Instead of having a whole bunch of footie threads, perhaps we can have this one to cover all the footie games this season.

This weekend we saw the return of the English Premier League. I only watched Man Utd play, and what a great opening 20 minutes that turned out to be.

Pity about the deflection of Ferdinand, else we could have had a clean sheet.

Chelsea kicked some ass, and still seem to be the team to watch.

Hardies for Liverpool and Arsenal...

Gotta say though, that AIG logo on the Utd gear looks pretty lame... sad.gif
Heir_of_Isildur
OMG that logo is SO lame dry.gif

But it doesn't bother me as long as Man Utd stay on top for the rest of the season!
Fishfly
yeah that AIG is rather dull sad.gif

but Liverpool and arsenal ain't going to mount a challange with that kinda football they playing...

as for man utd lets hope this RIOT runs throughout the entire season w00t.gif

hunter
Who wants to put money on final standings tongue.gif

I'll slap R100 on Arsenal being above Man U tongue.gif
Surge
I'll take u on, hunter. biggrin.gif
hunter
Sweet smile.gif
Fishfly
wow hunter gonna loose this bet smile.gif

Damn, I guess I missed a good second half to Utd's game last night - 3 - 0 to them. biggrin.gif

And perhaps an even better second half missed for the Chelsea game, since Boro won 2-1. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif
Heir_of_Isildur
Yay! Man Utd... Woot!

Keep it up guys... 'cause Chelsea are still scaring me sad.gif
Fishfly

and even better now that Alan Smith is back to full training and reserve games, lets keep it going!!! devil2.gif

Woot. htf are Utd doing it?!?

eTV are a bunch of idiots... they reported:
"Barcelona and Chelsea are in the same group, offering a repeat of the Champions League final of 2006"... followed by a clip of the Arsenal vs Barca final... idiots.

I LOVE seeing- 17. Arsenal tongue.gif
Surge
So, it is 4/4 for Utd. Yeah! biggrin.gif

This week is also some Champions League action - looking forward to that as well naturally. biggrin.gif

Are the Liverpool fans still aching from the 3-0 hammering they got from Everton? tongue.gif

We got annihilated sad.gif
Surge
Well, I scare for me when Celtic scored first last night, but at least we got the points at the end of the night. Hopefully we will continue with the wins and not have the embarrasing exit we had in last year's Champions League.

Sunday is gonna be a good one against Arsenal in the Premiership. biggrin.gif
Surge
Met eish ja, met eish.

Sucks to have the 100% record gone now, but hey, Arsenal were the better team in the second half. Utd did some shoddy play and deserved to lose.
Heir_of_Isildur
... and Chelsea take the lead dry.gif

Reading... OMG
Surge
Well, at least we won in the Champions League last night. Sadly, due to a fuggered/fatigued brain, I missed the match. sad.gif
hunter
worrying about yr bet yet lobo...

tongue.gif
Surge
Hell no! I know that Man Utd will bounce back - better than Arsenal. biggrin.gif
Fishfly
arsenal still gonna be behind man utd all the way smile.gif
Surge
Ah, thanks Chelsea for the draw you got this weekend - gave us the chance to move back to the top, where we belong... biggrin.gif

Man, wtf is up with Liverpool?

nothing, we always have these issues dry.gif

Especially against Bolton and Charlton sad.gif
Heir_of_Isildur
Aston Villa are looking quite good, and I'm glad they managed to drag a point out of Chelsea in London!
Surge
Chelsea wins, Man Utd eventually clinched the points, and still, based on goal difference, we are at the top.

Arsenal has a point in hand, but even a win is not gonna be enough to go to the top, hunter. tongue.gif
Fishfly
arsenal has a point in hand???

lets just hope giggys will be fit enough for tomorrow's CL match!
Surge
QUOTE

Err... I meant GAME in hand. sad.gif
Surge
Ahh... what a way for Rooney ti break his 10-game drought, by scoring that lovely hat-trick on Saturday. Good show from Utd overall, considering that it was said that they would have a tough battle on their hands.

Heir_of_Isildur
Yeah, Utd picked their game up for that encounter biggrin.gif

Funny how things go... everyone expected a difficult match for Utd and Arsenal to WHIP Everton ("Oh, Arsenal *orgasms* are playing the best footbal in the prmiership") and lookie what happened tongue.gif
Surge
Yeah, but I just want Arsenal to play their game in hand soon, so that I can start seeing if I MIGHT have to keep R100 on the side for hunter. tongue.gif
hunter
might? MIGHT

its a given!

though my current run on sports bettign aint going to well sad.gif
Surge
I think that I might become a Spurs supporter. tongue.gif

After Chelsea scored the opening goal, I reckoned that it was all over for Spurs, but what a comback for Spurs. Good game, and best of all, Man Utd is 3 points clear of Chelsea now... biggrin.gif

And on another note, hunter, what you think about Arsenal's match? tongue.gif
hunter
Its all a plan to make you overconfident...

sad.gif

I'm thinking its time for me to give up on the sports betting tongue.gif

Rossi lost world championship, 5k down the drain
Panthers are 4-4 in NFL, I had them pegged to win division. 1k down the drain
Arsenal, well lets not go there...

Oh oh I reckon I must give Mill the R100 to hold for me coz I am out of here in Jan tongue.gif
millennia
lol, yeah sure tongue.gif

QUOTE

Confirmed now?
hunter
Yeah, last day at work 11 Jan, fly out 16th or 17th
millennia
oooo, there's a weekend in between. Party? tongue.gif
hunter
Damn skippy tongue.gif
Surge
Yowza, that is quite a bit to lose on betting, hunter... That's why i will rather stick to the low-level bets - i hate losing money. tongue.gif
hunter
Yeah well got to take the risks tongue.gif

The odds I had on Rossi were 8 - 1, I place the bet when he was 51 points behind.

Last race he had fought back to be 8 points in the lead, I was already spending the money tongue.gif

Then he crashed sad.gif

Oh well he came back from 51 points down to lose by only 5, still the best racer ever

Panthers? oh well sad.gif

I lost 5k during the world cup too sad.gif
millennia
Eish, stop posting, this is like the 4th time today that i've been to chill tongue.gif New record!

Hope you didn't fall for all the England hype tongue.gif Never ever bet on England...

Are the yanks gonna let you in seeing as you have this gambling problem? laugh.gif
hunter
Problem? WHAT PROBLEM

There is no problem, I just don't win sad.gif

millennia
Should give it up as a bad idea then tongue.gif

Back on topic though, Enjoy the Liverpool win? We finally seem to have found a proper striker biggrin.gif
Fishfly
A proper Striker as in Kuyt???

you gotta be kidding tongue.gif

Geez hunter you shoulda taken my advice on the WC smile.gif pity I didn't throw my salary into that bet... coulda won a hefty sum with italy and all w00t.gif

As for Man Utd Keep up the good form... pity they lost mid-week due to Fergie playing the subs away from home sad.gif
millennia
5 in his last 6 ain't bad tongue.gif
Surge
Bleh. A draw was what some would say a fair result for the Man Utd / Chelsea game, but obviouslya win for Utd woulda been better. But at least we are still ahead of Chelsea on the log.

Gotta say thanks to Arsenal for getting me ever closer to being R100.00 richer. tongue.gif
cyfermaster
Man U didn't deserve a point the way they played in the second half. Was actually pathetic watching them be run over like that, after they played so well in the first.

I think that Arsenal are playing the best football, although the results don't show it at the moment. This is a side to watch for sure, and especially next year. biggrin.gif

But didn't the Arsenal supporters say that last year as well? tongue.gif
cyfermaster
I have no idea. I am not one of them, so not sure what they said. My comments are purely based on my viewing of the matches, and are unbiased.
Surge
Well, thaks for nothing Arsenal. The ONE time that you actually have my support, and you get a draw against Chelsea... but at least the gap only came down a little between Chelsea and Utd. Now Chelsea just need to get their games up to date, so that the log can look more definitive...
cyfermaster
Well..... a draw is better than Chelsea winning Lobo.... and Chelsea almost did get the win...
