The Barclays Premier League thread 2015/2016

Typical.

[Szumi]

Been such a pathetic performance from us. If we really lose to Newcastle... Just seems like whenever we build momentum, this happens.

[MDK]

Thanks Squirtle for ruining my acca 

[Gazz]

Linesman has mugged Moreno there.

[DavidMarrio]

I feel like just for how sloppy we've been we deserve to lose even if Moreno clearly got robbed of a perfectly good goal.

But as said after we got one against Bournemouth they go for you and against you. Should be creating more chances and not giving it away as much. 

[Gazz]

88:31 for the first shot on target in the entire match.

[lanky316]

There's the second. Can almost hear the tears of anguish from Sky at the invincible Liverpool losing.

[The Radical Moongoose]

Terrible performance, Newcastle completely deserve the win.

[Gazz]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! KLOPP YOU IDIOT! YOU FELL RIGHT INTO MCCLAREN'S TRAP OF LULLING YOU INTO A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY BY BEING ABSOLUTELY SHIT FOR A MONTH! THE MASTERPLAN WORKED!

LIVERPOOL?

MORE LIKE LIVERFOOL!

[MDK]

Topless geordie in the stands, I say!

[Hobo]

Liverpool had no luck today and a few underperforming players to boot.

[9 to 5]

No joke on nothing, Leicester City are the only team who look like they actually want to win the title.

[Jimmy]

Newcastle always hit form just before they place us  

[9 to 5]

....at the scene?!

[Kyle]

If Everton win against Palace tomorrow, this weekend of football will have been perfect. Losses for City, Chelsea and the shite, and wins for Everton and Leicester.  

[TCO]

We're not as shit anymore! 

Fantastic result! Liverpool were poor but it was a very good tactical approach by McClaren too. Kept it tight and frustrated them, before nabbing a sloppy goal on the break. I have no doubt that we're still in serious trouble and Papiss Cisse is still woeful, but I'm going to enjoy this result as there may not be another one like this for a while.

Whilst rummaging through boxes of very old papers (mostly containing C- grade essays from my A-levels...), I came across a couple of Chelsea Magazine issues from the summer of 2002. This has reintroduced me to the joys of the 'Ask Ken' (Bates) section, featuring answers of the following calibre:

Quote

What, if anything, impressed you most about the Millennium Stadium?
Nothing.

What would be your ideal World Cup Final?
Chelsea 3 France 0.

If you could change one thing at Stamford Bridge what would it be?
The air-conditioning.

In the unlikely event that the burglar who stole Dennis Wise's caps and medals is reading this, what would be your message to him?
Give them back, you toe-rag!

I wonder why Abramovich has not opted to participate in a similar feature...

This was my first thought too. Going to be a very tough game like.

[Baddar]

That has all the makings of an entertaining game tomorrow night. Some really good MNF games coming up in the next few weeks. 

[Rich]

MNF tomorrow in the prem is bound to be overshadowed by Grimsby on BT Sport.
