would anyone settle for penaltys now

[Slim]

Christ, football commentary in this country is bad. Do the Germans, Spanish, Dutch and Italians have to put up with really ordinary ex-second division players with huge biases and zero insight commentating on games? Basically, if you are a mouthy, inarticulate ex player a job awaits you at the BBC and Sky Sports.

Spanish ESPN-HD, solves all your problems.

I wish!

Oh, you mean footballing problems.

I am afraid for everything else, you will need to post a MarkMak "clueless on life" style thread in off-topic.

Remember...if we win...the game doesnt matter, however we played or whatever the score. If they win, the opposite applies. Wouldnt mind if it was just scum fans adopting that stance, thats natural...but why the press and tv are so spiteful towards us god only knows...it should have dissipated by now, its been three years since the takeover.

But of all the clubs to champion, they choose the Rags. These are people without self awareness or scruples.

[Crossie]

Sky use to own 40% of the rags.

[The Original Special One]

No Aguero, then?

[deacon]

Please swap Kun for Barry before penalties.

[The Original Special One]

The fact this is a glorified friendly is going to be zero consolation if we lose. Especially after the wall-to-wall negativity from commentators all afternoon.

Truly criminal bias in both 'commentary' teams!

[Esky]

Sustained pressure and Yaya lazily blasts it from 25 yards. He's been poor today.

[guv111]

No Aguero, then?

At 2-0, twenty minutes from Aguero at the end would have sealed a good afternoon. Now his absence smacks of Mancini at his negative worst.

wankers

[Dameerto]

for fucl's sake Kompany

[Bianchi on Ice]

ITS ONLY A FRIENDLY!

Not just that, but in Steve Claridge's case he seems to think that saying exactly the same thing for 90 minutes (in his nasal, whiny, "my life is unfair" voice) makes him insightful.

Oh fuck it. 2-3.

Claridge is in heaven.

[paddyblue]

kompany=idiot

[deacon]

Fucking shit man.

[lets all have a disco]

Last minute again eh?

[The Original Special One]

Sums up Kompany's game; he's had a shocker today!
At least its not a game that counts, so he's got it out of the way

[Bianchi on Ice]

"the right team", claridge???? go and spunk your salary on a three legged horse you CUNT

[paddyblue]

before the game these cunts said its not relly important for scum,now its what a win it goes in the record books
