Euro 2008 (Official Man City LOL Thread)

Ha ha Adam Jones Is God, think you're good at football eh?

REM are playing at Forest's ground? when?
Forest arnt dont have very good players, theyve had to emply REM to play for them.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

REM playing for forest would own. I bet their guitarist has a mean tackle (if he's on a plane anyway)

[ChodaBoy]

The away stand at Maine Road did have a roof, unless they shoved you in the GG Stand (which was temp. scaffolding coz of the new ground btw.).
Curse Anders Svensson for making City lose the last game at Maine Road!!!

Yea it was Nats dad, he placed the Gentlemens sign above their toilet, and when it rains sometimes we sit on the chairs and it feels like we're back at Maine Road.

[ChodaBoy]

*chants if REM played a match*
Michael Stipes, Michael Stipes runnin' down the wing
Michael Stipes, Michael Stipes runnin' down the wing
With his bald head
He puts one in the net
Michael Stipes...Michael Stipes.......Michael Stipes.

Ha ha, i know what the first thing im gonna say to her tomorrow is.

/gets on the bus
Me - hi nat, your dad steals grass.

We was gonna buy seats from gigg lane, but i dont think there actully selling them.

[metal-militia]

It was Michael Svenson i think :p (how we miss him :()

Yeah we sat in the ****ty bit while it pissed it down with rain :(

[Untitled]

I went to main road, im sure i had a roof.

The time we beat city.

/brags.

[ChodaBoy]

My god, please stop talking about that game. City had NO,i repeat, NO, first team or any reserve players on the squad that bury beat. it was like them playing the youth squad, if the youth squad was c'rap!.

[Untitled]

Dont lie, it was back in the day of bury being in division one, when they was good, unlike now.

17th in leage two, and people wonder why i dont go to the games any more.

[jaymz_is_god]

Well done to Newcastle :thumb: Glad to see that cocky cunt Mourinho brought back down to earth.

Still four replays to be played. United, Newcastle, Leicester and Bolton are the only definite teams for tomorrows draw. Hope we get Arsenal.

[ChodaBoy]

Arsenal v Man U again? are you psycho?!

I wonder what crowd violence is like at polo matches or equestrian, it wont be like Everton v Man U - they will throw cheques and mortgages at each other, then the victim will start complaining "only £40,000? you cheapskate"

[DuncMaster]

Mon the Gers!!

[Untitled]

Didnt people have stuff threw at them today, like yestoday?

[ChodaBoy]

Theres been incidents in Everton v Man Utd, Burnley v Blackburn, Celtic v Rangers.

[Lord Abortion]

If we got arsenal again that would be irritating
theyre so easy to beat...

[Adam Jones is GOD]

YAY! Even if we manage to beat Spurs, we'll get devovered by Newcastle in the next round.

[ChodaBoy]

/attempts to wind up Toon fans

i wouldnt worry about facing newcastle, they shouldnt even be there!

[Lord Abortion]

really

chelsea were **** yesterday and you know it...

we're behind you!!

[MILF Hunter]

I hope the Darlo match tomorrow aint gonna be called off due to all this f.ucking snow

[Rancid Dan]

Wahey! Tottenham or Forest, should be able to win, Semi finals here we come !!

I ran onto the pitch when Newcastle stayed up in Division 3.

[ChodaBoy]

I cant see any shock results, but some guy on the BBC said he thinks it'll be bolton - United in the final (which i seriously doubt).

Spurs will probably beat Forest, but only because they have spent alot of money recently. (i say probably but i dont mean it dead serious)

Quite alot of the time games are played in the snow, they are a bit dull - but are funny if they use a white ball.

Nice avatar - hot chickas always are the best style (did u know that the actress that played hilary is now 37!)

[jaymz_is_god]

Well, an easy tie for United :) I can't see anyone beating us in the cup now. So, that'll be us winning the double.

Optimism++

[Rancid Dan]

It's our cup this year, 35 years without a trophy will come to an end.

[woodsinho]

and then there's 'boro for the waffa cup, it's been a long year since our last trophy :)

[Rancid Dan]

No, that's definetley ours ! :)

[metal-militia]

Bad draw for Saints :(

Even if they beat Brentford (Which i'm not too sure about) they have to defeat United.

Ah well, as long as we stay up i'm not bothered how bad we do in the cup :)

[Rancid Dan]

Not taken seriously :)

[devils_night]

Anyone ever ran onto the pitch? I would like to do it at the end of the season, but the boring farts that the FA are ban it and fine the clubs if anyone does it nowadays, i was annoyed with that coz i used to be on the front row so I would have been able to run to the players quicker.

Once, at Darlo's last game at Feethams. Feethams owns the Williamson Motors Stadium, I don't care how modern it is, it's freikin empty

[devils_night]

Come on Newcastle btw, drawing Spurs or Forest at home. It's won't be a walk in the park, but we avoided Arsenal and Man utd, which is something

[metal-militia]

I think the final will be Arsenal vs Newcastle.

Bah, i knew we would get United. I was hoping for Leicester away so that i would be able to go to it.

[ChodaBoy]

If you pay for my ticket i'll go in your place and let you know what happens...

I think that certain players are partially to blame for Arsenal, like Edu who wouldnt sign a contract and made out he wanted to leave.

[Ganondorf]

Bad draw for Saints :(

Even if they beat Brentford (Which i'm not too sure about) they have to defeat United.

Ah well, as long as we stay up i'm not bothered how bad we do in the cup :)


Saints vs West Brom is when?

[devils_night]

I think the final will be Arsenal vs Newcastle.

Bah, i knew we would get United. I was hoping for Leicester away so that i would be able to go to it.

I like your thinking, I was hoping for Leicester home because it seemed like the easiet team left, still I can't complain too much at what we got, it's a challange, but it's not frickin Chelsea again

[metal-militia]

Saints vs West Brom is when?


Tommorow (Tuesday) :D

[metal-militia]

I like your thinking, I was hoping for Leicester home because it seemed like the easiet team left, still I can't complain too much at what we got, it's a challange, but it's not frickin Chelsea again


I'm not bothered how good or bad a team is we play, i will always go if its wihin a reasonable travelling distance

[jaymz_is_god]

I'm not bothered how good or bad a team is we play, i will always go if its wihin a reasonable travelling distance

You're lucky you can drive a reasonably short distance to see decent football. The closest football I can watch is 6 miles away, but the quality is absolutely shocking. I've only been able to get over to see United once. That was in November when we beat Sparta Prague 4-1 and Ruud scored 4 :)

/lives in Northern Ireland.

[metal-militia]

I've seen United more times than you :D

6-3 ring any bells? :cool: :D Yes, i was there

[jaymz_is_god]

I've seen United more times than you :D

6-3 ring any bells? :cool: :D Yes, i was there


Oh yeah. It was the kit's fault.... :rolleyes: ....of course. :lol: That was actually pretty funny. That seems like ages ago now. When was it?

[MILF Hunter]

I've never been to a Premiership game, The closest was probably Darlo V Leeds about 5 years ago

[Rancid Dan]

I barely see matches, i've seen Newcastle - Derby, we won 4-3 and i saw the matc against Spurs this season, we lost 1-0. SJP is amazing.

I might see the FA cup tie though, i've seen loads of Halifax matches (my Dad supports them )

[MILF Hunter]

Are you from Newcastle?

[woodsinho]

I've been to a few premiership games the last one being newcastle v 'boro a couple of years ago when we won 2-1 (i think it was 2-1) even though phil stamp got sent off. Shame i was stuck with the toon fans and couldn't celebrate without risking my life :(

First game was 'boro v Everton back in the '92/'93 season, we lost 2-1 and continued losing until we got relegated.

[Rancid Dan]

No, Lincolnshire.

If i was from Newcastle i would see more games.

[MILF Hunter]

Ah right. How much is it for a Prem game?

[jaymz_is_god]

Couldn't tell you but I paid £21 for a Champions League ticket and I was behind the goal in the fourth row.

[Rancid Dan]

I reckon at SJP, it can be around 30 - 40 ounds, but i varys at what stand your at and who your playing against.

They are too expensive.

[MILF Hunter]

Bloody Hell, who can afford 30-40 pound a week. My ticket is 7 :D

[Rancid Dan]

Yeah, the joys of lower league football.

[Firecracker]

CHELSEA LOST!!!

Oh i am so happy!

[metal-militia]

Oh yeah. It was the kit's fault.... :rolleyes: ....of course. :lol: That was actually pretty funny. That seems like ages ago now. When was it?

No, that was the 3-1 the season before :D

I saw United win the league at the Dell ahile back... think it was 3-1, someone scored a free kick and Neil Moss was in goal.

[ChodaBoy]

I got loads of free tickets coz my cousin didnt want to go (he had a season ticket). The seat was on the front row and once i shouted at Paul Dickov - the legend - and he looked over at me with a dirty look. Personally i think he fancied me.

[metal-militia]

CHELSEA LOST!!!

Oh i am so happy!

That was like, so yesterday :rolleyes: :p

:lol:

I've met Matt Le Tisser (the legend himself) a few times, and i have a sgined shirt of his.

[Firecracker]

That was like, so yesterday :rolleyes: :p
Sowwy! Just wasn't here yesterday.

[metal-militia]

Sowwy! Just wasn't here yesterday.


:p You're forgiven

But yeah, it was a good result

[ChodaBoy]

Any one have any predictions for tonight?
I think Arsenal will draw, Liverpool i dont know about because they are injury prone.

[upthebracket]

Bayern Munich v Arsenal
Liverpool v Bayer Leverkusen
PSV v Monaco
Real Madrid v Juventus


Tonight's games... predictions bolded.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

/dons netural spectator hat for coming fixtures.


I can see Liverpool slipping up in their tie, Arsenal will do well as long as they keep a clean sheet till at least half time. And Juve/madrid should be a good game to watch, unless its played in the Italian style

[KappaKid17]

Bayern Munich
Bayern Leverkusen
PSV
Juventus

Juventus will be hurting, however, if they're without Nedved. It took me a few to really weigh the options for that match against Real.

[duffroxmysox]

/dont really care who wins in any match tonight, but I've been to Bayern Munich, ran round the pitch and toured all inside, good ol' Kahn :)

[/random]

[metal-militia]

Bayern Munich 2 - 1 Arsenal
Liverpool 1 - 1 Leverkusen
PSV 0-1 Monaco
Real Madrid 3 - 2 Juventus

I always back Monaco, and i thought they would knock Real out last season, even after they lost the first leg.

[Rancid Dan]

Liverpool haven't got a chance without Gerrard or Morientes.

Bayern Munich will edge Arsenal.

PSV will just beat Monaco.

Juventus will easily beat Real.

[darkavatar]

Liverpool haven't got a chance without Gerrard or Morientes.

Bayern Munich will edge Arsenal.

PSV will just beat Monaco.

Juventus will easily beat Real.

I would have to disagree with you on the Arsenal and Real games.

[Rancid Dan]

I'm not sure about Arsenal as they are poor in Europe and Roy Mackay is in top form.

Juve seem to have a more togetherness than Real and i think theyu will beat them, Real can be quite poor.

[metal-militia]

Getting ready to go to the saints match :)

Brought old some old good luck saints charms, so now we will DEFFINATELY win :D

wish saints luck :thumb:

[jaymz_is_god]

I think Bayern will beat Arsenal tonight, but the Highbury leg will be different. I can see Liverpool winning.

PSV and Real will go through in the other ties.

[Ganondorf]

Getting ready to go to the saints match :)

Brought old some old good luck saints charms, so now we will DEFFINATELY win :D

wish saints luck :thumb:

Good luck....try not to get beaten TOO badly ;)

[Rancid Dan]

Who are they playing ?

[devils_night]

go on www.nufc.com the second article down, about the mysterious number 10, sure made me laugh

[devils_night]

New England home shirt comes out at the end of March, there taking pre-orders from the FA site, but don't let you see what it looks like, bastards

[Rancid Dan]

I'm gonna get the new toon home shirt next season with either Kluivert or Jenas on the back.

I haven't had a Newcastle shirt in ages.

[Rancid Dan]

Wow a few shock scores :

Bayern Munich already winning and so are Liverpool.

[jaymz_is_god]

Anyone watching the Arsenal game? 3-0 Bayern. I was expecting them to win, but not by this much. Haha, not that I'm complaining.

[Ganondorf]

WBA vs Saints was 0-0

Not really suprising, WBA have the worst home record, Saints have the worst away record. Ah well...

[devils_night]

3-1 to Bayern Munich, ha. What was the Liverpool score?

[upthebracket]

3-1 Liverpool. Good on them, shame they conceded a late goal.

[devils_night]

Darlo and Pools both won as well, good night if you ask me

[ChodaBoy]

The Arsenal game was shocking, they played terrible. Im glad the scousers won though, we needed one english team to do well.

[sting-ray]

i think arsenal's late goal was huge..


ps i think someone should/could make a thread about this..

[ChodaBoy]

What...

[sting-ray]

champions league

[ChodaBoy]

Ok.

I cant wait for the Chelsea/Barca game later on, i hope Barca give them a thorough whooping of the anus, they deserve to get trashed after all this time. Especially after they lost to Newcastle, any bad results can onlt affect their confidence and let the lead slip away.

[MILF Hunter]

Darlo won! Im so happy, it was bloody cold last night aswell

[metal-militia]

Warning:
Never eat dodgy steak and kidney pies at WBA as i have found out what it can do to you the next morning :angry:

Saints should've won, but Prutton somehow missed an open goal. Saints support was fantastic, and the home fans hardly sang at all.

Suprised that Liverpool won so easily in CL, and i haven't seen the Arsenal game but apparently they were awful.

[upthebracket]

Barcelona v Chelsea 1-1
FC Porto v Inter Milan 1-2
Man Utd v AC Milan 2-0
Werder Bremen v Lyon 0-0

Spew your predictions here. I see a few low score draws tonight. Shame Werder Bremen and Lyon were drawn together...




edit: add'd scores...

[Rancid Dan]

Barcalona v Chelsea
FC Porto v Inter Milan
Man Utd v AC Milan
Werder Bremen v Lyon - haven't got a clue !

I hope Man U win as i have a 5 pound bet on them winning with the Chip Butty man.

[jaymz_is_god]

Barcelona (12)2-0(0) Chelsea
FC Porto 1-2 Inter
United (16)1-0(0) Milan
Werder Bremen 2-1 Lyon

My predicted scores. My optimistic scores in brackets.

[metal-militia]

Gotta love your optimisim. I would love a 14-14 draw in any match thats watchable tonight

[devils_night]

Darlo won! Im so happy, it was bloody cold last night aswell

Sure was, I was gonna go but decided to stay in instead, catch up on some coursework

[ChodaBoy]

If you know me its obvious im not a Chelsea fan, but i wonder why Mourinho keeps playing Drogba, he never scores. I bet Marsielle laughed all the way to the bank when they sold him.

[upthebracket]

I thought Drogba was a great signing at the time. The price tag flattered him a bit, but on the back of his European performances last season he looked immense. He could still become a great player, so Mourinho's maybe right to stick with him.

then again, we're talking about Chelsea here.... they should be looking for instant fixes for their millions.

[ChodaBoy]

God help the Chelsea player that scores an own goal!
He'd be out of there quicker than he can say "It wasn't my faul...."

[bassman04]

Barcelona 2-1 Chelsea
Porto 1-2 Inter Milan
United 2-1 Milan
Werder Bremen 2-2 Lyon

[Ganondorf]

Good start for Chelsea

[revolution]

YESSSSS!!!! 2-0 to Forest with 8 mins to go!!! Surely we can't throw it away now!

[jaymz_is_god]

**** Hernan Crespo. **** him right in his big, Argentine arse.

[metal-militia]

Looks like United will struggle to get through now. Chelsea still have a fairly good chance after getting the away goal.

[jaymz_is_god]

F*cking right we'll struggle. We need to win at the San Siro. Not gonna happen.

[Distorted Vision]

**** Roy Carroll more like. I do despair, why do our keepers get so bad after more than a season?

[upthebracket]

Blundering keepers seem to be the 'in thing' at the moment.... 3/4 of the English teams' keepers blundered in the last few nights :eek:

Very harsh sending off for Drogba... super sub from Barca, the return should be good.

[ChodaBoy]

Im pleased with the results, United and Chelsea losing on the same night!

Its not looking good for English teams though, only 1 of 4 winning.
Arsenal were sloppy, Barca owned Chelsea, and AC had uber passing compared to United.

I dont blame the keepers anymore, messing up is occuring too much now to single out any, stopping shots is supposed to be harder than ever because of the ring on the ball, and its one of the lightest balls ever. therefore its hard for the keeper to control and so much more easier for a player attacking the ball.

[sting-ray]

i was almost crying when werder Lost 3-0 at home.. its pretty much over now..
I'm happy with Inter's 1-1 tie ... they'll pull out 3 points at the san siro

[sting-ray]

i can only hope that werder can win 3-0, 4-1 or something like that in France now..

[upthebracket]

That's a lot to ask... Lyon are a good side... Juninho ripped Celtic apart last time we played them. Mind you Werder did pretty well to come through from their group, so there's much to be proud of already

I'm hoping for a Milan-Barca final now. Would make Celtic look a bit more respectable...

[sting-ray]

werder have the ability to beat Lyon... it was just a disgusting performance... they just collapsed near the end... I mean werder beat Valencia and played wonderfully in their home leg against Inter but came out with a draw... these are top world-class teams.. I think werder will win in france but scoring 4 goals is a long shot..

[Adam Jones is GOD]

YESSSSS!!!! 2-0 to Forest with 8 mins to go!!! Surely we can't throw it away now!

It suddenly looks a bit more rosy now. 2 games in hand on almost the rest of the divison and 6 points from safety. And we won at home, that must happen more often


(I guess fat players can still win matches :D )

[ChodaBoy]

Maybe selling Reid and Dawson was a blessing in disguise.

[revolution]

Just as long as Commons doesn't follow them

[Rancid Dan]

What ?

I want all the English teams to go through.

Newcastle are winning 2-0. Olympiakos won so we will be playing them, not an easy match but we should be able to win them.

I thought Chelsea did well considering they only had 10 men.

I owe the chip butty man a fiver now as Man Utd lost :(

[metal-militia]

Rancid, he meant Kris Commons

Watching boro atm, 1-1, 3-3 on agg.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Just as long as Commons doesn't follow them

Commons = Gift from above. his goals make our game highlights watchable

Newcastle I see are finishing off their last easyish game in Europe this season. Not looking easy with the teams in the next round

[Rancid Dan]

I mean from Choda boy saying he was pleased with the english teams losing.

[Rancid Dan]

Yeah, we have Olympiakos next round.

We just let in a penalty.

[ChodaBoy]

Im not pleased with english teams losing, its just that i dont like those two clubs -United obviously coz im a City fan and i just dont like Chelski

Im glad about Boro and Newc going through, lets hope one of them wins it

[KappaKid17]

**** Roy Carroll more like. I do despair, why do our keepers get so bad after more than a season?


Interesting point...

Although if you remember the blunder during the Chelsea(?) - Man U game a couple months ago that Howard got drilled for by the press, it really wasn't his fault. Even Fergie said that the defense should've cleared out the ball on that cross and Howard was just hung out to dry. Anyways, I'd like to see United start giving him more ground. He's proved he can play well before.

[KappaKid17]

Wow, I just realized my predictions sucked for this round.

Bayern, Barcelona, and PSV were the only three winner's I'd guessed.

[metal-militia]

I feel a bit sorry for Howard. I don't think he's an amazing keeper, but he's better than Carrol, and gets a lot of stick for past performances.

[Rancid Dan]

I can't even remember Howard doing anything bad.

[metal-militia]

I can't see Chelsea slipping, they have so much squad depth, so a quality player is injured and is replaced by another quality player.

Who's going to watch Saints vs Arsenal on TV tommorow... lunchtime K.O.

Interesting fact: Saints haven't lost at home since September or something, and i don't think they've lost when they have been on TV.

[whatduffhuck7]

it sucks living in the us with not good soccer leagues. only thing on tv is fox sports world. thats cool though. but for the big games you gotta buy on ppv

[Rancid Dan]

Chelsea must win.

I hate Liverpool with a passion, a lot of my friends support them and they are always arguing with me over Liverpool and Newcastle.

[billiejoe84]

OMG How come I never noticed this thread?

/me is a mega footy fan

[metal-militia]

Anyone watch Saints vs Arsenal?

I thought it would be 1-1, and Lehman cocked up for Arsenal, gifting us the goal :)

Shame Prutton was sent off though, a bit too enthusiastic

[ChodaBoy]

Van Persie is a sadistic player, he always looks happy with himself if he has done something bad to someone. I was glad Southampton got a point coz i dont wanna see them go down, but i wish it wasnt against arsenal. Looks like City are gonna have to whoop Norwich now on Monday (Show them whos boss!).

[metal-militia]

Van Persie elbowed Delap in the face :angry:

At least someone here want us to stay up :thumb:

[Rancid Dan]

OMG How come I never noticed this thread?

/me is a mega footy fan

Welcome to the greatest thread in the world.

Arsenal have seriously lost the plot now.
No offence to The Saints but Arsenal should have won.

Van Persie and Fabregas are two of the dirtiest players in the premiership.

COME ON TOON , We need 3 points tomoroow to keep the pressure on teams such as Villa, Bolton and Middlesborough.

[Citizen_Erased24]

Was at Bournemouth vs Tranmere today, dissappointing 1-1

Cmon Bournemouth, still in the playoffs

[metal-militia]

Arsenal have seriously lost the plot now.
No offence to The Saints but Arsenal should have won.

Van Persie and Fabregas are two of the dirtiest players in the premiership.



Yes, i know we could have easily lost, but if Prutton hadn't have gone i don't think Arsenal would've scored, as time was added on for his sending off and they played more than the 3 minutes, plus an extra man helps.

Yes Arsenal are dirty, and under Wenger they have got something like 60 red cards :amaze:

Prutton was saints first red card this seaon.

Still can't believe how well Bolton have played this season, i never thought they'd do this well.

[metal-militia]

Was at Bournemouth vs Tranmere today, dissappointing 1-1

Cmon Bournemouth, still in the playoffs

Go Cherries!

Is Neil Moss still playing?

[ChodaBoy]

What do ya'll think of Andy Johnson? I think hes good, but over-rated, people talk about him getting 16/17 this season, but look at how many are penalties. It takes composure to take a penatly but 10 out of 11 players from a team could score from the spot.

[davey]

talikng of arsenal being a dirty team heres some facts for you:
The most booked defender in the premiership is ashley cole
The two midfielders with the most cards are vieira and parlour
Th most booked striker is paul dickov.
All of them play for arsenal or have played for arsenal at some point in thier carrer!!!

[davey]

Welcome to the greatest thread in the world.

COME ON TOON , We need 3 points tomoroow to keep the pressure on teams such as Villa, Bolton and Middlesborough.

Yeah in know fabregas has got about 5 or 6 yellow cards this season and did you see that crunching challenge he did on a sheffield united player in the fa cup the other week! Ouchie!
Van persie is just a nutter! Hes only about 20 or 21 but if he keeps going on the way he is with that temperament of his then well.......

[Ganondorf]

Predictions for the Carling Cup final then?

Chelsea to win.....

[metal-militia]

What do ya'll think of Andy Johnson? I think hes good, but over-rated, people talk about him getting 16/17 this season, but look at how many are penalties. It takes composure to take a penatly but 10 out of 11 players from a team could score from the spot.

I Agree

I think Chelsea will win 2-1

[upthebracket]

3-2 Chelsea. I've got a feeling Liverpool might sneak it though after midweek.

[ChodaBoy]

Im gonna say 2-1 Liverpool, Chelsea have the better players but i have a strange feeling about Liverpool.They've managed to challenge for Champions League despite alot of injury's.

[Rancid Dan]

WAHEY Newcastle 2 -1 Bolton

Newcastle have finally found there form this season and we should win the majority of our remaining games to push for UEFA hopefully.

And talk about ironic, all the transfer speculation between Gerrard and Chelsea and he's just scored an own goal !

I hope Chelsea win.

They deserve something and in my eyes Liverpool deserve NOTHING.

[ChodaBoy]

omfg, Chelsea are seriously the luckiest team ever! 2 incredibly scrappy goals and an own goal. :upset: :o

[Untitled]

Hey adam, a proper sport starts on friday.

/runs away.

[metal-militia]

Chelsea may have dominated that game, but their goals were awful. I feel sorry for Gerrard, he trys so hard and he scored a needless own goal, when 2 other Liverpools players were going for the ball. I just didn't want Chelsea to win so that arrogant dickhead Mourinho wouldn't be spouting some ****e. :angry: Fair play to Chelsea though, they were the better team.

[ChodaBoy]

Dont drag other sports into this thread.

Whoever said money cant buy happiness, never thought of Abramovich's money.

Chelsea were by far the better team, but i thought Pool did well to keep them out. Mourinho should definately be fined and banned from the touchline, you cant mock the crowd like he did, and he continuosly told Carragher to f'uck off. Unacceptable but funny

[MILF Hunter]

Darlo are ****ing ****e, im so annoyed with how inconsistent they are, and how much if a stupid ****ing bellend hodgy is

[Rancid Dan]

Well done Chelsea and Newcastle !

[jaymz_is_god]

Aw well, Chelsea won. I don't really care. I hate both teams.

[Ganondorf]

Well done Chelsea.

[Iai]

I just have to say right now that Jose Mourinho is an absolute legend. Did anyone else watch the interview with him on Sky Sports following the match? Seriously, what a hero.

[Iai]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/league_cup/4296791.stm

That's for those who didn't see it.

He said all this with a straight face and an almost evil determination. It was really funny.

Also, his comments about not having to prove himself is another example of a theme I'm noticing - Mourinho and Fergie ganging up on Wenger. Which I love, because I hate Arsenal.

[metalman69]

any skins fans in here????

[whatduffhuck7]

Aw well, Chelsea won. I don't really care. I hate both teams.
chealsea is a great team just becuase there 2nd line could beat some teams in the preimership. aston villa is also one of my favs too. i like angel. hes a good player, but there not doing to well this year

That's for those who didn't see it.

He said all this with a straight face and an almost evil determination. It was really funny.

Also, his comments about not having to prove himself is another example of a theme I'm noticing - Mourinho and Fergie ganging up on Wenger. Which I love, because I hate Arsenal.
why do you hate arsenal, Becuase there good?

[GibsonRocker90]

uuuh... what kind of football are you guys talkin about, as far as i know, theres no world cup in football but theres on for "soccer".

[ChodaBoy]

Soccer does not exist, Football does, and so does American "Football".

The world cup is next year, i think England have a pretty good chance this time. 2002 against Brazil we didnt really have much chance against them, but we werent that bad - got 1 goal. The squad has alot more speed in it this time around, and more natural goalscorers.

[agar]

why do you hate arsenal, Becuase there good?

arsenal are complete ****

i'm a man u fan

[guitarbaz]

I just have to say right now that Jose Mourinho is an absolute legend. Did anyone else watch the interview with him on Sky Sports following the match? Seriously, what a hero.

i didn't see it as i was flying back from italy but i think the bloke is an arrogant arse. i've been arguing with one of my mates on this subject, he thinks he's just a confident manager. i just think he's an arse and needs to learn a bit of humility. even after we kicked his arse last weekend he still had the bare faced cheek to say they were the better team. unf.ucking believable.
i was hoping liverpool were going to turn them over yesterday too, just to compound their miserable week, but you can't have everything eh? as a toon fan i know that all too well!

[Britney Diva]

Was anybody else expecting Steven Gerrard to pull off his Liverpool shirt after his goal to reveal a Chelsea one in a truly WWF-esque turn of events?

[ChodaBoy]

I would have paid money just to see him wear a Chelsea shirt in that kind of scenario. It does seem very WWE style, like Stone Cold with Tyson in '98

Mourinho is a sore loser, Barca beat them so Chelsea came out with all this poo about the ref being friendly with Frank Rijkaard?! He needs a serious head check if he thinks two people talking means they are plotting against him.

[Iai]

i think the bloke is an arrogant arse.
That's exactly why he's so great!

[Iai]

why do you hate arsenal, Becuase there good?
I assume what you meant to type was this.

Why do you hate Arsenal? Because they're good?

No, it's not because they're good. It's because I hate the French.

/satire

[jaymz_is_god]

why do you hate arsenal, Becuase there good?

Who said Arsenal were good? :lol:

[ChodaBoy]

Got a point there, they're too inconsistent. Last year - unbeatable, this year...well...s'hit.

[jaymz_is_god]

Haha, and we started it all. They came to Old Trafford and were apparently 'unbeatable'. Seems not. Then Liverpool beat them. You know you've reached a low when that happens.

[ChodaBoy]

Who do you all expect to get into Champions League and UEFA this season, and more importantly who will get relegated.

[jaymz_is_god]

Champions League:
Manchester United
Chelsea
Arsenal
Everton

UEFA Cup (not sure of how many places England gets):
Liverpool
Middlesbrough

Relegated:
Southampton
Norwich
West Brom

[Britney Diva]

Isn't there only one UEFA Cup place from the League, and one for each cup? I remember Everton missing out last season by coming 6th.

I agree with your CL picks. Liverpool already have a UEFA Cup place, so I'd put it between Middlesborough and Tottenham for the last place, though Bolton and Charlton can't be ruled out.

[ChodaBoy]

you can also get in through the fair play league just like City, oh how we got stick for that!

[Rancid Dan]

Yeah, only one UEFA cup place in the league.

If we win the UEFA Cup then we will be in it next year.

[metal-militia]

CL:
Chelsea
United
Arsenal
Everton

Uefa:
Liverpool
Boro

Relegated:
Palace
Norwich
WBA

Still think Saints will stay up, and hopefully City will put a few past Norwich tonight.

[ChodaBoy]

Boro and Boro?!

Yea i hope City get some, Norwich are one of those annoying teams that can score and ruin everything. If we are going to pose any threat to the other teams going for UEFA, we need to win this if not, i cant see us getting in this season.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

i didn't see it as i was flying back from italy but i think the bloke is an arrogant arse.

he reminds me of Brian Clough, So he has a soft spot for me so far. its when he starts becoming a arrogant foreign manager fully that ill begrudge him (where he starts classing italians, french, spanish, etc as better than english players). And as i have seen no evidence so far, just look at his captain choice and current first teams.

[Rancid Dan]

Wahey Norwich are beating Man City 2 - 0

If Man City are to win they would go ahead of us.

I aslo like Norwich for some reason, they seem to be a good team and have a good team spirit.

[ChodaBoy]

2-2 at the moment, just like i said earlier they're one of those annoying teams. Norwich are one of those annoying teams that can score and ruin everything. (See i did say it). City are playing ok but i wouldnt count Norwich out.

[MILF Hunter]

I dont want Palace to go down, I like Dowie, Hes a good manager

[ChodaBoy]

Can someone tell me what these fans say whenever a goalkeeper takes a goal kick? i hear it at loads of different stadiums but can never make out what they say.

[ChodaBoy]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What a match that was. I hope the Brummies and Southamption fans are happy, i know i am!

[davser]

Jermaine Pennant jailed for 3 months for drink driving.

What is it with Arsenal players and getting jailed for DD?! :lol:

[metal-militia]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What a match that was. I hope the Brummies and Southamption fans are happy, i know i am!

Yes, i am happy :D

speaking of laughing at keepers, at WBA everytime Hoult took a goal kick all he got was oooooo YOU SKATE BASTARD! :lol:

[Rancid Dan]

Bloody Norwich can't hold onto a 2-0 lead.
City have gone into the top half now...

I really hope Southampton win tonight in 90 mins or i'll lose a tenner.

[ChodaBoy]

They should able to beat Brentford, they have a newfound confidence at the moment.

[Rancid Dan]

Yeah, they are playing well.

I have 20 quid on Newcastle - Spurs (If they beat forest) / gulp.

[Ganondorf]

Yes, i am happy :D

speaking of laughing at keepers, at WBA everytime Hoult took a goal kick all he got was oooooo YOU SKATE BASTARD! :lol:


I don't get it :(

Delia Smith :lol:

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Im really wnating us to win tommorrow, but if we do, its setting us up for an execution in the next round.

It always happens against spurs in the cup, if we beat them, the team in the next round will be an on form team who are likely to put several past us.

[Rancid Dan]

Yes, we will exterminate you in the quarter finals :)

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Ifwe were at home, i would ahve been a little bit confident (if commons has another blinder)

But at St james, urgh. Its going to be our toughest, most devoted fans going there.

Of course, we wont get past spurs to be thrashed in any case

[MILF Hunter]

Arsenal game tonight should be good, what with Arsenal having no recognizable striker :lol:

[jaymz_is_god]

Haha, yeah. Come on Sheffield United! I can really see them winning tonight.

[Rancid Dan]

If they win, the FA Cup will really be a 2 horse race.

Newcastle and Man U

[ChodaBoy]

But if Arsenal win, i dont think they will be any competition for the other teams.

[Rancid Dan]

Yes there will.

[jaymz_is_god]

Arsenal will get nowhere near any silverware this season. It will either be United, Newcastle or possibly Spurs to win the FA Cup.

[Rancid Dan]

Arsenal will get nowhere near any silverware this season. It will be Newcastle to win the FA Cup.

True.

[ChodaBoy]

Lovely edit. It will be United or Newc.

[Rancid Dan]

Thank you.

Rep + for all the reg posters in the football thread.

[jaymz_is_god]

Thank you.

Rep + for all the reg posters in the football thread.

Where's mine? :(

[ChodaBoy]

and mine :(

some biznatches from the F1 forum took all mine away 'cause theyre moody.

[Rancid Dan]

Sorry i forgot to do it.

[ChodaBoy]

Thanks, when i get it on the + side, i'll send some your way.

[Rancid Dan]

I can't do everyone because i need to spread some.

[ChodaBoy]

you'd be suprised how often i hear that.

The Arsenal/Sheff. Utd game is a bit dull, nothing more than what i expected.

[metal-militia]

I don't get it :(

Delia Smith :lol:

Russel Hoult played for Portsmouth, who saints fans call skates.

Saints drawing 1-1 with Brentford at the moment, and playing a bit of a weaker side. Arsenal game is fairly uneventful.

[Rancid Dan]

My god, Delah Smith was embarassing.

'COME ON, LETS HAVE YA'

[ChodaBoy]

On Sky Sports they interviewed local people from Norwich and one guy said "Its embarassing, its like your mum shouting while your playing a match". i found it very humourous.

[jaymz_is_god]

I was embarrased for her. Stupid old bitch.

Anyone see Hyde's goal for Burnley? Twas a screamer.

[jaymz_is_god]

The Arsenal game has just gone into extra-time. Come on Sheffield United!

Southampton won 3-1, so we've got a trip to St. Mary's in the next round. Could be worse.

[ChodaBoy]

Yep, you could have Watford.

Arsenal are badly gonna lose this now, i think it will go to penalties though.

[metal-militia]

Fear the fortress that is St Marys!! :D

Arsenal game has got more exciting at last.

[MILF Hunter]

Penaltys :eek:

[sting-ray]

Inter lost for the first time this weekend... pretty stupid..

[guitarbaz]

On Sky Sports they interviewed local people from Norwich and one guy said "Its embarassing, its like your mum shouting while your playing a match". i found it very humourous.

it really made me cringe. coming on the pitch and shouting at the crowd in a very refined, queen-like accent to "let's be having yew" was the most ridiculous thing i've seen in a long while. and i know ridiculous. just look at my avatar. been there. :rolleyes:

[Rage_Against_The_PC]

[QUOTE=metal-militia]Russel Hoult played for Portsmouth, who saints fans call skates.

yeah its true , some pathectic name that scummers call us :thumb:

apparnlty we s*ag fish ! , supprised pompey has a sea life center if thats the case
:lol:

[billiejoe84]

Did anyone see Micah Hyde's goal against Blackburn? That was absolutely insane. Shame they couldn't go on to win it though... (No offence to any Blackburn fans, I just always root for the underdog)

[ChodaBoy]

Nope, I missed it. But i sure did see Fowlers second against Norwich and i still laugh at it. The defense never even tried.

[Rage_Against_The_PC]

yeah that was a cracking goal!

that replay was 10 times better than the orginal game ! , unlucky burnley

[Rancid Dan]

As if Arsenal won !

Sheffs keeper was amazing, shame we was crap for the penaltys.

Bolton should beat them at The Reebok stadium.

[billiejoe84]

What happened in the Arse game last night? I started playing the football drinking game with my mates while watching it, but we ended up getting really drunk and started playing the Mario Kart drinking game instead.

[Rancid Dan]

It wen't to penaltys and Arsenal score 4 out of 4 and Sheff missed 2. :(

[upthebracket]

If only that Sheff Utd. guy had scored that chance in the first minute.... Sheff Utd. deserved to go through. I was gutted for them (as a neutral...).

[Rancid Dan]

Yeah, same here.

Congrats on the stars.

You are a pompey fan? :angry:

Arsenal were lucky. Almunia kept them in the game, and if that guy hadn't messed up after 40 seconds Sheff would've probably won.

Prutton has been banned for 10 matches and fined 6k :upset: Bit harsh even if he lost control, i think 6 games is sufficent.

[whatduffhuck7]

what happend in the arsenal vs south hampton game. i saw it on espn 2 so it mus of been a close game to be on espn 2.

[ChodaBoy]

The FA Cup road for Forest is over, they were unlucky to not get the win last time. But looking at the stats from the game, Spurs were clearly in control of this one and te result shows it.

[metal-militia]

1-1, with a player sent off for both teams.

btw prutton is a dirty *thinks of a word beginning with B * and deserves what he gets, why was he complaining , even harry thought he was a dumbass, hes a pilliock for even raising his hands and then attacking the ref!!! :lol:

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Well, we got through 90 minutes with no big injuries, but it shows that we still cant defend corners at all. maybe we should get some help from the Arsenal defence at how to defend set pieces.





Oh shi..

[jaymz_is_god]

True, but he's been charged for 2 things which i think should be the equivilent of 2 red cards (6 games).

How can you say Spurs will beat Saints!? :amaze: Spurs have 8 away goals this season, and Saints haven't lost at home since September, so i think it will be a Saints 1-0 win or a 0-0 draw. I hope you're predictions are right about the United and Norwichs games though. :thumb:

[upthebracket]

Why's Prutton banned for so long? :confused:
edit: ah I just read it there. 10 games is a bit harsh...

Arsenal 3-0 Portsmouth
Aston Villa 0-1 Middlesbrough
Crystal Palace 2-3 Man Utd
Fulham 1-1 Charlton
Newcastle 2-2 Liverpool
Norwich 0-2 Chelsea
Southampton 1-1 Tottenham

Everton 2-1 Blackburn
West Brom 1-1 Birmingham

Man City 1-2 Bolton

I'll throw my predictions in.

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Only one game im concerned with this weekend.

Although I predict bad things.

[Drumma]

Arsenal 3-1 Portsmouth
Aston Villa 0-3 Middlesbrough
Crystal Palace 0-2 Man Utd
Fulham 0-0 Charlton
Newcastle 2-3 Liverpool
Norwich 0-3 Chelsea
Southampton 1-3 Tottenham

Everton 2-0 Blackburn
West Brom 0-2 Birmingham

Man City 2-2 Bolton

[metal-militia]

Southampton 1-3 Tottenham


No, just no...

Upthebracket: Finally, someone who agrees with me.

Come on, Newcastle will KICK *** !

I managed to get a ten pound bet on Man U vs. C Palace.

I'm on Man U to win

Easy money.

Yeah, so far i've won a fiver and lost a fiver.

He supports Spurs so were putting 20 quid on the FA Cup tie.

[ChodaBoy]

I dont see why they have moved the FA Cup final to a wednesday, one of the best parts of the weekend was watching Fa Cup at lunch time, not 7:45.
I dont think it would have killed Sven to have a 3 1/2 week break instead of a 4 week.

It's still on a Saturday, just a week earlier. And it's only for next season, because of the World Cup.

[ChodaBoy]

Oh ok, i thought it was on a wednesday because of what was said a few weeks ago.

I'm getting most things wrong tonight, i might just go to bed.

[Rage_Against_The_PC]

Why's Prutton banned for so long? :confused:

MEH !! :upset:

[Rancid Dan]

As if Man U drew, i've lost a fiver now.

But most importantly:

NEWCASTLE BEAT LIVERPOOL

That is the best win of the season for me as i have so many friends who support Liverpool, and i can rip the piss put of them now.

We are in a decent postion for UEFA and maybe Champs league now.

[MILF Hunter]

Darlington beat Boston
Hartlepool got beat by a team in the relegation zone (Wrexham) 6-4!!!

Life is great
