Aren't the Tampa Bay Rowdies more local for you atm? ;)
And I sympathise - as a West Ham supporter I'm used to having the mickey taken!

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Probably, but punky gets confused as they keep handling the ball :D

The hammers have to be badly run, with the amount of talent that goes through that club............. nice to see them back in the top flight though :tu:

I am. We lose every week.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

And you'll never win anything with Arsenal either, judging on this season's performances.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

224 mins is only just over 2 games, anyway. Not that much- I suspect it sounds more than it is.

I can take a joke, but there's a difference between being funny, and being nasty for nastiness' sake

You will find that he said it not only to point out that Man U didn't score today, but to make a jibe about the fact we didn't score in the cup final last season either. Despite the fact that we dominated the game, and his team won on penalties, hence the Paul Scholes comment.

not very impressed with the United performance.. considering alot of them kids should have been playing for their places in the team and wanting to show Fergie just how good they are they couldn't deliver.. man for man they were still a better side but didn't look like it for much of the match.. apart from Bardsley and Pique the team didn't look great.. still not sure why everyone raves about Richardson

And let's not forget that Burton imported half the sand from entire Gobi desert to make the pitch vaguely playable. That affected a LOT of the ball passing, although I agree that a lot of the players should stick to the B team.

Stuff Man U - Villa actually won in the 3rd round of the Cup! For the first time in 5 years, we've actually got to the fourth round! This now means that we'll get to the final (where we'll lose, but what the hell!).

:disturbd:

Oh I am so tempted to strike at the punmeister, wound indeed, Nugget's ID revealed at last, he is Jonathon Woss. :D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Dammit - you got in before I managed to edit it :D

EDIT: Actually, thinking on, watching Villa play in the FA Cup over the last 5 years has felt like being stabbed in the eyes, so maybe wound was right ;)

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I told you - we'll get to the final, where we'll be roundly thrashed (probably by Torquay :D )
