Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 1:12pm

Crouch to score today.
Hate it when Arsenal are playing Bolton - bogey team.

whiskeyman · 03-12-2005 1:55pm

Newcastle Vs Villa is the biggie today.
Might well see odds of next Ireland manager shake up depending on this result

I feel Newcastle need this win more than Villa though.

Strongly think the boro will get the better of Chelsea today... off to the bookies I go

mike65 · 03-12-2005 2:00pm

Morientes and Crouch are going for the same ball.

Mike.

whiskeyman · 03-12-2005 2:04pm

Crouchy!!!!!!!!!

24Hrs 8mins!!!!
Massive deflected shot... might even go down as own goal! lol!
Worth the wait

mike65 · 03-12-2005 2:05pm

Crouch scores (with a deflection but who cares??????????)

Mike.

zAbbo · 03-12-2005 2:06pm

Crouchy come on, big deflection, and the keep flaps it into the net

MrJoeSoap · 03-12-2005 2:09pm

O.G. lads, the bet is still safe!

mchurl · 03-12-2005 2:11pm

fair play to the big man!!

mike65 · 03-12-2005 2:19pm

Aghhh! Nearly 2-0, Crouch setting Gerrard up, keeper just got a hand to it.

Mike.

MrJoeSoap · 03-12-2005 2:26pm

If that goal isn't given as an own-goal, the "Dubious Goals Committee" should be renamed the "Dubious Dubious Goals Committee".

whiskeyman · 03-12-2005 2:27pm

2nd for Crouch!! great goal!!
Anyone have €€ for a hat-trick here?

mike65 · 03-12-2005 2:27pm

Crouch DOES score this time!

2-0 yeeeeeeeeees!

Lemlin · 03-12-2005 2:28pm

How did he celebrate? I'd say he lost the head, wouldn't blame him.

MrJoeSoap · 03-12-2005 2:29pm

I'm sure the keeper got a touch to the second goal. OG surely???

I'm listening not watching but I understand he ran the length of the pitch!

Sure it only takes him a few strides

Ronan|Raven · 03-12-2005 2:44pm

He nearly made it as far as the Kop, much to the relief of the people in it he didnt jump in!

Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 2:44pm

Crouch to score today.

Love it when im right.

mike65 · 03-12-2005 2:52pm

Ohhhh nearly 3-0.

Mike.

kaimera · 03-12-2005 2:54pm

w00t!

mike65 · 03-12-2005 3:04pm

Wigan showing some determination, decent shot at goal.

Kewell off, Riise on.

Alonso replaced by Hamann

Expect to see Cisse for Nando soon.

Mike.

KdjaCL · 03-12-2005 3:13pm

Wigan playing very well now, ah well 3-0

kdjac

mike65 · 03-12-2005 3:14pm

Luis Garcia!

3-0 all over now.

Mike.

Royale with Cheese · 03-12-2005 3:15pm

Wow, gotta hand it to the pool. When was the last time they conceded a goal? Even Crouch is scoring now. Perhaps 2nd place is on this year?

Ronan|Raven · 03-12-2005 3:20pm

Great save by the wigan keeper from a gerrard freekick.

zAbbo · 03-12-2005 3:21pm

And we're into 2nd place, albeit for a few hours, how many clean sheets is it now?

mike65 · 03-12-2005 3:25pm

Liverpool last conceed a goal against Fulham in the league and against Crystal Palace in all competition, which is 644 mins as I type this.

Mike.

Ronan|Raven · 03-12-2005 3:27pm

Morientes should have made it 4 a very bad miss.

mike65 · 03-12-2005 3:36pm

Well that'll do nicely. The game is featured on The Premiership tonight and I look forward to Giles, Brady etc suggest we were just okay again.

Mike.

galwaydude · 03-12-2005 3:46pm

Long live the pool, 2nd place for the next few hours at least.Role on boro next saturday and then yet another trophy.

Dont forget ray houghton saying how 3-0 isnt enough and how chelsea, arsenal and united would of stuck 6 past em

.

kaimera · 03-12-2005 4:23pm

bolton 1-0 Arsenal

19 mins.

Davei141 · 03-12-2005 4:25pm

Arsenal players seem to be losing their heads, i can see a full team scuffle before the end of this.

Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 4:30pm

Bolton must be our biggest bogey team, every time we play them doesn't matter what form we have going into the game- trouble.

Davei141 · 03-12-2005 4:35pm

Yeah, bolton 2-0.

Lemlin · 03-12-2005 4:37pm

Bolton are alot of team's bogey fixture.

Pigman II · 03-12-2005 4:39pm

I think Cygan is probably a wonderful human being but he's a poor excuse for a footballer.

Lemlin · 03-12-2005 4:41pm

Blackburn losing to Everton with Andy Todd sent off, just when the team were improving their disciplinary record. Anyone know what he did?

Sunderland are drawing with Spurs 1-1 and Shearer put Newcastle one up with a penalty too.

Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 4:42pm

Lemlin- Bolton more then others seem to be able to beat Arsenal tho. Remember back in the day when even Jim Magilton and Co, for Bolton could beat us.

Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 4:48pm

arteta - just made it 2-0

Roddy23 · 03-12-2005 4:58pm

if we sub off Cygan, and let Eboue come in, and switch Lauren over to the left, I could see a comeback. Leaving Cygan on = disaster.
Although Cygan isn't the worst he does spread trouble.

mike65 · 03-12-2005 4:59pm

Dreadfull from Arsenal, to quote Corporal Jones "they dont like it up 'em!". Bolton seem to be quicker in thought and deed nearly every time.

Sunderland score goal shocker.

Mike.

Pigman II · 03-12-2005 5:15pm

RTE : "We apologise for the loss of commentary"

... in which case I'll be expecting them to apologise again when it returns!

kaimera · 03-12-2005 5:26pm

Chelsea 1-0 'boro [og]

Its being given to Terry in some places.

eirebhoy · 03-12-2005 5:34pm

Duff had a quiet first half, Mourinho lets him off the leash in the 2nd and he is beating players with ease. Took an excellent corner for Terry's goal and set it up on a plate for Drogba after making his way into the penalty box. Let him free permanently Jose!

Keane and Mido set up each other to score Spurs both goals. Looks like they're gelling as a partnership.

Pigman II · 03-12-2005 5:42pm

I don't suppose Kevin Davies has any Irish in him? I'd take him and Nolan as a pair if we could get them. Trundle can come along too and do keepy-uppys at half-time if he likes.

MrJoeSoap · 03-12-2005 5:44pm

1626: A classic, old-school "shinner". Damien Duff torments Boro down the right and drags the ball back for Didier Drogba who is left looking for that imaginary divot as the ball balloons into the stand.

From BBC

Davei141 · 03-12-2005 6:43pm

United 1-0 up.

growler · 03-12-2005 7:13pm

duffer played the best football i've seen of him this year, outstanding form and a real handful for boro. Fair play to boro though, they were one of the hardest teams to play against, chased every ball and always looked dangerous. Chelsea's shooting was abysmal though, could easily have been 5-0.

Nice to see the gooners lose , shame Sunderland let spurs get the 3 points though.
