Around the Premier League

[MisterF]

Thought we could use a catch-all thread for week-to-week comments on various EPL games that don't necessarily need their own thread.


Anyone watching the Arsenal/Blackburn match? Arsenal absolutely destroying Rovers. RvP already with a hattrick. Oxlade-Chamberlain has also looked really impressive. Doesnt help that Blackburn is down to 10 men. 6-1 and counting.

7-1. I wish Fulham played like this against a 10 man Blackburn.

Yea no kidding! I'm also hoping Man City doesnt do the same this to us!

Pretty cool to see Henry get a goal at the end there.

Wow Wigan take the lead 1-0 against Everton after a terribly judged deflection from Howard. It does seem a bit slick out there though.

EDIT: and now Everton have equalized. About time this game got interesting.

Not sure this thread really works (because I really wanted to start a new thread emphasizing QPR's loss) ...we have an entire forum to discuss Premier League games and such. Feel free to start new topics in this forum, MisterF and everyone else.

Fair enough, just took the idea from a hockey message board I post on. We can let it die then.

The filth from Scumford Bridge lost to Woy's WBA for the first time since 1979...

How much longer will it be until an AVB getting shown the door is added to the sacking pool thread?

Wow so that didn't take long! AVB sacked this morning!

Perfect cure for insomnia this morning. Chelscum was hosting Spurs and for 2 teams fighting for the CL it was dreadful.

Wigan wins at Anfield. Bolton over Blackburn. Norwich wins. Fulham don't have to look over their shoulder just yet, but still, snap out of it lads b/c the final script hasn't been written, yet.

Call me morbid, call me pale, but Daglish's whinging has finally gotten to me. He now complains of Liverpool's fixture schedule AND THEY AREN'T EVEN IN EUROPE. Give me a break...at first I was indifferent, but now I think he should STFU. I'm tired of his act - and he isn't that good - where are you in the table? Woo hoo, 'Pool won the Carling Cup. Therefore, they can play reserves and crash out early next year b/c they won't respect the competition in all likelihood.

Agreed. Stop the tears Kenny.

The battle at the bottom is heating up and Citeh not totally dead yet. Wigan 1 ManU 0... What else can be said about Martinez and how good a manager he is? QPHa hammers Swansea and both them and the Latics are out of the drop zone, putting Blackburn (and their calamitous last second loss to Liverpool) and Bolton in the drop zone. Villa better get a result soon or they might get dragged into this relegation battle.

Citeh moves back ahead of United on GD and back within 5 points, with a home match against them still on the schedule.

[DCHeather]

Yeah, saw the Man U/Wigan match. It should be interesting when we face them next...which will be awhile.
