English Premier League 2008-09

[Galee]

P.S IMHO Chelski did'nt hve CLUE !!!.......Galee is conspicious by HIS Absence also..

I agree, very disappointing performance from Chelsea. As for not commenting, I do have a life other than logging onto UM all the time.

Yeah,Galee So do I but you are in here QUICKLY enough when you WIN !!!

Utter bullsh*t 747. Care to provide some evidence to back up that statement. As far as I am aware I have only commented once on a Chelsea win this season. How many times have you commented on an Everton win since you rejoined the forum recently.

[747man]

Galee, ONLY A couple of times,because it's only RECENTLY Everton started WINNING........Sorry if I wound you up....

[Irish Alan]

Soddit... Just realised Liverpool Vs Everton is next Monday at 8pm GMT, 3am here...

[Galee]

No problem mate. Bit touchy at the moment as you can tell.

To be honest Chelsea are playing cr*p at the moment. Best they can hope for is 3rd in the league. Forget the cups.
Think Scolari has lost the plot. First half performance on Sunday wasn't that bad, then he makes changes at half time and we get annihilated. Oh well, always next season.

Soddit... Just realised Liverpool Vs Everton is next Monday at 8pm GMT, 3am here...

Bob the special one was there because utd have drawn inter in the champions league, he was on a spying mission bet he wished he satayed in italy, Jose said after the game ( what has happened to the chealsea i constructed today they were made to look lacking in skill and strengh) so there you have it Ronaldo will get the cappo del rey tonight as well dont forget at the start of the season he was injured. As a second thought i know drogba is a big fuc er but jesus a little bar girl can knock him over.

Matthew Etherington, and now James Beattie ............ Is Tony Pullis already preparing for life in the championship next year Stokiebaz?

[Geordie]

Blackburn 3 Toon 0.
Chelsea 2 Stoke 1.
Bolton 0 Man U 1.
West Brom 3 Boro 0.
S/land 1 Villa 2.
Man City 1 Wigan 0.
Toon sh*te after a good 1st half, Chelsea come from behind very late in the game, Man U win in stoppage time

[stokiebaz]

i am gutted,five minutes away from a great win,only consolation is we don,t have to play,utd,liverpool or chelsea again this season,and only arsenal and villa away out of top five..stokiebaz..

[Astana]

Better start believing in Santa Geordie, I have sneaking suspicion that Newcastle might go down. Or is it the other mob?

[Geordie]

Stoke very unlucky not to get anything from the game Baz.

[stokiebaz]

cheers geordie..

[Geordie]

Hull 1 Arsenal 3,

I Alan remember what i said 10 days ago, the Mancs are in the driving seat now,who's gonna challenge them.
Goodnight.

Toon sh*te after a good 1st half,

N'Zogbia who I thought was going to be one of the "Stars" of the season, wants to go back to France ....... and it showed Nicky Butt is old enough (and enough) to know better than to put in a challenge like he did in front of Rob Stiles, who we know loves to give red cards and penalties against Newcastle.
Spiderman on the bench? (must have been yet another niggling injury )
That little runt Barton comes off the bench to disgrace the shirt yet again.
Owen looks like he is going through the motions, and as against Hull in the cup, you wouldn't back him to score from the penalty spot even if the keeper had gone for a cup of tea.
Good points to take from the game .......... Seb Bassong looked good again, and his reading of "most" situations meant he was in the right place at the right time. Andy Carroll is starting to look like a "real" No9. He has the power and size, and in my opinion, with a few more games, and the confidence that will bring, could be a "regular" in his own right, as oppossed to being a stopgap due to injuries.
Nice to hear the commentator last night compare him to a young Duncan Ferguson ....... if he ends up scoreing as many times as Big Dunc he wont have done too badly.

As Geordie said "Good first half", and we really should have been a couple of goals to the good by half time, and the game would have been completely different in the second half ................ but "If's & Butts?" don't get you points, and with Man U, Chelsea & Arsenal all due to visit St James between 4th March and 4th April , we need to get some points on the board soon [-o< [-o< [-o<

Joe Cole reported to be "out for the rest of the season" by Sky Sports

Cole ruled out for rest of season

Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole has been ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering a serious knee injury.

The 27-year-old England international ruptured anterior cruciate ligaments in Wednesday's 4-1 FA Cup win at Southend.

Blues boss Luiz Felipe Scolari said: "I am very sad for Joe to have suffered this injury and I am disappointed to have lost a very important player."

Cole will also miss England's World Cup qualifier with Ukraine in April and the friendlies with Spain and Slovakia.

He is also a doubt for the June qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Andorra.

Chelsea and England skipper John Terry added: "We're all behind Coley to get fit as soon as possible. He's going to be a big miss for us and I keep on saying he's the one who really opens things up in tight moments.

"He did it again on Wednesday against Southend. What a pass he produced for Salomon Kalou's goal.

"We're all gutted for him and we know how much it means to him to be playing. No-one will be more hurt at missing games through injury.

"But one thing we all know is that he'll work just as hard off the pitch to get fit as he does on it."

After his outburst last week I think he is in front of the car, mesmerised by on coming headlights

[BobHelm]

Roumour this morning is Abramovitch is thinking of off-loading Chealsea. Since the credit crunch he has lost 3 billion Chealsea have put the feelers out to an Arab buyer. On the KaKa front last nights game after the final whistle he did not hand over his shirt, Shearers opinion was probably keeping his shirt as a reminder of his last game at the San Siro. Man utd are top where they belong and 1 more clean sheet will equel Chealsea's record.

Thanks for the info vlad. Interesting news.
Maybe a mod can shift this info to The Premiership thread where more people are likely to read it.

Best I could do Galee - tis a bit complex to move 1 post from a long thread to another long thread. I have lost topics trying to do that in the past

I have deleted both posts from the Fantasy Football thread.
