Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Sad, isn't? But nothing less than the whole truth.
It'd be nice to stuff Chelsea as well though. |

A season that simply couldn't end quick enough for us a month ago has now belatedly become a thing to cherish and enjoy - with a discernible buzz in Toon again about next season and Keegan's plans for world domination. For now though, a reassertion of regional superiority was most welcome. <basks in regional superiority> |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
oohhh, 0-0. ronaldo misses penalty, good grief. all set for the return next week then, no predictions this time, too close just hope deco and messi still are not fit and bloody henri falls on something sharp, was not happy to see him come on at all. scholes magnificent, giggsy wasted should have come on for park at half way.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Interesting results in the EPL today, eh? Toon continue their unbeaten streak and now have a hand in the premiership outcome for Chelsea and (by default) for Man U as well. At least next week's game won't be just a formality.
|
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
After all their efforts, it's hard to believe that Man U might end the season with nothing.
Looking forward to next season, I think your lot are guaranteed a minimum of 17th place (I mean, looking at the current promotion selection from the championship). I can't see any of those teams faring much better than Derby did this year. 1 Stoke 45 14 78 2 West Brom 44 31 77 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 Hull 45 19 75 4 Bristol City 45 -2 71 5 Watford 45 6 69 6 Crystal Palace 45 11 68 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 Wolverhampton 45 4 67 8 Ipswich 45 8 66 9 Sheff Utd 45 6 66

worrying times at utd, possible turn around next week with the return leg against barca. still think we'll get league title at the pie eaters last game. |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
I used to go to see Stoke in early seventies when Banks was their keeper and they had the genius of Alan Hudson
I felt gutted for them yesterday because they were promoted until Hull scored their winner with 5 mins to go !! |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
I think we got it.
united will draw against west ham leaving us to go to the toon last game of season where we shall hand outa footballing lesson. Result chelsea champs Fergie choking on his gum and king Kev pulling out his dodgy perm. |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Nah, they're not "my lot". They've just been incredibly entertaining to watch this season, don't you think?
Same with Arsenal (at least for the few times I've seen them). Like I say, really surprising to think that Man U. could end with nothing and Chelsea have somehow got a chance to win both the Champions league and EPL.

Your lot too I would think. At best. |

Who are you going to be cheering for on May 5th? but you cannot count on lucky streaks etc, and there is always the old argument of making your luck. i remember the first big arrest i had. an old sgt congratulated me, i said i was just lucky, right place right time. he replied, "no such thing as luck, its just good hard work" |

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
We have a chance and thats all you can ask for with only a couple of games to go.
See liverpool fielded a crap team so they could rest all the big boys ahead of the return leg. its a disgrace they have an advantage over chelsea and manu just because they have had nothing domestically to play for since january |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
not trying to get any excuses in as i think we will still win but it does p you off
|
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
More pearls of wisdom from King Kev....
Asked if he thought Fergie would send him a case of wine for beating Chelsea on Monday he replied: "I doubt it! Not a good one anyway. It'll be one of those Chateauneuf du Plonk!" "I'm only kidding. I don't have a preference who wins the title. The best team usually win — except the time when we lost it. That time the best team came second." Sour grapes make fine wine after all. |

Not at all. A typically churlish remark too.
Y'rup 1-0 at the half. Hopefully, Gary ' I speak in the 3rd person and hate all scousers' Neville won't play in the final. Talksport are raving about Wes Brown... |

That was all a bit tense at the end. For anyone that didn't see it, Scholes's goal was a belter:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
good luck to Chelsea today, lesser of two evils for me

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Praying for a Liverpool victory tonight but not hopeful......not scored at Stamford Bridge in 8 matches
...think United could beat Liverpool at will...........a lot tougher to beat Chelski.... |

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Chelsea just had a goal disallowed in extra time, very controversial!!
update- Chelsea have just been awarded a penalty and they have scored, Lampard |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Chelsea 2-1 up in the first half of extra time. A penalty scored by Lampard.
|
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Chelsea 3-1 up
|
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
3-2!
Surely not... 2 minutes to go. |
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
3-2 FT. Man Utd vs Chelsea in the final.
|
Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
tried to throw it away at the end but just clung on. Don't ever want to play liverpool in the champions league semi again. Aged plenty
