Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

That would definitely show something iffy was going on. They can't currently register them as Barca players because they obviously play for someone else. It's outside the transfer window anyway, which is the only time anyone can be registered, unless your a free agent and even then there's a time limit. There's no way, bar an appeal, they can register anyone. But it is Barca....

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

There were no rules on third party ownership then, the whole crux of the matter revolves around one paragraph in their contracts that was never invoked that stated they could be sold regardless of the clubs permission if a club bid over a certain amount, this amounted to third party influence in the contract. Which incidentally was brought in originally to stop clubs putting clauses in contracts like a player can't play against the selling club that season, not to stop some shyster business man making a few quid.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Giroud dropped and Fabianski keeps his place and to be honest rightly so. still though Arteta starts :sleep:

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I don't recall all the furore about the loan system last season when Lukaku played for little old West Brom. But now he's playing for a team challenging for a place in the top 4 it's gone haywire. You all seem to have missed the clause in Stephen (My gran has died, no not that one, the other one. Actually I lied to see my bird) Irelands permanent contract at Stoke "Aston Villa stipulated that they weren't going to allow the loan deal to be changed unless it was in the contract that Stephen couldn't play against them," Hughes said. http://www1.skysports.com/football/n...ys-mark-hughes Now that's clearly influencing another teams selection.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Stevenage are an absolute shambles. No desire, no fight. Manager a waste of space. Resigned to them playing League 2 football next season. If they survive now, I will support Tottenham next season and vote for Milliband and his bunch of losers.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

id take Pod off and throw Akpom on. his pace on that side will open it up.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

The longer this goes on the more chance there is of Wigan sneaking something.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

What happens if it is 0-0 at end of 90 minutes? Got Talent taping for a relative so assume that will be mucked around if they do extra time and penalties tonight?

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

dont worry it wont be level after 90.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Agree that longer game goes on better chance Wigan have of winning.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Diabolical defending from Wigan, am so cross that they let the lead go. Will not be a happy bunny now if Arsenal win. And thanks to the crap defending, TiVo will record 75 minutes of useless rubbish and I will have to record the repeat tomorrow for a relative.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

That's a bit harsh. Extra time and penalties might be entertaining....

Come on Wigan for the love of God. Had enough of this circus, should have finished them off when you had the chance. Why take the only threat off? Idiots. Hoping Wigan don't choke like England if it comes to a shootout.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Klopp maybe?.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

And why they scheduled the game for such a stupid time is beyond me. They could have played at lunch to avoid this situation.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Its on TV dear chap and they are Footballs masters.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

True. Shame Sagna was there to stop a cross, otherwise Wigan would have had an open goal thanks to Fabianski.

Wasn't good enough. I'm not that happy to be honest. It doesn't feel right but hey ho kick on!

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

This was by far the luckiest Arsenal team going, The team that deserved to win was Wigan, they played with fulfilment.

Arsenal were poor, and the strangest thing was, it went to penalties, thats why they won.

And yet an Arseanl player said that they were the best on the day - he was in cuckoo land. Wenger, he made poor decisions in my views.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Well Arthur Spurs have not exactly got anything to crow about have they?.

Oi Arthur, salute The Arsenal! :D

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

very big sour grapes there Arthur

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Like most neutrals I was in Wigan's corner but TBH although they did play with great spirit and made Arsenal look ordinary, they only had 9 attempts at goal, only 2 on target including a penalty. They never really looked like scoring from open play. On the balance of chances/goal attempts/possession Arsenal more than shaded it. A bit different from the last time they won an FA cup match on penalties.:p:;):)

Also don't see Nick Powell having a future at OT.:(

If Wigan can pick themselves up from this then I wouldn't want to be the Championship side that have to face them in the play offs.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

This is not sour grapes, Arsenal were poor, and yet the best side on the day were Wigan in my opion.

If Arsenal think they will win the cup on this display, they have another thing coming.

Good to see all Hillsborough tributes were observed :clap:

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

What happened at Wembley though? It was very awkward. There was a silence and then I heard a chant of 'Justice for the 96' off to my right and then there was some applause but I think the applause started to the left to drown out what they thought were hecklers disrupting the silence with malicious intent. So we had a scenario were half the stadium was clapping, half the stadium was silent, and some people were singing. :erm:

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

a few Everton fans spoiled it at SOL yesterday

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Personally l think when there is a sad event there should be a minutes silence and when we are celebrating the life of a player then there should be a minutes applause.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Why are they trying to do an Arsenal? I mean countering pace by trying to dictate, slow the game down?! FAIL. The only way to counter pace is to have pace yourself and that was proven as the half closed with Man City going close a couple of times. Pellegrini needs to change it. I wouldn't put Milner on as suggested by commentary lol City need at least one of Aguero, Negredo or Kolarov to come on.
