Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

moyes being undersold itt imo, think he has a lot more to offer than champs league qualification on a shoestring. pretty good tactical brain and seems to handle his players well. minimum of fuss plus pathological bloodymindedness makes him a reasonable choice to survive the insane glare that will inevitably be trained on whoever takes over. for his sake i hope they go with someone else, you want to be the guy that takes over halfway thru the season after next, not the first guy.

moyes hasnt won a single away league game vs a top four team in 10 yrs

do you think that trend would continue if he was managing United?

How many home games do the top four lose not-against-each-other now anyway? A couple a year each, if that?

so that would be 80 games in a decade, none won by everton

probably more like 50 irl but still

Thorstvedt, Hughton, Van den Hauwe, Polston, Howells, Mabbutt, Walsh, Gascoigne, Nayim, Lineker, Sedgley

Last Tottenham XI to win at Stamford Bridge

The winning goal that day. It's like another world.

you want to be the guy that takes over halfway thru the season after next, not the first guy

Realness.

Also until this season Spurs hadn't won at Old Trafford since 1989. I don't think we'll win tonight.

Oh fuck Adebayor, seriously?

Fuck me!

Unbelievable!

Did not see that coming

nice touch.

that was a pretty languid finish

Come on, no one saw that coming.

was on the phone to my dad and he told me Adebayor had equalized, told him to check his glasses

FUCK IT

Excellent goal. Because it was Spurs you just assume it was shit.

Ah no, GNev's got their number.

I've seen this trotted out a few times, but it doesn't actually seem to be true.
For example:
Mon Dec 20 2010 Prem A Man City W 2-1 45,028 Cahill T Baines L

UK fitba culture is that different from other countries? Old geezers having worked in the bizz for decades and unable to let go of their power/influence is not a UK thing? Wouldn't happen there?

Ok.

id guess that is their own away victory vs even a good side, not that im gonna check their away record vs tottenham etc

there isnt a dof culture u putz

city werent a cl team then

So they've failed to beat a team that finished in the top 4 the previous season rather than failed to beat a team that finished in the top 4 that season?

Cheers Nakh...

so this is more or less without precedent since shankly or busby or whatever

nbs u are the worst fucking pedant cocksucker on ilf

this is what the crowd wanted to see

I'm just trying to work out what it is that he's supposed to have done / not done. I'm not singling you out - I've read the same 'fact' about a hundred times today all over the place. (xp)

it's a totally irrelevant detail regardless of how you want to draw it up. man u vs top 4 and everton vs top 4 couldn't be more different, particularly in what those games mean for the respective sides for their season.

Rooney to Chelsea? Presumably that would mean Torres would be on his way?

19:41 HANDBAGS - nakhchivan 0-0 NBS

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQeqZrxJ8ONkPbY3cIxvGtLS-fobSOi95_Lgtx1yrVT6RKRH-Ml It's all kicking off here on ILE, where nakhchivan has just planted his studs into NBS' chest while referee Matt DC was looking the other way. Feisty atmosphere, and it feels like this could boil over at any point.

What's pedantic about that? ffs

fuck spurs

ive not even seen anything, just in from footy

fuck the lot of ye too obv

wtf now cameron is on my tv fuck him too

how long have Sky been doing these swanky graphics during the game? Only noticed them last week

wait so is this on sky? cunts.

They look quite good, but it's so wobbly it's obviously four interns twiddling joysticks

theres not even an informal culture of gerontocracy in english fitba at least since roy evans carked it and the boot room legacy was effectively annulled

immense shout out to imago with the content provision on the sidelines btw

Wtf is parker doin playin, what were goals like who to blame etc

Wtf spurs wtf

Spiralli otm, nakh over the ball

idk if u cant see how a record that bad vs good sides is indicative of something im not going to help u

Hes consistent

Seems like our best effort in some time this, tho we're fucked on the counter
