Seven goals without reply? Villa can't manage to score seven goals without reply over an entire season :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

So modest. If you exclude the first half, you did it last night :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

In all fairness to Wycombe, they probably got confused. For a start, 3 of our midfielders scored and, to cap it all off, we actually managed to score from the penalty spot. I can't remember that happening for about 5 years :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

It wasn't a penalty though, to cap it all off :)

Other news - Brazilo-Irish superstar Gilbert 'The Invisible Wall' O'Silva has signed a four-year extension to his contract. Patrick Who?

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

You'll be the only one there.....;)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Of course it wasn't really a penalty - if it had been, Barry would have missed ;) :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

He was probably doing the decent thing and trying not to score ;)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Ah well, in that case, I'm surprised his boot didn't fly off and concuss the 'keeper :disturbd:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Don't be! We have a great squad full of youngsters, and a few points to prove. I think we will surprise a few of the bigger clubs this season.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Nah you won't. Even Villa let you win 4 - 0 :erm:

Snap!

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Pah! Coming from a team that even nicked Villas colours :PP: !

Anyway, we used to be big, until we started letting Marlon Harewood score a hat-trick against us. Even West Ham fans know he's rubbish :p: :D

If 4 goals in 2 games is rubbish, let's get some really bad players in! Who are Villa willing to sell?:rofl:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Most of the first team, if last Mondays performance was anything to go by :LOL:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Marlon Harewood is UNDISSABLE. How DARE YOU.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

'Cos he's fundamentally crap, and can only score goals against teams as shoddy as mine?

Oh, and because he has the temerity to wear gold boots, the ponce ;) :p:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Thats even more poncey than white boots! Which I had the misfortune to wear during a game last year. Why does everyone go for the bloke in white boots? I went back to my trust black ones soon after.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

'Cos everyone think's they're the lines, man :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I think to wear white boots you need to have the ability to back it up. While in my mind I am the master of the Cruyff turn, I usually end up on my ****.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Whos going to cause the biggest upset tonight than me thinks it will be Lincoln. :)

No because he is a LEGEND and he is total sheer class.

Squeaky bum time for Fulham...they were 2-0 up, but it is now 2-2

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Man city are not doing much matter :Yikes: 0-0 against doncaster :)

Man city and Fulham scored are almost the same Moment :Yikes:


listen to the fulham here

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Fulham scraped it 5-4! But Doncaster have equalised!

Looking at it, Fulham were 4-4 at one point, after being 4-2 in extra time!

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

What is it with Pearce and penalties :erm:


Doncaster Win ! :Yikes:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

3-0 on penalties! Practise is required! :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I would say so :Yikes: just look at the faces of the city fans :tu:

All the upsets just so happen to be sky games this week. :Yikes:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Fulham just make it 5 - 4

Doncaster win 3-0 on penalties :)

Edit: Whoops a bit late but never mind ;)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

guess you could say Pearce is lost with the city. ;)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

He was worth the wait and value for money methinks :D

Poor sod !! :redcard:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I'm sorry but I don't know whether to laugh at him (he did play for Leeds, come on) or to feel sorry for him :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Indeed he is but better a Poor sod at Real than just a sod at Newcastle. :tu:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Very Good :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Haha :LOL: :rolleyes:

TAXI for Woodgate, nother example of Real WASTING taxpayers' money...

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Nope. He's probably on better money than Newcastle, so he's a richer sod.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Guess so plus the weather is better over there if only thay had a Hairdresser He'd be set up. :tu:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

It'll be interesting to see if Barcelona can pull this one off. If they do then I think it'll be safe to say @rse won't be bothering United or Chelsea for a while.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Player seeking new contract, stories abound in the media about a move abroad. Surprise, surprise. Shame about all the players who've signed new contracts already this season (Cole, Fabregas, Reyes, Gilberto...).

I seem to remember 'van Nisteldiver to Real Madrid' a couple of years ago - what happened to that?

I'm more worried about Henry's injury, tbh. We can't rely on central defenders scoring two goals a game all season.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

What signs are these that he is supposed to show? Lift up his shirt after scoring a goal and have "I want a new contract" written on his t-shirt?

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Why is that a shame?

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

who Wouldn’t wanna play for Barcelona ok at the end of the day it will probably
Come down to Barcelona offering him more money than the gunners can aford
To keep him there.

The showdown - Swansea City v. Nottingham Forest
 

We're gonna thrash them, us Swansea boys. Damn that I live in Nottinghamshire!! :shocked: :D

Re: The showdown - Swansea City v. Nottingham Forest
 

:tu: But I hope they beat the jacks.

Then again this is Forest we are talking about so I guess not.

If all else fails then in in the words of the Kaiser Chiefs - I predict a riot

:D

Re: The showdown - Swansea City v. Nottingham Forest
 

I see you have been dreaming again :disturbd: you really should lay off those pills :PP:

Arsenal a dirty side, never...

BBC Sport

Re: The showdown - Swansea City v. Nottingham Forest
 

You're in a catch 22. You're a Swan living in Notts...

- Swansea win - you're happy but the locals are peed that your side has beaten forest. You get dissed... making you peed.

- Forest win - you're peed because your side got caned by Megson's football genius ( :erm: ) all the locals are happy and take the rip because you "support a **** side" and that pees you off more...

Personally I think Trundle will pwn us. Hoult is a decent keeper but all Eaden does is hoof it, Morgan's too much of a ****head to care about his career (we used to sing "you'll never beat Wes Morgan" now everyone beats him), we don't have a fit, senior left back (Padula's injured, Curtis is a right back, Thompson has been playing there but he's not a right back- meaning we might have to recall pie-face), Breckin's good but 1/4 isn't.
Midfield is probably our best area. Southall's been good, as is Commons. In the centre if Megson has any sense he'll keep Perch and Friio in there, much as I don't rate DF it's a winning side.
Up front Lester has been a revelation since coming back from serious injury - we need to keep him in the side, and Johnson is... erm... Johnson...

Needless to say, an away trip to the side first in the league, I can only say 3-1 to Swansea or more... but my pessimism has haunted me in the past.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Swansea to win 2-0 :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Barnet & Grimsby are through then :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Hearts beat Rangers 1-0 :) thay now have an 8 point leed at the top of the SPL :tu:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

that will be a nice little earner for Barnet, whatever the result :tu:

the Grimsby v Newcastle match is going to attract some interest after the Spurs result (and what they did to Liverpool, as well, a couple of years ago). Hopefully it will get a TV showing, for a few extra quid - only 9,000 odd seats at Blundell Park - Newcastle probably want that many, just for them.....

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ! 1-0 up :tu: :tu: :tu:

It ain't over till the fat lady sings and and she Hasn’t sang yet just remember Newcastle ;) 12 point a head of Man Utd and thay still blow it. :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Yes but when Newcastle were 12 points clear, they hadn't acheived their success by buying it.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

.. after just managing to scrape a lucky draw ......... :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

The same can be said about Forest ;)

Everton are not have a good time at the moment thay lost to wigan. :Yikes:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I believe it can be.. :D

Can't believe the Swans couldn't kill Forest off once and for all. :disturbd:

AND we should have had a penalty.

We have a football club in Bromley? what our nicknames ? Pikeys United ? ;)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

so did Bromley win today. :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Strange goings on in the SPL.

Hearts 1 - 0 Rangers

either rangers have lost the plot and not interested in the league, or they are dismal this season.

but by the looks of it, Hearts have got the will power to win this season.

this is making the SPL very exciting. IMO

ik

Hail Hail

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Hope it is exciting this year Normally the SPL is a lot of ****.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

That's Megson for you. :rolleyes:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I can't quite understand Megson's quote, either! :shocked:

Anyway, good game - closely fought. :)

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Yeah that's because megson talks sh*t. You're top though, so you should have won.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

And nice to see White Rock being sold-out as well :D

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Excellent, just excellent! :D

nffc: Yeah, we should've really taken you apart with a few goals. I think your 3-1 prediction was an agreeable one - shame we didn't live up to it. :(

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

On the day though, we were the better value until our incompetent manager took centre stage. Doesn't hide the fact that you're top and a week ago we were in the relegation zone, and the match ended all square...

Still at least Trundle didn't pwn us.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Or because Hearts have their own Abramovich.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

look on the bright side next season you will have a derby as leics come plummeting down to join you :(

all sorts of things going wrong for us at the moment but yet again we concede from a set piece.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

could be true, but he aint paying the money like abramovivh has/is

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

It would seem that way Russ, I blame them for the downturn in attendances in the premiership, :) but then I would, wouldn't I :D

According to this it's all press hype:-

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/4280006.stm

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Probably, but I think its Chelsea's fault anyway :p:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Did anyone notice during the Liverpool Birmingham match then when Garcia was coming on as a sub, he took his ring off and put it in his mouth, so the linesman wouldn't see it, and when he was on the pitch he took it out and put it back on. The ref then sent him back to take it off.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

:shocked: you should send that in to Third eye :Yikes:

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

you can see how bad things are at Man U as we now havea chant of "attack attack attack" the team should be doing that anyway

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Man U have a good first 11 as any team including chelsea the difference is chelsea can rotate players without been weakened.

Arsenal are just weaker altogether now I think, not enough strength in depth with strikers.

Re: The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Arsenal's mistake was selling Vieira, even if he wanted to go, he is probably the best box-to-box midfielder in the world or at least one of, and he's proving difficult to replace. Apart from that, they rely a lot on Henry's goals and assists, they don't really have anyone else as creative or prolific.

Man U - RvN aside there's little goal threat in spite of Ferguson shelling out on Saha, Smith, etc etc. He seems to prefer Smith in midfield and Saha's always injured, and Solksjaer who I consider probably their best predator (if not, must run RvN close) has missed about 2 years. Defensively they're not bad, van der Sar is the keeper they should have got instead of Bosnich good as he was/is, and now van der Sar is getting on so hardly a future planning move.

Chelsea don't score many, but they rarely concede, 1 goal this season. If you don't concede you draw the game even if you don't score, if you score, you win. They don't NEED to score, because they don't concede.
