Noel Gallagher on Talksport... "It's great to see Suarez crying. He's a blatant cheat and it's a disgrace he's won Player of the Year."

[theadmiral]

I can't believe Liverpool managed to screw that one up.

[Mr Rabbit]

If chelsea had not f*cked up then we would have 81 81 80. Now that would have been interesting. f*ckers

Have you ever cried watching Football?

No

Have you ever skipped class/work to watch your team play?

No, never needed to

What is the team/s you hate the most and why?

Leeds United, big rivals with both my main teams (man United and my hometown side Huddersfield) and their fans, every single one I met are pricks and the chanting about the Munich Air Disaster when Man U last played them topped it off

Chelsea, fans are disrespectful to football in general as seen by distrupting countless silences for Hillsborugh fans, Munich Air Disaster or anything really. Plus they bought all their success, at least city admit it, but Chelsea did not necessarilly jsut buy players

What is your favourite team from England (Can be more than one)?

Manchester United (family ties, supported them all my life, well for as long as I gave 2 tosses about football)

Huddersfield Town (where I am from, local pride, this local pride became strong when I left)

What is your favourite team from Spain (Can be more than one)?

Barcelona, nice attractive football, good to watch

Do you have a season ticket to go watch your team play all the games?

No, could not get one, plus I have a fear of crowds, would still go though

What player you dislike the most in your team and why?

Cleverley: he is sh*t

When you go watch a game, do you sit quietly or do you let out your Hooligans side and start cheering for your team like a maniac?

Maniac

/// BONUS ///

Imagine you are a 17 year old football player that plays for the youth team of a big team. Let’s say your dad is from a country where the football national team is very good (Brazil, Spain, Germany, England…) and your mom is from a country where the football team has no chance on going further than group stages (Hong Kong, Barbados, Bahamas…). So when you turn 18, you have to decide whether you risk your career and try to end up playing in a big national team (From where your father is from) or accept your mom nationality and immediately play in a small national team (Your mother’s country).

What would you choose and why?

Bigger nation, because the ones you gave for smaller won't even get to the world cup so playing for them will do my career no real favours, and it is not like not playing for a big nation hinders your career.

Playing with top quality players will help the career if i get in as well, more so than playing 100 times alongside people who I can't even name.

We were pretty unlucky though. Hit the post god knows how many times and also had 2 clear pens denied.

 

I just know City are going to lose their next game as well, it's inevitable the way this season's gone. Then all 3 teams will probably draw their final games and it will end up going to Liverpool after all.

[arsenal_fan]

 

Tony Pulis trolling Liverpool into thinking they can win by a cricket score and make up the goal difference and then gets a draw. Probably the best match I watch this season, I would of broken my TV if I was a Liverpool fan.

[I cucked Alex Jones]

I remember when Arsenal blew a four goal lead at St James Park. Still, it didn't happen to a team managed by Tony f*cking Pulis, in ELEVEN MINUTES.

Liverpool seemed to get carried away with the idea that they needed to increase their GD, when they should have been focusing on not losing their lead. Even at 3-2 they were still pouring forward, even though by that point it was pretty obvious their chance of gaining on City's GD lead had gone. The amount of space Gayle had for the equaliser was astonishing. He could have drifted an articulated lorry with trailer attached sideways into that gap. The defense just completely parted.

Tony Pulis deserves manager of the year IMO.

[I cucked Alex Jones]

If the award doesn't go to someone named Rodgers or Martinez, it should go to Gus Poyet.

 

Or David Moyes.

Yeah I think Tony Pulis deserves manager of the year. Back in October, Palace were for certain going down but Pulis has came in and turned it around for them.

I'm the most annoying, Tommy? You are just mad that I was right all along and you were horribly wrong . Get over it m8

I ain't mad because you got something right as a lot people thought Moyes would fail so I guess I'm mad at them too, eh? I stuck by Moyes along with many other United fans and backed him but he wasn't a success. The whole thing with Moyes and United hate was pathetic on your part. You just jump on any bandwagon so you're annoying, end of discussion

Edited May 6, 2014 by Tommy.

[theadmiral]

Any bandwagon ? Name one other one besides predicting Moyes failure and sacking by the end of the season.

This ain't the place for me to be telling you why I think you're annoying anyway. If you're so desperate to know then PM me.

 

Back to football...

 

Anyone else looking forward to the Play-off's? Predictions?

 

League 2: Would like to see York City go up but I'm going with Southend.

 

League 1: Would like to see Rotherham go up because I done a FIFA 10 career mode with them and got them to the Premiership so I'll go with Rotherham.

 

Championsip: Want Derby to go up and think they'll do it. Steve Mcclaren has done a good job there.

League 1: I think PNE will win the playoffs
Championship: I think Derby will win the playoffs.

I dont really care who goes up though out of the playoff teams to be honest.

The amount of space Gayle had for the equaliser was astonishing. He could have drifted an articulated lorry with trailer attached sideways into that gap. The defense just completely parted.

 

Seriously, why the f*ck didn't they sit back and defend? It's a great example of when to park the bus. The 3 points was always going to be more important than an unlikely comeback from an -8 goal difference (or was it nine)? it was painful for even me to watch.

 

I think LFC and their fans can still hold their heads high, though. They've had a pretty remarkable season. Nobody thought this team was capable of challenging for the title and they've proved those doubters wrong by coming within inches of it. They've got Champions League football to look forward to next season, and another genuine shot at the title, hopefully barring any massive defensive blunders this time around. The Liverpool attack is fine, but whip that defense into shape. They've still got everything to play for.

Like you said we where trying to close the GD gap. I just dont understand why we didn't just sit back and defend and keep possesion once they scored their first goal. Again its easier to say this in hindsight as until they scored their first they didn't look like scoring at all never mind scoring three. Once the second goal went in I just knew that the third was going to come.

Making fun of Suarez biting people? Guilty

Not liking Barcelona for various reasons? Guilty

Stating that Young is a diver? Guilty

Stating that Januzaj started off with a huge diving problem? Guilty

Liverpool need new defenders badly. Why has Rodgers been benching Agger and playing Sakho? I think the Skrtel and Agger partnership is much better.

No more quizzes and no more sniping at each other.

We have always defended much better when we play Skrtel and Agger so I also dont understand why he plays Sakho. Only Rodgers and his staff know that answer. Yes we need new defenders but I'd just be happier if we played Agger. The first defender that needs to be replaced is Johnson, we could then switch Flannagan back to RB and have Enrique back at LB next season. That's not a perfect defense but it would be better than what we have now.
