Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

i would enjoy paul lambert's mumbling understated praise after their 17-0 victory vs the troubled villans

I'll usually stick up for the underdog who didn't spend tens of millions on transfers. When that underdog is Bolton i can make an exception, though.

Would have rather seen Blackburn stick around.

bolton have just looked so bad lately that any goodwill i had towards them has evaporated, qpr are still managed by mark hughes tho

Bolton have been terrible, but obv I want them to stay up. I'd like some massive retooling in the summer though. Getting better players in - not buying British would be a start. Maybe finding some plan B in case of the unlikely situation that Holden and Lee are both out for the season due to injury...

if qpr didn't have hughes and hadn't spunked a bundle of cash on england's c team in january i'd be for them but they do and they did so.

is the most inventive English striker of his generation included in that c team?

i don't think he's lived in england that long tbh

Stale Solbakken for Wolves, then? Ex-Wimbledon, recently sacked by Köln ... this is bound to be a good move.

he's no Terry Connor

He won a bunch of championships with FC Copenhagen though, right?

so i read. still paper talk at this point.

having said which, i need to stop reading the Express and Star

This weekend we are all QPR fans

no we are not

Except you

This weekend we are all QPR fans (except Gukbe and other Bolton fans and City fans and Mark Hughes haters and people who really don't want to see Man United win the league again)

damn skippy.

I am a QPR fan this and every weekend. So there.

This weekend I'm mostly a Stoke fan. Sorry trotters but you'll never bring the lols like QPR.

see, klata gets it

literally have no idea why anyone would wanna deny the coming to fruition of sparky's budding new hypnotic assortment of skilful francophone loons and clogging britcunts, a burlesque hybrid of newcastle new and old

I forgot about Hughes, he does need to cap his career with a relegation. On balance it can wait though, his self-regard does bring a certain something.

In other news, just noticed that Chelsea under Di Matteo have the worst record in the top half of the table.

what?

Since 4th March:
Chelsea P 10, Pts 15
Liverpool P 11, Pts 13

Ah, scratch that - I've taken it from 4 April.

Dalglish to be moved upstairs, new manager brought in, owners not impressed with the Suarez PR disaster

Where's this from?

Ye Olde Rumoure Mille

Unai Emery please

lol

guy's obviously bored

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G0E6FSXZGA&

is that the same 8-0 game with the ganso backheel goal? the other team should have kicked the living shit out of them

aye, they were begging for a kerloning alright

emery's english was pretty rudimentary last time i checked, but otherwise he is an excellent candidate

can't go wrong with ex-Valencia managers

think we need a '101 stale solbakken newspaper headlines' thread. dudes name is perfect for a football manager.

unai emery couldn't be more rafa if he tried

except maybe for winning the league and the uefa cup, but then madrid and barcelona are a bit stronger than in 2004

Koln were a horror show defensively under Solbakken. How much of that was the players and how much was the coaching I don't know. At least he has plenty of experience with managing drunk players so he should be okay with Roger Johnson.

owners not impressed with the Suarez PR disaster

yeah cos they did so much to help on that front didn't they. heard the dalglish rumour but i think it's a load of bollocks myself. more likely is that steve clarke will be shown the door and new assistant will be brought in, or borrell from the reserves will be promoted. new warrior home kit is lovely btw.

Ooh, very nice. Love the badge. What have they done to Suarez' face though? He's all subtle disproportions.

idk looks a lot cheaper irl in the video, the goalie top esp. think it's the collar mainly

lol at carroll in a roman centurion costume as well

Kompany wins Players' Player Of The Year. Good choice imo, are they normally this bold? I kind of expect them to be the summer version of SPOTY, which might be unfair - can't remember if it was them gave it to li'l Scotty Parker last year.

Pardew takes the managers award, don't know who votes for that.

what's the difference between this and the PFA award?

I read that Emery went to Spartak Moscow but now it looks like that's not official yet. He's fun to watch on the touchline.

I thought they were the same thing xp. Not ideal, having so many slap-up meals in the run-up to The Showdown. Cunning by your lads to avoid being in contention.

It seems the award you're referring to is the "Barclays Player of the Season". The players gave it to RVP

I'm on a nightmare run today

Looks like the players' last out there choice was Sheringham in 2001

Five posts today xp - I've endorsed Sparky and the Wolves players have been dissing Solbakken. Even the new Liverpool badge is getting slated.
