  1. You seriously think that? The fact that Man United/Chelsea/Arsenal dominate the league doesn't stop me watching other football. I do think it's fair to say the public are probably very near to the limit of what they're prepared to pay on a monthly basis for the coverage. Especially as it's easier and easier to get it via 'other' means. I don't think that's down to the monopoly though, more down to the stupid prices and free coverage on the net.

  3. That's probably the worst idea I've read about how to change football. I assume from your name that you're American? Clubs in this country should be enhancing their academies, not getting rid of them.
  4. I expect we'll finish 9th - 11th. I think we should be aiming for top 7 though.
  5. Sorry, 8. I'll find the quote from Mort regarding talking to Owen in summer in a bit.
  6. You've clearly never watched either Jimmy Bullard or league football. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Not saying we should get in but we can do alot worse than him, at least his set pieces beats the first man Oh course we could do a lot worse than him. We could do a lot worse than Andy Reid too, but should we sign him? We need players to improve the team, not give us half a dozen squad players.

  8. Women have their own trophies otherwise they have no chance of winning. You might claim "if they're good enough, why not?", well it's because they're not good enough. There isn't a woman on this planet in the history of Wimbledon who could have won the mens title. Same goes with football. Men and women aren't equal, no matter how many people claim they are.
  9. Keegan asked Ashley 6 weeks ago to sort Owen's contract out. They haven't approached him yet and will be doing it once the season is over. By all accounts Owen wants to sign.
  10. Our shape was OK until Smith came on but most of our players were guilty of giving the ball away far too easily and it's something we've done all season. Geremi, Butt and Barton are probably the main ones for that but most were guilty today, even Baye who is normally OK. I think Chelsea bullied us today and we couldn't cope. I know it doesn't really matter, but you do it every time you mention him. It's BEYE, not Baye.
  11. He'd have about 5 if you take away all the deflections and the ones that go in off his arse and balls (Ronaldo that is). Oh God, here we go. Exactly the same line used against Lampard. Seems if people don't like a player, it's impossible for him to score "good" goals.
  12. They've had 7 manager in the last year. Hardly his fault.
  13. Look HTT, we clearly know better than you. Do you want advice on anything else whilst we're here? Aye, how would I go about telling someone they are a cunt, without getting myself banned? Do it on Toontastic. It's HTT though, so we'd probably ban him. Yeah, fair point.
  14. I'm not convinced they're gonna go through with this. Wasn't it just an option?

  16. You fancy Liverpool's keeper?
  17. There are only 3 decent footballing teams in the Championship this season, and Stoke aren't one of them. No idea how they managed to get promotion.
  18. Stoke fans invade the pitch. Fucking idiots. Small time club.
  19. 5th is still yours to lose, though. If only we hadn't turned in our worst performance of the season yesterday Yep. Have to fancy us to get at least a point at home to a Newcastle side with nothing to play for waiting to go on their summer holidays. Could work the other way. You lot get nervous, we have nothing to lose. I fancy us beating you tbh.
  20. So probably bollocks. Keegan does want Riise though. No idea if the deal has been done.
  21. The criticism was right though in his last 2 seasons, he was a shadow of his former self. There is no room for sentiment. Bollocks. Even the last two seasons he was doing more than anyone in an underperforming team. Are you saying he wasn't a shadow of his former self? He was nowhere like the Shearer of old, but he was still our best striker. Said more about our transfer dealings though.
  22. 4th Spurs 5th Villa 6th Liverpool 7th Everton 8th Blackburn 9th Newcastle 10th Man City 11th Portsmouth
  23. Indeed, Kevin Doyle has had an even tougher last week or so. Really? Wasn't even that close to his cousin was he?
