So are chelsea gonna score a bogus goal every game?? It's bordering on being embarrasing, pffff.

INDEED!!!!

Well done alva!

[Krill]

Yup, Football it is.

Not Handmelon.

Krill, thanks for clearing up which sport it was. I was worried for a second that I'd strayed into the "ugly footballers" thread or something.

Now alva, I've just watched Match of the Day so I hope you have too. Can we talk about today's Premiership games yet or not?

[Imran Siddiqui]

You know, with Sava back, you are tempting fate .

Btw, as a fan of both American and Association Football (what we are talking about here) as well as someone who'll stop channel switching to watch Aussie football or rugby football, lets not make this about putting down another form of football. Thanks.

Now, what I was saying, and reds agreed with is that SWP could be starting and making what he's making. Sure, he could win a league championship and maybe a CL trophy with Chelsea, but as a backup. Should have stayed at Man City. They've not lost for quite a while.

I have.

I'll try and avoid this tread on match days (which seems to be everyday now but hey)

What I do hate though is the news giving you the scores!! Why???
If you really need to know the scores that quickly, go over to ceefax or the internet or whatever.

Don't show them just before you are going to broadcast and hour long dedicated program for it.

It's in case you were betting on the game

Seeing as you bothered to call this thread FOOTBALL, ill try to use spoilers from now on, at least on heavy fixture days.

[duke o' york]

They used to say: "If you don't want to know the results, look away now," and wouldn't then read them out.
Ah, the good old days.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Bastards now, every one of them .

Though I do like when Fox Soccer Channel shows Sky Sports Report (or whatever) and they go through the next day's papers by ACTUALLY having the paper on the desk and the camera over the anchor's shoulder. That was surreal.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Don't feed the troll, Cockney.

Speaking of trolls, has Mourniho said anything controversial yet this year?

[Urban Ranger]

Please discuss what the thread starter intended only. No spamming or flamebaiting posts. Anybody who does so will be restricted.

[Imran Siddiqui]

UR

It should be interesting to see how many ways we can get pounded by ManU and if Luque will do anything to help us score (likely not).

[Urban Ranger]

Imran are you a NUFC fan?
