Am I missing something Martyn, you never actually said why you hate Bolton? Heck I can see why you would hate Liverpool or Everton or Man U, but nothing was said about Bolton IIRC.

best division - Gotta be a the Championship, though the PL looks like it is going to have a good finish.

best manager - SAF, of course.

worst ***** - Either the Dippers or Chavski. Can't decide who I detest more.

best moment of the season - Definitely the Dippers going down to H&WLV.

Excuse of the season - "Linesmen really shouldn't be giving penalties in games this big"

Interview of the season - Got to be Grant's a few weeks back.


Unfortunate - That the above weren't joined by Jester

**** of the season - Steven Gerrard or Didier Drogba. Or that **** Michael Dawson.

As for Bolton, we've been rivals for some years now really. It was always like a lower-league Liverpool-United sort of thing. Rivalry peaked when Aldo and Allardyce were at the helm and we were playing each other regularly, obviously they don't give a **** about us these days with being in the Prem and all. Was looking like we could both be in the same division next season til we bottled it, we could have renewed rivalries.

My original post was much better but CBF

best division - Premiership IMO, Championship has been very tight and all, but the top is basically decided now, bottom is still interesting. Premiership is interesting at both the top and bottom.

best manager - SAF.

worst ***** - Liverpool. Amusing if Leeds spend another season in the third tier too.

best moment of the season - Between the Thompson reactions to going behind against Havant, losing to Barnsley, Riise's own goal, and Tuesday when we made it to Moscow.

Excuse of the season - "Linesmen really shouldn't be giving penalties in games this big." It is a good one, I have to say.

Interview of the season - Benitez and Grant's interviews both take some beating, however Des Lynam interviewed Ferguson back in November, quite a long interview about his time at the club, very interesting too.

Best former team of Chris Greenacre's to be relegated this season - Mansfield, they can take solace in this prestigious award, if you say so GIMH.

I'm not Turkish, but you can tell I'm delighted - Leeds have failed to get into an automatic promotion spot, and may well spend another season in League 1.

Unfortunate - That Everton didn't catch Liverpool as once looked possible.

**** of the season - Matt Le Tissier, if you want someone still in football then Kevin Davies.

Best Division - Premiership, actually. The Chmpionship has been close, but you really wouldn't want to watch too many of the games played. Most of the teams likely to go up (West Brom, Stoke & Watford in particular) play route one, dog **** football. The Prem meanwhile has (inevitably) finsihed with the same top four & the same top two (although The Arsenal looked to have made a leap forward until we ran out of players), but the race will go the wire & there's potentially still 7 who can go down with two games left. & all right-thinking people hope it'll be Brum & The Wankers.

Best Manager- Paul Ince. Yeah, I know he's in charge of an evil, soulless franchise, but he's won the double (Div 4 & wahtever the Associate Members' Cup calls itself nowadays) and they've played decent football to do it.

Worst ***** - T*ttenham, as ever. Sacked the bloke who'd led them to consecutive fifth places after Levy spent the summer flashing his knickers at any eligible European manager & then came on like Billy Big Biscuits when they knocked our youth team out in the semi of the League "****ing" Cup.

Best Moment of the Season - It's tempting to play the parochial card here, but really it's probably Barnsley's cup run, in particular them beating yer Scousers & the Chavs en route to the semis, where the spoilsport Welsh ****s hadn't read the script.

Excuse of the season- "Martin is distraught, it's not in his nature to commit a malicious tackle. He didn't feel there was much contact." Oh, well that's ok then, Alex. As long as his shin-high, studs-raised one-footed lunges aren't malicious...

Interview of the Season- Slaven Bilic's "we beat you because we're better than you". Fair point; well made.

I'm not Turkish, but you can tell I'm delighted - Has to be Arsenal winning 2-0 in Milan. Performance of the season.

Unfortunate - That Arsenal can't ****ing defend leads anymore. 8-)

**** of the season- Cashley. Biggest stroker in football? Oh, yes.

Young Gareth Barry, he's young award- Michael Johnson at Citeh. Liverpool "watching his progress", reportedly. He's got some engine, the boy. Frazier Campbell at Hull has been good too, but loses points for being on loan from ManUre.

Was meant to be in work, but too much staff as the pubs dead. Walk out, say to dad (bear in mind its 1-0), 'Not gonna stay, got too much to do, this games gonna die on its arse anyway'

Get out of the car its still 1-0, get to the PC its 3-0...... Load up SS score page to see who scored, and its 3-1. So yeah, great idea by me there.

You have to laugh sometimes, Tyler's just said "Arsenal will be out of the title race if United win today" If, Martin, if? :laugh:
