Interesting read.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Yes. If the Germans would have had Spitfires ....

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Amazing last day so far

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Intense!

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Priceless. Amazing end to the season.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Yep. One minute left of the prem league and they use it to win it.:D

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Let's hope those Germans have the spitfire against Chelsea next week.

What a final day!

Off to buy my Bayern shirt now..........

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

A splash of colour to the thread, BLUE OK?......:p

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

To the lady from Cheadle that I met at the Atwater Market in Montreal who is a City fan...congratulations...from a die hard Man U fan.

Your husband/partner the Liverpool fan won't have much to be proud of though.

What an end to the season...when the Man U game was over, I thought they had done it and then it all quicked off @ the Man Citeh game.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Is it possible to learn German in a week? If so, I'll be only sprechen sie Deutsching that day. :thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

For anyone who didn't see Barton throw his toys out of the pram (again)...

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Good old Joey. I hope he nevers plays in the prem again.

Bit of a season ending fizzle out for Toon today, but all in all this has been a glorious year. Weee're baaaack! Roll on Europe and here's to an even better season next year.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Just trying to think back over the highlights of the season. A bit of a ramble:

The team I really wanted to watch this season was Tottenham, some very gifted players; manager who ascended to having his head stuck in the clouds, though.

Players who cost a crazy amount and failed to perform: Torres, Carroll, Henderson, Bent.

"Bargain" players: Mclean, Ba.

Met expectations: Bale, Rooney, Hart.

Players to watch: Torre, Sessegnon, Arfa, Silva (fizzled out a bit though)

Surprise 'outstanding' season performance: Newcastle.

Best OAP: Scholes

Biggest twats of the season: Carroll, Barton & Balotelli

Story of the season: Muamba

So if the goal of the season wasn't Aguero's winner today, which one what was it??

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Stop living in the past .... ;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

But the season is over, what am I going to do now??!

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Look forward to a well expected miserable time at the Euro's ?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Exactly :frown:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not the EPL but maybe Montreal Impact fans showing a sense of humor

With these boots he deserves all the stick they can meat out...

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

True but he can still bend and hit a ball with those boots.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

So, do the ends justify the means?

Have City fans totally forgiven Teves his 3 month holiday? Will that be air brushed out of the official history now that City are the victors? Presumably its worth it.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Water under the bridge.

I can imagine Mancini doing some fine tuning ahead of next season re: Balotelli

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I doubt he'll be that bothered. Apparently 3 years left on his contract @ 80k a week and a 250k bonus for helping keep QPR in the premier league.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I thought the Man City V QPR premier league finale was one of most thrilling finals of the premier league's 20 year history. It had me on the edge of my seat, shouting at the tv, even as a neutral fan but was willing for Man City to win.

Congrats to Man City fans on the forum. Also, I have a soft spot for Robbie Mancini, he has something about him. He is a nice, classy and dignified guy and a great manager for managing a few of those divas in his team. Mind you, his antics on the sidelines were hilarious, he reminded me of an Italian Basil Fawlty.

The premiership is such a fantastic and unpredictable league, any one of the top 4 teams could have won the top spot.

Looking forward to the Euros !

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I disagree, Arsenal were never in with a shout to win the title.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Ok, point taken. I thought Newcastle were 'nearly' there in the top spot and were unlucky. Its a shame we can't have a top 5 qualifying for Champions League, they deserved to be in there as well as the toons have been superb as well
What I meant was that EPL is a generally a highly competitive league with regards to La Liga and Serie A etc.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

It will only be top 3 this year:)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

You hope. Howay Bayern!

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I hope not.

It shows what a joke the Champions League has become if a team that is only the sixth best in England is allowed to qualify.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Especially one who got to the final by playing anti-football.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

:)

Rools is rools

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I believe Mourinho once described it as "parking a bus in front of goal".

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

We only had 10 men, after poor Gentleman John was evicted from the fray :(

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Let it just be clearly said. I'll be rooting for the Germans on Saturday.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not sure if knocking 3 past Barca (ahem...sorry...The Best Team in the History of Everâ„¢) was what he was describing when talking about parking the bus... :p

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

It seems that King Kenny has been given the elbow. :thumbdown:
