Guest sicko2ndbest Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Is it me or does the headline completely contradict the article? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/8462239/Joey-Barton-blows-his-big-chance-after-blowing-his-own-trumpet-as-Newcastle-United-frustrate-Manchester-United.html?

Pilko Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Captain's performance. Also managed to absolutely troll Rooney about three times, which is the cherry on the cake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the 'missed chance' I think just refers to actual finishing, but is cleverly (shitely) written to attract clickers. Online advertising has a lot to answer for.

Wont be reading this shite. If it had of read Championship contenders choke the fuck up, I might have. As it happens they are seeking airtime off the back of Joey, who did well.

wormy Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Annoyed he's given the ball in direct free kicks. But other than that, fantastic delivery all night. Had Best been on the pitch, Ameobi been in better form, or, God forbid, we hadn't sold Carroll, could've snatched a win. All ifs and buts though. Great tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vinkent Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Complete contrast to his performance as captain at Villa. Was proper chuffed last night. Made me laugh how Rooney was mouthing off like a Class A clown and yet the journo yob brigade never labelled him. Spot on performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 That article appears to have been written by atleast 3 seperate people who had no contact with each other (or seemingly the outside world), and then the subsiquent products were just mashed together in word.

Or more likey its because we havent got anyone to get on the end of them. How many goals did we score in the first half of the season from carroll headers from FKs or Nolan tap ins?

ponsaelius Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 That's direct and indirect set-pieces, I'm sick of just expecting them (particularly direct) to come to fuck all. Dzsudzsák would be perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
