Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

The worst bit is where you get excited and think maybe things might be different this time, before settling in to the same old routine

I just can't say no to poor frail Diaby, barely able to stand on his weak legs and begging for forgiveness

IK otm

Feels a bit cheap at this point but rooting for QPR so hard today.

we're all just assuming that Wigan'll win from here on in, I'm barely even considering them as candidates - but they're in the bottom three and they're not actually very good

Since this is the last time anyone will pay attention to this game this afternoon... Liverpool completely on top, passing all around West Ham - but every time the ball gets beyond the eighteen-yard line, or to Suarez at all, the iron boots come on and it gets shinned out or shanked into useless space. A 0-1 defeat, and safety for West Ham, awaits.

Nightmare cross, nightmare finish

Spurs 1-0 up within a minute.

could vertonghen become our next 40m lw sensation

One man team.

Suspect

cunts

that replay will show that linesman to be a lying cheating cunt

Been coming.

Joeks defending on show, i kinda dunno what avb wants this team to play like since xmas

We get the ball and theres six static options to pass to.

Walker needs a fuckin kickin

But srsly we've still not seen that adebayor-through-in-forty-yards never-offside call.

walker is a perennial source of unhappiness

Liverpool have had 80℅ of possession.

Fuck these cunts, im findin it hard to parse where we're goin with injuries and players sold but defence is stupidly fragile and attack is managing to be both static and muddled and avb is not earnin his corn this past while

refs a cunt too, not even in either side's favour

Very clear handball there, ok because it hit his body first according to setanta

Dempsey would be greatly improved by anonymity

kyle walker really does take the biscuit

ooh thuddtime

ah, the yomp

Ref is actually a total cunt

spurs have been so back on their heels and indecisive that this has been one long 50-50 tackle between ourselves

team of officials now actively favouring dirty timewasting everton

thuddddddd 80-yard diagonal ball

Thudd has been angelic since coming on, for dembele ffs avb out

The amount of catch practice howard's had today, i'd hate to face him next

Sunderland are beating Chelsea.

Parker is a huge problem at this stage, he slows everything down and kills dembele

kyle walker!

Adebayor, sigurdsson deserved that

Ffs dawson, caulker

Caulker immediately ignores jelavic again, its like markin isnt one of his jobs

How that game changed when thudd started passing it. Dembele kept on for dempsey might have one it, tho dawson and caulker did their best to lose it.

top four gone, avb yellow card obv

sunderloland
funny goal

qpr keeps giving

borderline yellow/red makes it even more tragicomic

is it really bobby's fault that he can kick lil jordi gomez in the face with the other foot on the ground

this is just going to be longest, saddest slow death of an hour

93rd min winner for newcastle is a nice touch, can't maintain the pretence of any relevance to us but still

love that we're booing gomez tbh

borderline yellow??? lol

he was 'making an honest attempt to win the ball' maybe

red probably the right call, definitely the funniest call

i'm not complaining but it was more just morbidly casual english violence than any great malicious intent tbfttl

hes nowhere near the ball!

yeah he wasn't trying to kick him but he caught him full on the face and a 100% red

idk it's hard not to resent the patronising assertion that this (not edifying but pretty mundane) sort of thing doesnt happen in football any more all of a sudden now everything's apparently an m&s microwave chicken tiki taka ready meal

which sort of thing

adel on finally at long last

this is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a stepover

Pfft, was a straight doner kebab of a challenge - they've always been around, you can still have one if you want, there's always a price to be paid afterwards.
