Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

The fuck outta here with that pessimism, if nothing else we can take confidence from how shit this Sunderland side are. Wins against Newcastlol and an Everton side who are actively trying not to qualify for Europe this year don't mean shit if you take this sort of pasting from Bentekkers and the Boy Scouts.

fullbacks bombing forward at 4-1 up

bullshit red

nah on the real this is some profoundly sexy stuff, love watching Benteke take the objectively wrong direction then just alternately flit and barge past the three defenders he's turned towards

harsh red given what the ref's let go earlier, he's been all over the place

Woof!

best day of my life

man if Wigan had won, Newcastle would be in the absolute shit right now

Carlos Cuellar unpunished handball scandal!

NOW HE'S A DICK

Judging by the rest of his performance he did it with the best of intentions though

NOOZADACK

Warms my heart to see Cuellar gifting the opposition goals and Gardner giving away needless free-kicks, rather than Baker and Bennett.

Ohhhh and here comes Flash Daz just to score a tap-in and make it a real party

Biscuits is a Villain? Did I know this, or is it just a glory thing?

pretty cruel substitution imo

Just watched all the goals back, the Vlaar one is a once in a lifetime one for him. Weimann goal pure class too.

Is Benteke secretly Michael Jordan? He jumps twice as high as anyone else.

Sgt biscuits, im sure, had a soft spot for gunners

Darren Bent is total gash, were Benteke not a wonderful goal-scoring golem this would be a problem. But tonight, there are no problems! Go on Darren, you skitter about miscontrolling it as much as you like son! You can't do any harm. All these people are here to see you!

HOOOOOOOOOOOO Gabby it's all too beautiful

Round the keeper!

Aghbonlahor 6-1

ah now there's a through-ball

let's not get too bogged down in who had a soft spot for wh

oh man hahahahah

Di Canio out, sicher, nein?

Agbonlahor coming back in has actually been a major factor in Villa's upswing in form

PDC's "I like my squad they are talented" line is gonna be under a bit of pressure here after he's eaten their bones

I only recently found out the lads at my old work had me down as a Villa fan 'cos I used to go & see them most, I'm celebrating with you tonight Sgt Biscuits

Wigan are fucked, no way they're making this up now

think this result suits Wigan - better to play Villa if they're safe

relegation to haunt the north-east like thatcher's ghost

Its not *entirely* impossible that Newcastle could be behind Villa by Monday evening

I told y'all. How are the run-ins? Do Wigan really have two or three wins in them?

Closet anyone but liverpool these days tbrr

Let me just post that again, it's like hen's teeth

On sat at 5pm villa were what, three points and eleven goals behind newcastle? Insane.

Really, really enjoyed this match.

Screenshot is from my new darling. My bro shelled out for this Pro HD Superduper We Broadcast Everything Around The World Live Football account and shared his password. I can watch it all on the ipad and watch back goals etc.

How can you Britishes watch all of the PL live? How much does it cost per month, with what broadcaster? (since I will probably end up living there p soon, this is vital info)

it's all set up for a hilarious repeat of the Chelsea 8-0 next week alright

man, even with Quinny as the linesman they couldn't get a result

You've been promising us that forever LBI, this is like Eden Hazard all over again.

I watch on my computer in heavily-pixelated lo-definition fwiw

How can you Britishes watch all of the PL live? How much does it cost per month, with what broadcaster?

I have sky and espn and it costs less than having to go to the pub every time United play

Lambo is cock-a-hoop

Lol IK <3 Wish it was as easy as enthusiasm and promises alone... :-/

@NBS: I ask because I always see youse asking for streams here, which gave me the impression that subscribing to a footy telly thing must be outrageous expensive. That or youse are just cheapskates? For comparison, the (lol) Dutch football channel (so you can watch everything live and cross-platform, as in on your iphone or ipad etc) costs about 25 quid per month

I hope Wigan do go down. I bear old lower league grudges against them and Whelan is a prick. Martinez is an ace manager though.

don't want to shell out to Murdoch, man

yo

(xp)I think Sky is something like that, I honestly can't remember. ESPN is maybe a tenner on top of that, but I've just been contacted to say my ESPN subscription is ending in July, so I guess they've lost the rights to Prem games for next season?

xxxp i keep thinking you're jason dodd

That is problematic, yes. Murdoch bought the Dutch footy right, too, last year

cheapskate, also I hardly watch any telly anyway and usually am trying to get some work done at the same time so deluxe package would be an extravagance

NBS, still, doesn't seem too bad though, three tenners per month? I'd hit that.

Norwich:
Aston Villa (H)
West Brom (H)
Man City (A)

Sunderland:
Stoke (H)
Southampton (H)
Tottenham (A)

Aston Villa:
Norwich (A)
Chelsea (H)
Wigan (A)

Newcastle:
West Ham (A)
QPR (A)
Arsenal (H)

Wigan:
West Brom (A)
Swansea (H)
Man City (FA Cup)
Arsenal (A)
Aston Villa (H)

it's a combination of pure sloth, convenience and cheapskatery with maybe a dash of righteous anticorporate angst fwiw

@IK, ohhhh so you mean you only get it when buying a deluxe package? Hmmm. That is prob different here, as you can just only buy the footy channel and don't have to pay by proxy for millions of sad porn channels etc. It's not attached to some 'deluxe' package deal I mean.
