Greed...

Don't get me started on the World Cup again.    How the hell a country with no tradition got the competition and we ended up with the fecking Olympics instead of the other way around, I will never understand.The sooner Europe pulls out and has an extra competion the better.Meanwhile.... Come on the Barcodes.

What Joe said*    

*Well apart from the barcodes bit. I shall remain neutral in deference to the Baggies and Toon fans here :sitting on the fence smiley
Evening everyone

I'm not, Veggie  Hi everyone

Hiya Onetoo
Just listening to the match on the radio, sounds mad
Bet you, Joe and the Pinkalicious one are biting nails

Yep, it's getting a bit heated

there's a new show starting tonight at 11.35 on BBC1
Late Kick Off 
 
about the weekends action in your region, i'm not sure if it involves premier league though, but i'll have a look.

2-2 decent result for both sides.

Au contraire! That's two points dropped in my book. We really need to get our big team back in the top flight.
Meanwhile more exciting news from OT

Sullivan, Gold et al and West Ham are a match made in dodgy dealing heaven...

Oh yes. Wonder if Hammers fans will call Sullivan 'Porno-dwarf', like we Villa fans did?

Afternoon all

What a brilliant match last night, end to end stuff, I was biting my nails I can tell you!!  Even had to go and hide on FB for a time as was so nervous!!  Well played Newcastle, and hope for as good a match on Saturday.  We played really well and Olsen was my MOM.  A couple of small things let us down, Carson for the second goal, prefer Kiely TBH and Miller's miss, but to be fair he is still coming back from injury.

I was caught out by the beeb liveprinter last night , it wasn't updating after the baggies first goal, so i assumed they were winning until about 2 minuted to go.   I was amazed it had been 2-2 for so long when I checked the match fact,  Still a good point Pinky, Although, I do have a soft spot for Forest, and would like to see them in the Prem,

It was really good RZB watched the match on Sky and was really impressed.

I have a soft spot for Forest as well, going back to the Cloughie days, but find their current manager hard to like, of course that could be because he was the Derby manager who beat us in the Play off final!!

I think it was 2 points lost for us, we just could not hold the lead, every time we scored instead of sitting on the goals and playing slightly safer, we were trying to get another goal which makes for exciting viewing, but hell if you support the team.  Still a point back on Forest and a game in hand, (the Blackpool one) so not too bad really

Glad Gold Sullivan took over West Ham they will sort the club out and even better Karren Brady is coming also.


Yes hoping Forest go up or in the play offs.

Yeah, me too Pink. We'll have to see if we can take it off you this time           What a goal by Guthrie  

Just got back from Elland Road.

TWO ONE!! We beat the scum 2-1!! we beat the scum 2-1, we beat the scum 2-1. TWOOO ONEEEE!!


Ksara sara, whatever will be will be, we're going to Wember-ley, ksara sara

Next time keep it shut Gary Chuckle

You're coming to Fortress Hawthorns though OneTwo,   but well played on Monday, it was an excellent game and a really good advert for the Championship.  I can't see that anyone who saw the match was not entertained by it, even if for the fans it was hell to watch, such an open and attacking game by both sides.  Really hope Saturday's game is just as good.

ION Sol Campbell is suing Portsmouth for  1.7 million pounds for fees and bonus's during his time there.  Talk about kicking a club when it is down, if the bloke is owed it fair enough, but does he really think this is going to help them in their current situation?

You may also have noticed that Darlo won last night.

Blackburn 2-0, now 2-1 on aggregate to them...

Away goals count don't they? Meaning Villa would need at least 2 to avoid defeat...

EDIT: Robot wars man says they don't count till after extra time... which makes no sense.

Liverpool have scored against Spurs in the League match Kuyt

Holy... we have a penalty for 2-0... watch it hit row z...

Edit... Scored...

2-1 Villa scored.

2-0

2-1... Jussi half asleep...

What a joke... blatant foul by Gallas in the build up... not given... 2-2.

It's a horror challenge, the kind Arsenal are supposedly above committing...

Mark Davies.... who had been having an absolute stormer... carried off.

3-2 to Arsenal now... after that farcical decision, I really don't care. So if tackles like that are allowed, we might as well start living up to the stereotype and get some vengeance...

Well done Villa nearly there.

5-4

4-2 Arsenal, Andrey Arshavin.

I've no doubt there will be comments of 'well you play hard so you deserve a little back', but there's a difference between playing hard and a potential career ending challenge.

And it's not the first from an Arsenal player on a Bolton player. Diaby's done it twice before as well.

Meanwhile, Arsenal fans have spent the last 3 days complaining that Fabregas had his hair pulled on Sunday. This should give an insight into what they're talking about when they call Bolton dirty...

Arsenal were brilliant on Sunday and their class showed.  Its a pity they have to resort to Ronaldoesque dives and complaints to the ref and fourth official until they feel bullied into making wrong decisions.  Oh well, I suppose we just have to know our place

there will be some fun over this tackle in the next few days,
pish poor interview from Wenger again.

Doubt it will go unnoticed, but don't worry... Adebayor will be hacking at each and every single one of them in April

More whining from Allardyce about the little nudge during our first goal last night, which was apparently to blame for them losing over two legs. 

Apparently, "these things don't even themselves out", blahblahblah..
Conveniently forgetting that they still had 11 men at the time. And also forgetting the TWO clear penalties that we should have had in the first leg at their place. Bellend..

I don't believe this, the FA are not going to take any action against Gallas...

The whole system is corrupt.

In my experience if you play any of the teams from Lancashire begining with a B and you finish the game with all your players in one piece then you've done pretty well.
