So when Ferguson said Arsenal didn't deserve to win the league last year...

 

[vasetti12]

I don't remember recalling him saying that...Did he?...Not sure about that one. So why did the Arsenal fans throw food at alex after they lost against Man U...Is that sporting like? Dont think so..And Arsne calling Man U cheats....hmmm

So when Ferguson said Arsenal didn't deserve to win the league last year...

...he was on a different planet to everyone else.

 

[vasetti12]

So Arsenal go through the whole sesson last year without a lose but when they did lose this year they were out of order.

 

[marc71178]

Its all about the places in the premier league...Whos coming second or third..Whos getting the 4th spot......Fights for places have begun...

Arsenal
Manure
Liverpool or Bolton

 

[marc71178]

well just bringing back old news, MANCHESTER UNITED INTO THE FA CUP FINALS , we are the defending champions so Man Utd all the way.............

Out of interest, where were you born?

 

[marc71178]

Arsenal are the horrible team...They are sore losers and bad sportsmenship....

And of course Manure are completely innocent aren't they

 

[marc71178]

Under aged...Inexperienced player..Unlike Arsenal full of Experienced players come on look at Herny, Ashely cole etc hate when they lose..

Oh course the likes of Keane and Neville are inexperienced as well aren't they?

 

[marc71178]

hmm, i know quite a lot of united fans that don't take it on the chin when they lose.

*cough* Halsey *cough*

 

[aussie]

Out of interest, where were you born?

to be exact... london, england

 

[Craig]

No, because how many games have you seen abandoned because of the fans in recent times?

So Roma should be under five game ban? Saying anything otherwise would make you an idiot.

Should Galatasaray got a five year ban because of their fans stabbed two Leeds supporters which cost them their lives?

 

[Craig]

Right, just thought I'd share my extensive play-off probability calculations I've just created for the benefit of ExeWeb's regulars:

City beating Gravesend = around 85% chance
City beating Carlisle = around 40% chance
Therefore chance of winnng both = around 34%

Then, we must take into account the other teams, and the possible ways that can work out for each (s=success, ie win, and f=fail, ie draw or defeat)...
FF, FS, SF or SS

City then need all three sides to record "FF", "FS", or "SF". The easiest way to work this out is to work out the chance of "SS", and then subtract that from 100%.

Morecambe beating FGR = ~88%
Morecambe winning at Tamworth = ~65%
Morecambe winning both = ~57.2%
Therefore, Morecambe failing = ~ 42.8%

Woking beating Hereford = ~30%
Woking winning at Halifax = ~40%
Woking winning both = ~12%
Therefore, Woking failing = ~88%

Stevenage winning at Crawley = ~55%
Stevenage winning at Leigh = ~95%
Stevenage winning both = ~52.25%
Therefore, Stevenage failing = 47.75%

Therefore, total chance of the messups happening in a way that favour City is that all three fail - 42.8% × 88% × 47.75% = 17.98%

So, the messup needs to happen, and City need to take advantage of it with a double win = 17.98% × 34% = 6.11%

A little higher than my original estimate, and it's certainly a shade higher still when you factor in the probabilities of City not winning both, but getting even more foul-ups in their favour, or Aldershot imploding and failing to take any points from their last two...

So, to summarise, the odds of City making the playoffs are approximately 6.11%, or 15.354 to 1 - so if you get any odds at a bookmakers of 16s or higher, take it!

Seriously mate, you need a 40+ hour a week job.

If Exeter had been more consistent, your team would already be there via the play-offs. At least there was that game at OT to make your season not so bad.

 

[marc71178]

So Roma should be under five game ban? Saying anything otherwise would make you an idiot.

I don't quite follow the first part of the sentence, but then again that might make me an idiot according to the second part.

Should Galatasaray got a five year ban because of their fans stabbed two Leeds supporters which cost them their lives?

Yes, they should've been banned long ago for the continual trouble they cause.

Chelsea are going to win......second place MAN U, 3rd Arsenal, 4th everton...relegation goes to Norwich, westbrom and crystal palace.......

 

[superkingdave]

TBH i can't see Manure getting second place, even if Arsenal lose to Chelsea and Manure beat Chelsea. Arsenal's goal difference is superior and their two other away matches are West Brom and Birmingham. United won't drop many points either, but i see a draw against Chelsea, and Arsenal to take 2nd by 2/3 points

And the replay. And the 4-0 stuffing of Hereford.

in an idealistic world they would be 1st

but who knows, a win on wednesday coudl change everything, rather unlikely but you can never say never, if one more team are gonna beat chelsea this season it will more than likely be arsenal.

 

[Pratters]

one more win, you could well be right, chelsea are no good at playing arsenal. But the fact is the games are running out and to stand a chance of us not losing we will need to lose two or three games.
Now when you consider teams like barcelona and bayern munich who fail to beat us what do the premiership have that they dont. Other than man U, Arsenal and i would say teams like Bolton and Liverpool who dont fear anyone, the league is full of cannon fodder
