Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
what a load of bottom, my 8yr old daughters team can defend better than that, i have see more organization in chickens running around farmyards with their heads cut off.
damien duff, the emile heskey of the wing, a sight of goal?, better fall over.
michael owen, finished years ago, still plodding on with supposed speed and accuracy, yeah right. two words spring to mind, over and rated. speaking of which has any one told martins that he can actually pass to someone else, its not in the rule book that you must shoot, regardless of distance or space as soon as you get the ball.
kev looks old and bemused, and i'm not surprised. he has my sympathy.

Bad luck to Newcastle but on reflection i am sure that they are happy they didn't gift it to the Mancs.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
there is a huge difference between a close defeat and basically having the ball passed around you for the last 20mins without a touch, oh yes owen had a header, i think they are still looking for it in the street outside.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Should make for a tense Sunday.......
.............the Premiership is what most fans want........the CL being a little bit of froth on the side of the coffee cup
Chelsea have done very well to stick with it despite the handicap of having that idiot managing them for the beginning of the season.
May the best team win. !!

Actually, to the extent that I care at all, I'd rather see Man US win it than Chelsea's bunch of dodgy rouble millionaires.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Excerpted from the nufc.com match report....
Crowd: 52,305. Officially the same as the mackem game and two bodies short of the season's best against Liverpool. However, the huge gaps in the away section were incredible for a team still competing for the title.
Unless there was a travel problem that didn't make the press, it seems that Chelsea fans bought tickets but couldn't be bothered to travel. A sad indictment on a thoroughly unpleasant club.
Yes, the fixture had been moved at a late stage but the thousands of Geordie exiles who travel up from the South all seemed to make it.
Says it all, really.
