It was funny. Shame the ref had to send him off, but when you're part of a broader conspiracy you can't allow humour to influence the plan.

Well said Andy.

A friend who was there described the game as the best and most enjoyable defeat ever.

WBA play Arsenal on Sunday. Sadly Jones won't referee.

Fabregas wanted to get sent off, he tried it against Liverpool too. He's booked himself an early holiday, job's done and clearly doesn't fancy hanging around that shit pit any longer than he needs to.

In ten months at Chelsea he's won more championships than arsenal have in ten years.

There aren't enough chevrons in the world.

In 10 months at Chelsea he's won more Leagues than Gerrard has won in more than a decade at Liverpool

at a rate of £250mn per title, it's a luxury we couldn't afford

In 10 months at Chelsea, he's played 23 games at Stamford Bridge.

Lies.
They have won the same.

Stevie has won the Champions League.

So how much have Liverpool spent in the past 11 years not to win a title?

Afternoon all, and congratulations Clive. A title well-deserved, though you'll be hard pressed to defend it next year obviously.

Sterling to City?

First out of the blocks is Jamie La: -

I agree with him, it's disgraceful that players so show little loyalty these days, unlike St Steven of Gerrard #loyalty

Stop pretending your net spend isn't huge. In the last 5 years Man U only spent £8m more than you.

Liverpools Premier League net spend is £326m and some change. Since '92 that is.

Oh good - is it net spend comparison season again?

Let's hope so, Arsenal are always in with a realistic chance of glory in that one.

Pfffft >>>>>

Villa are 11th in the table of the last 5 seasons, FA cups don't come cheap. They're 5th since '92.

Bring on the stat comparison season. Top bants.

I'll stop now/

Bring on the stat comparison season.

2001/2002 was, statistically, the best season for end-of/post season stat comparison.

chelseas net spend on juan cuadro and mohammed salah is £38mn

Do you mean Cuadrado? Who is in the squad and as a fast midfielder that can play in defence seems like a good idea. Salah is out on loan.

I'm not sure you understand the net spend concept, it only really makes sense as an overall team figure spread over a number of years. (I know you do understand it)

One from Swiss Ramble to debate:

congrats to Sunderland.

Is it wrong to lose respect for players when they fuck off to Qatar or UAE for one last payday? Raul and now Xavi. I thought he was better than that, and would have stayed in Catalonia.

It is me being judgmental unfair on @b&d?

l00000000000000l!!!
