Domestic football - spam version

[Blade]

The way today's gone Palace winning today wouldn't surprise me at all.

...Shit.

 

[Alastor]

Well that does it.

 

[Blade]

This is painful to watch. When did Cazorla get so sloppy?

 

[Blade]

Took Ramsey over 90 minutes to score. Not impressed. Shadow of the player he once was.

 

[Uncle Sam]

That goal, particularly if Giroud is credited with an assist, just saved my fantasy team this week.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I decided not to go to the pub after the game today. Supposedly my brother, who did, ran into Bob Peeters - i.e. Charlton's manager. Outside a chip shop rather than in the pub.

Last time Man United lost their opening game, they won the league.

But no, I don't see that happening either. The trouble with United is they have players who rarely play 2 good halves of football back-to-back: Rooney was anonymous in the first half, far more active in the second. Fletcher was working well in the first half to break-up play and help the defence then decided to start passing to Swansea in the second half.

In other news, I'm in a fantasy league with a toon fan who has named it 'There's only 2 Ameobi's'

 

[Blade]

Is it Lee?

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

Fucking Leeds.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Is it Lee?

Nope, I just know a surprisingly high ratio of Newcastle fans.

There's 3, all have played for Newcastle. He's got 3 sisters to, one I went to school with the other I went to church with.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

Why does he remind me of Roger from American Dad, I do not know.

 

[Lee]

Shocking start for fantasy for me, but still 4 players to go.

 

[Tastycles]

I've got 4 to play and also Super Sigurdsson's points will count. If any of the others don't play, my one and only other shrewd pick of the season, two year absentee Alan Hutton, will come in.

 

[Uncle Sam]

My fantasy team this week reveals how, particularly when it comes to football, I'm an ignorant moron. Oh well, I muddled through last year, didn't I?

You were the result of a drunken conversation between two mates last night 'who the fuck is Uncle Sam* and how's he third?'

[Uncle Sam]

Last year, I was beaten in one of my leagues by someone who didn't know anything about football. Not literally nothing; figuratively nothing; literally very little.

I'm sure you've found this game comfortable viewing, Lee.

 

[Lee]

It's typical us v Man City in that we've played pretty well but can't do anything in the final third. They then get an undeserved 2nd goal.

 

[Lee]

Well done MOTD2 for stating Aarons was a new signing for us. He's from the academy.

Also what's the craic with being English? BBc mentioned that 25% of English people on the pitch was the referee. Does Dummett not class as English because he plays for Wales? Geordie born and bred is English to me.

 

[TDFG]

Can't play for England now though, so technically not English on those terms.

The national team wont improve unless things change. Even with FIFA's idiotic rankings, 20th is about right.

 

[Lee]

But he's still English. People can hardly complain about there not being home grown players and then list Dummett as a foreign player. It's scraping a barrel that doesn't need scraped. I get there's far too many foreign players but when you see the likes of Rodwell who's not played properly for 2 seasons going for 12million you need to question what's going on.

[A11oftheLights]

I had an absolute shocker in fantasy this week, 24 points

 

[Dan Severn's Moustache]

48, but I ended the first day with 6.
