In terms of the race for CL places, we're the only ones playing so a bit shit.

Dont care about the title or relegation battles.

Spuds and Chelsea are in Cup action and i assume Newcastle were due to play one of the 4 semi finalists hence their weekend off.

This could be the weekend we are officially out of the title race tbh

Come on Villa and Norwich

I know 99.999999% of gooners think we have no chance but for Ollie and um well just him, bet he still thinks it on

Thommo says ref should apologise. And everyone's disgusted with the decision not to ban Balotelli.

Arsenal haven't really made a big deal about it at all. The fairies.

McNamara That Ghost...

Tevez booked for diving.

:haha:

Definitely wasn't a dive.

McNamara That Ghost...

Tevez

Poor stuff Ruddy.

Ernesto

Meh, if it stays like this, we can't win the league on goal difference. Unless both Manc clubs lose in the derby, that is :pray:

McNamara That Ghost...

Norwich 0-2 Citeh, Aguero. Great move and finish.

Good effort from Holt, Hart with the ISS save.

Great shot.

Nasri booked.

McNamara That Ghost...
14-04-2012, 12:32 PM
0-2 HT. Delia to inspire the crowd again in a game against Citeh?

McNamara That Ghost...
14-04-2012, 12:55 PM
Norwich 1-2 Citeh, Surman!

Hart came out for a cross and punched it straight down to Surman to volley it back in. :lol:

Rors
14-04-2012, 12:56 PM
Norwich get one back, Surman.

Flap-ola from Hart. It will never happen again...

McNamara That Ghost...
14-04-2012, 01:04 PM
Good save by Ruddy to deny Zabaleta.

McNamara That Ghost...
14-04-2012, 01:06 PM
Good block by Tevez to deny Aguero a likely goal. :lol:

Man City destroying another pub team.

In the games that matter, they usually crumble. Will be interesting if Man Utd drop a cpoule of points soon - really hoping the game against Man Utd can change the look of the table but doubt it will.

Master Splinter
14-04-2012, 01:32 PM
United will most likely beat Villa 6-0.

So Mancini, in trying to be cute and clever and attempting mind games, was actually right for once.

If United bottle the title, Fergie will probably kill himself.

Cripps_orig
14-04-2012, 01:32 PM
Mancs will destroy Villa tomorrow so back to 5 points.

Who has the tougher run in?

Olivier's xmas twist
14-04-2012, 01:33 PM
1-4

Aguero

Nah its only a pub team they beat, UTD will win the next two games (with the help of refs) then City will go and bottle the derby in 2 weeks anyways.

The Iceman cometh. Again. Gylfi Sigurdsson stings Paul Robinson's palms with one long-range blast and then, moments later, fires an unstoppable swerving shot past the Blackburn keeper after the resulting corner is not properly cleared. Swansea deserve their lead - Blackburn have been poor, to say the least.Looks like it

Cripps_orig
14-04-2012, 03:30 PM
Was it another wondergoal?No

As we were then

Mancs v Villa tomorrow

Victory for Villa will probably mean they are safe

Villa are lucky the rest below then are useless otherwise they be in the battle tbh.

Master Splinter

The Wolves fans were apparently singing 'Connor for England' at the Stadium of Light today... it looks like they have kept their sense of humour despite their predicament at the bottom.

Wolves fans seem very thick. They were mocking their team for the whole match against us. Laughing at Connor is pathetic. He's the definition of a rabbit in headlights.

Wow. When one of the higlights includes the ref being happy with a ball not touching the quadrant line for a corner, you know it has been a belter of a game.

It is still mathematically do-able.

Maybe if they both go into receivership and get a points deduction?

Villa are pants away from home. Can't imagine this will be anything other than a formality for Man Utd - but I'd love to be proved wrong. I would like Man Utd to win the title ahead of Man City. Let me rephrase that - I would like Man City to lose the title more than Man Utd, but the closer it is, the more interesting it remains for the last couple of fixtures.

I can see the race for 4th going to the last day with Tottenham, Chelsea (and maybe even Newcastle) still in with a chance. I can see there being the usual scrap to avoid relegation; with Wigan somehow escaping. It would be great if Man Utd needed to get something at Sunderland (very tough game!) to clinch the title.

Come on uncertainty.

There's only one winner.

Come on football.

I do, but it's by default more than anything else. There would need to be at least two major results swings in the remaining weeks, and I don't see that happening. I won't be rushing out to buy the 2011/2012 DVD though put it that way..

Cant blame Ashley Young, he did it last week and the one eyed english press, gave him the benefit of the doubt. So this week hes given it the full monty. Now Balotelli on the other hand he must be the devil spawn, putting in two tackles of the kind that Paul Scholes should have taken a patent out on, having made a 20 year career out of it.....but then again we all know that it aint Scholesys fault, he just doesnt know how to tackle, he means no harm.

A direct free kick is awarded to the opposing team if a player commits
any of the following seven offences in a manner considered by the
referee to be careless, reckless or using excessive force:
• kicks or attempts to kick an opponent
• trips or attempts to trip an opponent
• jumps at an opponent
• charges an opponent
• strikes or attempts to strike an opponent
• pushes an opponent
• tackles an opponent
A direct free kick is also awarded to the opposing team if a player
commits any of the following three offences:
• holds an opponent
• spits at an opponent
• handles the ball deliberately (except for the goalkeeper within his
own penalty area)

A penalty kick is awarded if any of the above ten offences is committed
by a player inside his own penalty area, irrespective of the position of
the ball, provided it is in play.

Regardless of whether we had full-on cheats before (and I think it was blown way out of proportion), the fact is that these days we don't even bother appealing for half shouts. I know every fan probably thinks it about their team but, genuinely, Arsenal are the team that dive/play-act the least. I would actually say we need to do it more. If we played our cards a bit better and got the ref on our side, we could gain so many points that the 'top side bias' is supposed to bring. Since 2010, Fabregas was absolutely brilliant at it. Van Persie doesn't bother with it.

It's not even a penalty, really, is it? Contact = penalty will be the standard nonsense defence. But he just stands on the bloke's toes and chucks himself over. When you have to do a mid-air scissor tackle, I think you know there's no contact.

Guy's such a consistent cheat even Sky can't stomach it. But as long as the refs keep playing along there's no incentive for Young to show any character. Right now he's being rewarded every time he cheats. I suppose even Ferguson will say he didn't think it was a pen, but that's just part of the game. It won't change the result and Young won't be hounded in the same way as Eduardo. It wouldn't take 10 seconds for technology to sort this out and get rid of players like Young from the game. That's why technology is so fiercely resisted I suppose.
