AVB Had No Pay Off - More Good Work By The Board
watcherfromafar replied to Superblue's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
Are Spurs really going for him? I heard the rumour, but can't believe it. -
Football Grounds we've visited as a forum ?
watcherfromafar replied to dave30's topic in Football Chat
Green with envy mates. Here's mine: Bellbrook Stadium (USA, OH) - Dayton Dutch Lions Wright State Univ. (USA, OH) - Wright State U. Raiders. Oh yeah ... Beavercreek High School (USA, OH) - Beavercreek Beavers (my high school) -
Bottom line ought to be who is the best going forward. Don't honestly know enough about it to say RDM isn't it. Is there a better alternative?

PSG at Yankee Stadium would be awesome. Need to make some cash by then.

Chelsea F.C are Champions of Europe
watcherfromafar replied to Shane's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
Congratulations guys. Alright. I'm one of those new-found followers. American and I love our games, but this was a great season to watch. The highs and lows were incredible. Some might call us glory hunters and I get that to some degree. For all you who followed the club through the hard years, cheers. I realize my enjoyment of this is a fraction of yours. What an amazing thing to see. -
Chelsea and QPR....a real rivalry ?
watcherfromafar replied to diskoviolente's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
You don't have to have a real rivalry to hate someone's guts. I'll admit I was seeing red in more ways that one after the last match. -
I really like football, but my first love is hockey. Some of you might be just discovering hockey in the same way I am football. Anyway, the regular season is a monster grind. It's 82 games and the best teams will lose. Never put too much stock in any single regular season result. The main thing is just to stay in the top 8 in the conference, get to the playoffs and then perform. As a Montreal fan, it ain't looking good right now. The hated Bruins are strong, but a lot can happen.

Little things that annoy you about Football matches

I'll second Neil Warnock -
Whether he's guilty or not, I still find it amazing to think someone would be criminally charged for something like this.
-
I understand the FA doing what they are doing, but can't get why the police have anything to do with it.
-
I think it is better to have the freedom to speak and sometimes that means controling your emotions when words hurt.
-
No. Even that word, is just a word.
-
I'm certainly no racist and don't think very highly of people who are, but suspension? For spoken words? Really? Cultural difference I guess. I will support a person's right to say something even if I hate the words they say. The step too far would be a threat.

Side Show Bob. That's what I've been repressing for half a year now? Amazing. Thanks.

Lets all laugh at manures....
watcherfromafar replied to KamikazeBlue's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
I don't know what half of you are talking about. Man U's player (evans was it) took down a man in the box. Then they pissed down their leg the rest of the way. Blues took a rather harsh call on several calls (especially the Bosingwa red card) and still nearly got a draw out of it. City's talented, but that's a real weak performance by Manure. -
I tend to be a traditionalist in most ways, but I'd say both socks are at least ok. Wear one when the other is dirty.
-
I was a fullback back when I was little. No skill at all and slow as dirt. Fortunately they never called fouls over here at that level, so I'd just kick away and hit ball, ankles, knees and sometimes higher.
-
Is it not unreasonable to think that AVB and the boys will get tactically better with almost every passing week? As long as attitudes don't get in the way, Blues should be a lot better by December. The Manchester teams are very good, but they'll hit a snag at some point. As far as Liverpool, I think they have a decent shot at the top five, but a ceiling is definitely there. Let's do ourselves a favor here. No real hard pessimism until the club actually drops three points.
-
I think that if City wins something, the complaints will get a lot louder.
-
Just a couple of hours ago, it was a 1/4 tank of gasoline and a chocolate milk. The gas was ok. The chocolate milk was outstanding.
-
I still think that a lot can happen, both positively for Chelsea and negative for Man United and City. Think about the roller coaster that last year was.
-
Hear that. Save that, they don't look much like scoring.
-
West Brom goal. Leveled.
-
Just my opinion, but it seeems when a team like Stoke goes out with the intention of obtaining a 0-0 or 1-0 result,it's going to be tough. A penalty call on any one of three plays would have lifted Chelsea. Would have liked to see a better start, but its something to build on. Damn, West Brom just missed one.

Fox Soccer Plus and early. Actually the time's ok. A less less beer and a little more sleep is always a good idea. The pisser is that I don't get Fox Soccer Plus in HD.
