SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2020/21

Pal Arse are not a good ad for the Premier League.

 

Is Zaha really a 59 million quid player?? Grealish? Tyrone Mings got sent off he looks like he's worth about 5 million.

Palace had the man advantage and at half time were evens to get a draw or win.

They've been shit. They've done nothing.

 

The worst agenda and narrative driving commentary is typically performed by the pundits. It's also much easier for them to be spin doctors given they simply have more time to come up with their talking points. It's especially annoying when the live action guys are trying to do it in real time.

 

Float it out that Barcelona are heavily interested in and he'll be all of a sudden one of the best players on the planet. If they actually signed him then it would be confirmation of that status before he attended the first training session.

 

Pundits are never wrong. Sky have a gay black female pundit doing the in studio commentary for Arsenal vs Chelsea, for people like me who can't be arsed paying 9 quid for a day pass.

2-0 Arsenal.

If Arsenal win it will leave Liverpool 6 clear of Chelsea with a game in hand.

Liverpool next games

West Brom H
Newcastle A
Southampton A
Villa A in Cup
Man United H

 

Yeah it's self fulfilling nonsense. And then when their big move ends in shite, it's cos "it didn't really work out for him down there"...

 

And if it's anybody coming to the PL it's they couldn't handle the "rigors" and what not.

 

I'm not proud per se of what Liverpool did but, and this is cold comfor, you're as well waiting for a different owner instead of some slave driver from the Arabian peninsula.

 

Newcastle keeping it country vs City for the most part tonight.

 

Couldn't handle having their legs broken by Ryan Shawcross.

I don't doubt the fundamental gist of this story, not for one minute


Player reveals what happened before horror Aaron Ramsey leg break

Run, kick, hold, chase and tackle the opposition into the dirt, tell everyone how "honest" your side care and how the opposition can't handle your "honesty".

FFS

And our friends the Pundits are complicit, with their "can't handle a wet Tuesday in Stoke" bullshit.

 

Indeed. The EPL is one of the best and most competitive in the world. Nobody other than a troll would disagree. It's possibly the best depending on how and when you measure things.

That's not good enough for some people. It's not only fanboy shit, it's fanboy shit with money behind it. Kind of makes you wonder why clubs would spend billions of dollars on foreign ballerinas to play a game of rugby. I guess they just want those shirt sales.

 

Football was more important without the foreign johnnies. Here's the proof.

 

The thing about football is that on any given day you've got 22 players, 4 officials and about 10 other people including subs and management. That's it. 50k in attendance, millions watching, and A TV panel but there's 40 people that COUNT and everybody else is a total hanger on.

So all these guys need to get in on the act with an angle. Take Richard Keys as an example. Richard Keys has done NOTHING in football. NADA. Never played or managed or coached.

Yet Keys, who has all the presence of a voles cock, has inserted himself into every football argument going, usually along some sort of bawdy jingoistic line.

Keys actually took up the charge in I believe 2009 when he insinuated, without any proof, that mystical shadowy forces had nobbled Chelsea in their Champions League semi vs Barcelona.

He literally just sat there and started off with this shit,... And then, get this, APOLOGOZED for the language being used by Didier Drogba who HAD played in the game and actually had cause for being upset.

As of it had SHIT to do with Keys, any of it, yet here he was right in the thick of it, arguing both sides.

Twat.

 

City won. Everton won. Villa won.

United Drew, Leicester drew.

Chelsea lost.

Mixed bag for Liverpool..

I hate Allardyce. Such a fucking mong. Needs bashing.

McBurnie should have grabbed an equaliser there

 

Liverpool and Everton top at Christmas

 

I don't know who any of those people are (bar Drogba obv) but similar shit happens on this side of the pond. "Angles" or "hot takes" are nearly interchangeable.

Just get a reaction. Previously it would be viewed or called "no publicity is bad publicity".

What it boils down to is integrity is irrelevant.

 

No offence lad, but you can stick it up your hole. I used to respect LFC. A proper fitba club who fought among whatever they were faced with to be the big club they are.

But what they have done to NUFC showed that they are fucking cowards. Maybe the memory of sitting behind they last time Newcastle United actually punched their weight made them realise what would happen if a minted NUFC started to compete again. And they fucking closed shop. Among others.

Cowards. Fuck them, and fuck the rest of the closed shop.

MTF

 

There's no integrity in anything anymore. Anywhere. Klopp has a bit of integrity, it's all individuals though. Collectively, there's fuck all. Grab what you can. Cause a scene. The ratings!! Don't forget the ratings!!

I wonder what they'll do to Cavani.

 

I don't know the details but anybody signing on with this shit is suspect. It's the "i got mine" of football.

Maybe one day if you work hard enough you can join our special club.

 

Thats me back in my box so.

It's a dog business.

I remember when the game was proper rigged so that Liverpool couldn't buy a free agent like Gabriel Heinze because the Directors of the FA and the Man United Directors were.... the same people.
Or when Luis Suarez got a 10 game ban for something Cavani won't even get banned for. Or when clubs would show up at United and roll over or when the Fergie Mafia of Allardyce, Bruce, Hughes, etc all ruled the roost and fitted people up.

Its not really a closed club. If Twitter or Elon Musk come in, then Newcastle will be bought out and LFC won't be able to do a thing about it.

It was just bad luck you had who you had. It was essentially a bunch of feudal shit kickers fighting each other. You've got Mike Ashley and very few want to do business with him.....hes got Amanda Holden up there and she'd sell snow faster to Eskimos than sell NUFC.

Remember, Moore and Parry, both supposedly acting in the clubs interests, sold LFC to a pair of Corporate Raiders who damn near ruined the place and the BBC and Fleet Street joined in the party.

I remember Dan Roan stood there on the day winding up people about how LFC might be relegated, sold for scrap etc.

Grass is always greener on the other fuckers grave, innit.

 

He's not wrong.

"I'm alright jack" is basically the motto of most clubs.

The thing is Liverpool sucked it for years before some excellent business and hard decisions and luck got them out of it.

Remember, Liverpool played 4 Seasons of CL football between 2010 and 2020.

 

Fottball is tribal. The marketing men figured this out. Winners support teams that are winning. Losers support loser clubs. If your team is winning you're winning. If your manager is shit, you're probably shit too.

 

I feel that motto is exactly what's shit about football and life in general.

Not everyone is going to be a success, but it's not a zero sum game and you don't kick the ladder out from underneath you because you had some struggles.

 

I agree but people's attitude is "oh ill just enjoy this for a bit" and next thing you know it's a habit. I don't know a single person who didn't apaud what Leicester did and then immediately hope their side was next.

BTW.... The BEIN deal was approved by EVERY club bar Newcastle.

 

MOTD is on now BTW....

 

First the news..... More lies.

 

Also fuck George Blake. What do you mean "double agent".... He was a turncoat jailbird who got people killed. Disgusted with the soft soap approach the BBC and Friends took with him. Ffs. The same cunts crying that Trump might pardon Snowden then laying it on thick for a scumbag like Blake.

Also we know have to sit through shite about some lass on a pony doing toff stuff.

hurry up and show Marcus "Free Lunches" Rashford missing the ball/being Pele ffs

 

Everyone would love to win the lottery. Being in a professional sports league shouldn't have nearly those impossible odds of doing so.

 

Danny Murphy and Shearer in the studio. Hair free day.

 

Agreed. That's why... AMAZINGLY...the Americans of ALL people are way out in front on these things. They basically rotate their titles in baseball basketball football and hockey.
