Football The 2013 / 2014 Season Thread

[Aoami]

Di Canio was way out of his depth, should never have been hired in the first place. So many better options around.

 

[soze]

Maureen, even if they win everything. It's never good enough.

I had a quid on him too he was a lot better than 13/1 as well. if he gets sacked next week i will be upset.

 

[soze]

Lloris could have easily got a red there. But even after 4 replays I only think it was outside the box but to close to be sure, ref had no chance to call that.

 

[georgie]

Di Canio has been sacked? I did Nazi that coming.

There wasn't a groan emoticon, so I facepalmed.

Yeah! Fucker shoulda been sent off! Was a red card all day long! Ref's on the take! We wuz robbed! CUNT!



This is fun. I see why you whingey fucks at the big clubs do this so much now.

 

[soze]

It is good to see Stoke have not changed that much. Huth on Gnabry was not far off an assault charge Stepping into his run and throwing a shoulder at his face. What a cunt.

I read somewhere Paolo 's the fascist manager to win the sack race.

 

[caLLous]

Right wing views, Fascist salutes, clashes with players, clashes with fans, terrible transfers.

Surely Sunderland would've known all that though?

Regardless of his off field personality, it comes across to me that most of the players didn't like the fact they were doing intense fitness and training twice a day. Player power wins again.

I know it was a few divisions down, but the players at Swindon bought into his philosophy and it worked wonders for them.

If anyone fancies a bet today, Orient are definitely going to lose at Brentford.

This is what got Stevenage 2 promotions and the play off on 3 seasons under Westley, then slumped to a 16th place finish under Smith (granted about 5 of our best players left when Westley did but they were conferance players to begin with) Westley back now, this season will be a rebuild and next season I expect to see Stevenage challenging for paly offs again.

 

[Aoami]

It was money that got Swindon promotion.

It seems to work better in lower leagues because players are more realistic - by the premiership they want to be ass kissed all day and woe unto the manager who crosses them.

 

[Aoami]

That's bollocks. Premier League players are 10 times fitter than their lower league counterparts. I remember last year they first couple of months after we got promoted, we were playing well but getting murdered in the last 10-20 minutes of games because we just completely ran out of puff. Fitness regimes were revolutionised when Wenger came to Arsenal and then was a long time ago now.

 

[Bahumat]

Big Sam has a lot to do with it as well.

 

[Aoami]

He obviously didn't apply any of it to himself did he? The fat fuck.

 

[caLLous]

Rodgers said that Suarez is "champing at the bit" to return. He sounds hungry.

 

[ileks]

I don't normally give betting tips, but when I do, they're fucking atrocious.

 

[caLLous]

Because it looks even better slowed down...

 

[Everz]

Orient.



Not often willing a promotion rival on but an Orient/Wolves automatic would be a nice one.

Fuck player power. Feel sorry for Sunderland fans, look where player power has got us...

 

[Aoami]

Fuck Di Canio IMO. He won't work in the pl again for a long time, if ever.

Oh agreed, more my hatred for players being a bunch of primadonna cunts.

Orient.

It's amazing. Apparently only 6 teams have ever managed such a start in football league history.

 

[Rubber Bullets]

Should this go here, or in video thread? Ah well this'll do. It's 2 weeks old, so sorry if you've seen it before:

Someone's been watching Stevie Taylor too much.

 

[caLLous]

Ouch, that looked awful for van Ginkel.

 

[Vladamir]

TORRES IS BACK

 

[Billargh]

Can't decide which game to watch, any help appreciated!

Spurs it is, it has Vertonghen running around kegging people.
