Premier League 16/17

[birdonaball]

When I left my office (watching on NBCSN app thing on the worlds worse internet. I will never ever complain about SKY again when I get back home) I'd left Bournemouth 3-0 up. Got home and WTF has happened *shakes head* Nothing surprises me anymore in this league.

At least 2 points dropped by Arsenal and Liverpool this weekend-ish.....now we need to make sure we do our job and stuff them who shall not be mentioned

Beat Chelsea and we're third. Just win lads

Just almost had a full on row in bed with the Mrs about her sisters wedding/last NLD at the Lane. Fuck know's why I'm putting in the premier league thread or even telling you lot but I am doing anyway!!!! She said the wedding was 29th April in Thessaloniki, I said I'll be in North London watching spurs thrash the scum love and that is fookin that!!!! It didn't go down well at all as you can imagine but it turns out the wedding is the weekend before so I'll just have to find a way to sneak off and watch the away match against Leicester. I've missed enough football for the Greek family over the last couple of seasons and they just don't get what it means to me. They're already trying to plan my wedding (I haven't even fucking asked her yet) and I've said it's pre season or not at all, they say it's more expensive then I say tough titties!!!! Luckily she's told them that having a wedding with English folk during the football season means half the guest are in a pub elsewhere watching footy and they couldn't believe us English would leave a friends wedding to watch the match.... Too fucking right, I'd be in the pub with them!!!! I wonder how that would go down.... Better get righting my obituary just in case it pans out that way as someone's gotta something nice about me.

Like I have said many times, I like to enjoy every moment they are in pain and every moment we are not. So for 60 minutes of yesterday's game they were total shite, they could not cope with little Bournemouth and Wenger was going mental, watching that was very enjoyable, of course the pleasure would have lasted longer if they had been mulched, but a brief moment of intense pleasure can be very nice and it was!

I am so looking forward to tonight's game, I am not thinking about a title race, it is way too early for that, so much can happen and I think I prefer to just take one game at time. Win tonight and I will be massively chuffed, posting 'mind the gap' all over the place and looking forward to the next game, if the unthinkable happens and we lose I will be grumpy until tomorrow then I will be looking forward to our next game.

No game is a 'must win' because football doesn't end, there is no destination just a journey.

Puh admin errors
The FA statement read: ‘Manchester City have been charged in relation to The FA’s Rules on Anti-Doping. ‘It is alleged the club failed to ensure that their ‘Club Whereabouts’ information was accurate, contrary to Regulation 14(d). ‘City have until 19 January 2017 to respond to the charge.’

Any idea what the likely punishment is for this as I'm none the wiser. Suspend the whole team for 9 months like they did to Rio Ferdinand one suit me fine...

RUSSIAN INVOLVEMENT....

 

[boo]

Costa eats all the pies

Striker Diego Costa has been left out of the Chelsea squad to face Leicester on Saturday after a dispute with a coach over his fitness.

The Spain international has not trained for three days and has not travelled for the Premier League leaders' match with the champions (17:30 GMT).

 

[Yid]

And the cracks start to show.....

 

[Style And Glory]

Roman, the oil riggers & the like are about to get a taste of their own medicine.

What they have been doing to other clubs (tapping up players & enticing with big money) is about to happen to them. China has massive amounts of cash & they are going to splash it everywhere. And as Yid said "the cracks are starting to show". No one will be totally immune to is but some well positioned clubs will be more resistant to it. Those that have fostered a 'family-like' atmosphere as MP has will have a better chance at retaining players. The other clubs like Chelsea, Man City, United are simply groups of mercenaries.

Start the countdown to implosion.

It will be very entertaining to watch.

 

[boo]

say cheese...

Sacking manager Jose Mourinho and his staff in 2015 cost Chelsea £8.3m in compensation, figures released by the Premier League club show.

Mourinho, now in charge of Manchester United, was sacked in December 2015 after a poor start to the Blues' Premier League title defence.

The club eventually finished 10th, and the financial report for the 2015-16 campaign shows a £70.6m loss.

That includes £67m paid to Adidas to terminate a sponsorship deal early.

 

[skiathospurs]

Payet quits
Costa unsettled
Anything happens to Sanchez and I reckon this week is sponsored by Carslberg

A fine most likely.

 

[boo]

toffees vs the oil riggers in a minute if anyone wants to watch it [link]

We could do with Everton rattling the cage a little in this, right? I mean, it's not like they've just signed three new players and they are all gunning for the manager now is it? heh : P

Mind, banking anything on Everton isn't the best bet in the world but still, let's see what happens...

Up the toffs!

West Brom were our Bogey Team of late and we blasted them out the park, here's hoping Everton can to the exact opposite in that they live up to their bogey team status.

Up the toffs!

Lukaku just scored!

 

[boo]

[skiathospurs]

[Don Diaz]

Nice things happening at Goodison Park so far....but we all got excited about Bournemouth the other week so we better calm down I suppose

Pep is still learning in this league and doesn't appear yet to have much of a plan B....now where have I heard that before??

 

[skiathospurs]

No one jinx this just save it for an hour !!!

I think we're now pretty safe to say that the afternoon has started well....a 0-0 draw next up would be pleasant!!

yes its four lol

 

[skiathospurs]

First time we ever avg over 2pts a game at this stage,so yes Kane is better than aguero.

 

[boo]

well there you go then

 

[Ted the Yid]

Well, well, well I didn't realise watching other games could be enjoyable. I'm only watching it as I have something fluey. Glad we got a 12 point gap on Everton as they could put a decent run together. They have some good youngsters their.

I'm not sure whether you are looking for a large stirring spoon or not?!!! How does points per game equate to Aguero being worse than Kane?? I do like your style though lol

 

[J.spurs]

Holy shit. Tell you what though, I never know if it's a good and bad thing when we play teams after defeats like that. Wounded animal and all that.
