ref who hates us most in the world is in charge.

Mike Dean, it's NO fucking coincidence we've won 0 out of the last 10 games you've been in charge of. Please stop being such a biased cunt. It's fucking obvious.

If both of our teams do well on Sunday we go up to second. Mon Arsenal.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

The last time we won a Prem match with Dean in charge was OVER 3 years ago.

Suspect.

 

[caLLous]

Yeah you really need to improve. :\

 

[Shagrat]

Are all the stories about man utd youth players dodgy wage demands true? Was reading today that Morrison was after 30 k a week and he's only made 3 first team starts, and wellbecks contract talks have stalled as well.

 

[Scouse]

I hope so. Why should the profits generated from the fans not be equally shared out around the employees of the company?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Because they're not doing any of the work?

 

[Scouse]

Because they're not doing any of the work?

You mean the footballers aren't playing football?

 

[Turamber]

I know nothing interesting happens outside Villa Park but have you considered that not every person who contributes to this thread lives in England?

I was replying to somebody who asked what I thought about some 'best of' team mostly consisting of players outside of the UK. I really wasn't, and am not, bothered in the slightest.

Great news ^ a return of Clevely next month.

Regarding Ravel Morrison; he's got many issues and his agent is the least of them. I would say cash in and let him make his mark elsewhere, he'll regret it more than we will.

 

[Ch3tan]

et tu Barton? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16661074.stm

Ouch, he's got a point though (Barton, not Warnock)

 

[Everz]

Shit has hit the fan. Wolves boards and talks rife with the news that Mick has been given the axe. Reckon it's beat Villa or bust tbh. But still it's a shock.

 

[caLLous]

Manchester United's Wayne Rooney says Arsenal still in title race

Steady on there Wazza. :\

He can fo tbh, he's talking about Chelsea and Arsenal going on a "run", there's a team quite well-placed between those 2 and the Manchester clubs y'know.

 

[Ch3tan]

You are just upset that he didn't mention spurs

 

[caLLous]

I am. I really am. Not one mention in that whole article, not even one of the beeb's typical last-paragraph catch-up style soundbytes. Wankers, the lot of 'em.

 

[Ch3tan]

They also didn't mention Liverpool, and what a hard time they are having what with the 8 game ban for Suarez

edit: for racist language towards a fellow professional

 

[Cerb]

What was the 8 game bad for Chet?

 

[Ch3tan]

Liverpool sign a new striker from Nigeria.

On the first day of training Kenny Dalglish picks up a ball and says "Ball". Then he does a kicking motion and says "Kick". Then he points to the goal and says "Goal - Understand? KICK, BALL, GOAL..... GOOOOOAAL!"

The Nigerian striker says, "Excuse me Mr Dalglish, but I speak perfectly good English"

Dalglish says

Spoiler

"Sit down son, I'm talking to Andy Carroll"

 

[Shagrat]

doh what a mess

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-16656754

I wish Newcastle would actually get some good press about the football theyre playing, we are 6th at the moment you know, joint points with Arsenal, who are a title contenders apparently.

But no, lets carry on making them look like a bunch of loons arguing over stadium rights etc.

tottenham/newcastle/norwich/swansea should get a lot more press coverage for the impressive starts to the season theyve made rather than getting endless bollocks about utd/city/chelsea/arsenal and perennial also rans Liverpool

 

[Raven]

Well tbh, the owner is a loon. Any football fan still calls it St James's park.

 

[Cerb]

The first time a main network in the US is going to broadcast a game live (the Arsenal - United) Sunday....and one of the pundits? Piers Morgan.

Fuck me.

 

[Raven]

lol!

 

[Shagrat]

haha that's worse than having to listen to Jamie Redknapp

 

[eksdee]

Worse than Ray Wilkins though? Sadly, probably not.

 

[Everz]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16661825.stm

I lol'd.

 

[CorNokZ]

Lol, last comment is pure comedy gold. But in a way he is right. He proved himself over his entire career

 

[CorNokZ]

 

[Lethul]

To many showboat goals imho. I will never understand whats beautiful by jeopardizing a goal with a raboona when you are alone with the keeper etc. Or when a player takes on 5 defenders instead of passing to his teammate that is free. But some people seem to love it

Some absolute awesome goals in there tho, and omfg at nr 9 tho

 

[eksdee]

It seems supporting Liverpool has sucked all the joy from your soul, Lethul.

 

[Everz]

Wolves on FF.

Woop! What a history to be proud of.
