British Expats - The Toon Army / EPL thread

That reminds me (the talk of Sunderland), I saw about 20 mins of the Man City match on the telly this afternoon and Adam Johnson looked like a player worthy enough to be in the World Cup squad. Capello, are you reading this?

I saw his goal against Sunderland earlier in the season and that was good too.

Evidently, Sunderland is better than Newcastle.

Only in footballing history. I still think Newcastle is a much better place to visit than Sunderland.

Mogadishu is a better place to visit than Sunderland.

Thieving bastards.

I've never been to Mogadishu, but from what I've heard about there, I'm likely to agree with you.

(Is Mogadishu the new nickname for Middlesbrough?)

Time investment + constant dissapointment = supporting Spurs

:sad_smile:

I have nothing further to add today due to a combination of embarrasment and depression.

Bollox, you ain't no proper Spurs fan talking like this, is you? We should have had two proper penalties plus a perfectly puckka goal that was disallowed because the ref was ******. We woz robbed. Spurs is the best team ever. I know we don't learn from nothing but we is still the only team in England that is worth anything, anyway.

The semifinal results mean that Aston Villa will get the last Europa Cup place if they maintain 7th.

Clouds. Silver lining.

Pompey are renowned for the surreality of their cup runs, though. It's as if when there's nothing left to lose (cause it's already all so far b*ggered up there's no tears left to cry) they start playing decent football.

It's a sad season indeed when you've only got one more win in the whole of the Premiership season than you have in the FA Cup.

And Pompey's administrator is having to ask for special dispensation to get a Uefa club licence for next season, since they'll get a Europa League place even if Chelsea take the Cup. Unsurprising, really, as having finances in good order (and filing accounts) is a requisite of the Uefa licence.
