This I've heard before, and I don't agree by a country mile!! I remember the sublime goals he scored against Man U, back to goal with Irwin behind him, one touch, and volleys the ball into the net. Was that not a BIG game? The goal he scored against Chelsea at higbury after 1 minute etc etc etc etc etc, I could go on but the problem is I'd be wasting my breath. Or How about When Arsenal were losing against Liverpool at Highbury in the unbeaten season and he beat the whole of the defence and socred. Were none of these aforementioned big games??? If ther weren't it doesn't say a lot about the opposition. Sunshine player my Arse!!! There you go you've pissed me off, you wouldn't let it lie!!! Or how about when we were 2 nil down against Villa at Highbury (season 2001 - 2 I think it was) and he scores in the final seconds for us to win 3 - 2. Give me strength. I'm starting to resort to my old ranting ways which I don't like.


Try to balance your arguments before making such sweeping statements. "Sunshine Player" Indeed!!

Blackburn 1 Aston Villa 0

Chelsea 2 Hull 0

Everton 0 Bolton 1 ( Everton going to be knackered )

Man City 2 Middlesbrough 0

Portsmouth 1 Liverpool 0 ( Adams hangs on for another week )

Sunderland 0 v Stoke 0

West Brom 0 v Newcastle 0

Wigan 1 v Fulham 1


Tottenham 0 v Arsenal 2 ( Does anyone really like spurs )

West Ham 1 Man U 0 ( Just to make the title race more fun )

A Manchester City fan has admitted his embarrassment after having 'Kaka' tattooed on his chest before the Milan star snubbed the club last month.


Did I not mention that its all going wrong up north.


Atila sorry I am an Iron and I like to wind up the Spurs fans. It's childish but it makes me smile and always on a friday.


Happy poets day all.

I knew someone would not like it - I knew it was controversial - I did say he could be absolutley sublime (I had the MU goal in mind) - and really I used him as my link to Larsson. But you have to admit he went missing a few times when needed. I understand Arsenal fans' great loyalty to him, but I also was dissapointed to see he did not make it at Barcelona, where he could have really cemented his reputation.


Noone likes to see their hero's reputation tested, and I agree he did a lot for Arsenal.

Sorry? Did not make it at Barcelona?? He is till there. Do you watch Spanish football, are we talking about the same guy, have you seen the goals he has scored for them this season, or are you just yanking my chain?? I think it's the latter either that or you're a footballing philistine. Calm Down, Calm Down.

He has been scoring some beauties, as have his team who will be THE team to beat in the Champions League. I'm glad to see people make comments based on recent knowledge and robust research.

No mate. I was doing that for myself. We've been there before and we both know there's no need. Friendly banter is fine with me. Quids just likes to wind me up every Friday and I like to let him know that I fall for it every time. Makes him happy I suppose so he can go away and enjoy his weekend in the full knowledge that he's had his little dig at a Spurs fan, sorry a Spud. Little things please little minds.... oh did I just say that! Ahem! Deep breath, in and out, and again. Count to ten. Another deep breath. That's better.

I'm not a big fan of Craig Burley, he is always moaning and their studio pundits are clueless so much so Harry Redknapp has employed two of them to boost his ego..


I like to hear a bit of spirit, and that's why Sky are kings - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULad-iwMekI

    • James  may have initiated the boards but there would have been a group of people who would have taken in turn to keep boards up to date. When locks and boards were vandalised  it took some while (around 2 years) for the council to repair/replace and many of the group who maintained them, moved/died. I know James was not seen so much in ED due to  family  illness/bereavement  and I believe he also changed his job.
