Plus its redundant and wouldnt really work in a real league system with promotion and relegation either.

Of course, in the future once the biggest (richest) European teams eventually split off to form a closed shop colossal money spinning superleague, something like that may have to come to pass...

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Newcastle, through no real fault of their own, only have one fit centre back (who, although usually good in the air, is really a Championship class player), so if Carroll can't do well on Sunday it's not their fault.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Well, in the spirit of fair play and all that, may the best team win*:)




* or Liverpool

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Jolly good, ra ra! May the best team win* then.

*as long as it's the one in black & white stripes.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I expect that, as I type, LFC types are working on that in a backroom in Boston as a future third away strip. After all, they already have the blue one sorted:eek:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Trademark violation! I think Pool will have to pay Newcastle, oooh, let's say 35 million. ;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Didnt we already do that. Cant imagine what else induced us to give you all that money.:confused:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Pretensions of grandeur and stupid management?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

You've mistaken us for Chelsea..:lol:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

chelsea win,
headlines.
fernando scores he is on a roll:D

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

A sausage roll.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Oops, looks like another defeat for liverpool. Shame really:)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Peep, peep! New Number nine 2 - Old Number nine Yellow Card.

KD to be fired in the morning?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Definitely turning into another Annus Horribilis for Liverpool. Toon deserved victory.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Or, in the case of Andy Carroll, an Anus Horribilis. :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Liverpool now remind me of watching Man Utd in the 73-90 era......a chance of winning the odd cup or two but absolutely no chance of winning a title.......its a very enjoyable viewing experience.....:rofl:

Well done Newcastle for their totally expected and routine victory.... :thumbsup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

NU totally outplayed Lpool, deserving win IMO

Be refreshing to see a new team get into the Ch League.:blink:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

3 points behind spuds, but it's still a very slight chance. I'd be ecstatic with Europa league & 6th, never mind any higher?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

More to the point is that we're point-level with Chelsea. 5th guarantees the Europa spot, but sixth only goes when one the top 4 win the FA Cup*. Just think how annoyed you'd be if Liverpool win it.

*Or am I out of date? It's been a long time since I had to worry about such things. :)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

A rather pleasant day in the Premier League. An emphatic Spurs win and a loss for the scuzzy bindippers. Please give KK a new contract.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Liverpool have the league cup. So if they win it, and the other lot are spurs or chelsea I don't think it matters. Now if Everton win it...

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Ah. Is that how it works?

OK so 6th for the Toon and anybody but Everton for the Cup?

God I suddenly feel a great hatred for Moyes in development.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I think so, but could be wrong. Makes sense that way though.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

The Graunida report...

"Pardew attributed Cissé's excellent performance to diet. The striker's two goals here took his Premier League total to seven since his debut in February – two more than Carroll has managed in the league in 14 months at Liverpool. "We had Africa day at the training ground on Friday," Pardew said. "We made him feel at home by having curried goat for lunch. It was lovely.""

AKA Curried Carroll.

<poor bastard>

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I'm quite partial to some goat.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Oh well, At least we had one RESULT this weekend:thumbup:

I dont expect anyone else to care, but this is just HUGE here.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not true - I care that you only got one result!

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Yes huge on winning the title but then was it a dissapointment when they found out they would be watching the Leafs :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Yeah, as prizes go that's a bit "third prize in the church raffle":) Seems odd to move it to Belleville, but I guess its a question of getting as many people out as possible under the circumstances.

The atmosphere in the village over the weekend was absolutely amazing. Barry would have been absolutely thrilled to bits.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Either

He dived in front of an open goal.


OR

he tripped over the ball in front of an open goal.


Neither is good is it?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I'm surprised the great tree trunk was so athletic ( and moving ).

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Never a penalty.
I tend to think that the FA have secretly employed a sniper to visit EPL grounds over the last few seasons and have instructed the sniper to target certain players of all clubs.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Well, no, it never was a penalty. He was booked for diving. The manager suggested that maybe he had already lost his balance. Yeah, right, pull the other one.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Well it was Kenny the King (Messiah, Saviour) who said that :lol:
Some of his post match comments have been somewhat strange over the last few matches. I guess he is starting to feel the pressure of being in charge of a once mighty club. I feel your pain as I went through this in the 70s and 80s with Utd.
Ah well time to sit back this afternoon with a few rums and see if we go 5 points clear.
Also it must really hurt having Everton above you :lol:
If its any consolation you are still 3 points clear of Fulham, Swansea and Norwich;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

A hatrick from Rooney and some assists from Ashley Young would do my Fantasy Footy score a power of good....

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Utd dont have a great track record at Ewood :(
I will be happy with a nerve wrecking 1-0 win. These types of games allow you to drink more :lol:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Taken from BBC Text Commentary after Blackburn v Man Utd match..................Somewhere right now there is a big fat lady clearing her throat........

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Instead of that classic movie line Were gonna need a bigger boat we should change it to Were gonna need a bigger trophy room :)
Sorry ABUs there is always next season:p
I know its not won yet but if Le Arse show up on Sunday and we win on Sunday with an earlier kick off you wonder if the 8 point gap will cause a further Citeh implosion and Balotelli meltdown and Tevez to **** off again.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I think you know how much I lurve and reeespect Manure, but if Citeh are out of the race and preferably in meltdown and disarray before we play them at SJP in the second last match of the season, I won't be shedding crocodiles.

<I certainly hope the match will still matter to Toon by then though>.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I will give the Toon credit for their performance this season though Im glad we dont have your May fixture list. 4 x tricky away fixtures will be a test to see if you have the determination to push for European football next season.
You can always park the bus against Citeh.
