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

Middlesborough will need a miracle to overturn Sporting after leaking three at the Riverside.

Anyway - only one game matters tonight. Must beat Burton.

 

[Langeveldt]

Arsenal should have a few of their better crybaby diving mercenaries back

You could always shorten it to their CDM's.. Would save you a lot of typing and we'd all know what you mean

 

[Smudge]

Not a huge football fan, but what do you all think of Ryan Nelsen? Seems to have come on in leaps and bounds at Blackburn.

Okay, I'll use CDMs from now on and I'll resist the infantile urge to pad the abbreviation/acronym out by a further 3 letters.

Right now its just a case of how many games before Chelsea are crowned champions.

Their next 3 games are:
Crystal P (H)
Southampton (A)
Birmingham (H)

9 nailed on points if i ever saw them

Assuming Manure beat Fulham and Blackburn at home and norwich away (pretty guaranteed) they'll face off against Chelsea 11 points behind with 6 games left.

If Chelsea were to win they would be 14 points clear with 15 availabke for Manure.

Even if Chelsea were to lose the game against Manure and then against Arsenal, they would have 3 pretty easy games (Fullham, Charlton at home and Bolton away) before finishing up at Newcastle.

Personally i see the Chelsea Manure game as a draw, and the Arsenal Chelsea one also. That would put Manure 9 points behind with 4 to play(if they beat Everton). So i have Chelsea winning it at the Reebok (maybe they can stop off at OT on the way home for a laugh)

[chris.hinton]

Oh and Arsenal beat Balckburn 1-0 at midday Van Persie Scored

UEFA: "Uefa today announced the opening of disciplinary proceedings against Chelsea FC, head coach Jose Mourinho, assistant manager Steven Clarke and security responsible Les Miles for making false declarations. Notably in the complaint sent by Chelsea FC following the UEFA Champions League match played against FC Barcelona at the Camp Nou on 23 February 2005. By further disseminating these wrong and unfounded statements, Chelsea FC allowed its technical staff to deliberately create a poisoned and negative ambience amongst the teams and to put pressure on the refereeing officials."

Volker Roth, the chairman of Uefa's referees' commitee, called Mourinho "the enemy of football".


What a load of tosh, UEFA will no doubt fine the above infinitely more than the racists. This group of gormless halfwits obviously has it in for Chelsea, I hope even more that Chelsea win the champions league this season.

 

[BoyBrumby]

UEFA's anti-racism stance is f*cking pitiful.

Luis Aragones was fined £2000 for making racist comments about Thierry Henry and everyone's favourite fascist sympathiser Paolo Di Canio got stung for £7000 for his Nazi salute after a Lazio game. Compare that to the £35,000 Robert Pires was fined by the French federation for wearing a Puma shirt during an interview while on international duty (France are sponsored by Adidas).

What sort of message does that send out? Just madness.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Much as I hate Pires, that actually is ludicrous.

 

[Neil Pickup]

And don't forget the £400 or so one of the La Liga sides was fined.

 

[Pratters]

Mourinho sucks

That is all.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Wonderful rubbish comment as usual, give me some evidence and I might even listen to some of your other comments.

Amen

 

[Pratters]

Wonderful rubbish comment as usual, give me some evidence and I might even listen to some of your other comments.

The Andy Cole related news and the champions league barca game news.

On perspective, you may just find out whos comment is rubbish in reality.

Perspective tommy boy. Perspective!

 

[Tom Halsey]

First off, Ashley Cole, get your facts right.

Tapping up goes on all the time, common fact. (Wouldn't mind them being deducted points, though!)

And WRT Barca, Barcelona are hardly angels with their sour grapes.

 

[Pratters]

Ah its common fact that Mourinho will go any extent to cheat on rules to show he sucks

And WRT Barca, Barcelona are hardly angels with their sour grapes.

Oh, so if Barca suck, Mourniho can actually suck?

And I am not saying Barca do suck or not.

If you find some one who has done the things Mourniho has done with the two mentioned incidents as not sucking, I fail to see why on these specific incidents atleast.

 

[Link]

Mourhino sucks because he commented on a ref. What are you talking about. After every premiership match one of the managers has something to say about the ref. So does every suck??

 

[Tom Halsey]

1) Ah its common fact that Mourinho will go any extent to cheat on rules to show he sucks

2) Oh, so if Barca suck, Mourniho can actually suck?

3) If you find some one who has done the things Mourniho has done with the two mentioned incidents as not sucking, I fail to see why on these specific incidents atleast.

1) While tapping up is against the rules, almost every club in Football is guilty of it... not worse than anyone else there.

2) What the hell are you on about?

3) Find someone who has done what Mourinho has done? What, criticised a ref, said he saw the Ref with another manager (which is not a new one either) and supposedly tapped someone up? That should be easy.
