Bully I'm not having a go at you personally mate so don't take that way. Anyone can post what they want ( provided it's within site rules) including you and me.

I've posted my personal opinion mate. And that ain't changed. Reading spurs this, Arsenal that is just boring crap IMO, but hey, if that's what you and others want to post then play on.

We're in the play off's but I'm not confident. Our consistency is poor mainly because of the gameplan our manager employs.
I have no confidence that Laws is the man for the job. With our current list we should be up with QPR and Cardiff but we aren't

It's been common for a few years now that at least one of the relegated clubs makes it back to the EPL, and when you look at who came down last season, BURNLEY were by far the strongest candidate. We retained the squad, made £14m profit and finished the strongest where as Hull and Pompey are financially ****** and lost most of their best players.

Could end up a wasted year

Had to laugh at the comments by Arsenal manager Arsene Whinger after the loss to Spurs:

"I'm speechless that we lost this match because if you look at the statistics, it is hard to see how Spurs finish on top..." :lol:

"They shouldn't have been given the free-kick that they scored the winning goal from and luck was against us in other occasions in this game..." =))

I must admit FISH, I read the EPL site at 4 am and couldn't believe what he said. I didn't watch the game and FOX played some other EPL games today, but looking forward to the second half. I have never ever heard him give credit to any other side, so not totally unexpected. I think if Hitler was wearing a gunners shirt, he would probably defend him. Mind you Fergie doesn't give anything away so obviously a ploy for the top dog managers.

Heard sanga scored a ripper! Good win now bring on the dirty northen bastards


MH, bit rich that one, based on English players (sorry shouldn't be talking English players to Goons), we will win. At least Chelski are following your lead, at least they fielded 1 token home grown player last week.


dont know what your on about?

If your having a dig at arsenal then maybe look at tottenham with ape man Bale that thinks hes the bees knees of everyteam. maybe a few good runs and crosses but he cant finish. Your team doesnt have alot of 'english' players either


Bully, (if you come back), IMO, Bales development has been huge over the past year, scoring stats would tell you different to the fact that he can't finish. Unfortunately not sure he will continue playing for my club, should we miss out on the Champions League for next season. Who knows, he might end up with you mob, if you play your cards right. In the last two champions league games he has made, arguably the best right back in the world look silly and scored three times against the best team in the world (last year anyway). I know as a Goon, it is your duty to hate the YID's and naturally vice versa, but you have to appreciate what he is doing in English football.

Fish, finally saw the replay, I even smiled for the first half because I knew what was coming. Cracked me up when THE MANAGER spat the dummy and threw his drink. Photo I definately liked. Had the best game of golf today for ages, golf was terrible, but I played with an Arsenal supporter I hadn't seen in a few months - I am sure he was sick of me when I asked him to mark my ball, with my Spurs ball marker. Probably lucky I still have it.
How long are we able to enjoy this for - surely after 17 years we can play it a bit longer.

Sami Nasri is shaping up to be a very good player. Recent years he has been very up and down week in and out but this season he has certainly filled the void where fabregas has been either injured or out.

Bully, would have to agree he is the form player in the EPL at the minute.

big game this monday between us and man utd. The rivalry has gone a bit in this game over recent years since we havent won the title since 03/04.

I can remeber so very good matches from 1996 onwards especially when god thierry henry was involved

Pretty sure all EPL sides would welcome a Henry into their team when he was at his best.

Here is a question for you, since the turn of the century, who, in your opinion is the most influential player to play in the EPL. Discount any international form, base it purely on EPL form and impact it had on team. Lots of great players, but did any of them have a bigger impact than Henry at his best.

The only player that would come close to Henry would be Ronaldo IMO.

Cantona for me. Slightly biased but the guy probably won more games for utd off his on back than anyone,even ronaldo. Definately henry and bergkamp for you guys. Very high on list would be gerrard, without him liverpool probably would have been relegated years ago, the guy is a superstar.

Pretty hard to look past Henry if talking purely the 2000-2009 decade. Without his goals you would think Arsenal wouldnt have won either of there 2 titles.

Ronaldo really only played 3 notable seasons (altho what 3 they were). Only other player i think who would be in the conversation would be Paul Scholes. Was at the heart of the United midfield for 5 of the prem titles during that era.

Hard to go past Henry, although his teammate Bergkamp was a favourite of mine.

Cantona has to be up there, but I'd think so would Giggs for longevity and quality, and Ronaldo as mentioned, maybe best we dont forget Backham either .. Actually I always thought Schmeichel was the best keeper and they have a pretty big say in things obviously.

From my own mob it could only come from Fowler, Owen or Gerrard.

Shearer was another favourite and obviously he was all class.
