*Official* English Football Season 2008-2009

[GIMH]

8 years ago the mighty whites and Leicester played in the League Cup Final, tomorrow we play each other in the third tier, mad. I mean, we've been **** long time but Leicester's decline is one I never foresaw.

I see none of you ****s answered my call for predictions, 2-0 whites I'm saying, can't remember what I said before

 

[Matteh]

1-1 imo

 

[GIMH]

I'd take that tbh

Gutted they sold Hume though wanted to give him an awesome ovation, maybe a hug

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Most likely that Corluka will now move to Spurs, as Kompany coming in pretty much paves his way out of the club.

Stupidest move ever if so. I doubt Hughes would be that ********.

 

[roseboy64]

Kompany can play defensive mid too. Not much idea how your central midfield stacks up though.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Apart from Deitmar Hamann there's not much in the way of defensive midfielders in the squad.

 

[roseboy64]

Not sure if he actually can play there but he'd be helpful if he can then.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Apart from Deitmar Hamann there's not much in the way of defensive midfielders in the squad.

Couldn't Fernandes or Johnson play there?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Johnson would be wasted at DM but yeah, Gelson plays there for the national side as well. It's tough being a DM in England, you need to really be strong and tough, don't think either are experienced enough for it full time. If we were going to go with a DM I'd like to see 4-2-2-1-2 with Gelson sitting next to Hamann (who I rate pretty highly still) but I don't think it suits the rest of the side, so balls to it.

We don't have two strikers anyway.

 

[Johnners]

Citeh should get Grella if they want a DM imo (y)

Moreso because he's Australian than anything else.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

We need a right winger desperately, Elano shouldn't be playing there. We should go after SWP imo, he wants to leave and we'd love to have him back.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Have stuck a fiver on a six-way accy that pays out just over £80 if it comes in. Looking for wins from:

Liverpool
Blackburn
Birmingham
Derby
Dagenham & Redbridge
Celtic

D&R versus Port Vale the dodgy one, but the former are top of Div 2 with 2 from 2, so hope springs eternal.

 

[Loony BoB]

Guess you've lost a fiver. Also: Derby? Really, now...

 

[superkingdave]

Should be top of the league tonight woop, hattrick from the crim

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

lol @ Tottenham, gotta love misery at White Hart Lane.

Liverpool steal one again.

 

[grecian]

First win in proper football for well over five years. The moral of the story is clear, telling me not to go watch them. First match I missed, we win. I'm thinking of keeping this up, from now on. Imagine the money I'd save, and I can go see them when we get to Wembley again.

A bit embarrassed about Exeweb, tbh. Lots of talk about Torquays loss against Crawley.

They're not our ****ing rivals, ffs, and the fact we're now a league above them (metaphorically and actually) should mean we put all our hate toward the Green slime. Next year, after all, will be our proper derby.

 

[roseboy64]

Arsenal looking shaky at the start.

 

[roseboy64]

Awesome goal from Ricardo Fuller.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Arsenal looking shaky at the start.

Yeah, well when you're a one-man team & that one man isn't playing you're gonna struggle, frankly.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Liverpool, absolute ****ing ****s. Still, at least Fulham provided some amusement for us for the day.
