Yes, very glad that Liverpool has finally gotten their first win. Too bad they don't show any EPL over in the US, at least not on regular cable.

Pity about the long international break though. might rob them of their momentum, or touch wood, lead to injuries..

almostaugust · 09-02-2003, 04:53 PM

Yeah im glad Liverpool won, im not sure if Houllier's heart could have taken much more.
Arsenal do look good indeed.

almostaugust · 09-04-2003, 04:35 AM

Hey there is a site called uglyfootballers.com. Luke Chadwick features heavily here.

djflish · 09-08-2003, 09:11 AM

i know this is an premier league thread, but i thought this would be the best place to mention how spectacularly shit England were against Macedonia.

What the fuck is going on?!! Eriksson just can't get the best from the great players he has at his disposal

almostaugust · 09-09-2003, 06:28 AM

Yeah, maybe Erickson has had his day. The poms are funny though, unless thier team is scoring bycycle kicks in the world cup final they are pretty much permanently disgruntled with the way thier squad is performing.
I do like the songs they bring out every now and then though.... remeber that 'Footballs Coming Home' jingle, that was a cracker.

Sunday 21st September 2003 - The Big One

Manchester United Vs. Arsenal

C'mon the Gunners!!!

Mad_Gecko · 09-19-2003, 02:08 PM

Hmmm...

We do have the best post war run of wins going on now, so "us poms" aren't too displeased. However, we do know "soccer" and the team isn't performing very well. How often have I heard "teams that win when they aren't playing well are championship material."

Need some changes b4 we're able to win Champ's though.

Also nice to see Crouch going to the first division where he belongs

.

Most. Boring. Game. Ever. 21/09/03 Middlesborough v Everton... I'll be asleep after that.

almostaugust · 09-20-2003, 10:02 PM

Yeah, Go Arsenal for tonight! Wolves got cained again last night.

djflish · 09-21-2003, 11:42 AM

Did anybody see the United - Arsenal match?

It really kicked off in the last 20mins!
Vieira sent off and Van Nistelrooy missing a penalty in the 93 minute!!

I can't wait to hear what the managers say in the papers tomorrow!

almostaugust · 09-21-2003, 01:22 PM

Arsen has accused Ruud Van Nistleroy of being a cheat. Naturally Ferguson has stood up for his man, and aimed some shots of his own back at the Arsenal camp.
Damn, i cant wait for the highlights.

Spartak · 09-21-2003, 07:45 PM

Van Nistelrooy takes more dives than a WWII U-Boat.

As does the entire Man U squad.

I think this game proves once again that the FA wants more of the money that Man U is earning with its popularity overseas, and thus skewing the officiating in Man U's favour.

... what? You can't rule it out

almostaugust · 09-22-2003, 04:51 PM

Yeah, i just saw the highlights.
Youve gotta feel for Arsenal. They do get hammered by the refs. Van Nistleroy is very annoying. I thought it was heeps funny how everyone was celebrating in his face. As soon as Roy Keane stepped in though people started to back of. Nobody wants to die.

castex · 09-25-2003, 09:31 AM

You're right, Keane's a nasty piece of work. Writing in his autobiography that the career-ending tackle he performed on Haaland was entirely intentional is about as low as a footballer can go, in my opinion.
I see the same, almost rabid ferocity in his manager, all too clearly. Both seem just such nasty people, and they epitomise the rotten spirit shown by 'United' at their worst.
At their best, they're stunning. I love that devil may care, headlong flinging of bodies goalwards; the ball spraying left and right on the deck at a dizzying pace.

Newcastle used to do that, too. They...We will again soon. 5-0 against whomever it was last night is the beginning of the end of every pumped-up, playground prima-donna in the premiership, be they dressed in red, red and white, or blue.

Porkchop · 09-26-2003, 01:57 PM

Not tonight they didnt. Hard lines for them though they played well. 2 silly mistakes cost us the game really.

djflish · 09-29-2003, 11:40 AM

Newcastle always under-achieve at the beginning of the season, but have been up the top come the end of the season.
If they sorted out they're seasons starts they might actually be contenders

Yeah Newcastle have some gun players. When Solano is on his game he is awesome, and that Bellamy kid is also impressive.

jwoody · 09-30-2003, 07:34 AM

My insider at Newcastle has just given me some very interesting news.

I expect the shit to hit the fan some day soon. I mean, if you go back to hotel rooms with a bunch of footballers; what do you expect, a game of monopoly?

Mad_Gecko · 09-30-2003, 09:17 AM

jwoody

Yep, they be most likely candidates, they aren't likely to drive back up north after an evening kick off at Arsenal are they?

Wonder if Dirty Dyer was involved? It'll be enough to give Ol' Bobby a heart attack if it's true.

Although everyone was giving me grief cause Villa played Chelsea at the weekend and I got scared it might be them. However when they quoted "1 full international and many household names" I knew it wasn't Villa. We haven't got a regular international nor any household names.

Spartak · 09-30-2003, 05:41 PM

Dirty dirty Newcastle.

Should make some interesting reading in my Law lectures though, we already looked at Flitcroft this year, I expect this to be 300 times better.

jwoody · 10-01-2003, 12:35 AM

My mate works for a national red-top tabloid but they can't name names yet for obvious reasons.

Spartak · 10-01-2003, 03:03 AM

Not Cole!!

Dammit, stupid kid throwing his future away for some jailbait!

jwoody · 10-01-2003, 04:01 AM

Don't get too worked up just yet, Spartak they're only rumours at this stage. We'll probably read all about it on Sunday, the girl involved has already sold her story to The Sun.

Mad_Gecko · 10-01-2003, 05:48 AM

Although Bobby handing in his resignation is pretty circumstantial...even if it wasn't accepted.

I'll wait till the tabloids pull it apart, but for pure speculation NUFC has my vote.

siogo · 10-01-2003, 11:25 AM

Picked up a 'SUN' hack in my cab today, Yes its 'Toon' players

Fair enough, but if it was anyone half decent from Arsenal, I'd be pretty pissed off.

A pretty extreme lapse in judgement on the players' behalf if the allegations are true.

almostaugust · 10-01-2003, 09:51 PM

I havent nothing about this yet.... except from you guys of course.

stonecurran · 10-01-2003, 11:48 PM

im going and wil always go for aston villa. they have chad a crap couple of seasons but maybe this year with dennis o'lery as manager we can get into the top 6

almostaugust · 10-04-2003, 02:36 AM

Hey, whats happened with those dirty Newcastle boys???

Arc101 · 10-04-2003, 02:53 AM

Allegedly (does saying allegedly before passing on gossip stop you from getting sued ?) some Newcastle players, dyer, bellamy, bowyer, bernard, robert have been accused of rape.
Apparently the deed happened either Friday or Saturday night, and the girl reported it Saturday night. since then they've been taking swabs and checking cctv etc.

jwoody · 10-06-2003, 12:56 AM

This was doing the rounds at the match this Saturday.

To the tune of 'The Blaydon Races' -

Oh, me lads,
You should've seen them gannin'
Dyer and co'
Havin' a go,
All The Toon gang bangin'
All the lads and one lass there,
Her fanny must be achin'
We divvent need The Champions League,
We'd rather be out rapin'
