Weekend Games

[luce]

I don't think there is one so i think it is time to have one. Who do you have and what does it mean to you.

Manchester United Vs Chelsea

Obviously a massive game would be nice to win but a draw would suite but I think there is a few more twists in this season with Arsenal pretty much out with injury problems really stopping them from challenging imo.

[Adamm]

Plymouth at home.

Win or forget the playoffs. Not that I would be bothered if we didn't make the playoffs, I'm happy just staying in the league.

[Cheryl]

got League leaders Newcastle - win or be relegated today :D

[iAdam]

Against bristol city, please please win forest.

[JackBuddy]

Sunderland away, going to be very tough.

No King, Woodgate, Corluka, Dawson, Palacios, Jenas, Lennon and Harry doesn't want to risk Defoe.

[Smits]

We got city at home, not confident at all, but nothing less than a win is acceptable.

[StefanWolves]

arsenal... well erm yea :)

3-0 arsenal

United 1 - 2 Chelsea

[Smits]

Yeah i'm backing chelsea, they havnt got much to play for apart from this now so they really should be all out. Plus with rooney out (i think) united will be lacking som fire power.

[StefanWolves]

they have nothing to play for?? they have probably the best chance of the top 3 of winning the title??

[Tash.]

Liverpool have Birmingham away on Sunday.. hmm I don't know, I really don't. Hopefully Torres will blow them away, can never really tell. Depends which team shows up. I'm betting on a 3-1 Chelsea win though, even without Drogba playing from the beginning. Off to watch it now :)

[CHA!NGANG]

they have nothing to play for?? they have probably the best chance of the top 3 of winning the title??

He means that they have no CL so they can focus on winning the league. But they do have the FA Cup which I think he forgot about.

Oh and Jack I see your injuries and raise you:

Djourou, Gibbs, Ramsey, Gallas, Arshavin, RVP, Fabregas.

[StefanWolves]

hahahah and because of your injuries i think we have a 1 in 10 chance of winning.

[Jack.Lfc]

Oh and Jack I see your injuries and raise you:

Djourou, Gibbs, Ramsey, Gallas, Arshavin, RVP, Fabregas.

[Jibbish]

what a goal from young

[JackBuddy]

Lost all respect for Darren Bent. He ran to celebrate infront of the Spurs fans. Like Adebayor. Seems to think he's proved a point by getting a tap in against our 4th choice defence.

[Jibbish]

i can fart louder than the rebook.
not looking to good for spurs

[Adamm]

Different circumstances.

Adebayor wanted to go.
Bent was forced out.

[Jibbish]

villa are playing like barcelona tbh.

Glad you sold Darren Bent Harry?

http://oraclespeak.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/harry-redknapp.jpg

lucky lucky spurs, harrys missues would of scored that pen

[JackBuddy]

Different circumstances.

Adebayor wanted to go.
Bent was forced out.

The fans had never done anything to him though. You know what happens when you celebrate infront of opposition fans can do (WHam v Millwall, City v Arsenal).

In all honesty I am glad we sold Bent. He scores goals, but the team has to revolve around him making it very one-dimensional and there isn't much to his game apart from running onto passes and shooting.

[Jibbish]

darren bent what a ****

[JackBuddy]

Shocking Spurs performance, injuries catching up with us and just generally a **** game lol

[Jibbish]

april is a tough month for spurs

[CHA!NGANG]

Fewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Can't leave it any later. And wow 4 on 1 for us in the last few seconds and we bloody missed, so casual we should have smashed it.

[Adamm]

Sake .

[Inscribe]

we had swindon lost 3-0, leeds chances of automatic promotion is looking unlikely.

[luce]

torres doesn't give a **** anymore you could tell by the way he was playing in Europe this week. he will be gone this summer.


Also what a shocker united have no desire imo i don't know if we will win it now but i still think we could pull it off if Fergie doesn't bottle it :)!

[AlexOC]

City 3 - 0 Burnley. 6 Minutes in. Burnley fans leaving already.

Easy.

[CHA!NGANG]

From the last few games, Torres seems to be one of the only players that does actually care. He chases the ball a hell of a lot but you can tell he isn't match fit just yet.

[AlexOC]

4 - 0

20 minutes.

More burnley fans leaving. Mercy rule?

[AlexOC]

5 - 0

Suck on that. We're going fourth, we're going fourth, oh city, we are going fourth!

[AlexOC]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_records_in_England#Scorelines_2

Somebodies already updated the record books :rolleyes:

[StefanWolves]

oh dear burnley

6-0 after an hour

can they beat man uniteds 9-0 record? doubtful now but i hope they do

[Jack.Lfc]

cool pic bro

That fat manager of Burnleys is tryna get the match called off.

[Jack.Lfc]

Thanks doll.

7-6 there gunna win 7 6

[AlexOC]

6 - 1

burnley fans seem to think theyve snatched it.

[iAdam]

A point, we'll take it, ends the away dry spell.

[Smits]

Lmaoo the game was funny. Terrible performance apart from like 15 minutes in the second half. Laws, laughable. All the burnley fans who did stay though, fair play to you because together we managed to show our support and shut the city fans up a lot of the second half.

City have decent support though and like their songs.

[-Heart]

Absolutely gutted about Arsenal's late winner, but we can be proud of ourselves today. 10-men and we stuck in there. Never a red card either.

[CHA!NGANG]

Your defending was good. Although at the end, 4 on 1 and we bloody literally tried to pass it in, what a waste. If we loose the title by 1 goal on GD, I know where where we lost it. I had a feeling we'd score really late actually but I thought Nasri but was a good header.

[Jack.Lfc]

Reminds me of us last year, and we all know how that ended.

[Geraint]

never beat the jacks, never beat the jacks, never beat the, never beat the, never beat the jacks :D

[Jack.Lfc]

Nice effort from eduardo

[TickTockTickTock]

pmsl at Burnley and the fans, jokers.

[JackBuddy]

Jesus christ, anyone see that huge man with the Wolves coaching staff?

Edit: I love how much coverage Arsenal's injuries get compared to Spurs and Pompey.

Do you mean with refs or just in general?

[StefanWolves]

is he black?

[JackBuddy]

Eh??

is he black?
Nah. White, bald and REALLY fat lol.

[Jack.Lfc]

Put motd on

[Adamm]

Nah. White, bald and REALLY fat lol.
That's just Hahneman.

[JackBuddy]

******* Bent. Fans never did anything to him.

[CHA!NGANG]

With the injuries, do you mean coverage in general or do you mean that refs are over-concerned with Arsenal players being injured e/g the red card today?

[JackBuddy]

Coverage in general.

[Jack.Lfc]

PMSL SEE FERDINAND DANCING HAHAHAHHA

[JackBuddy]

Urgh, worst performance of the season. Injuries catching up with us and generally a **** performance.

[CHA!NGANG]

Ahright well to be fair, ours have been season long and serious injuries (Djourou, Gibbs, Ramsey, RVP) and injuries to our best two players, our captain and vice-captain and we've have more players injured than Spurs. And they haven't even got that much coverage to be fair.

If Spurs want to be a CL side they need to cope with these injuries and you can't keep blaming them for loosing although I suppose your whole defence is out. United have had 17 players out for a month or more this season according to MOTD but they can still cope.

Oh and wow Sunderland missed soo many chances.

[Adamm]

Zenden.

Marry me.

[TickTockTickTock]

We can cope but not when they're all out at the same time.
Woodgate has played 3 games all season, King about 15. They are our first choice defensive partnership. Today, Dawson was also injured and so was Huddlestone and Corluka who would be the make-shift central defenders which lead to us playing a championship right back in Walker. Palacios isn't match fit and neither was Defoe. Aaron Lennon has been out since mid-december and won't be back for another few weeks. I reckon Woodgate/King/Lennon's long-term injuries + Huddlestone, Jenas, Corluka, Palacios, Defoe and Dawson ones we have at the moment are just as bad if not worse than Arsenal's. Gallas and Fabregas are only going to miss 6 more games.

RVP is the only player on that long-term injury list who would walk into your first team.

Not making excuses but I don't think that Spurs get enough credit when you consider how the team has managed without key players.

[Geraint]

******* hell, look at burnleys pitch.

[JackBuddy]

******* hell, look at burnleys pitch.

Ball is moving so slowly in the centre circle area.

There are only 6 more games left in the season though. And I'm not saying Spurs have done crap because they haven't. And yeah but how many of your players that have been out for a long time would walk into your first team? At the moment, Arshavin, Gallas, Fabregas and RVP would make our first team so we have 4/11 players out at the moment of our first team.

[Arron]

People are saying the title is over. not just yet it isnt.

Woodgate, King, Lennon, Huddlestone (had been out for a month and suffered the same injury again) and Modric if you include his 3 month lay-off at the start of the season.

http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php

[Arron]

i thought teams were allowed 5 substitutions not 3? :/

[CHA!NGANG]

King is a walking injury anyway. Woodgate, Lennon and Huddlestone yeah but how long as Huddlestone been out for out of intrest? Woodgate has had injury problems for a while too as well I think. The only surprise loss this season for you was Lennon who was really badly missed. We've had players injured that normally never get injured for long periods. I'll give you the CB position which is a big loss for you and is a big loss to so fair enough but I just looked at your outfield squad and you have around 19 players that could do ok in your first team and we have 24 and the top 3 all have around the 25 mark. If you do make the CL spot then you'll need to buy at least 5/6 good players in to stay there.

EDIT: No it's always been 3 unless it's a friendly I think.

[JackBuddy]

It's not that our squad isn't big enough, granted areas could be improved. The reason things are so bad is because our back-ups are becoming injured. Woodgate's current injury is different to the one he has previously suffered throughout his career so was un-forseeable. Huddlestone had previously been out for 4-5 weeks and in training he injured it again and isn't expected back anytime soon (according to another forum). We played **** today, but a massive reason behind it was because we had to resort to playing Modric in the middle, who was like a Jew in Nazi Germany up against Cattermole and Cana.

God knows what will happen if Gomes gets injured, as Cudicini has been out 3/4 of the season.

Hmm. Whenever I hear Harry Redknapp he always says: 'We weren't expected to get forth place along with Villa so if we don't get it then it won't be a surprise to anyone', and he's basically just covering himself in case Spurs mess up. I don't even think he thinks they will get it. I recon it has to be City or Liverpool. Liverpool will have to win every game left though including Chelsea which will be very hard but it can be done by them especially with Torres and Gerrard getting on form. I can see Spurs messing up again. Villa are out I think. City have to be favourites but they will probably mess up a couple of times too so who knows.

I hope that Liverpool beat Chelsea and we beat City which will mean Liverpool get closer to 4th and we get closer to the top.

He's saying that to relieve pressure on the players. Let's face it, at the start of the season nobody thought Villa/Spurs would be chasing it till the end. City and Liverpool were clear favourites (they still are, but not so much now). He'd rather go about business quietly, which I'd prefer.

[Jibbish]

How are Villa out of it, if Liverpool are considered one to still be in it?
We're on the same points, and after tomorrow they will have played a game more, so how does that exactly mean Villa are out of the race? :S
We by far have the easiest run of games, out of the contenders, Villa v Everton & Villa v Man City will be crucial

[CHA!NGANG]

In my opinion* :)

[Jibbish]

In my opinion* :)
I know, just saying :')

[CHA!NGANG]

I think that Villa will run out of steam, whilst I think Liverpool will pick up form and finish well. I could be wrong and Villa could still get it but that's what I recon will happen.

[Jibbish]

We wont get 4th spot, but we will finnish above spurs

[StefanWolves]

i really hope city finish 4th, the premier league needs them to, the league is going through a rut at the moment and the spanish & german league (in terms of ££) are catching up, if city get into the CL they will spend heavily, and bring lots of stars to the country. it would benefit the league as a whole imo

[CHA!NGANG]

Maybe. If Liverpool don't get it, Gerrard and Torres could go abroad and Masc and Reina could go with them (not saying they will all go but you never know) which means the PL will loose four of its biggest stars. Two ways to look at it.

[Andys]

Lost all respect for Darren Bent. He ran to celebrate infront of the Spurs fans. Like Adebayor. Seems to think he's proved a point by getting a tap in against our 4th choice defence.

No he never, he ran past your fans and into the south west corner.
Also, it meant alot to him.

Also, your defence was absolutely dire :L
You got absolutely battered.

[Mexel]

Fat Spanish waiter fails to beat us for the 8th time.

Good game, cracking atmosphere. Few things kicked off at away gates at end of game, have not seen that for ages.

[Jack.Lfc]

Few things kicked off at away gates at end of game, have not seen that for ages.
I didnt see that, i thought the away section was barrierd off from home, like where coaches go in there is all fencing around it

[Mexel]

Yeah it is, but the gates get opened 15 mins after final whistle went off at the cross roads outside the gates and in New Street train station. Most was agressive banter. Did you go? If so did you here the extra long and extended version of 'Hey Scouser'? Only a few people caught onto it but it sounded quite loud lol.

[Jack.Lfc]

yeh i went. Couldnt understand what ya's where saying lol

[Mexel]

Cant remember the Hey Scouser one but we started a 'R u gna bang doe' and 'Chitty Chitty bang bang' all in one song.

Oi you are you gonna bang doe are you gonna bang doe we hate you
Oi you are you gonna bang doe are you gonna bang doe what you'll do
here far in your stolen car probably a mercadies benz
Your all dirty scouse *******s you'd mug your own best friendss

Sung that at Anfield too. Can never understand how it ends though.

[Jack.Lfc]

Haha.
Nice avatar

[Jack.Lfc]

Oooh yeh there was trouble after it in the side street.

[Geraint]

why do the gates get opened 15 mins after the game? if i'd come on the train or by car, i'd want to get out not be kept it. i can hardly see the mancs or west ham being happy about this. surprised it hasn't kicked off with a few outside there. i know when swansea went last season there was some trouble as there would be if we weren't bussed in.

[Jack.Lfc]

I thought the police where letting people walk out, but the coaches where being kept for escort.

[Geraint]

that's what I would have thought. did they do what they did to us last year and when you're walking up you have like 10 year olds jumping up and looking over the fence. :L :L

[Jack.Lfc]

I was on coach, didnt see no one looking over :)

[Geraint]

when you're coming out there's like a metal fence which is small and last year it was dark and all you could see was 10 year olds popping their heads up and down.

[Shockwave.2CC]

This mite be for last weeks games but im doing this weeks

We've got Peterbrough United away

Should win this easily

[leah]

beat southend 2-0 LOL ... 2 wins in a row, hopefully we're getting out of this ABSOLUTELY CRAP spell ;l

[StefanWolves]

nuthing less than a win will do tomorrow........
