Football 2013-2014

I think they have an awful record on merseyside, quite a strange one.

Although most of that time was when they were cashless.

[ThomThomDrum]

City will win this weekend and do so convincingly I reckon. Yaya, Aguero & Silva are all back fit aren't they? Evertons head wont be in it after fucking up last week and Arsenal taking advantage on Monday.

I hope they dont, but irrespective of their recent record on Mersyside I see them bossing Everton this weekend

Interesting quote from Hazard after the game last night to French TV

Could be lost in translation but the "not made to play football" is an odd statement, when counter attacking football is a legitimate tactic. I wonder if he feels his skills are not best suited to such a team/set-up/footballing philosophy?

It's for the best Terry doesn't go to the world, imagine the tears between him and Stevie G?

Waterlogged pitches everywhere.

[mrtourette]

Don't worry he'll be there in his full kit, waiting to photobomb any celerations.

[ThomThomDrum]

So who do people reckon will win the CL final?

I personally think its going to Madrid.

Say it will be some party that night in Madrid!

Especially considering it was recently voted 2nd best party city in the world behind Bangkok and just ahead of Vegas

Just had a cheeky £10 single on each of these.

Jon Flanagan @ 3/1 to make WC Squad

John Stones @ 10/1 to make WC Squad.

Found out today, that West Ham now email supports ahead of a game with Spurs if they are attending to warn them off being racist

I get what they are trying to do, but will it really deter anyone whose that way inclined?

Tryin to maintain the winning run was LFC's downfall. It's a coulda/woulda/shoulda but you get my point.

I think that's a bit unfair, unless you know that Rodgers had told them to go all out for the win?

I thought Liverpool were quite measured in many ways, and not as full-on attack as they could have been - how they were in the 2nd half, for instance.

That slip was unfortunate, because after that Liverpool did have to go for it. If there hadn't have been that slip then who knows how it would have finished?

(I'm not trying to suggest that Liverpool would have defo won, before anyone thinks that's what i'm meaning).

Been happening for a while.

What I found amusing was it stemmed from complaint about WHU fans making gassing noises. When in fact the noises being made were sssh noises (WHL was silent bar the away end due to the scoreline). For a change the away fans were innocent (unless piss taking is banned too).

I guess it serves us collectively right - as we have sung some abhorrent songs there over the years on the same subject matter.

Pep guardiola to united? Can just see fellaini, cleverly and young playing tiki taka football.

I'm not convinced city will beat everton today. While many have talked about Liverpool blowing the title, I don't think we should forget that city should have won the last 3 titles fairly comfortably with their squad the last 3 season, yet so far have only scraped 1 on goal difference. For all their talent they regularly drop points when they shouldn't.

and Everton don't have Barry today, of course.

I want Everton to win, but I can't see it happening.

Well, the Championship was fun.

Absolute scenes to end what was a fun Notts Forest/Brighton game. Would have loved to have seen the reaction to the Birmingham equalizer as well.

[Gucci Piggy]

Well that was shite. Sent down by a "contentious penalty" and a last minute Birmingham equaliser. Suppose it makes up for our final day last year. Although a league with Donny, Sheff Utd, Barnsley, Rotherham, Scunny and Chesterfield will be nice.

Spurs defeat means we're definitely in the Europa league, so I can now tolerate a defeat to Man City if it helps them win the title.
