Official Premiership Thread

SS is just trying to make the best of a bad situation. Leave him be.

I genuinely can't see what happened to Woodgate for our disallowed goal but I haven't got a very good angle on the video I have. What was it disallowed for?

Please don't label English football on what you've seen from the premiership.

You only say that because you're not in it

No I'm not. I've been to more premiership games over the last 10 years than you so therefore have a better understanding. The lower leagues are lot more unpredictable.

Well I predicted Charlton would go down a few years ago when they were in the Prem and I've got that same prediction this time around.

Doesn't seem that different tbh...

You said to consider the Championship as being a loan period and you never said we would go down when we were in the premiership.

You were crestfallen, I was trying to be nice!

I believe it was for the shove on woodgate where he fell over onto a second defender taking them both out of the game.

Looks to me like he went down a little easily.

Anyway I don't think a win was deserved by either side on the balance of play. Tottenham were shit up front and we couldn't be bothered to attack for 90% of the game.

It doesn't matter how easily he went down it was still a foul, something that Sky Sports pundits can never seem to comprehend.

The noise at The Emirates Stadium for that Brazil v Italy match is something else, so much for it being a stadium with poor acoustics :O

JFK's "minor problem" will result in him needing heart bypass surgery tomorrow. Going to take him out of action for around 2 months. All the best Joe.

As much as I still don't think he's the right man for the job long term, I really do think we stood a much better chance of survival with him in the dugout than without him.

All the best to Kinnear.

The reason for the acoustics being so good at the emirates is the way the roof slopes downwards, trapping the sound in like an old fashion ground. This is different to most modern grounds that have a horizontal roof, or Charlton's North Stand that actually points upwards and sends our chants to the heavens!

The worst and most ineffective threat ever made against anyone ever.

I'm sure Spurs' management, board and fans are shitting themselves over that!

I don't think his intentions are to make the club shit themselves...

I agree on what Bent has said.

He has been treated like a piece of shit by Harry twat face redknapp! and I dont blame him for wanting to move, Redknapp is made out by the press to be mr nice guy and he has treated bent badly and of course slaughtering him live on TV.

Spurs have been shite most of the season, if it wasnt for Bents goals they would be worse off than they are already.

Redknapp went down a lot in my estimation when he slagged off Bent live on TV, I didnt buy into his whole hype anyway but I thought he was a nice guy if nothing else.

Bent showed at Charlton that he can score goals he just needs the manager to show him a bit of faith.........and courtesy.

Redknapp is a cunt.

Always has been and always will be.

Dont buy into the hype from the media mate. They are all pally pally with him it appears.

I am now a member of the RIAC (Redknapp is a Cunt) club. Playing a weaken team in Ukraine in front of Spurs fans who have taken time off of work and travelled all the way. It's not exactly the easiest of trips to organise. Hopefully I'll be going there myself this year to see In-Gur-Land play.

Bullard is out for the season. Congratulations to Hull for spending £5m, and breaking their transfer record, and paying out £50k a week, and breaking their wage structure, on a player with very bad kneeds! Each day you succeed in becoming a bigger joke.

How much does it cost to join that club? I'm trying to budget around my "Steve Bruce is a nobend" club, "Fat Sam sucks" club and "Mark Hughes is a twat" club.

I don't understand you're membership of any of those clubs. I gather Big Sam's tactics aren't to your liking, but the guy had to work with a budget! I guess the united connection is the reason for the other 2.

I read nobend as no bend!

Fat Sam just grates every time he mentions that he invented the way to "beat" Arsenal and parades it like it's his big acheivement when 1. He didn't come up with those tactics, Ferguson did and 2. Rarely have Bolton actually "beaten" us with them. They normally just manage to not lose.

Bruce is the United connection but also the way he conducted himself after he left Palace (who as you know are my soft spot team.)

And Mark Hughes is just a cunt.

No wonder I always disagree with you.

Agree with you all on Harry Redknapp, never liked him TBH.

Great goal by Scholes against Fulham, and Edwin still to lose that goal

It's not just Palace though. I dislike any manager who leaves his club claiming he's going to a better team and then tries to buy every player from his previous owners. It's like quitting your job at an IT firm and stealing all the computers on your way out.

Van Der Sar has got just about 90 mins till he breaks the European record.

I hope he makes it through the Blackburn game with another clean sheet, Edwin's been bloody outstanding this season, if only Fergie had bought him before Fulham did

The whole Van Der Sar thing is ridiculous, he's had to do hardly any saves this season. The guys in front of him are the ones who deserve the praise.

I hope you're not accusing Bruce of stealing JK, surely you know about libel laws. A better example would be a boss leaving a company and trying to legally bring the best staff with him, with proper compensation being paid. Anyway, Who did he sign other than Clinton 'The Irish man' Morrison? With Andrew Johnston going the other way as part of the deal!!

Yeah it does help when Edwin has Vidic and Rio infront of him...rate both of them higher than that overpaid twat at Chelsea John Terry

Van Der Sar is quality but I remeber last year he was a bit dodgy at times.

Wouldnt put him up there with the likes of say Schmeichel, but he is still a great keeper .

According to Joorabchian Uniteds option on Tevez has passed and it looks like it will be a bidding war for his services in the summer.

Although he is a good player to pay £30 million for him after paying £10 million for his two year "loan" deal is crazy, He works hard for the team but for that sort of money he would need to be scoring 30 goals a season which he hasnt done yet.

Guillem Ballgue, skys expert on Spanish football, is saying that Eto'o is going to see out his contract with Barca and will be a free agent next year to spite the club after the way they treated him last year. He's a moody little fucker but he can score goals and loads of them, he would be soemone I would love to see at Old Trafford.

Morrison was the only one he got. He actually tried to unsettle most of the squad.
