As much of it is ManUre flying high (for once) with 54 from 22, though. (2.54 per game = 93 points for a season)

Why couldn't Newcastle just go along with 'the plan'? :confused:

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

United were below par today, draw was a fair result, to be honest I wouldn't want Park in Rochdale's first team.:(

I thought you reversed the 3-0 defeat at the City ground at Boundary Park last season.:confused:

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Yep, he was poor today, and I was surprised when Fergie took Fletcher off and not Park :confused:

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

3-0 at ours wasn't it? Only going by what Colin Fray said on Radio Nottm.

I should have known that without looking it up... I was there.

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

i have no idea what on earth Park brings to the team.. he doesn't even put in any effort.. at least Fletcher and O-Shea try and do something even though they aren't good enough.. Park just runs about looking lost and isn't good enough at this level.. we have very little depth in the squad and need a new striker in Jan, although we have Rossi back.. with Saha out we only have Rooney and Larsson so if one of them gets injured we are in the same boat again

VDS isn't good enough in goal either.. he should have tipped round at least one of them goals yesterday and cost us a goal with Reading too

so far the only thing West Ham have done is beat us then been poor the rest of their games

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

It's a confidence thing at the back, add to that we haven't had a right back since Repka left, Spector, Paintsal, Meers and Daily might as well spend Saturday's at home for the good that they do us on the pitch. Interestingly enough I see we are in for Upson again, the last time we were in for him we signed Bowyer instead, let him go to one of our rivals and got relegated!

The bit about Mourinho came from the BBC, it says the story was reported in various newspapers and I agree totally that it would be farcical to sack him because they were struggling (although didn't that happen to Ranieri, finishing second and reaching the Champions league final wasn't good enough then) however now is the time to scrutinise his performance, he probably made it look easy when they were winning every week, the measure of greatness is how you behave when things are going against you

If the current trend continues, it looks as if Leeds will go down to the Third Division (sorry, Coca Cola Football League One), and Scunthorpe will be promoted to the Second Division (sorry, Coca Cola Football League Championship).

I blame Global Warming/Climate Change/whatever it's called this year.

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Good news this evening.......for united fans anyway

Aston Villa 0-0 Chelsea

BBC Sport

Still some way to go yet though.

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Villa holding Chelski? Who'd have thunk it?

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Villa were crap but Chelski were as bad. How much they need a goalscorer.

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Would they want your Chris or ours,:)

Re: Football Talk 2006/2007 Season
 

Lost me there.

They can have Neil Harris though. Maybe Gary Holt to replace Makelele.

(and when you say "ours", precisely which team are you referring to? ;))

good news for nugget :tu:
