Eboue may not always be a fantastic player, but his team morale boosting is excellent.

[R3DM@N]

Well Arsenal are still searching for a Premiership

[Spork]

Eh, as long as we consistently put out results like this to half decent or better teams (braga finished above Porto and beat Sevilla home and away last season), I am reasonably happy.

[Spork]

Although, we play away to Sunderland on Sat, so that is going to be one of the first real tests of the season, I feel worse about this than I did Liverpool.

[Thetruereddevil]

and we have liverpool, always a nice fired up encounter;)

[Spork]

And Chelsea have Blackpool at the Bridge, will be a difficult win......

[R3DM@N]

Blackpool are my underdog favs so if we lose then i wont be too angry might be good to come back down to earth

[Spork]

If you lose to Blackpool, I will deposit $5 in your bank.



I would LOVE for Blackpool to stay as high up as possible for as long as possible.

Although they really are the Wolves of 2010.

theres always one promoted team that goes really well to start with

hopefully they dont follow the trend and crash and burn after that

hull did it a year or two back i remember, scored like 3 points second half of the season or something crazy

Ah, I was thinking of Hull, not Wolves.

I dislike both of those teams as much as each other. Mick Mccarthy is a dick, and Phil Brown as well.

while its "nice" to see promoted teams noone really gives much hope to to do ok, not at the expense of my team thank you

there are a few more established teams i dont mind in the premiership and championship tho, more for players theyve have/have had, managers, or no real reason at all, i wouldnt sit down and watch a game of theirs tho, more just keep an eye on the results

[R3DM@N]

Blackburn is my mid-rated favourites and Blackpool my underdog favourites so go them

[Thetruereddevil]

Ipswich, Stoke (as a mate supports them) and Sheffield Wednesday (boss comes from there and we spend much time not working and talking shit about each others clubs, regardless i keep an eye on their results)

[Spork]

Fuck Stoke.

[Thetruereddevil]

yup fair enough too

as i would also say fuck blackburn, lol

tho as ryan nelsen plays for them, he personally can do well

[jayp]

LOL

[camy205]

GG Real Madrid. Sociedad should of won, they had some awesome chances.

[Spork]

Cmon Liverpool Wigan and Blackpool!!

Fuck Darren Bent.

[R3DM@N]

I heart Darren

[Spork]

I looked at scorestime.com about half an hour ago, and saw Man U up 2-0. Meh, bloody useless Liverpool.

Load up scorestime.com now.. STEEVIEE GGG

[Spork]

Bloody Berbatov.

[maorifulla]

Bloody Berbatov.

i was looking at berba b4 the game thinking "shit i would trade him for torres"

and what do you know he grabs a hatty

man its gonna be a long season for me

Liverpool simply have no penetration

our only 2 shots on goal were the penalty and the free kick lol

we will lucky to stay out of relegation this year hahaha

[Thetruereddevil]
