Is it April 1st already?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Well it's a true statistic :)

Unlike this rediculous "Stewardship League" tosh. Just something dreamt up by an Arsenal fan to feel good about a board who saddled themselves with debt to build an overpriced stadium and have to sell their best players every season as a result. Apparently this means the next generation of Arsenal fans will be better off? Didn't Arsenal win trophies before the new stadium was built?

I also think Fulham are in much better shape than they have ever been so why are they so low when their next generation can continue to build onward and upward?

Chelsea had won nothing before Abromovich who in a short space of time has made them one of the major clubs globally interms of branding so how is their next generation worse off?

As an expert on Football Finance this Stewardship League is just far too random. A nice refreshing talking point though and I am of 110% belief that ENIC (who hold the controlling stake at Spurs) definately put the balance sheet before the fans and team.

Poor Liverpool, could they be the new Newcastle or Leeds? :sneaky:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

As many will say 3 games doesn't make a season- but having played none of the other "Big 4" teams I think it's safe to say Liverpool won't win the league this season. Infact I'll happily take cash bets with people.

If their performances don't improve and with their complex ownership structure not making the Champions League would be disastrous- although given their fame I'm sure there is an Oligarch or Shikh out there who would love to get their hands on Liverpool and inject some funds whilst their impoverished country men suffer.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

At least they're not Everton! :p

Any bets on who the first manager to quit or be fired will be this season?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Paul Hart

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

The famous "red balloon assisted goal":



They say if the football hits the balloon (or any object that shouldn't be on the pitch) then play should be stopped and the referee should restart the game with a drop ball. Apparently neither the linesman or referee were aware of this rule :blink:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Here's the goal.



Here's the Liverpool fan throwing the beach ball after someone (looks like a steward) gave it back to him.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

The above has been removed I think re interference by the red balloon copyright mafia

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Only football news that brought a smile to my face this weekend:D

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I don't know about that.........I thought Villa had a great win :thumbup: made me smile anyway:thumbsup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I would imagine it made most people smile.Just not miserable old me:lol:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

And the referee has been removed from the Prem roster for not knowing the rules.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Such a shame for Liverpool.......I was gutted for them (hint of sarcasm applied).....:rofl:

I have it on good authority that all Man Utd fans officially travelling to Anfield for this Sundays match will be in possession of a red beach ball that will be inflated inside the ground and that the pitch just before kick off may resemble Torremolinos Beach ........should be fun :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Darren balloon boy Bent should have had at least three more so Liverpool have nothing to complain about. They got to realize they are just mid table fodder.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Couldn't have put it better myself........Torres will wake up and smell the coffee soon...(and move)

....tonight might be difficult for them tonight in Champions Lesgue.....heres hoping:)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

:fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed: :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

report in the guardian today, all such items will be confiscated apparently. so much for the famous scouse sense of humour.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

lol it was a Liverpool fan who threw it on the pitch.....................................apparant ly a lot of the travelling United fans this weekend have unfortunately had colostomy bags fitted......(red in colour)

......better be careful as we all know what a sweet bunch of carefree, witty, fair minded individuals they all are......calm down calm down :thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

i know, i like the still images where you can see the anfield crest on the ball as the match ball goes into the net. classic, quite possibly may replace my screen saver, but its a tough call.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Get it changed....she needs a good meal.......:rofl: you need a beach ball with fingers instead !!!

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Is this your work one? :)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

i have trouble making one stick at work with the restrictions, so just end up with a work motto/crest, wonderful. so its just on the PC at home, to remind the missus what i expect her to aspire to.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

My suggestion is get a lot of them printed and place all round the house in strategic places. As you don't want to be lonely put a few extra in the garage as you may be spending a few nights in there. :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

quite, or just this playing constantly in the background, i understand it will be sang on sunday with amended lyrics, waiting for them to be posted on fanzine.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

i've already put one in the fridge to keep her away from my beer.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Liverpool 1 Lyon 2

after the balloon....the clowns and juggler arrived a few days later.........kids are loving it :thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

They're sh*t and they know they are. :rofl:

Carragher was never good but now he looks like his legs are completely shot.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

ho ho ho, how they are missing alonso

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

In the second half Lyon went for the juggler. http://forums.mg-rover.org/images/smilies/getmecoat.gif

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

That because the clowns were already on the pitch.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

CSKA Moscow 0-1 Man Utd R

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

MEN today, bloody spoilsports, and Rooney is doubtful.


United's inflatables hopes beached
Pete Bainbridge

October 23, 2009

POLICE have deflated United fans' hopes of having a ball at Anfield on Sunday.

The table-topping Reds go into the clash with confidence high, while Liverpool are in crisis after four defeats on the bounce.

But the city famous for producing Jimmy Tarbuck and Ken Dodd won't be allowing any humour at their expense after banning beach balls from the ground.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Good luck. :)

Beach Balls

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

From same MEN

Of course there will be no beach ball on the pitch on Sunday. city have signed it for £45 million!!
:rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

a tiger, a lion and a liverpool fan in a small room with you. you have a gun but only 2 bullets, who do you shoot?



the liverpool fan, twice.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Hi fellow football supporters.
Is this thread only open to EPL and Toon fans? Just wondering if you would welcome fans from other lowly championship clubs. I have enjoyed having the mighty Toon visit us and am looking forward to getting the other 3 points next year!!! :fingerscrossed:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

You can say anything today after our 2 NIL win over Utd.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I think that if you'd lost today, Rafa would be looking at his P45.
