[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stupid challenge from Vardy, didn't need to make it.

Shot from Maddison, not far wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a fuck up by Gazzaniga. Fortunate that the goal was disallowed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sissoko booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leicester 0-1 Spuds, Kane. Whilst falling over, naturally.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gazzaniga saves from Perez nearpost.

[Globalgunner]

What the heck does that Numpty. Rodgers scribble in those stupid notes?. Does he think it makes him seem cerebral? The other Pool manager Benitez used to do it too. That's what assistants are supposed to do. Managers should keep their eyes on the game.

[Globalgunner]

Leicester 0-1 Spuds, Kane. Whilst falling over, naturally.

Real Madrid should please come and buy this fucker

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-1 HT.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What the heck does that Numpty. Rodgers scribble in those stupid notes?. Does he think it makes him seem cerebral? The other Pool manager Benitez used to do it too. That's what assistants are supposed to do. Managers should keep their eyes on the game.

I can't stand him, there's something just so disingenuous in the way he is.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aurier. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gazzaniga saves from Vardy, should've buried it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sissoko hauled off, Wanyama on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[Globalgunner]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vardy goes for goal from a ridiculous angle, doesn't work.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lamela off, Eriksen on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barnes off, Gray on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gray booked straight away. :haha:

What's the record?

We want 10!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

9-0 in the Premier League.

Not sure what it was in the Football League but I remember Liverpool beating Palace 9-0 too.

[Globalgunner]

This Watford side would have beaten Frankfurt 5-0. City would therefore have beaten Frankfurt by at least 20. City>Watford>Arsenal>Frankfurt.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That's how it works. Norwich to beat us 4-0.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Everton 0-2 Sheffield United, Mousset!

Marco Silva. :haha:

Well done Waterford.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

They've only had 9 shots on target :lol:

[AFC Leveller]

I remember when we used to hand out thrashings like that a few years ago.

[Marc Overmars]

Watford ran us ragged. :haha:

Just shows the absolute crater in class between us and City.

[Letters]

Watford ran us ragged. :haha:

Just shows the absolute crater in class between us and City.

There’s only 2 good sides in the league.
Everyone else are just varying degrees of useless.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

As a great man once said: At home, everyone is king.

Except Neverton, obviously.

[Letters]

Neverton :haha:
They are such a shambles

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

As a great man once said: At home, everyone is king.

Neverton 0-2 Sheffield United, FT!

:haha:

Theo. :haha:

Iwobi. :rose:

Burnley 2-0 Norwich, FT.

[AFC Leveller]

There’s only 2 good sides in the league.
Everyone else are just varying degrees of useless.

100 percent right there. I think 3rd and 4th are up for grabs, just a shame Emery will F things up like last season.

[Letters]

100 percent right there. I think 3rd and 4th are up for grabs, just a shame Emery will F things up like last season.

I actually fancy us for a top 4 position but only because I think the other likely candidates are about as inept if not more than us.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 FT.

Sky. :bow:

[Özim]

Spurs beaten by Leicester and Watford absolutely battered by City, both teams we couldn't beat in the last two games, just shows how poor Emery has been, particularly the Watford result, they played us off the park last week and should have won, then they get hammered 8-0 this week, embarrassing for them and us!

[Master Splinter]

Newcastle v Brighton seemed unmissable.

[GP]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ole's at the wheel. :haha:

[Thierrymon]

United have been awful. So devoid of quality.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 HT. :popcorn:

[Globalgunner]

United recently as a club have managed the almost impossible of having prime ingredients and still serving up thin gruel. SAF would take potatoes and Offal, mixed with some good spices and serve up Michelin 3 star grub.

Ole`s in the kitchen

[Thierrymon]

Dont worry they will just throw more money at their problems in the next window.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Palace 1-0 Wolves, Ward!

Wan-Bissaka and Maguire. :lol:

Four added minutes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mourinho in the studio. :lol:

:)

[Thierrymon]

How long will united persevere with Ole? I'd be amazed if he is still there by xmas.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

West Ham 2-0 Man Utd, FT!

I'll give it the full beans later but for now...

Ole. :haha:

Gary Neville. :haha:

Keane. :haha:

Agent Woodward. :bow:

[LDG]

Ole :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

https://youtu.be/X_e5gxuX5gI

[Master Splinter]

Ole :haha:.

Gunnar :haha:.

Solskjaer :haha:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Palace 1-1 Wolves, Jota in the end and FT.

Woy. :doh:

[Mac76]

Much as i hate Sky you've got to hand it to them for getting Sourness, Keane and Maureen in the same studio :lol:

[Letters]

https://youtu.be/X_e5gxuX5gI

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Captain Rubberlips. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 0-1 Liverpool, AA smashes in from Salah's lay-off on a freekick.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Awful tackle from Tomori on Henderson.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a chance for Tammy, puts it straight at Adrian.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-1 Liverpool, Azpilicueta!

Chaos in Liverpool's six yard box. :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Still 0-1.

Goal cancelled, VAR. Offside.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nope, disallowed for offside.

VAR at it again. :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

2-0 Firmino.

Maybe. There might have been an offside in the game last season.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

VAR destroys teams.

Lampsy. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool, Kante!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool, FT!

Honest Frank. :haha:

[Letters]

:sick:

Someone stop them!

[Marc Overmars]

Only City have managed to take 3 points off Liverpool in like a year. If City can't beat them this season I genuinely feel like they might be good enough to go unbeaten.

They're both so much better than everyone - the gap is even bigger than when ourselves and United were a shoe-in for the top 2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I don't think Liverpool will go unbeaten which I grant you is not much of a prediction but even accounting for them being possibly so much better than 18 other teams, I think December will be a problem for them having to factor in the Club World Cup.

Yet they are gash away in the CL. Teams in the EPL are scared just at the thought of playing them. Napoli are poor, yet beat them with little stress

[McNamara That Ghost...]

More importantly though:

Ole. :haha:

Fred the Red. :haha:

Fred the Red. :haha:

Anderson. :haha:

Bobby Charlton. :haha:

Rachel Riley. :haha:

Ah yeah I forgot about that. Plenty of scope for a slip-up there I suppose.

[Letters]

It's feeling a bit Rangers and Celtic.
No one else is any good.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ole "I know the character of the boys".

True. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Caragher and Keane are going at it. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Now Souness and Mourinho are. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bernardo Silva improving race relations just having a little jokey joke with Mendy.
