1518: Steed Malbranque's shot is parried by Pompey keeper David James and Kevin-Prince Boateng taps in - but the Spurs midfielder is offside and it stays goalless at Fratton Park.

Mental.

Schoolboy.

Schoolboy.

I'm glad someones confident we can beat Chelsea away.

No. Cheers.

Are you able to order games? I'm not subscribed to Setanta but I'd like to watch the Fulham game.

Or if Jenas hadn't missed an open goal at Boro about two minutes before they equalised. Or if the officials had been halfway competent and seen that equaliser was scored with a hand. Or if Shay hadn't made a totally uncharacteristic error to let Norwich back into the game at SJP. Or if we'd put away one of the shedful of chances we had against Spurs. That's without mentioning the Dyer shit. We had an incredible amount of bad luck in those four games, which was what made it even more sickening when the fat mong started mashing the panic button. I don't think we can say those games were the reason he got the sack, if we'd have won those games it would have just been delaying the inevitable, the team we had that season would have come 5th at highest and we all know what Shepherd thought of that position the previous season. At that stage after a succession of successful years i think the board began to take our success for granted and didn't actually respect what Robson had actually done, if you're going to sack someone with the caliber of Bobby then you need a damn well good replacement if you're going to continue never mind progress on to the next level, we didn't do that, we got someone in who wasn't capable of repeating or even coming close to half the job the legend had done just years before. Much better

Which bit don't you understand? The wrong thread bit. Shit It fucked up so i copied and pasted it

Yes.

I saw it on Skysports news He had a sign behind the guy speaking, he told him to "carry on" but whoever was taking the briefing said he wouldn't continue with him stood behind so he left

Think we might sneak this one.

He got sacked because of his own success, he raised the expectations to title challengers and the excellent job he did ironically cost him in the end.

So it could be better rather than worse for them not much has actually changed as egg head only had 5% and the fella buying them was the vast majority share holder already I always assumed Magnusson was just the front man who gave the consortium some level of legitimacy...cos this Gudmundsson, while rich, is a convicted criminal? Whatever happened to that fit and proper persons stuff. I don't think you're in a position to criticize the legitimacy of an owner Nope, not really. However I am in a position to criticize the disproportianate media representation of Shinawatra compared to other shady characters like Gudmundsson and Gaydamak. What have they been found guilty of?

Surely not?

2-0 Arsenal, Bendtner, brilliant Arsenal move.

Sickening news.

Bored?

It's possible but a team with more quality will take them to pieces, whether it's the next round or the round after that
