UK football, season 2008/09, forecasts

Mighty Wigan humbled you southerners, heh :stuck_out_tongue:

Southerners?

Don’t make me come over there matey

Didn’t you get barred from there last time you did that? :slight_smile:

Where? Up north? :wink:

What are you waffling on about?

I’m already in’t norf

I thought you lived in Cheshire? Anyway, south of Wigan = south, as far as I’m concerned :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyway, predictions for relegations? I reckon Tottenham will pull it round eventually, and avoid relegation. Newcastle—who wants to buy them? Their fans are nutters and expect way too much. I reckon they’re going to be playing Championship football next season. Bolton are looking shaky, unfortunately, as are Stoke.

I do indeed live in Cheshire, very posh here, we even spell shit with a C;)

Relegation?

Hmmm, bit early to say really but I have to confess it’s looking a bit shaky for the spuds and the barcodes and it’s none to good for Stoke or Bolton

On a personal note the team I’d like to see dumped out of the prem is Fulham.

I dunno what it is but that lot really do not belong in the top flight and if you’ve ever been to Craven Cottage you’ll never go again…the place is the absolute pits believe me.

Hull have far exceeded expectations, they were hot faves to go straight back down, now look, they beat the mighty Arse

…and there you go. We’re brilliant again.

4-0 Porto (and should have been 8).

Guess I better go down Laddys and back Sunderland to beat us on Saturday.

Its the ciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiircle of liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife… and it rules us allllllllllllllllllll…

All the eloquent talk about “beautiful football” aside, I don’t think I could ever support a team with “ARSE” in their name. And to compound it all by choosing a manager called…ARSEne, is completely unforgivable.

I know the feeling. Last Saturday we lost 4-0 and we were certs for relegation, the supporters (at least a good portion of them) knew beforehand the team the manager picked wasn’t going to win.

Why the manager doesn’t just listen to the supporters who know ten times as much as he does about football and give himself a nice easy life with virtually automatic promotion, I don’t know.

Why have a manager at all, just get the fans to let the club know the team for the next game, sorted.

The trouble is though the manager accidentally picked a team that won last night. Is he just lucky or what?

Hello it’s our resident southern Manure fan putting in an appearance.

If i remember, the standard reply to this (particularly when its asked by Spurs or Man Utd fans) is:

“We may have arse in the team name, but at least our squad isn’t full of c*nts.”

You sure you’ve got the right quote there, given that I’m the North London living Gooner?

Pretty certain Ebsfleet are trying that at the moment. Can’t quite see it working out somehow.

Well, that would work if you didn’t have Toure, Eboue, Gallas, Lehmann - to name but a few. And in the past Ljungberg, Viera, Parlour, Winterburn…

To which the savvy Man U fan will reply, "Yes, but all an arse is good for is churning out shit; a cunt has at least one good use. "( Two, if you count giving birth.). :stuck_out_tongue:

My apologies for confusing you with one of the red shite

Why apologise? It’s only a different kind of red shite!

Not to my way of thinking old chap.

There’s only one real load of red shite, that motley crew from mould trafford.

If the world had piles that’s were they’d be

Having disposed of the mighty Omonia Nicosia, Manchester City fans eagerly await the pairings for the group KO stages of the UEFA Cup which is to drawn around midday on Tuesday October 7th.

My breath is bated;)

Oldham’s first league defeat of the season - not the end of the world, but a poor result after a good start.

Take that Leeds! Hah!

That felt good…

I left work early to avoid the post game traffic. Not that I got much done anyway…
