  1. Heraidarsson is so bad he should be playing in League One nevermind the Championship Baffles me how he's been a regular in the Prem for so long
  2. No one would ever pay £7m for a player of Steve Sidwell's capabilities.
  3. Emre will be off, and with 3 quality wingers (Milner, Duff, N'Zogbia) it seems a shame to waste them In away games he'd probably play the two wingers and only one striker. I wouldn't be so sure about Emre leaving. Allardyce loves making something out of players who have struggled for form or been in controversy
  4. I think Allardyce would have your team looking something like this: ---------------------Given---------------------- New RB---Taylor-----Ben Haim---New LB ---------------Random African DM------------ ------------Parker-------------Emre------------ Owen--------------Viduka------------Martins
  5. Can't see Kendall getting the Celtic job tbh
  6. Moyes is a far better manager than Strachan who is already starting to f*** up at Celtic. They will be 2nd next year without a doubt. You're not particularly happy with Moyes though, are you? I don't like his style of play (although it's changed for the better since he was heavily criticised after the Spurs home game) You can't argue with his results though. Three top 7 finishes in 5 years without spending much compared to years of struggling at the bottom before he arrived. Strachan couldn't have done that job and is now making a mess of the huge advantage Celtic had over Rangers. Just because Strachan gives a funny interview people think he must be a good manager. Wrong.

  8. My head says Derby but I've got a funny feeling Southampton will come up
  9. :lol: £50k a week?! That's just ridiculous
  10. Think I have to disagree. From what I have seen of him he looks like a more effective version of Parker. We are far from being good enough for Sidwell not to be a good option on a free! He's not as good as Parker imo. Decent player but nothing more than that. Worth signing on a free but if I was paying money it would be £2m maximum for Sidwell.

    Setanta Sports

    That bollocks EU competition ruling really screwed over the average man. The fans are massively out of pocket just so two big companies are rich instead of one. Brilliant.
  12. Just got home, I'm smashed We're all going on a european tour, a european tour fuck off Harry Redknapp

    Players in public

    Victor Anichebe outside HMV
  14. Not necessarily. In some countries it is illegal to advertise for alcohol at sporting events (I think France is one) so there have been ocassions where a new sponsor is made specifically for an away game there or no sponsor at all. I'd bet my left bollock that they are fakes. I know the rules on alcohol, they have been in place for many years and either clubs have plain shirts or some marketing gimmick such as LFC having "Probably..." in place of the sponsor. Furthermore, you can only be sponsored by one organisation. If they use two different brand names on home and away kits then that is allowed but Carslberg have nothing to do with Liverpool 08. So as I said, it's fake.

  16. Blatantly fake. You can see clearly where it's been photoshopped and I'm sure Carlsberg would have something to say about effectively paying to NOT have their logo in the big Champions League games.
  17. The weekend papers said he was coming to Everton We're moving into a brand new training complex/academy in the summer which is supposed to be one of the largest and best equipped in Europe. Could be a big draw for signing kids like that. As for Leeds- Ken Bates is shrewd. He'll buy the club back for next to nothing having shed the high earners and debt and they'll be ok.
  18. I remember the Mail said a Russian billionaire was going to buy Everton about two years ago. I'm still waiting.
  19. I doubt it. Adidas have just signed up Derby County.

    Michael Carrick

    I've said since the summer that it's obvious Ferguson wants to have a poor mans Gattusso and Pirlo with Hargreaves and Carrick in his team. It won't be as good as they are for Milan but still pretty class all the same. I still don't think Carrick is performing as well as he did for Spurs btw. He had more responsibility there whereas Scholes is the main man at Utd
  21. Obviously Liverpool for me. The most arrogant as well as having the most cringeworthy banners, songs etc
  22. 94-5 and then again 99-2000, but they weren't rooted in any historical thing, though. Ellis probably got a job lot from Diadora going cheap. We had a repulsive green and black striped away shirt in the mid 90s, too. Apparently our new away shirt is a replica of the 1982 EC final shirt, which will make up for the current badge disappointment. I remember that one, Muller for the sponsor
  23. I remember Villa brought back a stripey kit for a season or two in the 90's. When you played in the FA Cup final maybe? Was it 98?

    Darren Bent

    I think Bent is better than Martins anyway but if you could also make a profit on the deal then I'd snap Valencia's hand off for the £15m and get Bent for £10m. That's £5m right there for a decent defender.
  25. How has it gone down? That zebra stripey dealie on the side looks minging IMO. City's kit not out for a while. All I know is, Le Coq. Everyone is complaining about having Umbro. And I agree really, they're shit. Even Derby bloody County have got Adidas now. Though I think next seasons kit is an improvement on the current one, at least the neck is symmetrical and I like the slight bit of yellow trim. The zebra stripe things are rubbish but they're on nearly all the new Umbro kits.
