Fulham are just returning to their level, I can see them being relegatied again this season if they keep playing like they are..... surely their manager has to go already
With Norwich set to run away with the league im not sure thinking Forest will be up there |

I can't ever remember him being particularly good/prolific at set pieces when he was with Sunderland? xD |
Brentford's defence was awful for those first two goals, how did they get so outnumbered in the first one?
Yeah I really doubt Sunderland would let Leadbitter take set pieces, he is genuinely awful with them usually. I'm not sure why he takes our penalties either now we have Kike who has some ridiculously good record with penalties, but he does a good job on those so I guess I'd let him carry on if I was in charge. |
Bayern Munich vs Manchester City tonight, I think Bayern will win probably 3-1 or 3-2
|
It was a quick break on a slack pass. They had no chance.
So Solskjaer seems to have gone and Fulham are losing 2 -1 to Forest. Bye bye Felix? |
What a game! Boro have done the town proud tonight and set a record in the process it seems. A bit disappointed it ended how it did, but I'm still more than happy with the job done tonight.
As long as we can keep our group of players together, I think we're on for a very very good season. Rough night for Norwich, but I'm sure they'll be straight back on track in the next league game. |

Liverpool aren't gonna do great this season but a strong midtable finish does seem to be how we'll go. 6th, 7th maybe? We've got to adjust. Was delighted to see Rossiter score on his debut. He will go far. only problem is I have work tomorrow, but that penalty shootout was of such quality and it was so thrilling that I don't care. I ****ing love football. |
Only caught extra time in the Liverpool vs Boro game, seemed an okay match though.
Norwich and knock out competition really do not mix, a single decent run in my entire time supporting the club. Think Adams got one thing really wrong tonight, not a single pacy player started. It seems he wanted to give the rest of the central players much needed starts so there was no room for Murphy. Certainly should have performed better but I suppose a totally changed squad was always going to find it tough. Only real positive I can take from it is the fact that Hooper and Howson both returned from injuries. |
Newcastle won. Most shocking result of the week.

I'm sure Liverpool will do fine, but Balotelli will have to look a lot more interested soon. I think you'll probably finish fifth which will be a disappointment after last season, but compared with other recent season it's more than acceptable. You still have a really good team obviously, but the two Manc sides, Chelsea & Arsenal should lock up the top four spots assuming United sort out their defence. It might be difficult for you or Spurs to break through again anytime soon. Quote:
I suppose cup competitions are far from the priority for your side this year so it's not a major disappointment anyway. It will be useful to do well if you get back up though. Just had a little browse through Norwich's honours, I would have had no idea they finished 3rd in the first season of the Premier League. That's pretty cool really, not many teams can have finished in the top since it began outside the big ones. I'm thinking maybe Villa, Blackburn, Newcastle and perhaps Leeds? Quote:

Middlesborough are surely going to be playing either the Tyne-Tees or the Wear-Tees derby next season.
|
Not many sides have done it in the Premier League era that's for sure.
Sadly we were then violently mismanaged off of the pitch and we almost folded. Since then there has been a lot of mediocrity and a few seasons of what is now relative success in the Premier League. That being said I truly believe that we have a lot more good times to come under the stewardship of our CEO David McNally, to think that some fans seriously wanted him to quit. In my time watching I have seen 7 managers and McNally appointed the best and 3rd best, yeah the third best was actually Hughton and you know what I think about him. |
Quote:
I can't be as certain as saying we'll surely be playing either of them, but I'm very optimistic right now and maybe we'll have some sort of PC Football Discussion Thread dream promotion of Boro and Norwich. Quote:
|
Well that would certainly be nice. In the meantime there should be a couple of good games between Boro and Norwich in the Championship, don't think either team will sit back too much in their respective away game.
Fulham and Cardiff, I just hope they remain amusing to watch from the outside a while longer. I also hope Hughton gets the Fulham job, that way I'm sure we'll get a million or two for Bassong come January. Some real stability and time to build in the PL would be nice. Desperately hope we return this year or I'm sure Redmond will be off. Most exciting player we've had here since Huckerby. |
What day is it today? Derby day ^^^^
|
When you realize this is soccer. Stupid america
|
I fancy Everton to get something from Anfield to be honest, Liverpool just are not that good this year at all.... the evening derby match between Arsenal and Tottenham I expect Arsenal to win by a few goals.
We are going to be demolished by Chelsea with Diego Costa scoring a bunch :lol: |
I hope for nothing less than a demolition. 4-0 or 5-0 with someone getting sent of. But in the end I'd be happy with a 1-0 or a 2-1. My favourite derby win was the one where Kygiakos got sent off and we still managed to get a goal and presevre the lead till the final whistle.
I hope Costa doesn't score today because my FPL H2H opponent has Costa in his team. :cheeky: |
What a cruel way to end the match.
|
Good result for us even if the performance wasn't too amazing. Great first league goal for Murphy. Next up Charlton at home, hopefully we'll give them their first loss of the season, I think they've drawn 6 times already.
|
i wanna kill myself, i wanna ****ing kill myself, why united playing so badly, what the actual **** :/
did u guys watch the everton-liverpool match? damn man what a match! if we play like this we are so ****ing screwed next game. even if we did win it felt like we lost 6-****ing-0. :/ i mean really rooney? **** you. really valencia? **** you. really lvg? **** you. really McNair? u rok, ima watch out for u. why u so meh shaw? man i am really frustrated :/ |
That Jagielka goal was amazing, simply stunning if your going to concede a goal that has to be it.
As I thought we lost 3-0 to Chelsea they will walk away with the league unbeaten I think they have a beast in Diego Costa Anyone have the Arsenal vs Tottenham game on right now WHAT A SAVE by Lloris https://vine.co/v/OZXJqM5hezh Thou the goal-line tech might of been incorrect it reviewed the orginal shot but not what happened after. |
Apparently there were a few good goals today, might even watch MOTD.
|
I think I'll watch MOTD tonight actually, I feel out of the loop on the PL this season and Fifa has me in the mood to watch it. Both derbies sound like fun games too. Pelle's goal is worth a rewatch.
Today's draw wasn't great, but it's acceptable given that we had to rest a few players. We should be back to winning ways against Blackpool on Tuesday anyway. Quote:

It was amazing to see just how poor United were after Rooney got sent off it was all West Ham, they might of held on but other teams would of scored a couple. United are learning that you can not spend £151m spend most of it on attackers and cheap out defensively
