    No but Sky have the cheek to show The Reunion starring John Cena on sky premier this week, if it wasn't for older films i'd barely even watch sky movies these days.

    I enjoyed the reunion!

    It was harmless.

    If City don't win it better be at least a great match. Swansea will roll over.

    When is the last time there was so much on the line on the last day?

    Assuming United win, they and City will be going head to head for the title. Arsenal, spurs, Newcastle and Chelsea (assuming they beat Liverpool) are still battling it out for the other two top four spots while we have four or five teams that can still be relegated.

    Villa safe now unless they conceed like 18 goals on the last day. Still cant wait till we sack that fucfellah McLeish though.

    Utd - Scholes, take the lead.

    Eck has to go. As a casual Birmingham fan I do admit he did what he could with them but he has destroyed Villa. That's a side that should at worst be 10th-12th.

    think he will be mutually consented soon myself. Maybe he will have a go at relegating West Brom or Wolves next


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    If you could relegate Wolves from the Championship that's a genuine skill. Can see Bolton become the new Boro if they're relegated but Blackburn IMO will likely be in freefall mode if Hoilett leaves and could b be the new Charlton.

    once Villa dont stay the new villa or atleast become the newer McLeishless Villa I dont mind.

    I could see the teams who go down this year struggling to bounce back though, championship isnt as easy as some might think especially if a lot of your players dont want to be at a championship club (players stupidly seem to stop thinking playing well is there best way out of there sometimes). Some big clubs potentially coming up too. Would like to see Southampton doing well personally as I lived with a guy from there who is at most games and to me they are still a name I associaste with being a top flight side.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Looks like the title is Citys to lose, didn't see a minute of it cause I was ignoring cruddy Dora, Peppa Pig & Mickey Mouse all day. Hope the Milan Derby is some good for me tonite & juve draw again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,528 ✭✭✭glenjamin


    Poor Bolton. 2 minutes to go and they're 2-1 up with QPR drawing 0-0 with Stoke. Then in a matter of minutes Cisse hits the winner for QPR and WBA equalize despite being 2-0 down and Bolton go from almost being safe to being in a hell of a lot of trouble. I like Coyle and I like Bolton, would much rather see QPR or Wigan go down instead.

    If don't mind either Reading or Southampton going up but Blackpool going up would make my year.

    HATE IT when there's no PPV the Sunday night before a Bank Holiday Monday, seems like such a waste :mad:

    Back when I was in school, it was ALWAYS the week before or the week after. Never the actual week of the Bank Holiday.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    A chicken on the pitch has been the early highlight of Blackburn vs Wigan hope it doesn't open up a twitter account like the Anfield Cat(who might aswell be up for player of the year for us too).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Wigan will never be relegated. They may fool you in December but they'll survive it like zombies in awful jerseys.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63

    The amount of crap in the league helps too. Blackburn were terrible tonite they never looked like taking control of the game & deserve to go down. And I was hoping to see the fans chase Kean down the tunnel & get him!

    I think Wigan just pretend to be crap for the first three quarters of the season because they enjoy the relegation battle so much.

    Remember the tallafornia swipe lads? (whaddyamean, no?!) well they're back with more swipes.
    This one in particular has an excellent wwe reference at around the 2.10 mark.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Chelsea were totally pathetic tonite not bad enough that Downing would score mind. Suppose I should be happier with that result but the season has been a total failure & I just can't come out of it feeling happy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Di Matteo better start praying they win the Champions League if he wants to stay in charge next season.

    Falcao is a Beast, think Bilbao need a loan of Andy Carroll ;-D

    Blackpool Birmingham is getting very exciting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Blackpool were 3-0 up on aggregate. Now it's 3-2 with 15 to go. No away goals rule.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63

    Atletico are 3-0 up a result that says to me that Athletic froze on the nite & that a few players there MUST stick around there to gain more experience before moving on. Hope the winner of Blackpool or Birmingham beat West Ham.

    Damn lads, airport goodbyes are extremely tough to do aren't they, completely forgotten how hard they are. Mate of mine heading back to Ireland, might be many a year til I see him again :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    They are. A large portion of my circle of friends went on to greener pastures overseas.
    On the plus side, we live in a time where instant communication is available in the form of skype and facebook. Its not perfect, but its something. :o

    Good riddance to this season as a liverpool fan the only high at the end is the new retro kit which does look nice.
    Poor Diabhal stuck here, she is gone for the work/money I presume.

    I think it's been a fairly ****e and boring season all round really. I'll watch the Euro's but I'll probably phase watching soccer out of my life from next season.

    I hope the euros are some good the last world cup was very, very poor imo. I don't want to say its been terrible this year at the risk of sounding bitter but it hasn't been a great season in the premiership + we could finish 8th.

    I think I could die of the heat in dubai. My thick head of hair would have to go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    I'm in beamount hosp at the moment with the gf. She's gonna be residential here for a week or so. and then regularly every few weeks.
    She was told she would be in a ward so we were expecting like 8 beds all with curtains between and one 12 inch telly for everyone.
    Came up and she has a private room, personal telly and all that jazz. Wifi too with a little hotshot thing from o2.

    Not bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    sorry to hear about your gf. That's great news about the room! But now she has no excuse when you bring the week's wrestling shows with u lol

    Exactamondo. :) If only there was sky sports i would be setting up camp in the ensuite!
    Yeah overall it does suck, means another 3 months or so with a stem cell transplant at the end of it. But that should be the end of it then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    LOL just thinking if they did have Sky Sports there. You'd be like "aw I've got this chesty cough! coughcoughcough"....I'd better stay in for a week - Be a dear and bring me tea & toast, and the remote! :pac:

    Decided to give Alcatraz a miss since it's been cancelled. (In unrelated news, I free'd up 15GB on my HDD). Have you been watching Game of Thrones?

    Seriously? I was waiting for the season to end before watching them. Did the season get to finish or was it cut off then and there?

    Oddly, I free'd up space on my HDD too. Nearly 400GB! And no, it wasnt porn! That has its own HDD ;)

    It finished up about 2 months (?) ago and then during this week fox cancelled it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    How do u know my porn is on a separate hard drive! lol

    I asked around and although the show itself is good, they left on a ton of unanswered questions, they'll never get to answer them, so it's useless starting it now.

    What...shows/movies... are you no longer watching? :P

    I remember when Reaper got cancelled, I was so disappointed cause it only had the two seasons. :(

    Munster v Ospreys wasn't exactly close.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    REAPER IS CANCELLED?! :eek::eek:
