***Offical*** English Football Season 2004/05

Lose what??

You have left me dumbfounded and confused and I had no idea that this was an arguement.

Me: That team is rubbish.

You (I assume defending them): Most are internationals.

Me: Doesn't make them good.

Maybe I misunderstood it.

I disagree - at least its competitive and not a meaningless friendly.

Yes, but it's most likely a game on a dodgy pitch with much potential for injury.

 

[Tom Halsey]

I'd rather that than the long haul to America or something, which seems to me a complete joke.

richardson opens the score for west brom who are now one up against blackburn,

damn them baggies, surely they cannot stay up and southampton go down, thats just plain awful

Farewell to Highfield Road, but what a way to sign off

 

[Tom Halsey]

Southend are going to blow it.

Ruddy Crewe! Can't do ONE simple little thing properly. It's not hard to beat a Southern side!

 

[BoyBrumby]

Fair play to Chelski. Head & shoulders above this year; worthy champions.

Just hope The Scousers can finish off the job on tueday tho!

You're not kidding.

Wheels have fallen off Derby big time. They'll probably still make the play-offs but their confidence must be shot big time.

Still, good old Nothingham Florists. Didn't let me down.

Excuse me a minute....

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Thanks. Had to get that off my chest.

It is when they've gone 20odd without a win.

I fear the worst now - a rampant Coventry side who are scoring goals for fun

You can find out yourselves next week when you play Reading!

Whereas Town have a relatively peasey game with Brighton....

Finally the CDMs are officially confirmed as Premiership also-rans. Now I just need Man Utd to win the FA Cup final.

"We are the Champions!!!!" COME ON CHELSEA!!!

Well you're consistent, I have to give you that.

Were you abused by a munitions worker as a child or something? All this bitterness must spring from somewhere.

Strangely enough that's the only reason I can think of as to why anyone English would support the CDMs in the first place. At least if it was some kind of religion there'd be an excuse - ie you were dumb, brainwashed or desperate.

So it's simply good old-fashioned xenophobia. Healthy.

Well, and this may be news to you, Arsenal actually aren't the only team in England to employ some foreign players. So your picking on them is still pretty arbitrary.

Anyway, irrational hatreds by definition defy explanation so I don't expect you to provide one. I just wish you'd take your one-man show to somewhere you'd find a more appreciative audience.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Not xenophobia at all, if they were a French club in name and played in the French league I'd have no problem with them, I'd merely dislike them as much as any other French club.

& that sentence doesn't strike you as even the teensiest bit ironic?
