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

Jelavic is really kind of great, isn't he? When he saw there it wasn't going to fall for his left and he changed feet, that was brilliant.

Moyes: "can't celebrate finishing 7th ... only 1st"

klata going to love shearers views on europa league

oh god this euro2k12 trailer

fucking shearer

"with expectation lower than ever maybe we can win it".

fuck off.

I didn't mind it !

Steady Mike agrees with Shearer btw

"With expectations lower than ever, maybe we'll win it."

"Your guess is as good as ours!"

You get the feeling they could be selling this harder.

big emerson boyce

wow

Emmerson Boyce does his equivalent of a Papiss Cisse!

so are wigan going to win the league next year?

martinez turning emerson boyce into maicon

Oh, Terry Connor.

enjoyed that one last zing at Steve Kean's expense re: his stand-in keeper

martinez gonna be villa manager imo

wot, mcleish to chelsea?

Wigan won't win the Premiership 2012/13

(well pleased for Wigan and Martinez but if they send us down next season I will never forgive them)

xp - If Martinez didn't want to be Villa manager last summer, why on Earth would he want to be now?

Swansea vs Liverpool

cuz expectations are so much lower at villa now

stewart downing goals 0 assists 0

nice scuffle between carroll and williams.

That afters with Carroll and Williams was quite hilarious.

wao, carroll's perfectly-executed overhead kick.

the package at villa likely to be much improved i'd say, along with lower expectations, and i think wigan won't get any better than scraped miracle survival, there's nowhere to take them from here.

maybe somewhere else, tbf, but lfc isn't going to happen and i can't right now think what other jobs btwn are gonna come up

why has Carroll not been dismissed?

andy carroll will be immense next season

kuddly kenny equalling sounesses marquee eighth place finish in 92

Tales filtering through of numerous City fans who left the ground, some in tears, before the injury time turnaround. I seem to remember reading about a Liverpool fan who left in disgust at half-time when they were 3-0 down against Milan. And George Best missed injury time in 1999 in Barcelona. It must feel weird to be one of these people - the moment of incomparable joy that will never be matched, that everyone will take about forever, and your own recollection of it is one of miserable ignorance.

deems surely u jest

there's always someone worse off than you

aww norwich and swansea. they're nice teams aren't they.

RIGHT - COMPLAINING ABOUT GOAL OF THE SEASON TIME!

coruscating liverpool analysis from hansen there

Crouch had better England record than Grant Holt, so he will always be ahead of him. Thanks for that Alan.

I'm watching recorded MOTD about 25 minutes behind reality. Was there some kind of 'comedy' hairstyle thing going on at Spurs, or just coincidental decisions?

It's Ben Arfa's though, isn't it?

Eh, Ben Arfa's was against Bolton, though, which is the equivalent of scoring that goal on 2-star level on Pro Evo.

grotty bombastic montage

"that's not dribbling, that's running" - Capote on Ben Arfa

It reminds me more than anything of Maradona's second in THAT match so I take your point.

Good GotS though, refreshing lack of usual suspects/standard order wellyings.

kudos mencap

was thinking more of a Sunday league versh of that one Weah goal

what now?

gorgeously bathetic appearance of venkychicken beneath martial strings

i never jest in the football threads

by Shearer's logic you would never pick an uncapped player if you could pick a capped one

mind you, I've decided that I would take Carroll

though I think this sounds daft, and he's a lumbering oaf, and I didn't like his handbags session today.

"that's not dribbling, that's running" - Capote on Ben Arfa

One for post of the season, that.
