You mention Europe but not the French league?
For shame.

Oh right.


The French League.

That's the Ligue 1 you jerks. >:(

I thought we should be poking fun at Tottenham instead.

I want Everton to win the FA Cup because Moyes and their fans deserve something, I feel.

But as they say, deserves' got nothing to do with it.

no way man. we need the cushion of 6th place just in case. not that i don't believe we can stay at minimum 5th. but never hurt to have more of a good thing.

now onto the game last night. i've never seen alexander doni play that badly in his roma days (granted, his heyday is in roma). i blame that on ring rust and subsequently, on kenny for refusing to give him a chance, despite having played so many cup games and reina's poor form.

“I’m aware what I said about titles,” Nasri wrote on Twitter. “I’m sure I will lift a trophy with Man City before AFC.

It does seem probable.

“And to all the Arsenal fans, move on. City are 10 points ahead of you.

True.

“Just support your team and forget about me.”

Couldn't agree more.

Just saw the highlights and read the reports. According to the reports, Newcastle was mediocre in the first half but did well in the half that matters (the second). But I'm more concerned about how wonderful Benny's goal is.

I was outside whenI checked the scores at 65 minutes. I was prepared to make a long rant of how Newcastle is not ready for the vigours of European competition (i.e. a game every 2 to 4 days) when I saw the scores at 0 - 0. Then I returned home at about 90 minutes and saw the score at 2 - 0.

I'm still a little concerned though. Maybe they really are tired or something. I didn't see the match though so I'm probably wrong here.

4 days of BPL in a row. With the title settled (sadly), it's time to turn our attention to a little bit down the table as Tottenham's Champions League spot look to be under severe threat from the Blues and the Magpies. Arsenal has earned a breather for now after the victory against the Citizens.

Oh and, FORZA, BIANCONERI!!!

lmao City.

Mancini not subbing Balotelli off was the most hilarious thing. Guy was doing nothing, was a complete liability, and he had options. So he uhh brings on Kolarov. And then he brings on a forward, in Tevez.....for Aguero. Just lol.

That's two chances Balo could've been taken off. Kola replacing Balo on the left wing or Carlos replacing Balo as a forward in the 4-4-2 later on. Fella kept going into challenges studs-first and kept refusing to track back. No wonder even "Father Figure" Mancini can't stand him anymore.

This season sucks *****.

No way man. From the sounds of it, Fergie won't be resting until he beats Pep, which is going to take a long time.

Half time 0 - 0. FYI while you're at work.

Lame **** season. Boring United champions again. Extha doesn't get why people are cheering for City. Understandably, cheering for City because of United and not becaue of City is a little silly but United winning = same old ****. City winning = fresh + hilarity ensues as football traditionalists nerd rages.

Same old **** BPL, same old ****.

Not so fast!

Pool salvaged a point against Villa.

In other news, golden opportunity for the Italian Invincibles to regain the initiatives as AC are in danger of dropping all three points.

My god Dirk Kuyt skied an open goal.

Nothing is going right for Pool ever since they won that cursed trophy.

I'm hoping Liverpool do well from now on actually. Not that I'm doing this because Liverpool winning the FA Cup will be good for Newcastle or anything like that.

(o _o .)

(. o_ o)

Quite a draining game. Swansea's solid possession game made us run a lot more than we should, especially with Bolton coming up just two days away on Monday. Ba's goals have dried up, which is another cause for concern. We lost Tiote to a hamstring niggle as well.

Even so, here's to a hard earned and well deserved fifth. Cabaye was instrumental in both classic Dewcastle counter attack to thread the ball to Cisse.

ahhhh cisse again

Hey! Jonas cut his hair! Shaved his face too!

I'm kinda concerned that we'll be run ragged too early by Swansea's possession game.

Beautiful counter attack

Old boy Wayne Routledge faces us again.

So, Mario vs Mancini is still going on. I hope they are only doing this show to draw attention and fire from the rest of their teammates.

Rooting for City massively this week.

Sorry Ex, but you losing could put us ahead of you by the end of the Easter weekend. Plus it stops the title race from being over.

if only arsenal's loss can enable us to replace spurs in the top 4. alas, it will only enable chelsea to break in instead of us because we all know we stand little chance against the blues, even in the sports direct arena.

and then there's sporting lisbon sticking out like a sore thumb among the spanish teams in the semis.

i too think that farcelona are no different from any other team. they too resort to simulation when the going gets tough and the stakes gets high.

tonight,

chelsea finishes off benfica,

real finishes off apoel.

Blaugrana vs Rossoneri.

Die Roten vs OM.

Tonight.

Thoughts?

Lack of action here really. Here's to a United slip up.

Perchy certainly made a meal out of Pepe's minute contact. Not the best way to sign off after such a good defensive performance. Yet, you just can't go around touching heads when you are on the field.

Guess we're finally going to see Alexander Doni in action. Here's to better luck in the FA Cup, Pool. :D ;D

Wait a minute. That goal by Papiss is offside.

Ahh Whatever. Who cares if it's an illegal goal as long as it's good for the Magpies.

7 goals in 7 games.

9 million totally well spent.

Ehhh why?

BABAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAH What a wasted dive by Carroll. To think he could've had such a glorious chance when Krul totally missed the ball.

And Cisse scores on like, the first shot on goal against the run of play. In the face of massive Liverpool pressure.

Here we go! The battle at St J... Sports Direct Arena is about to begin.

correct me if i'm wrong but the late, great robert enke was from h96 wasn't he?

City somehow rescued a point but they are still ****ed. Damn ****ing damn it.

Nice Theo. Ain't no post gonna stop him.

WTF Seb Larsson

####ing hell damn it first fabrice muamba had a heart attack and now stiliyan petrov has acute leukemia. >:( :(

boy oh boy, lunch time match on sunday. magpies vs kop. actually, i don't feel confident about that match at all. colo injured, meaning the most likely center back pairing is willo and perch. and then there's that match at anfield.

munich vs real will be more winnable for real than barca vs real. it's pretty exciting to witness the rise of mourinho's legend. portugal, england, italy and now spain. he wins the top flight league title everywhere he goes. Maybe he'll consider germany next.

no gotze? no problem. talented attacking midfielders are dime a dozen. christian erikson and keisuke honda came off the top of my mind just like that. not to mention jack wilshere.

Awesome. 1 last question: Does the points goes into the negative zone?

Edit: Actually, make that 2. What happens if the red ball flies off the table?

Gonna play Snooker for the 1st time today. Played Pool before so I kinda know a bit of what's going on basically.

But I tried reading up on the rules for Snooker and they are complicated as hell. Especially the scoring system. So I wanted to clarify some stuff.

Is it that the brown ball worth 3 points and the green ball worth 4 points or is it vice versa?

If I pot my cue along with the red ball, do I get a -3 pts (red 1 pt and cue -4pts) or -4 pts (cue -4pts)?

If my "on" ball is red and I hit say, a black. Is it -4 pts (misc offence -4 pts) or -7 pts (black worth 7 pts)?

If my "on" ball is say yellow (2 pts) and I hit say, a blue. Is it -4 pts (yellow 2 pts but min 4 pts) or -5 pts (blue worth 5 pts)?

Is hitting a red to make that red pot another red counted as potting a red and worth 1 pt?

When all the reds are gone, everybody must hit the balls in order (yellow, green/brown, green/brown, blue, pink, black) without the option to choose which ball to hit?

I'm currently still working so I can spend this 10 mins typing this but I don't have time to spend 1 hr trying to comprehend the rules on sites and wiki.

Claudio Ranieri the latest victim to Massimo Moratti's axe after losing the Derby d'Italia.

Roman and Massimo should co-own a football club or something.

can martin jol pull a rabbit out of his hat and hand mancini a lifeline?

Juve beat Inter 2 - 0, still keeping an outside chance for the Serie A title.

And Italian league football still isn't getting any love. :(

Didn't like the way Newcastle sat back and let WBA press us instead of taking the chance to press them even further, even after they were down to ten men due to Morrison's injury.

Pro tip: Paul Scharner has a lot of West Brom fans as friends on Facebook.

Oh hey Siem de Jong scored a penalty to make it 2 - 0 for Ajax against PSV.
