According to the grauniad they're not even going to ask for a UEFA license because while under administration they won't get one.

Cross-posted. The Beeb is a little more enthusiastic (but not much) about Portsmouth's hopes.
Do you think they'd beat Barca? |

Well good luck. It would be nice for them.
Do you think they'd beat Barca? I was reminded (with rather too much glee) by a Boro fan hereabouts that there is a history of relegation from the premiership and defeat to Chelsea in an FA Cup final in the same season... 1997, that nice Mr Google tells me. |

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.
However having been at the games when we were beaten by Wolves and Stoke at White Hart Lane after failing to convert chances I knew what was coming from about 75 minutes. Crouch, Bentley and the two centre halves were poor. I thought only Bale had a particularly good game. |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Newcastle have just beaten Reading 1-2 away with their game in hand.
They're 9 points clear of WBA with both teams having three to play and our GD is 13 better than theirs. I'd say we've got a very reasonable shot now at being CHAMPIONS OF THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE!!!! <unfortunately the arcane rules of football mean we can't stay in the league for next year and will now be forced to return to play against the collection of twats and bankrupts in the Premier> |

Err, this a family thread. Man-loving is OK with me although none of my business but I'm not clear what you mean by judas-scum. You might think about being less controversial.
It's OK Novo, maybe you'll be back down in the fizzy pop league the year after!;) |
