Middlesbrough v Arsenal

boro should be lumping high balls into he arsenal box but too dumb to realise. get ayala forward

Why are Arsenal, L'Pool, City and Utd all winning now, when they chucked any chance of the Title weeks ago?

It's what they do, Des, all to play for

Man U do.

It's as if their confidence soars as soon as the chance of winning anything is gone.

sanchez boro, best passer off,thank foook for that

They will take that if they win it! Luckily, Sevilla aren't featuring this year........Rommel?

+ 4 minutes added time

Pressure off, Des, like you or me at a snooker hall or whatever, no pressure, easy play

to be fair Arsenal aren't sitting back and hanging on to the 2-1 win, they are going for the 3rd

Alexis Sanchez : Man of the Match

get past thursday eh perc'

That's another 3 million on his wages then

I think Boro have played OK, could have and should have at least another 2 goals in this half......

1-2 FT. Well done Arsenal and Wenger. Crisis over.

I'd be amazed if they don't win that one Rommel, and so would you

I'm hopeless at snooker, whether there's pressure, or not!

ffs ok

Only a fifth of teams - 17 out of 85 - achieved automatic promotion the season after being relegated.


won't be seeing them around here for a good while then 

who for boro

I always go for two goals more than what is scored, and that is why I am a pauper

Ox

Course, I'm an excellent snooker player. uh-oh, fart...

Thanks fek ,Boro out soon

Could have done with the win, but that away goal has them odds on for me. Not that I'll be backing them, I never back outright, just goals

Early days in the snooker, anxious, I can't be assed until it hots up next week.

Tesco have put the price of four Stellas up to £5.40 from a fiver, but if you buy 8 it is only nine quid. This is what is wrong with society and the system, they are encouraging me to drink more. It's entrapment, and I demand compensation. And stuff.

Hic

dont you be lured in perc,make 2 trips,4 cans each time

Buy 8 and sell 4 for a fiver

You can get 20 cans for about 15 quid round our way Percy

Percy, I was referring to Jose sticking around not that he might be sacked but him deciding whether to stay for the long haul or not, a while back when things werem,t clicking quite right I thought he was getting a bit frustrated, slowly he looks to be getting it right there, always gonna take time to rebuild and find the players he wants etc. He will get them back amongst the top 3/4 I'm sure and I'm sure he has complete backing from the board and fans.

do any of you still watch snooker

Ronnnie went berserk didn't he the other day

Yes, I agree, after Moyes and Van Gaal they have to give him a few years, and he's already won two trophies, let's not forget.

Oh sofa, where were you in '85 at after midnight! It does, thank goodness the BBC still have this one, you aren't a snooker player then

i remember the 85

might have been the last time i watched

Charity shield and League Cup. You've only forgotten because your trophy cabinet has been repossessed by Liverpool council for being inactive for 20 years.

love the snooker

Good game, snooker, if someone can beat you at snooker they are a better player, any mug can win at pool

Charity Shield doesn't count. It's a "friendly" trophy. Like the Audi Cup.

Tell that to Leicester

Cards on the table, are you both Liverpool fans?

Me? No I'm a long suffering Spurs fan.

In which case, I can't tackle two hecklers at once, Statler and Waldorf!

Won't be suffering for long pal, I see them winning it, I really do

lobe pool too esp because snooker is hard hard to be good at lol pools a lot easier to be decent

Hope so but it looks out of reach this season.

My sister played the best game of pool I have ever seen, way back when; she started off with one on the cushion, I thought, 'Oh good grief', potted it and proceeded to whitewash the poor male opponent! Can't do that at snooker

Awwww, it must be hard being a Liverpool fan. I used to like them, I really did. I have said on this forum before, they are one of the teams I would play for, Utd the other, if you want a club with history. Chelsea no, City no.

Man U founded 1878
Man City founded 1880
Liverpool founded 1892
Chelsea founded 1905

'pool need to get more British players, as do Arsenal, in my opinion. The unsung heroes from Utd's heyday were players like Dennis Irwin, likewise the Ray Houghton's of Liverpool.

I know, they are old clubs, I meant recent history, Liverpool carrying the torch for so long and Man U taking over ag=fter we had got banned from Europe.

Percy the game now is all about money

Yes, that is what is so wrong. Remember when van Nistelrooy injured himself before his move to Manchester? He was gutted, he wanted to play for them so much.

That is one reason why I like what is happening with Tottenham , they have a young side with a lot of English players , a very good Manager I hope they do well and keep the team together and win trophies , good luck to them I say .

I wouldn't sign a player who just had options, I'd make sure they were a lifelong fan and wanted to be part of the club

I hope Spurs can win it, I really do, though I like Conte

acid test for me for any player,ask him "whats the cheapest for 4 cans of stella round your way?"

Gazza would know. What's the price there, Rommel?

gawd knows,dont drink lager pish now,did like stella tho

What's your poison then?

any recent reports on gaza?still in a bad way?

Do you like a nice wine Rommel

vino reddo

Can't beat the red wine, I will do a bottle then feel thirsty so have to go over to ale!

Gazza the silly lad , a tremendous player but was lost without the football

Is it just a recent thing that the game is all about money?

The first transfer over £100,000 was United's signing of Denis Law for £110,000 from Torino in 1962

Nottingham Forest first spent over £1m on Trever Francis in 1979 and Peter Shilton was the best paid player in Britain...they won the European Cup

In 1988 Paul Gascougne's transfer from Newcastle to Tottengham was the first one over £2m

Chris Sutton became first to earn over £10k when Blackburn signed him from Norwich in 1994...they would the PL

Transfer record broken again in 1996 when Newcastle signed Shearer for £15m

Roy Keane was the first player to earn over £50k a week in 2000

Sol Campbell was the first to earn over £100k a week when he joined Arsenal

First £30m transfer fee was Rio Ferdinands move to Man United in 2002

Carlos Tevez was the first to earn over £1m a month when he joined Man City in 2010

Haven't heard about Gazza recently, but that demon is a sh!tter to get rid of.

I know what your getting at mover , but its crazy now the money , and the fans are getting whacked with prices and the TV are whacking people too

remember a doc about gaza,near the end of his playing career,and he was at the airport flying to china,think maybe his dad was waving him off,one of his mates maybe too,just seemed the loneliest man in the world

It's a joke, their wages, and they defend it, saying, 'oh, well they have to retire at 35', ffs, I would retire at 20 if I was on 50 large a week!

Yeah that's true Rommel I bet he had plenty of mates when he had the cash

even as kids having done nothing,not pllyaed a first team game,some of them are on sooo much money,so its all about cars clothes-all kinds of crap,messes them up

Alcoholism is a vile addiction, I'm just glad I never smoked, or I would have that one to contend with.

Pisses me off, Rommel, Pogba with his haircut, a far cry from the Roy keanes of the club, just get out there and leave nothing! Feck your hair!

Only 5 of the highest paid footballers in the world play in the Premier League currently...Pogba, Rooney, Aguero, Toure and Ibrahimvic. The remainder play in Spain or China

agree perc',that degree of vanity isnt a good sign(wont make  a judgement on pogba)but in general yep

Anyway, I am going to go and watch Benidorm, drink British-brewed Stella and imagine I have a life, nice to talk to you chaps, if I offended anyone, it will happen again. See yous! Have a good evening.

Adios percy

Buenos noche

Denis Irwin was Irish. And still is.
