British Expats - The Toon Army / EPL thread

I seem to have stepped into some parallel universe where people are rooting for Liverpool. I'll have to go sit down for a few minutes now I think...

Don't get too carried away. I think the current wave of support is rather more instrumental than emotional. :)

After the season we've had, we'll take whatever. I'm also practising my rendition of 'Deutschland Deutschland'.

Its almost like he's realised that Newcastle have moved on without him, and no other bugger will buy him as is, so he might as well give a damn now, isnt it?

Either that or the fact a nice long summer break is just around the corner.

I hope this bodes well for next season, but that light at the end of the tunnel is more often than not a train coming the other way:eek:

Ha ha ha, Carroll cheating and Downing still can't score. What a bunch of mugs.

Carroll was seriously good for a year and a half at Toon. It's been a (not too) secret pleasure to watch him struggle since, but I think Pool will get something for their 35M in the longer run.

I see you tire quickly of travels through the multiverse.

6th place for Chelsea. That must be their lowest finish in the top flight for quite some time.

Downing is dog poo. I still want the bindippers to batter them more in the second half if only to hear King Kenny's post match interview. ;)

Nice comment here from Simon Burnton doing the grauniad MBM, "If John Terry wasn't John Terry, but was some 20-year-old debutant playing exactly as John Terry has played tonight, he would have been substituted after half an hour, and would even now be preparing for a summer free transfer to Leyton Orient."

If Carroll thought before the match today "if I do my hair up in a ballerina's bun it'll give me more poise" ... it worked.

(But no need to act like such a girly twat by clutching his face, right in the view of the ref, when he took a minor elbow in the chest.)

And while I'm at it, why does he constantly have to wear that "I've had one pint too many" expression on his face?
