On the Ball (new Football Focus)

[snorky]

pfft

Newcastle were not good enough to stay up.Truly shiocking.No one is "toon" big to go down. There are good points though, that parasite cod scouse, horse enthusiast and all round turd Owen will be off to peddle his injuries elsewhere.The rest of the wasters can escape to wherever they really wanted to go in the first place before bring sold the dream of easy money by cheeky impish Blue peter garden vandal & chelsea apologist shitbag Dennis Wise.

Plastic scousers will be galvanised into an orgy of mutual backslappery as they recall the Owen golded years. Red shite indeed.

No Doubt the Guardian Sports team will be smirking & touching themsleves inappropriatley as they slave over a hot Mac in their Islington homes , working on the rather unoriginal premise of " where did is all go wrong? " for tomorrows bog role editon leader.reactionary smug fuckpigs

New season/ new start.

You could get a job working for the Sunday Sport snorky, for a minute there I couldn't work out if I was reading an Oxford/Cambridge exponents narrative.

Back of the net!

Any excuse to knock Liverpool, eh Snorky? I suppose it's our fault you were relegated.

we could have done with those points, so yes, if you like

Owen will probably end up at a promoted club in tin prem. However, I am a plastic scouser, and I do think he used to be rather good.

[Sharon_H]

Owen will probably retire and stick with his horse racing, and yep he was very, very good!

Went to the Arsenal yesterday and Stoke were the wosrt team I've watched all season, no craft, no guile, no skill. Delap had one throw all day and without that they are shit. I sincerely hope with all of my being they are relegated next season and West Brom and Toon come back up, and least they try and play the game the way it should be played.

Stoke 2009= Arsenal 1978-1997

[matthew123]

I don't see Stoke winning any trophies.. although they're worth a shot as our Eurovision contestant with their rendition of delilah

[????]

Bad luck Sheffield United (tries to keep a straight face), two very dodgy penalty decisions to moan about, make excuses from and deflect from your general crapness, sue the referee for even more money you don't deserve northern monkeys.....well done to the claret & blue northern monkeys however......this weekend - Millwall, Newcastle and now Sheffield United ...THANK YOU GOD

[SimonM]

Charming....

And you forgot the most unjust red card.....I had a better view of that "offence" than the referee - who totally justified Blackwell's pre-match criticisms of his selection - and it was no sending-off offence.

Anyway well done Burnley....it was a fine goal.

[????]

....and it's really charming to spend over 2 years continually dragging a decent football teams' name through the sewer on a technichality....sorry Simon, I absolutely detest your team and am genuien;y laughing over you stuck in the Championshp again. Sue Burnley.

Not sure who you support or how long you've been watching football but you are clearly deluded. During the period you've quoted we won a number of trophies, including a title or two something Stoke can only dream of. I grant you we were poor from 1980 to 85 and from 86 to 88 but we never plumbed the depths that Stoke have managed this season. Piss poor team, piss poor attitude to the beautiful game, typical of the "English" approach to the game, all physicality, aggression and fcuk all else. All fart and no poo as my eldest son would say. Such a stone age approach to the game has no place in the 21st century.

[SimonM]

My "charming" comment was a reaction to your "northern monkeys" phrase, which I thought pretty offensive. I'm not going to get drawn into yet another online spitting match about all the other stuff.

Now that we have established bad blood doesn't just exist between Liverpool and Man U - is there anyone supporting Man U tomorrow (apart from Mick Mac, Keef, Red Devil and Sandperson) ??

[david_carnell]

SimonM - my genuine condolences. And yet another season goes by without a Blades vs The Mighty Whites game. One day my friend....

Best of luck for next season.

Me. I always support English Teams in Europe.

[Keef]

As I said earlier Matthew, I am not so sure I can support them after seeing just how much glee they took, not in their own success, but in beating Liverpool.

I'll not be cheering Barca as such, but certainly wouldn't be saddened if Man U got beat.

I think United will win it though, just seems to be their season...

[Keef]

But to show good sportsmanship,

Good luck Sandperson & red-devil.

*offers hand, and resists urge to pull away at last second, put thumb on nose, and blow raspberry whilst wiggling fingers*

[Ladygooner]

Barca to win with Henry goal - to take away his and my heartbreak in Paris 3 years ago!

[Sandperson]

The glee was at winning the league, i.e beating everyone, not only Liverpool (although that was sweet, of course, as I am sure that it would be the other way round) so stop being so self obsessed. Just thought I'd clear that up for you, now I'm back off to a thread about cats or something.

Actually, before I go, I'm glad that Newcastle went down.

[Mick Mac]

Radio 5 Live - Some pundit (can't identify him yet) has just said that a lot of English fans would like to see Thierry Henry win a Champions League medal. [True]

He then said because TH is the best player ever to have played in the Champions League [bollocks]

I have heard the pundits name mentioned - Sean Custis???/ from the Sun???

I expect only Arsenal fans could have the blind loyalty to think Tierry Henry is the best player ever to have played in the Champions League - surely he has been a bit part player in the competition.

Carlo Ancelotti spills the beans on his Chelsea talks with Abromovich from 12 months ago in his new autobiography.. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/chelsea/article6367805.ece

Ancelotti on Chelsea talks: ?The manager of Milan is on a secret mission, I, like 007, on my own. Sat behind a driver with the face of a killer."

Abromovich: ?Dear Ancelotti, I want to win everything. Everything.?

Ancelotti on Mourinho: ?We looked up at the television and there was his Mourinhoness, comparing himself to Jesus. I thought, ?Forgive him his sins, he knows not what he is talking about.? ?

[SimonM]

>>Best of luck for next season<<

Same to you - but how do you feel about Beckford going already??

Blackwell is already talking about throwing in the towel, which I think would be a pity. We had a lot of bad luck with injuries - especially to strikers - and his record since Robson got booted is pretty formidable. I am not at all sure who McCabe would settle for...
