Football

ooh, hang on they got 65 points in 07/08, still not enough though.

So, it looked like Liverpool were safe in 4th place for a bit. Then the Sheiks arrived, bish bosh, millions spent, great squad assembled, steady manager in place. Liverpool now have to spend again.

I think it was more a case of Spurs being displaced by the Sheiks than Liverpool. They were already spiralling.

I think Arsenal fans get generally a bit upset by Chelsea, as they essentially did the same thing to them a few years before.

That was worth unflouncing for.

"it's been improved since"

What!? from 4th to, what was it, 7th this season? And last season. 4th was your high water mark.

last season = 8th
Before that, 5th, 5th, 6th....

Where's all this going???

Got it, 95

That one top 4 finish in 10 years isn't fit for comparison with a local rival.

ah right.

but they've been in the top tier of the football league longer than any other team, ever! That's got to stand for something, right?

round and round in circles just like always

yeah they should automatically qualify for champion league every year
come on FIFA what you playing at

everton < liverpool
or to put it another way
liverpool > everton

I might lock this thread 'til April next year

will that be after Everton have qualified for the Champions League?

How do you find out about these 'games'?

By reading http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool-fc every day.

they've spent £100m since Kenny's come in. That's an entire squad for over half the league.

To be fair at the same time they sold a fucked Spaniard who can't score for £50M in the deal of the century.

And Babel
Jovanovic has just agreed personal terms as well.
Aqua man will be gone as will Poulsen.. and YJC if any one wants him

the more i read about aquilani the more i think we might need him in the centre of midfield
maybe we can loan him back from who ever we sell him to for 6 months ?

will that be after Everton have qualified for the Champions League?

I'll re-open it after Kinky's resigned/been sacked

End of November then

If anyone's really bored; Werder Bremen v Everton

Bremen 1-0 up @ HT

^ this is all very interesting but the hard fact remains no serious football team would have jenas on their books. End of

We'll have him back.

Oh.
