The Barclay's Premiership - 2004/2005 Season - Thread

[Race Idiot]

Arsene would never do that

Arsene is an arse.

Although it look's like were loosing Tiago to the Olympics as well, although seeing as he's probably sub to Frank Lampard it doesn't realy matter anyway.

Chelsea 4, Celtic 2. 👍

 

[Mike Rotch]

Celtic are going to suck without Larsson. He was awesome. Smith is going to suck.

 

[Race Idiot]

Smith?

Which one.

 

[Mike Rotch]

How many Alan Smiths are there?

Who is the Alexei Smirnov (whatever his Ruski name is) guy?

 

[Race Idiot]

Alexei Smirnov

 

[Mike Rotch]

Funny like an own goal in extra time

 

[Race Idiot]

Smertin was on loan at Portsmouth last season and all of a sudden he wanted back in.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Now he is first choice? Strange.

 

[Race Idiot]

I doubt he is first choice, remember he's playing in a pre season match.

 

[Mike Rotch]

So, Butt off to Middlesbrough and Eriksson has been caught dipping his wick. Ha!

 

[Race Idiot]

Butt's off to Newcastle, we are trying to buy Ricardo Carvalho to replace Dessaily and Sven is an Idiot.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Carvalho sounds familiar. Was he ex-Porto?

Newcastle! Boo! Although is the shoe fits....

 

[Race Idiot]

Carvalho sounds familiar. Was he ex-Porto?

Yeah, he was quite impressive in Euro 2004 as well. It sucks though Porto have had allot of their players nicked, Deco has gone to Barca now as well. Although Helder Postiga has returned to them.

 

[Mike Rotch]

They are going to bomb out in Europe this year. As you say, all their players have been poached.

 

[Race Idiot]

Oh yeah, Rebrovs going to be playing for West Ham. Hopefully he can help them get back into the premiership, West Ham probably have the best youth system in the south of England.

 

[Mike Rotch]

I saw that. Who is their coach? Redknap is at Portsmouth isnt he?

 

[Race Idiot]

I think it's Allan Pardue.

 

[Rue]

Vieira is officially on his way to Real by all accounts. All that has to be agreed is the price. The championship door is now open for Chelsea and Manure.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Man, that just sucks.

But it could be a good thing. He is not a young guy anymore and with the money they get for him, they can get some other good players to boost the squad.

 

[MistaY]

Exactly, your just doing what Man U did with Beckham. Although the idea of Real Madrid with the added skills of Viera is pretty scary.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Plus Arsenal didnt do badly without him when he was banned or injured (a lot). As long as they get a good replacement or two. I hope he turns out like another Anelka

Newcastle! Boo! Although is the shoe fits....

We officially have the biggest fan-base...


...in TCB.

Nicky Butt doesn't get first team play in the England squad, there's no chance of him playing for a far superior squad like Newcastle.

 

[Mike Rotch]

He played in the ManU reserve team, so at least you chaps can now get your set pieces sorted out

 

[911_Carrera]

Is Robert staying? He has a decent left boot when it comes to set pieces.

Well most of your English midfield players don't play first team play in the England squad either (Jenas, Dyer) so he should fit in well.

How did I know that was coming?

What's the best team in South Africa Crotchster?

"Best" and "team" are such strong terms to apply to South Africa soccer.

Sundowns have the most Premiership titles, since it was switch from being called the 1st Division - 4 titles in 10 years.

Did you know: We have a team - Ajax Cape Town - wholly owned by Ajax Amsterdam. They finished 2nd last year.

 

[MistaY]

Could you not have like a Manchester United Johanesburg?

 

[Mike Rotch]

I think there are some lower division team called Spurs and QPR and such. One awesome team - now bankrupt - was called Crystal Brains 👍

 

[MistaY]

Looks like Chelsea have landed another Portugese player from, Porto! Who would've expected that? Not I!
