*Official* English Football Season 2005-06

[Neil Pickup]

Gone, 3-1. No way back here for Donny - gutted. Lucky old Arsenal...

 

[BoyBrumby]

Never in any doubt. 3-1 to The Arsenal on pens.

 

[superkingdave]

good to see the Yorkies go down in the end.

 

[sledger]

although i still rate him as a poor player, not arsenal standard anyway, almunia really saved arsenal this evening with a series of decent stops, and again hes won a match on penalties for arsenal as he did against sheff utd last year.

In fairness, that one was won because Paddy Kenny could only fall over one way...

 

[sledger]

still needed almunia to make the saves though, having said that yes indeed, paddy kenny demonstrated that he wasnt exactly fantastically equipped to change the result in any way.

Going on recent form, he is Arsenal standard.

 

[Craig]

those were the days

And you still remember the days in the EPL?

 

[superkingdave]

And you still remember the days in the EPL?

yes, but i probably prefer the 89-90 and 90-91 seasons

George Burley has been apointed head coach of Southampton with Clive woodward as director of football. If all parties can get along then Burley is an excellent apointment

 

[Tom Halsey]

Well in fairness, "Arsenal Standard" isn't particularly high at the moment.

 

[Agent TBY]

Well in fairness, "Arsenal Standard" isn't particularly high at the moment.

Which is precisely what he implied in the first place.

 

[roseboy64]

Exactly.

Clive Woodward as director of football? If he wants to go into football and all good luck to him, wouldn't he better off in being Burley's assistant or some other role where he can learn his job and more about football, instead of being in a role which ultimately decides who stays and goes from Southampton?

English super power, the second biggest club in England, 1982 European Cup Champions Aston Villa are likely to be taken over by an Irish consortium by the new year.

How long ago was this consensus made?

I'd like to know how Aston Vanilla can be the second-biggest club in England by any stretch of the imagination.

some interesting games between England big guns today:

Firstly Man U are in 2nd after a solid 3-0 win today, hopefully they will win their next 3 games in this festive period.

Chlesea were ran close by Fulham it seems, odd thing to see Joe cole on the right he looked good, seems a very good wing player.

Liverpool spoiled Owen home visit, saw a bit of it that defense didn't give him much room at all.

Arsenal will be glad to finally break their loosig streak againts an improved Charlton, reports say big Sol Campbell was solid presence at the back, very good to hear.

Joe Cole's been playing wide right for Chelsea for about a year and a half now. With two left-footed wingers and two right it doesn't make any sense to play a right-footed one on the left or vice versa, hence Robben and Cole are now first choice as opposed to Robben and Duff.
