Football 2013/14 continued

[Queneau]

Due to the previous thread being locked, here is a place to carry on slagging off Suarez and moaning about refereeing decisions.

For good measure, here is a picture of Ali Dia:

Here's the traditional first-page image of CaB's spiritual footballing home:

I wonder if this will include any actual talk about the football rather than the drama surrounding it? It's like fucking WWFE[nb]Yeah, Pandas fucked you right up, you leotard dickholes.[/nb] sometimes.

luton town legend mick harford, scorer of 92 goals in 216 appearances

Is there evidence of anti-Uruguayan bias prior to Suarez? I have never heard of it as a thing before. If only we could get a diving, cheating, biting, racist phrase saying Englishman to use as a litmus test. Joey Barton is the nearest I can think of and we all know what an easy ride he gets in the press.

[the midnight watch baboon]

Adebayor watch today. Gonna play like he has for the last month or like he did at the Emruts last season and overexcite himself (!) and get redded by the ref, to a cacophony (shit-sound) of people who think it correct to wear bright red shirts in public. 5-2 to them haircuts then. If not then maybe:

I reckon a draw, with us finishing off the Arse at the Lane.
Other musings:
Paul Lambert is an unsmiling flobflamflimmer these days.
Pellegrini is definitely mobbed up.
Dan Castellaneta is a Prem ref.
Eden Hazard is Dwight's cousin off of Office.
Lallana is a bit S Magowany.

aka '50p Head'.

Really looking forward to Arsenal v Spurs later.
Will both put out full strength sides? Adebayor to come back to haunt the Emirates?

Also, I'd like to see Everton put a hatful past QPR this afnoon.

Possible 'cupsets' - Coventry away at Barnsley, Burnley away at Southampton.

Lambert can swivel on that, *extends middle finger*, I love the FA Cup

Edited to include picture of a legend-

5-0 against the Toon today, Don Cowie hat-trick.

[phes]

really hope that Caught Offside made-up story about Redknapp J being wanted by Sherwood at Spurs isn't a fackin owd load o' pony. Would laaaaaaaaarve it.

Steve Bruce. Man or machine?

[onthebeach]

I remember when a guy said Bruce looked like the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2:

Steve Bruce. Man or machine?

I think it's more 'The Lost Boys - 30 year's later':

"It's blood Wesley!"

[phes]

I remember when a guy said Bruce looked like the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2:

My Dad hung a door for Brenda Fricker. Word got around after that. Think he hung one for Charlie Fairhead at the height of his fame. Rad

No Cup streams? I mean, it's beneath my team but still.

[buntyman]

I've noticed a recent surge in the use of the phrase 'to a man' to describe a collective team effort. I hate it. Malky Mackay used to say it all the time so I can see why Vincent Tan got rid of him.

[Morrison Lard]

Good job the cup's not worth bothering with, eh, Paul..

Clattenburg is a nasty piece of work. I will always maintain that he had some stake in a Leeds - Cardiff match years back where he sent off two Cardiff players for no reason, only booked a Leeds player for handling the ball on the goal-line and generally making ridiculous decisions in Leeds favour. The funny thing is Cardiff still won somehow.

[Queneau]

Good job the cup's not worth bothering with, eh, Paul..

Good to see them check the spelling of Ciaran's name. Oh, and well done for the assist Clark.

EDIT: It has been checked now.

[Queneau]

Good to see one of our strikers score (for another team).

[doppelkorn]

I remember when a guy said Bruce looked like the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2:

Ably played by Randy Quaid, it seems.

[doppelkorn]

Steve Bruce. Man or machine?

He's demonstrating how much respect he still has for Alex Ferguson ("tons") which is why he has always told the teams he manages never to beat United. That's what actually happens in real life.

[Unoriginal]

Sounds like another cracker at Villa Park.

Almost certainly not a euphemism. Won't stop me pretending it is.

[Unoriginal]

Papiss Cisse for fucks sake.

[Morrison Lard]

Hyde are losing, again. 3-0.

In other news - Jelavic has scored!?! Blimey.

[boki]

THE NUGE.[nb]Not Ted[/nb]
Can they do it at Stoke on a wet Saturday[nb]probably not[/nb]?

[Morrison Lard]

Jelavic has scored!?!

Twice now!

I'd like to see Everton put a hatful past QPR this afnoon.

Looking very much on the cards! Come on Nik!

[Eis Nein]

In like Flynn.

Wigan got £40.8m for finishing 18th last season and £1.8m for winning the cup.
