FA Cup Replay Boro - Blades

mike65 · 2008-02-27 20:59:16

Wot no thread? After a scrappy opening 20 its settled down with Boro playing all the football, Alves looks very handy at times. Downing doing well should have scored and if Boro could head they'd be 3 up anyway. Mike.

Hoping Sheff Utd win so I can act all smug when the tabloids lead with "Blades of Glory" tomorrow. I predicted that headline last time out but the fcukers only drew 0-0 so it wouldn't have really worked. Tonights the night though.

i think you're giving them too much credit Pighead. If they win, I predict "Blades put Boro to the sword" or something to that effect.

I think we're both giving them too much credit actually Rebel. They'll probably end up going for something like
"Sheff Utd scrape through in turgid non event"

Right I've finally settled for my headline. I've plumped for
"Baddy Kenny gets shit kicked out of him by irate teammates after farcical OG"
http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00232/ed_imgSNN1627E3G_54_232399a.jpg

Ok it mightn't be the snappiest headline in the world but the picture gives it a certain je ne sais quoi.

Saddy Paddy and Calamity Kenny were the actual headlines in the end. Both rubbish if you ask me. They're just not putting in th eeffort anymore.
