Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

Ned that is; no reason to be anything other than envious of jim

Also iirc Ned once wdyll'ed with Robbie Savage, that's almost football

he made ref to spurs in my birthday thread iirc

Is Windsor Davies, the Windsor Davies?

Xxpost - just a Windsor Davies. Haven't you heard we come in six packs?

ah fuck nahh

hate that shit

lovely finish from fletcher

who is this ref he is a fucking cunt

if you don't want to be there son then fuck off

ref shows up 90 mins late this chico is an animal

Stranded in an apartment 2 mins walk from piazza San marco. Amazing views, spectacular thunderstorm kicking off on my balcony.l Right now just feeling bitter as fuck that I can't watch motd on the I player website outside the uk.

jesus laudrup wants chico's red rescinded! he should have been off an hour earlier you cheeky sod

wd if there was any way to help other than liveblog............ ;_;

Just how big is this balcony?

refs just aren't going to be giving penalties this year, i guess

Xpost - Big enough for several items of wicker furniture and a recliner. approximately the same size as my back garden. I'm aware this scale will mean little to you, but it means the world to me

I'm trying to think of a Venetian experience you could adequately sub in for Hansen and Lawro; not coming up with much I'm afraid

WD: I'm sure if you look at the Olympics thread/ask Ned you'll find the secret people were talking about as to how to watch the iplayer outside the country.

Alan Shearer: "Sorry for getting excited."

You did?

This guy just makes me want to kill myself.

amazing how fast he's settled into the EPL way of life

the only interest here is to see whether shearer uses the phrase AND HE DONE THAT ALL DAY in ref to wor andy

this makes west ham look blooming incredible, with ricardo vaz te as david silva

barcelona used to be the pinnacle of football but after watching this particular liverpool-trolling clip of allardyce best of, i guess messi might wanna be looking over his tiny shoulder

barca should try a season of punting it up to messi, see how well he can adapt to that.

Alan shearer's scattergun approach to the English language ("he's no reason why they don't" = "there's no reason why they shouldn't" etc etc) delights and infuriates me in roughly equal measure. Didn't I read somewhere that arry and mick the eagle were doing motd this season? I can't decide if this is better or worse than the two alans

Thanks for the tip, ahoy-hoy, looking into it

Big Sam's fucking face for the third goal! I want to write a play about his time in LIMERICK

Looking forward to shearer on carroll

lol at 'not actually long balls'

I have a stream! Have they played the spurs match yet? I saw that earlier, can't be arsed watching that shower again

Shearer on Carroll is like a farmer discussing an old machine no longer used today, in wistful tones

except 'he' instead of 'she'

sorry windsor all ahead of you. you missed a pretty entertaining swansea/sundlund and a meh everton/wba

rodwell looked better in the second half today

'Arry saying that vdv scored 'alf 'is goals from crouch knockdowns... in two seasons, one which crouch was frozen out and another when crouch wasn't there.

I suspect a season of him talking absolute bullshit and not being called on it.

tbf for the first season vdv was indeed thriving off crouch 'knockdowns' ie the ball bounced off him as he tried to score. more credit accrues to vdv reacting than anything else

Xpost Ah I'm sorry I missed the Swansea / s'land match. I've been pretty scathing about fletcher recently, but that's more to do with wanting M'oN's transfer business to crash and burn than it is to with fletcher himself. Wanted to see his debut goals. I'm on the city game now, where are youse lot?

ok well my annoyance was as much 'big men are amazing and my example is a player i couldnt who disappointed me twice and i tried to shill to anyone a year ago'

also the city game. you are live if dzeko just scored.

city game also, tho i'm not live myself

dzeko, see, nobody's idea of a 'small'

even fletcher's probly a little 'big', long too imo

is mancini not talking to the bbc or is it just not this weekend?

Ohhh Carlos, saving my fantasy football week there. City pulling some classic "playing shit - winning games" stuff here. As platty says, points on the board. Stuff of champions, shearer will say

wilkins said 'big dzeko' yesterday but more as an identifier (contra the other lil dudes) than as a true honorific, i think

shame cuz he was heading for bigness on last season's form

― diouf est le papa du foot galsen merde lè haters (nakhchivan), Wednesday, September 14, 2011 6:58 PM (11 months ago)

he's a good player but too slow basically

dont even recognise some of these new spurs players, and why are we wearing the dark strip at home?

lol i actually thought snodgrass was bale for that diving header

huddlestone more incompetent than malicious there
