Strange ain't it, without knowing whats hes like you would think Carra would be perfect for picking up 4 or 5 goals a season from corners/free kicks but hes rarely ever managed 1, as you say its not only him though, others are poor and some just seem to have the knack for it, or want it more? fuck knows to be honest.

 

In the end benitez didn't even bother sending Carragher up for set pieces. I think he still has more own goals than goals.

David Luiz is turning into a right dirty individual. But yesterday, and on previous occasions (two horrible elbow challenges I recall) he's been described as 'naughty'. I don't get it. Is it the hair?

Robben transfer listed by Bayern as Guardiola makes his mark, apparently.

Agent Provocateur off here hit the nail on the head' date=' mate- biggest small club in the world.

 

I really don't understand the mentality of their fans. The winning isn't enough so they have to remind everyone who shit they are. Why the fuck would you arse yourself singing songs about your rivals when you're not playing them or have banners on your most famous stand counting down the last time your neighbours won a trophy?

 

Embarrassingly small time behaviour.

 

Oh, and quite funny how it's all gone quiet on that green and gold front ever since another title became visible on the horizon. No doubt they'll start it up again next time they go a season without winning it.

 

Fucking despise them. Vile, vile club.[/quote']

 

Unfortunately mate, I can still remember laughing at t-shirts being sold around the Kop re united's 26 years without the league. Seemed funny as fuck at the time. End of the day everyone enjoys rubbing their enemies nose in it, don't recall us having quite as many songs about them. But can remember the Bryan robson's got vd song as a kid in the Albert after a night match. Now it seems to have "didn't we almost have it all "as a soundtrack!

And 'The Famous Man United Went To Rome To See The Pope' song.

That is and always will be a great fucking song though!

Just watching Soccer Saturday on Sky. That Bianca Westwood they have reporting from football matches. What's the point of her? She's perpetually devoid of any facts, trips over her words, says "erm" every other word and generally hasn't a fucking clue what's going on. I'm assuming Sky have a female reporter quota to fill, that's the only explanation I can fathom for her involvement in football. There must be other women who could do her job a shitload better than her.

 

She'd get a game though in fairness.

Oh, Wigan.

So if it's a draw then both QPR and Reading are definitely down...managers should toss a coin in the final minute and let the winner score.

No he doesn't, he's wealthier.

qpr down, tfft, hate hairy dednap. but think man city will want him, so nightcat can forget about bren going there.....

[Chocoholic]

Sky and BBC saying both QPR and Reading are relegated, but, as I see it, they're not.

 

In the extremely unlikely event of them both winning all of their remaining three games, they would be on 34 points with an improved goal difference. Aston Villa are already on 34 points with a similar goal difference. If Villa play their remaining 4 games and lose all of them, then with the same amount of points, their goal difference would take them below either QPR or Reading.

 

They maybe as good as, but until it's absolutely mathematically impossible, it cannot be stated categorically that they are relegated.

 

Or am I missing something?

I was thinking the same thing.

 

If Wigan and Villa lose all their games, and Reading and QPR win all theirs, Reading or QPR will stay up??

Wigan play Villa on final day so yes they ARE relegated

[UnwelcomeinPeru]

Of course. See it now.

[Gym Beglin]

Either team, any players worth taking?

 

I'm looking at it purely hypothetically mind.

 

Not sure there is. And we're talking about bolstering the squad of a team that will likely finish 8th this season, not being able to identify one player (aside from possible Remy) capable of playing for us.

[Chocoholic]

Thanks for the explanation, Bizzle. I didn't think of looking at the fixtures for all teams involved.

8th?

[Reckoner]

Can we qualify for Europa if we finish 7th?

[kalasoma]

Hmm an early offside goal given against United? That doesn't happen every day.

[boomer39]

come on the "arse"... 1-0 already...

Nobody gives a fuck that United won the title, I love that.

 

The more I think about it, the more I think that United aren't bent. In short, the FA judge everyone else the same but are not as quick to interfere with United. It's not a level playing field but it's not United's fault, it's the fault of an FA who are unfit for purpose.

I'd love to hammer a nail into Evra's ankle.
