NAMING RIGHTS THREAD: Liverpool really won't win the Premiership 2010-2011

I thought we were going to get another mask celebration when Tévez unrolled his sock after scoring, but he just pulled out his shinpad and kissed it. Odd.

Great goal though.

”I did give him his autograph, he came looking for confrontation. This guy asked how I was feeling so I just said I was tired from the game on Sunday and that it was a tough game. Then he just replied ‘Oh, we’re tired watching you play every weekend’. Then the guy started screaming at me like crazy. I didn’t understand everything he said but the people next to me said he was saying racist things. Some players told me to walk away and tried to calm this guy but he started smashing some tables and glasses. He started insulting me. So I got up to show I’m not impressed at all by him but this guy was a bit drunk. Danny Gabbidon tried to talk to the guy but he started insulting Gabbidon as well. I never refuse to sign autograph to the fans.” - Demba Ba.

Aiming this at Demba Ba is so v. wrong. I mean sure racism is why he aimed it at Demba Ba and fuck a racist but Ba has been West Ham's one saving grace this season.

Tevez free kick y'day just ridic.

need to see these, dude constantly reminds me he's not an inferior rooney but i keep forgetting

dunno.. roberto carlos hit a good free kick once.

what absolute tools

"We've had suggestions to turn it to 43 which is how long since City last won the league.

"But if we do that it would just give City the motivation to win it again - and it would look a bit petty really."

we can't have that

Just a bit of fun innit?

In 2000, a United fan had the first ticker banner made up which he displayed on the Stretford End before turning his back on the club in 2005 following the Glazer takeover - and taking his banner with him

point of high principle mate

Like if football isn't about childishly ragging on your rivals then i don't even know anymore

But the real rivalry's with Chelsea, what is this 'City' and '19 titles' of which ye speak?

will be hard to distinguish home and away support when norwich go to OT next season. might need a banner to show which end is which.

Oh my aching sides

Place could do with a sense of humour imo.

Good thing you're here to shake up the deadly seriousness of ILX football threads

Had to be him I guess. Blimey he likes a header.

sorry wrong thread

Which thread was it intended for?
'Snake coughs up entire hippo'?

The Norwich end will be the one with the noise.

place=OT

Compared to where exactly?

jeez u utd fans

ye respond better to outright vitriol than to ribbin, rly

they do fucking not

scum

lol

''the ultimate souvenir of the Club’s historic first season in the UEFA Champions League''

Nothing says prestigious luxury exclusivity like ‘Aero Bang Tottenham’

Presumably it stops completely after about seven months and stays frozen.

Rooney threatens Twitter follower

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has told a Twitter follower: "I'll put u asleep within 10 seconds" after being provoked on the social networking site.

The 25-year-old England star, who has a following of over 570,000, was replying to an abusive tweet on Tuesday.

Rooney suggested a meeting at the training ground, tweeting: "hope u turn up if u don't gonna tell everyone ur scared u little nit. I'll be waiting."

In an effort to defuse the situation, Rooney tweeted: "Haha bit of banter".

The forward's spokesman subsequently issued a statement about the incident. "As is made clear in the tweets, this whole exchange is banter," it read.

Of course anything said under the terms of "banter" cannot be used as evidence in any court case or slanderous newspaper article.

Yes, and it's clearly banter, too, from the gentleman Wayne Rooney.

Never heard a better description of him than "fat ugly lil nonse".

25-year-old star

"hope u turn up if u don't gonna tell everyone ur scared u little nit."

On Wednesday night at the Manchester United awards, Rooney's overhead kick against Manchester City at Old Trafford in February was the clear choice for goal of the season.

shit forgot to watch the Man United awards this year, I was tuned in to North Korea's person of the year. Can't believe Kim Jong Il won it again, the guy just gets better and better. when will he retire!!!

Never heard a better description of him than "fat ugly lil nonse".

Do you know what a nonse is?

yeah i have to agree there, much as i hate the little nonse

guess he is more of a granny shagger iirc.

was gonna post Rooney vs Piers Morgan tweets last night

will be hard to distinguish home and away support when norwich go to OT next season. might need a banner to show which end is which.

will help delia locate the twelfth man?

Morgan was straight on to Rooney as soon as he joined twitter. Bit embarrassing really.

defoe not happy with bench role as he's training better than ever

Stfu and score some goals you stupid fuckdog

those ♪♫ s cause me to read that as a jaunty jingle

I'm theoretically okay with the idea of selling Defoe until he goes to Everton or someone and scores 25 league goals.

perhaps he could fit in at newcastle

Wages too high for Everton I imagine?

i know matt but he's just not going to do it for us

I dont think he's 'that guy' anymore tbh

stop writing in verse you, my internal jukebox can't cope

thaaat guuuuuuy thank you, thank you

That's just the way it is
Some players will always be the same

transfers in the night, what were the chances
calls at 3am to trevor francis
