Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

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.

xp yeah exactly, but this isnt the agreed price we all know, this is like some BRUSSELS BUREAUCRATS levying a new doner tax

:D

mbia is a giant disintegrating clown of a man

yeah he's fun isnt he

poor stranded loic this half

the prisoner of alcaraz

misery is a wonderful muse for rtc imo

Wigan are like the cocky smart kid swaggering into an exam, claiming he only started studying last night. Really want them to fall on their faces this year.

oy that was me, in fact i bet that was p much all of us

Wigan just straight up getting a middling 2.2 and having to push trolleys round Sainsbury's for four years while they recover from the shattered confidence

Yeah I know. A bit of self-loathing is always apt though.

martinez alarm set for august every year, but he still wakes up in a panic at half february, fucked out his tree

it also grates a little that they beat Newcastle in the first place, they ought by rights to be more adrift but instead people are viewing their games in hand like this:

Nick via text: "People who reckon Wigan are going down this season. They have two games in hand. If they win them both, they'll be 13th."

Blackburn's parents pulled them out of school entirely for home tutoring a couple of years back; poor lambs currently shitting it about their resits.

there's an old gruff sub teacher sits alone in the corner of the staff room, every time blackburn's name comes up he interjects with an unwanted and chilling pronouncement that "it was the father or the uncle there, mark my words"

Tarbs definitely playing up the Infuriating Agent of the Trickster God stereotype so far today
