Luke Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Best quote about Eriksons winner on Twitter. Do that against Chelsea in the final and you can have a go on the Mrs. That is so beautiful. Bloody funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 That's because they Van Gaal has finally realised it should be Di Maria, Januzaj, Rooney, Van Persie and Falcao on the pitch from the outset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booster Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 £240 wasted on a day out. Well not quite wasted as it includes booze and I'm making sure I get my money's worth out of this Manc lot!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 WTF do they put in West Ham Christmas pud every year? How long will it take to wear off ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Apparently it's the biggest sponsorship deal the Hammers have done. £20M for 3.5years. Alpari was £3M a year. Edited February 7, 2015 by Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) £20m. On a serious note though, it does show the gulf in sponsorship value even between Premier League teams. If you take the Man United deal with Chevrolet over 3.5 years (it is a 7 year deal) you get a good idea of that. The West Ham deal is worth £5.7m per year. The Man United deal is worth £52m per year. Still, not bad for an irrelevant little club in London. Edited February 7, 2015 by NewNiceMrMe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Exactly that I was thinking when I posted. Add in the current limited attendance figures and it's no wonder they're not a consistent top 6 team. I also shows that as the money goes up the returns deminish. i.e. twice the budget doesn't mean twice the ability but then you don't need that. You just need to be good enough to win. More money coming and a bigger capacity ground can only help. Not looking forward to today's game. We'd need to be at full strength to challenge and with a crippled defence it could get nasty.

NewNiceMrMe Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 The United game is tomorrow, not today. I won't be surprised if it is a draw. I think it'll be a tough game. We've been very poor and scraping through games recently. Defensively we aren't anything like as bad as people make out but we've been struggling for goals and any form of fluidity. The defensive frailty comments puzzle me most though from pundits. In terms of goals conceded, this is the Premier League... 17 - Southampton 20 - Chelsea 22 - Man United 23 - Man City ---------------------- 25 - Arsenal ---------------------- 27 - Liverpool 27 - West Ham 28 - Stoke 30 - Swansea 30 - Spurs 30 - Aston Villa ..yet United get constantly criticised for their defence. Bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm Chris Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I feel for you. NOT. Since the beginning of the Premier League in 1992, Arsenal have generally dominated this fixture, winning 18 matches out of the 44 played and losing only 8 times. Arsenal also lead in the wider context of the Premier League, having won the competition three times to Tottenham's none and by finishing above their rivals in the table 19 times in 21 seasons. This fixture is also notable for being the highest-scoring one in the Premier League, with 126 goals scored in 44 meetings (as of March 2014).

Luke Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I love people who look for positives when they've been beaten. Did you look at the stats for today as well? One stat was 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Gareth Bale will be massacred in La Marca tonight and tomorrow. The Real fans have already turned on him in a bizarre fashion despite a very good season for them so far (all for not passing to Ronaldo a few times). However, the reports already suggest he was completely anonymous today (they also say most of the other Real players were too though) and the fans seem to like picking on him whenever a result goes the wrong way.

Booster Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Consigned ourselves to the Championship today. Absolutely awful second half. Fans leaving in their droves, players booed off the pitch and finally the call for Pearson's head. If he still has a job on Monday I will be very surprised.

Luke Posted February 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 What about the touchline incident with Pearson. Is he a mental case? Afterwards he said he could look after himself. I think he needs someone to look after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 He's like one of those embarrassing middle aged blokes in the pub who suddenly regresses to an 18 year old and wants to take the world on. Likes to give a bit of 'banter' out but can't hack getting it back. Thinks he's the hardest man in the world at an age when anyone with a sense of self respect knows enough not to get involved. And takes himself far, far too seriously. Not entirely unlike one or two on here ... we all have our moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
