Hull City vs Newcastle United - March Sat 14 KO-15:00
The Prophet replied to Skirge's topic in Football
Would have had him in instead of Owen. -
Got on: Bolton Watford Southend Gillingham 22/1
-
I don't know like, he made some absolutely vital errors during the time Arsenal fell apart last season. Although he does seem to have improved this season.
-
I see Barcelona just got the five against Lyon, they're scary at times. Would be interesting if they got a Man United re-match. Best attack in Europe against the best defence.

The Second N-O Football Match - Red Team 1 - 2 Blue Team
The Prophet replied to Greg's topic in Football
OK, I think its safe for me to confirm. -
Can we really stop him if he does end up wanting to leave?

Let's define "footballing brain" (apologies to Nixon & HTT)
The Prophet replied to bulivye's topic in Football
Just though of a player with a footballing brain but who doesn't quite have the ability to match it: Cahill. -
Sheffield United to beat QPR Lincoln to beat Grimsby Bradford to beat Aldershot Morecambe to beat Dagenham 43/1

If we go....Those who will leave & what it may mean
The Prophet replied to Minhosa's topic in Football
It's unthinkable but I think our starting line up out of the current crop would look something like: -------------------------------Harper--------------------------------- R. Taylor--------S.Taylor---------------Kadar--------------Edgar --------------------------------Butt----------------------------------- -----------------Guthrie----------------------Lua Lua-------------- -------------------------------Barton--------------------------------- ----------Lovenkrands------------------Carroll---------------- -
Ferdinand is a very assured defender, who is also comfortable on the ball. However he is prone to the odd mistake but rarely gets punished due to the quality around him. For instance he sometimes gets carried away and takes the ball too far upfield, he gets caught but the quality of the remaining defenders and awareness of the midfield means there are men around to cover the gap. As Nixon pointed out above I'd choose both Vidic and Puyol in a side before Ferdinand.

Massively overrated but still very good.

Motson is a fucking tool. He's a one dimensional commentator who does nothing but churn out stat after stat. Add his irritating high pitched voice to the equation and you have a recipe for irritation.

Thought he got the tactics and game plan spot on today.

Why ? Because they're realistic ? Hope doesn't get points man. How many points have we thrown away in the last minute ? And we aren't scoring many. It all adds up to disaster. The disgusting messes being made at the likes of Blackburn and Bolton and the like will be hugely costly And if ever there was a modern version of "Lions led by Donkeys" its this lot Only it's DONKEYS led by Donkeys. I'd settle for staying up on goal difference. Just makes me chuckle how people pick this result of all results to start doom monging. Of course - it was this result that started anyone thinking about relegation. Check out the date this thread started by the way..... Obviously you weren't reading some of the reaction to tonights defeat. "We're going down" was banded about on more than a couple of occasions.

Think if we play like we did tonight against Arsenal we could well roll them over.
-
When is losing not a bad result??? We're a patched up team that usually bends over against Liverpool and Manchester United. Tonight the lads showed they are capable of staying up against the world champions. If we actually bothered to play like that every game we'd be comfortably sitting in mid-table. I know what you mean but its a fairly positive result.

I think it's more the combination of this (albeit somewhat inevitable result) with other results achieved by teams around us and the remaining fixtures...I think THAT's why people are doom monging/mongering so much more after tonight. Just said this in the other thread. Tonight the other results put a negative spin on what was, all in all a positive result. If we go down it will be because of games such as Stoke, Wigan and Blackburn not because of games against Manchester United. It's just funny people say thing like "Oh we're going down" after tonights result, strange.

Bad set of results today, they weren't always going to go our way though.

Some of the fucking idiots on here man.

People need to get a fucking grip some were predicting 7-0 for fucks sake. For twenty five minutes half an hour we caused all kinds of problems. All three goals came about because of individual errors not just the one, I'm not excusing them but it happens. There are so many positives to take out of this game, injuries and all, yet people take this match of all matches to start doom monging, fucking pathetic man.
