Horrific keeping from Fat Robbo.

McNamara That Ghost...
25-02-2012, 06:03 PM
I thought showing messages under your shirt was a booking? Balotelli hasn't been booked as far as I know. :lol:

McNamara That Ghost...
25-02-2012, 06:07 PM
Kompany with a backheel effort from a corner, Zola style, Fat Robbo parries it out, Yaya somehow puts it wide. :lol:

25-02-2012, 06:49 PM
Pretty drab game, much like most of City's home games because they're so one sided.

McNamara That Ghost...
25-02-2012, 07:12 PM
Citeh 3-0 Blackeye, Dzeko.

McNamara That Ghost...
25-02-2012, 07:23 PM
3-0 FT. As routine as it gets.

Master Splinter
25-02-2012, 07:30 PM

They'll probably be like this for the rest of the season, given they've been running like maniacs for the past few months.

Hughes :wave:

What a shit manager.

Cripps_orig

Sunderland lost 4-0 and we lost to them last week?

Wenger :haha:

Master Splinter
25-02-2012, 11:54 PM
Motson.

Oh dear.

First the "honest Frank" comment.

Then calling Miyaichi "Mirichi" a number of times and even one "Miyraichi".

Motson :haha:.

BBC :haha:.

And no surprise that The Old Boys Club can't fathom why Lumps would ever be left out of the team.

Giggs starts for Man Utd in what will be his 900th appearance, should be enough to secure the FoTY awards this season.

Marc Overmars
26-02-2012, 12:50 PM

Signed up for another year as well. The freak.

26-02-2012, 09:55 PM
I was just wondering that.

What were the televised games this weekend?

I know ours was but that has its own thread though. Did nothing else happen? Ive been working all week so no idea about other games

McNamara That Ghost...

Newcastle drew and dropped further behind us. Chavs won but we stayed ahead on goals scored. Liverpool didn't play in the PL this week. Don't give a toss about the rest.

Barcodes ballsed it up from 2-0 against Wolves but barely any reaction to it. Weird.

I assume we'll be on first?

Hope so. Cba watching highlights of other games

Dixon, Fat Robbo and Pardew in the studio. :wacko:

Pardew, Paul Robinson (fat one) and Dixon there

Pardew to mention rape again?

Harsh booking for Parker

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:08 PM
Here's a solution Pearce, how about the players don't make those challenges?

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:08 PM
Bale. :haha:

Clever play.

I don't think they should be pelanties anyway, no intent from the player to try and score a goal at all. Just kick the ball away on purpose so the goalkeeper has no chance whatsoever.

Coney
26-02-2012, 10:08 PM
"May have caught his trailing leg"? Piss off, Motty. He dived.

Parker is a very ordinary player.

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:16 PM
Is that the challenge which killed Vermaelen for a while?

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:18 PM
Against the enemy. :haha:

Sagna. :bow:

Coney
26-02-2012, 10:18 PM
Parker is a very ordinary player.

His tackle was not late as Motson claimed - if you watch, he deliberately put his foot down so that he would half stand on Verm's foot. The ****.

GP
26-02-2012, 10:18 PM
Sagna :bow:

What a man.

Shaqiri Is Boss
26-02-2012, 10:21 PM
Parker is a very ordinary player.
He runs a lot.

So does Spearing.

I don't see a lot between the two.

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:22 PM
Modric is a bit shit isnt he?

GP
26-02-2012, 10:23 PM
He runs a lot.

So does Spearing.

I don't see a lot between the two.

Agreed.

Syn
26-02-2012, 10:24 PM
It's funny how people were saying how Tottenham's midfield of Modric, Parker and others would dominate.

People are starting to believe the media hype.

They're a good side, no doubt. But lets see if they're still on top in May before conceding that they're a better team.

When the fuck is Wilshere back ffs. What a difference he'd make.

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:26 PM
Rooney still out with that sore throat?

Raider :rose:

Header tap-in for Scholes.

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:28 PM
Good save by De Gea with his feet.

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:28 PM
De Gea with a great save

Hes coming good ffs

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:29 PM
And another one. :o

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:29 PM
And again and he caught it as well

Given would have tipped that over probably

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:32 PM
Scholes. :lol:

That was Ramsey-esque in its hospital nature.

Cripps_orig
26-02-2012, 10:32 PM
Fucking hell

De Gea is awesome

26-02-2012, 10:33 PM

26-02-2012, 10:33 PM
Wellbeck :haha:

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:33 PM

Future England striker for sure.

Scholes And Giggs scored?

It's black magic FFS.

Giggs scored in Fergie time?

WPOTY 2012?

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:37 PM
Why mention that goal? Bastard.

Marc Overmars
26-02-2012, 10:39 PM
Giggs and Scholes need to piss off tbf.

What a nightmare United must be for City at the moment.

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:40 PM
Good work BBC, block up the picture with your flashy stats screen.

McNamara That Ghost...
26-02-2012, 10:47 PM
Stoke won from a corner and a throw-in against Swansea. :sick:

Delap had better watch out, Shotton is putting his place in the team under threat.

Marc Overmars
26-02-2012, 10:52 PM
Does Shotton still have that built-in towel?

Dennis Bendtner
26-02-2012, 10:57 PM
Being in their academy must be an experience. Kicked into touch if you have a first touch. Targets marked out for the long throw trials. There must be more graduates where Shotton came from.

Master Splinter

I wasn't listening to commentary yesterday but looking at the highlights now it appears Sky have moved ratboy from the studio to commentary? That's a ridiculous move. He just doesn't have the flair required. He might say the right things but that's not enough. A good commentator has a good voice and a charismatic style. A whiny, northern, ratty voice just doesn't work. I'm all for equal opportunities within reason. Young people - under 25? Sure, if they're good enough they're old enough. Women? Yeah, give them a go even if it doesn't sound 'right' at first. Northern rats? No.

There should be a version of X Factor where potential commentators audition. Just put them through a series of weird incidents and see what they come out with.

But yeah, ratboy can fuck off. Or stay in the studio where I don't have to listen to him.

Cripps_orig
27-02-2012, 03:15 PM
Neville is an awesome pundit tbh

Syn
27-02-2012, 03:25 PM
I only watched the highlights and spotted a few mistakes. "Arsenal have come back from 2 goals down and are now 3 up"...at that point it was 1 up. And some of the classic Sky Sports cringeworthy nonsense "it's a wand, his left foot". But I don't really have much problem with what he says. Leave him in the studio and people who don't want to watch the build-up won't have to listen to him. But his voice just isn't suited to commentary. You need a good, deep voice. Ray Wilkins is an idiot but he has a good voice. You need some middle ground - the voice of Wilkins but the content of Neville/Redknapp

But I don't understand why ex-footballers seem to get these roles. It doesn't happen as much in other countries, as far as I know. Marcotti isn't an ex-footballer but would be a good pundit/commentator for Sky. As I say, open up the selection pool to nobodies, put them through a series of exercises - pick the best one and I guarantee he'll (sexist) be a great commentator.

He's got the full time Andy Gray role, doing both co-commentary and punditry depending on the games.
