  1. Probably the same as a few Utd players, a burning hatred of Van Gaal and his "philosophy" that's ruining that club and it's players.
  2. Ah no, I think you'll find upon checking that we had a fair few gates under 15000 in the relegation season and maybe one or two under 14000. I went to a game when the place was over half empty and the atmosphere was like a morgue. Sheffield Utd maybe. Could ba an average of about 18000 for that season I suppose.
  3. First friendly starts soon doesn't it, Monday maybe ? Good job there's some cricket, this surely must be the first ever non-wartime Easter with no top flight football. I remember the old 3 games in 4 days Easter format with a few promotion and relegation issues being decided already.
  4. No longer on the suspended list, our appeal must have been successful then.
  5. Aren't they all, where would Paula Radcliffe be without her asthma medications. All top sports people have medication that helps them in some way or other even if it's for some minor ailment.
  6. Next season isn't it?
  7. Stephens and Turnbull go out on loan because they're now over the age for the U21s per se and aren't good enough for the first team. Don't really know why people keep harping on about them.
  8. Fans won't like it though, it probably means sacrificing 2 out of 4 competitions in the very early stages. Leicester are doing well for a reason, well several actually, decent players including 2 outrageous goalscorers, good manager, hardly any injuries, few internationals and only one competition to play for in the months beyond January.
  9. The title being won with less points than is usual is probably an effect of the increased finances coming into every club in the league. There are no longer any really dominant clubs and an unbeaten season such as Arsenal's in 2004 will probably not be seen again unless for some reason football loses a lot of TV income and goes back to what it was 10 years ago.
  10. Probably because the bookies made him a take it or leave it offer and the sum would probably diminish if they lose a game. I looked at them yesterday and whilst Watford we just dire in attack you kind of got the impression that anyone with anything realistic up front would see Leicester off with little trouble...mind you it's been like that all season really and they're still up there.
  11. Wise choice really, they really aren't that great just now, mind you they keeping on winning 1-0 I suppose.. If the Arse and Spurs (potentially) both go out of Europe this week then I wouldn't give a great deal for Leicester's chances of finishing top. Their games against West Ham, Saints ,Chelsea and Utd will decide their fate.
  12. Borini was past Fonte and heading for goal, Fonte wrestled him back by pulling his shirt and bear hugging him as he so often does, how anyone can dispute that the red card was outed I just can't see.
  13. Wasn't harsh, it's the standard punishment for dragging back a player who's through on goal.
  14. Not sure, might only be one for a preventing a goal chance foul.
  15. Good comeback in additional time.
  16. That would be the King Rufus in Eling I think.
  17. Mosul is in Iraq so we'll count that as the Middle East in general shall we. It is also a bit of an IS stronghold so perhaps it getting washed away wouldn't displease everyone.
  18. At one time the you could reckon on the very best players earning roughly double the average industrial wage. Imagine earning 150K£ a week in a factory nowadays.
  19. Saints don't pay Sneijder type salaries. I'll put him down for a West Ham type signing.
  20. But we're a fair few points worse off than we were after 28 games last season I think (9 perhaps ?). We didn't finish last season at all well though so there is still some hope of roughly equalling last season's performance.
  21. I'd doubt if Utd are really all that interested, there will be far better players available next summer than Mané. Haven't they already done some sort of deal for Felipé Anderson ? Utd aren't really big buyers of Africans either.
  22. Tough game, result unpredictable.
  23. Not sure that he can be accused of not trying, he looks so entirely predictable though and defenders always seem to be able to guess pretty accurately what he's intending to do.
  24. I think his head is elsewhere.
