*Official* English Football Season 2009-2010

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

To sum it all up: John Terry cheats, can’t keep a clean sheet and scores away from home.

The only one worth a mention IMO.

 

[Uppercut]

Great, cut to two points. Chelsea have been pretty ordinary away from home this season.

 

[duffer]

Provided we beat Liverpool a draw on Sunday would be huge for us.

Chelsea have to go away to Everton, Liverpool, Utd and Spurs and have to play Villa and City at home.

United have away games at Everton, Villa and City while they play Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool at home.

Our only "tough" fixtures are the derby at the Lane and City at home. Staying in touch over the next two games is so huge.

 

[The Sean]

Was so sure of a Chelsea win tonight I went out and didn't bother watching - great result. Another draw on Sunday please.

 

[Uppercut]

I have a feeling Arsenal will get something from the game on Sunday. The fact that their prospects seem so unbelievably bleak on the surface makes me a tad suspicious.

I find Arsenal always turn up in games like this and generally salvage a draw, it always seems that after a bad result or a run of bad results a decent performance is usually pulled out of the bag. I predict that the match will end maybe 1-1, Arsenal probably scoring early on, holding the lead for the majority of the match until Chelsea snatch it back in the dying moments.

I have a feeling you'll beat Chelsea and lose to us. Our defence looks so much better in the last month.

Everton, Spurs and Villa get progressively easier to beat as the season wears on. Don't see Chelsea or Manure dropping many points against them, particularly at home.

United have got both Villa and Everton away though – a little concerned about both TBH, particularly the run of form Everton have gotten themselves into lately.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Well for instance the CDMs have to play Stoke City away, that is likely to be a tougher fixture than playing one of the teams that regularly tails off in the later part of the season.

That didn't happen last year and I can't see it happening this year either.

Everton doing it the other way round this season though

 

[Scaly piscine]

That didn't happen last year and I can't see it happening this year either.

Well they weren't challenging for Europe last season, the teams that do fall over themselves to hand the last Champions League spot to one of the big four. Man City have spent a huge amount and I don't see them falling apart so much. I'd be very surprised if anyone else took the 4th spot. Would quite happily settle for Man City taking it from Liverpool and then Rafa the clown might finally take his brand of foreign mediocrity hording ****e elsewhere.

Watching Fox Soccer Report (on Fox Soccer Channel) and blown away by their sophisticated journalism. Their introduction to the Hull v Chelsea highlights, obviously, dealt with the ongoing trials of John Terry. And the introductory line:

"So John Terry is a bit of a man-whore..."

Those crazy Americans.

 

[Nate]

Wow.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

And now they're looking at the Crystal Palace-Wolves highlights, and clearly they have no clue what the offside rule is. Because they're saying the second goal is a bit iffy for offside purposes, when the right back is clearly a couple of feet ahead of Butterfield (or whatever his name is). Aaaaaaaargh!

Why am I watching this? Because it's the only sports programme of any interest on right now.

 

[social]

Couldnt be any wose than " Tommy (?) Smyth, that's Smyth with a Y" on ESPN.

I can watch any sport but that guy really ****s me

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Is that the bald, chubby guy with no neck? If so, it's only marginally better.

That's him plus he has a hybrid Scots/yank accent and is trying to sell the game to America

Just checking back the Champions league fixtures. Its pretty disappointing that Inter & Chelsea are clashing in the round of 16, either one of them can beat Barcelona this year. It would have been better if they had met in the QF or SF stage.

But i sort of have a gut feeling who ever wins the Inter vs Chelsea clash will win the CL.
