Football The 2013 / 2014 Season Thread

[Everz]

Forgive me for thinking otherwise, but Wolves have been turned around? I don't keep up with League One!

Well our house has been sorted out, there has been a total change of structure with the owner keeping his beak out of footballing matters, a focus on the academy and a steady 'coach' to lead the march with a band of young lads. It's been nice to go to games for once and not dread awful football. Dropping down did a hell of a lot of good for the likes of Norwich, Leicester, Forest.. give you a chance to sort your shit out.

Wolves are currently rocking the socks off of League 1. They've finally found their level.

Orient are on fire though, it has to be said.

One of three teams to have one every division . Finished calling for AVBs head then praising him as the messiah over 90 minutes yet ;D?

Orient will sink I feel, the wheels have start to come off at 'Boro. My money is on Coventry to go up (with us), by far the best side I've seen all season.

The only problem I'd have with going down is the fact we already did a couple of years ago. It gave us a chance to get rid of some of the deadweight and over paid and under performing players (Owen etc). We ended up coming back stronger with significant improvements in our first 2 returning seasons, only for it to go back downhill again, largely due to under investment in the club.

I do think we're playing better so far this season than last, but it's the inconsistency and lack of ambition that gets me. Sugartits is content to have us finishing 17th every season as long as we keep lining his pockets. And Pardew, christ, I dread to think what he actually says to our players to make them regress as much as many of them have.

Coventry are the best side we've played so far by a long way.

For us it all comes down to injuries. We have a first 11 capable of a top 6 finish but we have a tiny squad.

New football manager is out today...personally I think £35 is a bit much for what is basically a database update!

Will wait for it to be £20 at Christmas I think.

Man City have finally lost patience with Hart - he's not starting on Saturday.

Dilemma - I have a family obligation today and can't watch the game. I'll have access to my phone so can see the score updates easily, do I just do this or go bunker mode and try and avoid all football scores?! Can't decide. I hate missing football.

 

[Raven]

uff

 

[Billargh]

Anita has made such a difference to us today. And although Cisse's done fuck all, at least Shola isn't on as a target to hoof the ball to, we're much better playing on the ground.

 

[Embattle]

Well that was us being very poor, lacking all creativity.

 

[Raven]

Double Uff

 

[Shagrat]

woohoo what a performance!!

 

[megadave]

best early goal ever

 

[Shagrat]

haha cattermole sent off again! what a liability

 

[caLLous]

And Dossena, wtf Sunderland.

 

[Embattle]

Sunderland really are terrible, not even sure Jesus could stop them ending up in Championship at the moment.

@ileks Orient and Wolves going clear of Boro. Scenes my friend!

 

[Raven]

Norwich, Let's be 'aving you!

 

[Olgaline]

Bendtner will be subbed on in the second half and score the winning goal

Fucking quality mate! Just seen the result after getting back from work. The fact that this isn't a fluke is finally starting to set in!

You go to Brisbane Road much? Our next away day is likely to Orient, reckon it'd be a sell out?

 

[caLLous]

I have a lot of time for Gibbs but that was bullshit, he signaled for the substitution off the pitch then walked back on and sat down.

Time wasting?

 

[Olgaline]

Leave Agger on the bench and get what you deserve..simple as that...they were all over the place in defence

 

[Raven]

Played gold with a big Liverpool fan today who though they would smash Arsenal...meeting him in the pub in half an hour...cannot wait.

 

[soze]

Solid 3 points that. Now for a Spuds loss
