Decided to start another thread with the new season upon us. Should be a very interesting one, especially with all the top three changing managers and no Fergie for the first time in like forever.

My predictions...

Top 6:

1. Chelsea
2. Man City
3. Man Utd
4. Spurs
5. Arsenal (this is on their current squad - if they buy some quality in the next 3 weeks then I would move them up)
6. Aston Villa... or maybe Liverpool.

Relegated:

18. Stoke
19. Hull City Tigers!
20. Crystal Palace (sorry Alffy but with a Chamakh/Phillips strike partnership, it doesn't look good)

F.A Cup - Man Utd

League Cup - Spurs

Champions League - Real Madrid

Best signing of the summer - Benteke penning a new deal at Villa!

Worst signing of the summer - All of Liverpool's buys! ;D

Let the fun begin...

ASTON VILLA RULE!!!

Well, until we play Chelsea away Wed.nite

BUT UNTIL THEN...WE RULE!  RIGHT, COOP?

Ok, a very uneducated guess at the top

1) man united
2) spurs - if they keep bale which does look unlikely
3) Chelsea
4) Liverpool - tall order I accept
5) man city

How long will arsenal keep its manager?

My predictions are...

1 Chelsea
2 Man United
3 Man City
4 Spurs
5 Liverpool
6 Arsenal

18 Palace
19 Hull
20 Cardiff

Been a good start to the season so far. United were more impressive than I expected, Villa absolutely delighted me by tonking the scum, and Spurs got a win I'm more than happy with.

Would be interested to see if any Americans will be getting into 'soccer' this year as I believe NBC are showing every single premier league game, which is way more than we get over here.

FANTASY FOOTBALL

So I've just set up a fantasy league on premierleague.com, all you have to do is go on the site and pick your team, the code to join the Simply Scripts Heroes league is 2046645-524696. And don't worry, I've made it so the scores only come into effect from the second week so you won't be behind from the first week. And remember it's just for pride, respect, honour and all other words of similar effect/meaning. Hope some of you can get involved.

Quoted from ArtyDoubleYou My predictions are... 1 Chelsea 2 Man United 3 Man City 4 Spurs 5 Liverpool 6 Arsenal

Yep, that's my top 6 as well.

1. Liverpool
Everyone else don't care.
Except Aston Villa who will go into liquidation for not paying their electric bills and Villa park will be turned into a sewage plant based on the fact it's full of shit already.

: D

Mark

Manchester City for the win. Ok, so that is a little biased since I am a City fan. Chelsea 2nd and United 3rd.

What the F#+K is this thread!!

Everyone thinks Palace will go down?  Are you all mad...oh wait no you're all right we probably will lol.  Still hoping for another 4-5 signings, hopefully a few defenders in there too.

I've been impressed with Villa in their two games; very unlucky against Chelsea.  Two tough away games down for them, so they just need to perform at home.

Liverpool, I'm not sure.  I still think they're squads a bit light.  Same goes for Arsenal.

Utd, City and Chelsea will be the ones to watch, and it pains me to say it but Spurs could well be the dark horse this season?

Quoted from stevie ASTON VILLA RULE!!! Well, until we play Chelsea away Wed.nite BUT UNTIL THEN...WE RULE!  RIGHT, COOP?

You’re right as always, Stevie! We don’t rule anymore…

But after watching the match against Chelsea, I have to admit to being very impressed with this young team so far – very unlucky against the blues but I’m not going to blame the referee – Weimann should have scored one of his chances.

I was impressed with Delph at the end of last season and that’s continued into this one after his first proper pre-season in years. I really think he’ll have a good season and hopefully if he can stay clear of injuries, a possibility for England.

The big game is this weekend where we play Marky Mark’s Liverpool – let’s hope for a win! :P

Yep, our youth policy is paying off. The only worry I have is the long season. But as long as we can win win a lot of games early and decide on which cups to go for, if valid, then the boys are looking good.

Quoted from stevie Yep, our youth policy is paying off.

Interesting little anecdote (well, it might not actually be that interesting, ha), my sport psychology university lecturer did a lot of work with the Villa youth team when he used to teach at a university based near there. He worked with them to help develop recognition/ memory for different plays, as well as improving their reaction times.

Nice, Tobester! Actually, by youth policy I meant sort of Lambert buying cheap young players from around Europe, as opposed to splashing out a big name. It's risky but can pay huge dividends in the future. I'm happy with it.

Okay, a Yank here who enjoys international futebol--but definitely no afficionado of your leagues, though I wish I had the time to watch more of your leagues (and wish more were actually shown here, but that's another story).

Just want to know, how is the Boston Red Sox owner John Henry perceived over there as Liverpool FC's owner? He's not hated nor outwardly beloved here, though he is rather well liked for bringing us our first championship(s) in baseball in 86 years. But there are some here who complain that he's paying too much attention to Liverpool (in time and money) to concentrate on another baseball championship. Just curious if the same is said in Liverpool, that he's too distracted by Boston to run that franchise in UK. And do they like him or not?

@manowar

Irish eyes is probably better placed to answer than me, but as a non native l'pool supported I would 'guess' that it has to end in results.

They have such a rich history that becoming a mid rank table team is not going to impress the locals.

So far the Suarez saga has been interesting to watch. They have steadfastly refused to sell one of their best players even though he wants to go and a decent profit is on the table, so it does suggest intent.

Oh yeah Villa tomorrow.... ;D

@manowar

Liverpool fans also feel the same way about Henry and Warner, that they spend too much time with the RedSox. In our defence  He attended roughly 2 matches in the entire last season and that's our owner and director. That's unheard of in English football.
To give them their dues they have cleaned up our debt(as a result of the last 2 american owners) hicks and college. They have made quite a few mistakes in our transfer market last season but seemed to have made amends this season.

They also promised fans they had the money to deal with the big boys,  that's proven untrue... so with us Liverpool fans... only time will tell

Mark

Just sitting down to watch Villa v Liverpool and I'm wondering who will be singing on here later...Mark probably will either way as it's his birthday lol.  I'll sit on the fence and say a draw.

Two defeats for Palace but two close games and with a few more signings I think we'll get a few points on the board, probably not enough to stay up but I have to remain optimistic.

The wheels have fallen off already, lol.

Well done Mark!  At least Villa have a few easy games coming up!

Woohoo

We seem a lot more organized at the back... Toure was a great signing.
Villa looks strong Stevie... you'll have a good year, by that I mean not getting relegated :)

Mark

It was a rare treat I got to watch some of the game - second half.

Apparently we were better in the first half, bloodily well hope so, wasn't too impressed with what I saw. Reminded me of an England game, protecting a lead, sitting back, everyone sweating for the last 30mins

I thought villa looked quite assured but seem to lack a final punch.

A fair assessment I think. Liverpool were very good in the opening 30 minutes while Villa were sluggish and looked like a team that had already played two tough away games.

But I think Villa turned it around after that and looked like the most likely to score but just couldn’t break down a stubborn Liverpool defence.

Liverpool did nothing in the second half and they will not be able to play this way against the big boys. They need to learn to kill teams off, a problem they’ve had for a few years. Stoke nearly claimed a point last week after Liverpool dominated and to be honest, I think Villa deserved a share of the points at the end of this match but I would say that I guess. ;D

Look forward to see how this Liverpool side go against Man Utd this weekend.

;D;D;D

Where's Andrew? ;D;D;D

3 for 3 top of the league  and we still have the biter to come back

A happy Irishman

Mark

V good result. Anyone know how we played?

I would obviously take a 1:0 but so far we have had to hang on each time - better that than nothing of course.

Like all our matches so far Bill, a great first half and a defensive 2nd half.

We're the only team with a 100% record and nobody was expecting that, so I'll take 1-0 all year.
Utd won many a league on 1-0

And 3 more signings today, the squad looks stronger, also skrtyl might have just redeemed himself

Mark

It's good to see Liverpool top of the table.  A decent display today, although I did think Utd were quite poor.

Also good to see Palace get their first win and played really well too.

Well done guys.

Quoted from irish eyes ;D;D;D Where's Andrew? ;D;D;D 3 for 3 top of the league  and we still have the biter to come back A happy Irishman Mark

Congrats!

I moaned when we gave him the job and I will moan until he hopefully proves me wrong... but David Moyes was a bargain basement manager option for a world class club. Frustrated to say the least!

Thanks Andrew

Sorry I had to share it



When I see you guys in for Fellini and Arsenal in for Ozil, it's kinda sad....Ozil would have a been a great player for you. Fellini just a big bully in the middle.

Mark

I heard Utd wanted Sami Khedira but Madrid didn't want to let him go as they had already allowed Ozil to leave for Arsenal.  

Quoted from irish eyes Thanks Andrew Sorry I had to share it When I see you guys in for Fellini and Arsenal in for Ozil, it's kinda sad....Ozil would have a been a great player for you. Fellini just a big bully in the middle. Mark

It is looking that way!! Transfer policy was beyond bad. Scattergun and made United look anything but one of the biggest clubs in the world. I can't imagine Fergie would've been impressed by either the amateurish work of either Woodward or Moyes.

The most ridiculous thing about Moyes chasing of Fabregas was how he was all high and mighty saying, 'Oh, I don't talk about players from other clubs', and then in the next press conference waxes lyrical about Fabregas and how he'll "have some news for you in the next day or two". It was pathetic, really. Fair enough, he's got big shoes to fill, but Guardiola or Mourinho would've never made the silly mistakes he's made so far. And that is the calibre of manager Manchester United should be employing.

Prem is back... oh yeah

We don't play til Monday... any predictions for this weekend?

Mark

God, it feels like weeks since Villa played.

Actually it is!  Anyhow it will be good to hopefully check the scores in the middle of the night and see we've beaten Newcastle

Good performance from Palace today despite being beaten at Old Trafford.  Harsh penalty as it was outside box.  Ashley Young is an awful professional, can't stop diving and it's shameful.

The wheels have fallen off the Villa bus already. Maybe not time to worry but we need to start winning of for the confidence.  And the points, lol.


Luckily I have the Niners to watch.  Smash them Seahags tomorrow, guys

Quoted from Stevie The wheels have fallen off the Villa bus already.

I found your bus!

Mark

This is my bus, Mark.  And I've actually been on it, lol!

Rather enjoyed that Chelsea result. Comes form sitting next to a Chelsea supported for 15 years!

Not sure how Chelsea lost at Goodison yesterday.  Also not sure why Eto'o came in and Lukaku got loaned out?  Eto'o looked past it yesterday.

Bye bye Ollie, it's been real.

Please no to Tony Pulis but I've a sneaky suspicion he's already sat in the dug out.

The Wilshere team goal was great, and that Mutch effort for Fulham was a cracker too.

Anyone enter into the Sun Dream Team??

Quoted from alffy Bye bye Ollie, it's been real.

Gotta admire his honesty, he does looked worn out.

I don't think anybody can keep them up, even if Palace managed to convince Fergie out of retirement - they're doomed all the way.

Quoted from Coop I don't think anybody can keep them up, even if VILLA managed to convince Fergie out of retirement - they're doomed all the way.

:D

Mark

Quoted from CoopBazinga Gotta admire his honesty, he does looked worn out. I don't think anybody can keep them up, even if Palace managed to convince Fergie out of retirement - they're doomed all the way.

They were doomed as soon as they lost Zaha.

You mean Zaha who can't even make into a shite  man u team

:)
Mark

Quoted from irish eyes You mean Zaha who can't even make into a shite  man u team :) Mark

He must be wondering what's happened.  Fergie buys him, leaves, Moyes comes in and he doesn't get a sniff...or maybe its because he 'sniffed' around Moyes' daughter? lol
To be honest I'm not sure why he isn't getting a chance, he is awesome and I'd go as to say better than Januzai or however you spell it?lol

SAS.  Unstoppable :)

The Villa form has been disappointing in recent games. Hopefully we can beat the Hammers tonight and fire up again!

Hopefully Palace can get a point but then again hopefully I can win the lottery tonight.  There's probably more chance of the latter.

Been a while since we've got involved on this... I'm flying high on the Super 6 and Fantasy Football (top 15k :) ) so am full of confidence in taking Lawrenson DOWN: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24841322

Big weekend for Utd and Arsenal. You almost feel that Arsenal will set down the biggest marker of the season and show their true credentials this weekend if they beat Utd. I know Man U hasn’t been at their best but they are the champions so it will be a big result if Arsenal get the win – United haven’t been great at home this season.

As for Villa – who cares!? We play at home so I expect us to lose or put in a scrappy performance – we’re are a counter-attacking team and more suited to away games. I expect a draw against Cardiff.

Super Sunday; 3 games so I will be getting nothing done!

Hey Andrew, missed your post but think we should try and get the predictions going again.

4-0 AND COUNTING

My predictions from today's games have been a little dubious! but we should defo get them going again, alf.

Good result for Liverpool - wonder if that'll be it for Jol.

Great result for Palace...we got a point!!!  Next 4 games are probably our easiest so far, if you don't count Fulham and Sunderland (who we beat).

Liverpool look good this season and Chelsea were very lucky, it was never a pen.

Utd really need to beat Arsenal tomorrow too.

Predictions for tomorrow:
Spurs v Newcastle 2-0
Sunderland v Man City 1-2
Man Utd v Arsenal 2-2
Swansea v Stoke 3-0

Villa finally score a goal after 4 games. Two goals!

Good job by the Palace alffy.

Predictions for the weekends games:

Everton v Liverpool 1-2
Arsenal v Southampton 2-2
Fulham v Swansea 1-1
Hull v Palace 0-1 (lol)
Newcastle v Norwich 3-0
Stoke v Sunderland 0-0
West Ham v Chelsea 1-4

Man City v Spurs 2-0
Cardiff v Man Utd 1-3

West Brom v Villa 2-2

Quoted from alffy Predictions for the weekends games: Everton v Liverpool 1-2 Arsenal v Southampton 2-2 Fulham v Swansea 1-1 Hull v Palace 0-1 (lol) Newcastle v Norwich 3-0 Stoke v Sunderland 0-0 West Ham v Chelsea 1-4 Man City v Spurs 2-0 Cardiff v Man Utd 1-3 West Brom v Villa 2-2

I thought you were playing the PS3, alffy, lol

Palace win 1-0, think I'll be making more predictions next week!

Quoted from [Alffy Palace win 1-0, think I'll be making more predictions next week!

On a roll Anthony, champions league awaits!

Wow, poor Tottenham!  ::) ::) ::)

Quoted from stevie The Villa form has been disappointing

1. Chelsea
2. Man City
3. Man Utd
4. Spurs
5. Arsenal (this is on their current squad - if they buy some quality in the next 3 weeks then I would move them up)
6. Aston Villa...

Guess who? (Coop's excluded :) )

Mid-season re-evaluation anyone?

SIMON!!!!!!!!

Don't make me come to your house Buddy !!! :D:D

Leaving out the mighty reds on current form... it hurts :(

The league is ours... nobody can stop Suarez and co

Mark

Lol :) - no that was Coop's prediction not mine - I grew up in N.Wales, so I'm kinda fond of the Reds

1. Man City
2. Chelsea
3. Arsenal
4. Liverpool
5. Man Utd

Fantastic season so far, so many upsets (thus these predictions are just about meaningless), it just gets better and better for a neutral like me.

The January transfer window could change everything.

Quoted from Simon Lol  - no that was Coop's prediction not mine - I grew up in N.Wales, so I'm kinda fond of the Reds

Yeah that makes more sense, Coop being a Villa fan really underlines his knowledge of football :D

Mark

Suarez signs new deal at Liverpool, so he'll be off in January then.

Malky Mackay will be sacked on Sunday or Monday for being a good manager by an idiotic owner.  They're called the Bluebirds but now play in red with a dragon on the crest.

Hull City will be the Hull Tigers by the end of the season because their owner is a numpty and has no respect for the supporters or a club that has been around long before him and will be around long after him.

Got to love the Premier League. lol

Christ, we need to keep Suarez .

Gerrard on the other hand is now open for debate. I think he needs to stay around for a while, me thinks.

Villa's surging run towards Europe starts tonight.

We have 3 easy games coming up - Stoke, Palace and Swansea, the last two at home.

Yeah baby.... ;D  ;D ;D

Alright I hold my hands up Stevie and Coop, you deserved to beat us... but you didn't ;D

Great season so far... tight at the top, tight at the bottom and more important... loving the UTD downfall. ;D;D

Mark

Lol, the Villa in a resurge.  About fucking time too

Villa played really well at Anfield and should have won really.

I see the blue plastics stole another player from us.

Quoted from irish eyes Alright I hold my hands up Stevie and Coop, you deserved to beat us... but you didn't ;D

Cheats! >:(

After the Chelsea thrashing, I said we needed a Cantona-esque signing - we only went and got one.

Looking forward to knocking Liverpool out of the top 4.

Quoted from Moyes After the Chelsea thrashing, I said we needed a Cantona-esque signing - we only went and got one. Looking forward to knocking Liverpool out of the top 4.

At least when you had Cantona, you also had a midfield and a defense ;D

Mark

Quoted from irish eyes At least when you had Cantona, you also had a midfield and a defense ;D Mark

;)

Maybe there are no gunners here,

go Arsenal

Quoted from PrussianMosby Maybe there are no gunners here, go Arsenal

You mean the same gunner that lost 2-0 against a vastly superior Bayner Munich? Same gunners that wasted a penalty kick? Yeah - go Arsenal -- downhillhill and into reverse with you well-spent £40mill :)

Outnumbered it was hard. I couldn't believe it, that they raised the pace in a free kick and earned a counterattack right before the 0-2. They had to play a slowly 0-1. That should have been their best possible result...
I'm sorry for you

Not outnumbered...
There's quite a selection as far as I know :

Myself and Bill Sarre... Liverpool
Andrew                 ... Man U Scum :D
Alffy                     ... Crystal Palace
Roy                      ...  Spurs

and worst of all  COOP and STEVIE... ASTON VILLA ;D;D  that's right Aston Villa ;D... makes me laugh

Simon, I haven't figured out... are you neutral? did I miss anyone?

So Arsenal eh? time of the year for your season to collapse :D and yes you luckily knocked us out :P

Mark

I'm not really neutral, it's just that I live in Luton, and I believe in 'supporting' your home town, just not an awful lot to get excited about that's all... but look on the bright side, we might get out of the 'thrilling' conference 'Premier' and back to the heady days of proper league football!!! maybe.

Hey, I'm not an Arsenal support,
not yet ;-)

I just love Munich and hoped for the gunners to conquer them in the most spectacular way. Without the red card your chances would have been real good, in my eyes. And Arsenal doesn't deserve to be defeated in that way. They were good until that. And I hope for their comeback at the return.

From the English teams, I guess, I sympathize most with the gunners, yes.  I have no connection to the other teams and I like the way Arsenal plays.

I've been there with my home team from Germany, Borussia Dortmund. Maybe ten years ago. We lost 0-2 if I remind right.

The old stadium was just awesome. I remember when a friend and I went through that small estate, and those narrow streets. I just thought: where the hell are we? Our match couldn't be here.
Then we walked between some buildings, entered through a small steel gate and were standing in the Highbury. We could see the grass flying when our goalie Lehmann, who changed to Arsenal later, shot the ball out of the box.

Today's stadiums are lying on huge concrete deserts. I watch out how much the ticket was, if I'll find it.

Ok. Too much off topic. The championship must been amazing for you this year.

Another offtopic. Dortmund got an old connection to Liverpool. Maybe coming from 1960's. We even sing You'll never walk along before our games. Unfortunately we don't get Liverpool for a long time.

This is my club.

Liverpool, me.

Fan, anyway.

I suppose I'm the OOT ( Out Of Towner) as I live miles away from the club but it's a love that will never die.
Short story told long:  I went on a family holiday, Walten On The Naze, I think, went to a shop/store. Really liked a red and yellow pen with Liverpool FC on it. My Mum or Dad brought it for me, so I supported them, no idea about football at the time. Didn't care for it at all.

Half term finished. Went back to school. Everyone was asking about footy. I had no clue, just said Liverpool. They said "Wow, they are the best team in the world!" or something. I do remember, my best mate at primary was a Man Utd fan. He actually looks like Ferguson, now I think about it.

So one summer day, I'm at home, watching the box. I have a mass craving for football. I have no idea where this came from. It was just " I NEED FOOTBALL". I'd always thought it boring, some crap my Dad would stay tuned to the TV to when he got the football results in to check his pools coupon. WHICH MEANT EVERYONE HAD TO BE QUIET.  No Sky Sports here, this was a dramatic run down of scorelines which had my Dad glued to this ancient box of a television. Remember when channel four just emerged? No such things as remotes! You had to push in the button on the damn TV!

We had that fricking thing for ages. Somehow got a VHS player connected to it. A monster of a TV set.

I dug a game of footy that ended 0-0. Just loved it. Craved it.
Watched Liverpool on TV for the first time. So excited. No idea what the hell it was, what competition, nothing. I didn't even know what the competitions were! Liverpool! On TV? I must see this!

So we were beating Kussisi Lahti of Finland 2-1 at half time in a UEFA Cup tie. My Dad came home from work, said the score was "Dodgy" or words to those extent. I didnt get it. "We're winning".  "Not really." "What?"
Explaining the aggregate away goals rule to the inexperienced can be a little more than difficult I guess.  I was gonna make a cheap sexist joke there but...

Get to the point!

Liverpool won 6-1, I fell in love with the club through books, VHS' and eventually going up to the place. I have cried when we lost, sad though that is, and cried in joy when we have won. It's just a feeling you have, I have no idea why it IS, it just IS.

My first game at Anfield was paid by my late grandmother, so me and my Dad could afford to go to Liverpool for the first time. We won 4-1. Ticket said obstructed view but it was a great view! Ian Rush scored a record breaking goal in the last minite,

We went loads of times after that - hooked! - although Liverpool were shite compared to their previous, it was still amazing to go and see them. My Dad, A Luton fan, would always take me there if he could afford it.

We stood in the Kop in the 0-2 against Newcastle, which was gutting, but the pressure was on as the stand was to be demolished after the next game. It's horrible to lose but I suppose the consolation is at least I got to stand there and shout my support until I couldn't speak no more.

So yeah, sorry for warbling on, bit tipsy, and all that but I think I have cursed Liverpool. Ever since I supported them, they have shot from 2nd to lower!

Although we have had some amazing times. But the league is what counts!

Quoted from Simon I'm not really neutral, it's just that I live in Luton, and I believe in 'supporting' your home town

The mighty Luton, I remember the old astro pitch you guys had... horrible ;D
due to N Ireland politics I never had a home team growing up until 5 years after I supported Liverpool.
Nearly every football fan in Ireland in either Liverpool or Utd... or Celtic and Rangers
My family was huge Liverpool fans since the 60's so I couldn't avoid it.

Quoted from PrussianMosby Another offtopic. Dortmund got an old connection to Liverpool. Maybe coming from 1960's. We even sing You'll never walk along before our games. Unfortunately we don't get Liverpool for a long time.

I love German football, Bayern are unstoppable right now. Dortmund ran them a good match in the final last year, you also have a great team... although Bayern bought all your best players.

I also like to see Bayern Leverkusen do well due to Sami Hyypia(former Liverpool great).

Quoted from Scoob Liverpool won 6-1, I fell in love with the club through books, VHS' and eventually going up to the place. I have cried when we lost, sad though that is, and cried in joy when we have won. It's just a feeling you have, I have no idea why it IS, it just IS

It's called "passion"... being there and still am. Great story Scoob, loving the UTD downfall right now :D

Mark

Watched out for the Arsenal Championsleague tickets:

date: 17.Sept.2002
South stand clock end block 18
Price: 26,50 £

My tickets are bleaching out.

Luton 5-0 this week, 7-0 last week. What's going on??? :)

Liverpool V City.
About to shit my pants.

Still can't count Chelski out, ridiculous people are ruliing them out, I don't get that.

I think City and Chelski will win at anfield, and we will end up third. A great season for us.

Yeah, big game scoob.

Fingers crossed for the SAS

I wonder if Mark is watching? Beats the fairy castle at disney

Ohh I watched Bill

10 Valium later ;D

Brilliant match and even better that we won :)

Mark

Quoted from irish eyes Ohh I watched Bill 10 Valium later ;D Brilliant match and even better that we won :) Mark

Anyitime Man Shitty loses is good

I don't watch football on a Sunday 'coz it's an unholy thing to do on the Sabbath ... but it's almost midnight, so I checked the result-- 3-2! Wow. But then a lot of people were saying that Liverpool were more than capable than hurting Man C. My Mum's a Man C supporter, but she never watches or takes any interest, so she's not bothered.

It's all on mistakes now - whoever trips up first... But really, I'd kinda love to see Liverpool win again after so long - and what a job BR's done???

Oh yeah, and Luton screwed up losing 3-2, so we're still not promoted.

Yeah Simon

Although Mourinho keeps playing it off as fake league because his team are 2nd... they know if they win their matches they win the league.

It's pretty crazy being a pool fan, we were more than happy for champions league... but league leaders with 4 to go :D

Mark

That was amazing.
No voice left. TV must want to shout back at me for all the abuse I gave it.
Incredible day, hate drinking in the early 'noon but this was a day... (96)

We ( Liverpool) will fuck this up. No doubt.
Torres (90) Chelski win 2-1. That would just be plain mean. Let us win this damn thing just once!

And my dad is a massive Luton fan, season ticket holder. Shame they lost to Braintree, was it? All they need is a fricking point!

Chelsea , dark horses, are gonna do us. Very scared. Never been in this position before, the chance to win the fricking league?

Childish excitement lol , cant help it!! lol PLEASE!!!!

As an Arsenal fan, I seriously hope that Liverpool win. They've been the best team by far this season and the football that they have been playing has been nothing short of spectacular.

Great to see so many English players as well on the regular starting line up.

2-1 to Sunderland vs Chelsea - looks like the title's Liverpool's :) after how many years??? Well done guys - and to really top the party -- Luton got promotion too! Wotta year...

Good day for us, Liverpool. Particualy as my colleague is a Chelsea fan  ;D

No slip up tomorrow lads

No slip up is right... nobody can deny us by saying we don't deserve it

I also have a chelsea fan friend lol

Mark

Quoted from Reef Dreamer No slip up tomorrow lads

Well, Norwich played valiantly, and Liverpool showed some cracks here and there, but Mark's got to be smiling - one hand on the trophy and the other... whatever :) Happy Easter Reds!

Ohhh new name and avatar Simon... cool

Happy we completed our objective of Champions league, but the title still not over... 3 matches and 3 teams can still win it.

Dam! My heart can't take this

Mark, i agree - getting a little tense now. Where are those 6-0 victories when you need them?

Having said that 11 wins in a row and defiantly in Europe next year is all good news.

Moyes out? That's what I'm hearing??? Rumour mill's going into hyper-drive...

From a liverpool perspective,  they should keep him. :D

Mark

Sadly Utd have parted ways with David Moyes. He should have been given more time to destroy the club from within.

Absolutely gutted :(

Mark

Ouch, Mark!

Your Scousers may have blown it

Not sure this weekend could have been any sweeter! The Moyes curse is lifted and normality reigns!

Quoted from Stevie Ouch, Mark! Your Scousers may have blown it

Yep sure looks that way, unless Everton do us favor :(

Quoted from Andrew Not sure this weekend could have been any sweeter! The Moyes curse is lifted and normality reigns!

And there's the Utd fans back outta the woodwork, it doesn't take much ;D

Mark

I don't normally comment on footy threads. But I did hear about some smartarses putting up a statue of Moyes outside Anfied.

Even I found that pretty funny.

R

Didn't Moyse win 4-0 in his first match?

Mourinho knows all about parking buses, so no surprises on him trying to spoil the party.

Goal difference now... but at least there's more for Man C to get wrong :)

Oh, and we've got Luton's promotion parade going on next week Sunday if anyone fancies making the trek  ;D -- see you there!

I have a feed on Facebook to a page called 'I'd be f$&@ed with out football'. Some classic memes and great goals and stuff.

Man U won't finish 8th. No, that's Newton Heath, right, Andrew?  nudge nudge...

Gutted, as a Liverpool fan, but I half-expected it. We're gonna have to deal with more of the same in europe. I can't stand Chelsea but they played a brilliant game, same as Liverpool did many times in trips to Juventus, Barcelona etc. in the past.
Still, great season, gutted not to get top spot and feel for Stevie G, but we go again!

It seems to me that a lot of Liverpool fans have already thrown in the towel. City still have three games to go, one of which is Everton away, and despite what the conspiracy theorists say, that will still be a very tough game.

In truth though I couldn't care less who wins the title (as long as it's never Arsenal). But then again I'd prefer it not to be Liverpool because I worry their fans could become quite insufferable again. The last couple of seasons they've learnt a bit of humility but it could all be for nothing.

I'm a Spurs fan though so I'm probably just bitter that yet again, much like religion, we promise much but deliver nothing. It feels like it's been the worst season I've ever seen, some of the defeats have been truly embarrassing. If we win our last two games we'll have our highest ever Premier League points total, so maybe it's not as bad as I think.

The main positive I take as a Spurs fan, and I have to find one somewhere, is that Christian Eriksen is better than Mesut Ozil. Just a shame about the other £90million  of 'talent' we brought in.

Liverpool fan - been a great season. Way beyond expectation.

I think City will win it now, they will beat Everton on Saturday, too much made of "how they have lost there the last four years." So they will correct that and win well.

I think Pool will draw 1-1 with Palace, Chelsea will probably win, taking it to the final day but when you look at the fixture list... yeah, City will win the league.

It has been the most enjoyable season I have witnessed in years! Man Utd's demise, Liverpool's rise... I suppose other things have happened but I like to concentrate on those two things the most. Oh, and Jose Mourinho not winning anything with his £100M+ little ponies.  

And then we have the World Cup! Three full games to enjoy!

And Utd fans crawl back into the woodwork ;D I fucking love it!

That aside, relying on the neighbours to get a result, didn't go as well as expected. 2 home games left for City and one of them... Aston Villa ;D Sweet Jesus Stevie, of all the teams to be counting on.

If we can beat Palace 10-0 we should be in with a chance which means we'll probably draw. All in all it's being a great season played beyond our expectations, finish in the top 3 and watch Utd crumble.

I'll take that

Mark

Flash in the pan, boys... Liverpool will be back down there next season.

King Louis will be flashing his balls at you next season as we get back to the top.

The Villa will win the day! I hate Shitty with a passion. But Liverpool's choke last week has made me feel they deserve to miss out.  But I hate Shitty with a passion so I'm still rooting for the Scousers (be odd if I didn't...you know, Beatles, mumble mumble, home of music...lol)
