And where is everyone? First day of the PL season and so many fans are missing from here

Fair result for us both in the circs I think Veggie. Yes his tackle wasn't good, but he didn't deserve to be stamped on either. Was Song goading him wanting him to be sent off knowing his temprament? 

Think there was something last year that happened between Barton and Diaby... so I don't think Arsenal players had forgotten about it.

 

 

Piers Morgan & Barton are really at it on twitter at the moment

Piers Morgan to@JoeyBarton:  "Do me a favour. You went down like Tom Daley off the high board."

 

 

 

Something tells me this one aint gonna end soon... just waiting on a Mr Alan Sugar to have his say as usual

Oh, Robbie Savage is also at it with Barton...

Barton was a disgrace. You expect the nastiness and the winding up but the way he kept throwing himself to the floor a la Drogba was the final straw for me.

Think I might get into him on Twitter too

I can't get tweets to load for piers, robbie or barton - apparently the system is overloaded pmsl

Suarez with the card waving

season starts for us tomorrow........can't wait...

 

barton is a knob twonk.....though song should've been sent off for the stamp.....however the way barton keeled over from the girly slap he got was pathetic...i'm sure he managed to stay on his feet when smacking the living daylights out of someone on the streets of liverpool a few years back...

 

suarez card waving......don't like to see it.... his penalty was awful though...

I don't understand twitter but if Joey Barton has upset Piers Morgan they should make him England Captain. He is a pantomime dame of the highest order.

..... Otherwise Emnes has now scored 5! We beat dirty Leeds though TBF they only had two men sent off, and St Pauli are top of the League!

He's looking good Joe, great start for him.

 

I'm off to watch our Ladies later, two matches to go and if we win both then we should have the league again. Been a really strange season for our Ladies. There's no doubt that the new WSL is much more competitive than the old league (we've been beaten twice, which is unheard of) but I don't like the moving of the season to through the summer and the breaks for internationals etc.

Hmmm... not sure if a point at Stoke is a good result or not for Chelsea. Survived a first-half onslaught from the home side and dominated the second-half but very few clear chances were created. I would hope that with Torres, Kalou, Malouda, Lampard, Anelka and Drogba all used; that  one of them would hit the net at some point during 95 minutes play!

 

Torres was excellent throughout btw...

Utd's keeper looks like money well spent  

Ferdinand and Vidic both injured!

agree about torres.....his best game for us by a mile......kalou and malouda were anonymous.....think we had a decent penalty shout or two....but that's the way it goes...sometimes you get them sometimes you don't..

 

i'm not too disappointed..i'd have settled for a point before the game...the big plus has to be torres..hopefully he can build on that

Welllll... judging by the first weekend, the Premier League isn't showing any signs of becoming less shit than it was last season. Having attended Newcastle v Arsenal last night, what a horrible horrible game of football that was. I'm really starting to lose interest in the Premier League. It's been absolute dog shite for a good couple of years now and I was hoping this season might be different but early signs aren't good. Hopefully Man City v Swansea City might give a bit of hope.

 

 

Torres did look very sharp today I have to say. A summer of rest appears to have done him the world of good.

ferdinand out for up to 6 weeks with a hamstring injury.......rafael up to 10 weeks after dislocating his shoulder in training..he requires an op......no news on vidic yet

The German papers are suggesting that Götze is on his way to Machester United. I wonder if TSAF knows about this?

About two weeks I heard

Neville gets a job.

Yeah stick Aguero on.

Crunch game at the reebok next week then. 1st v 2nd....

GOD.

aguero.....................pleased for dzeko too.....looks like he's finally settling....wonder where that leaves balotelli though?

Who cares?

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty amusing seeing the likes of Aguero, Silva and Y.Toure sharing a pitch with Gareth Barry... they must be pissing themselves.

do you think they'll try and shift him meaty?....balotelli that is not barry!!!....aguero was fantastic...him and silva are spot on already

Blimey! That's Emnes' sixth goal of the season!

ha ha, Ipswich 2-5 Southampton

Now I know that you don't support Southampton, so a bit of schadenfreude in my opinion.

I discovered a great new term btw. Sauregurkenzeit, german for Silly Season.

petr cech out for 3-4 weeks...........just what we need... hilarious in goal!!

Oh jebus not Hilarious! 

fraid so jensen......turnbull wasn't on the bench sunday hilarious was......so looks like he'll be in............i'd play with 10 defenders the next few weeks............

Could really start rolling out the big guns this weekend... Tevez was training this morning along side the 11 that started against Swansea. Possibility that Tevez, Aguero and Silva will start together.

I was surprised to see Nasri start for Arsenal today (he had a decent game imo) - have talks between Man City and Arsenal broken down now?

Alfreton Town 1:  Forest Green Rovers 6 !!!!!!! 

 

Am happy

Apprently talks on Nasri have broken down over agents fees! Dunno how Veggie can moan about teams like Stoke and the way they play when Arsenal Have such dirty players. Two red cards in two weeks? Today's should have been a straight red, not a 2nd yellow. I know Arsenal where quite high up in the foul league last season, looks like this season is going to follow suit. ION Millwall lost their first match today

ha ha, Peterboro 7-1 Ipswich

Ipswich have shipped 12 goals in 4 days - that's woeful!

 

we were awful today.......very lucky to get a win.....wba deserved a point..

 

shane long is going to be a nuisance for many defenders this season i think......could be a real bargain..

 

we're meant to be playing attacking football under andre village people........yet so many times today we were slow to get the ball forward and just passed it around midfield
