Football

From Sid Lowe's La Liga awards last week (I know, a bit late to the party):

Best fan

Hugo Mallo finally lived his dream of travelling to the Galician derby to watch his beloved Celta face Deportivo in enemy territory with his mates from the Iago Aspas fan club. Mallo boarded the bus, posed with a For Sale sign superimposed across debt-ridden Depor's badge while his mates gigglingly stuck it up on Twitter, and then sang his way through the journey before heading into the stadium two hours before kick off, ready for war. It was dark but he wore sunglasses and pulled his hood up, shouting for Depor's fans to come and have a go if they thought they were hard enough, singling out his victims and grabbing his crotch, inviting them to get their lips round this until a policeman in riot gear intervened. All of which would be pretty tame, but for one thing: Hugo Mallo is not just a Celta de Vigo fan, he is a Celta de Vigo player.

Galicians are mental... Trust me...

where you from again Joe ?

Dragged up on the council estates of Pimlico, bruv...

Who is Jose trying to sell? Mata and Luiz?

He only likes to have players who will ensure a boring 1-0 win.
No flair so off they go

midfield full of john obi mikel's
the glory days are back at chelsea
didn't roman sack him first time round for dreary turgid football

I think following Rafa's rejuvenation of Chelsea there will be a new emphasis on possession, kit deals and stadia.

Rafa did such a good job under difficult circumstances. I hope JM has sent him a little note to say thank you.

Bleurgh - can't be arsed to respond to the usual trolls.

Jose Mourinho broke Barca's cycle and won the league with a record amount of points and goals scored.

Also: TFSW vs. RDM ended with a win percentage of 56% vs. 57%

Jose Mourinho broke Barca's cycle and won the league with a record amount of points and goals scored.

In a Sunday league quality competition. In Spain he could only realistically lose two games a season, in the EPL their are seven other title challengers.

Jose Mourinho broke Barca's cycle and won the league with a record amount of points and goals scored.

And then imploded spectacularly, blew it all in his last season, gave up halfway through, and watched as Barca retook the league and matched the record points haul he claimed no-one else could reach. And upset most of the squad and fans at the same time. After exhibiting some pretty disgusting behaviour in the unseemly fights with the Barca staff in the previous season.

Are you not worried about what might happen if things don't go his way again?

Jesus fuck.

Arsenal (a)
Liverpool (h)
Chelsea (a)
Newcastle (h)

That's not the easiest start to a season.

On the other hand:
Arsenal - slow starters, won't have bought anyone, Wenger out. 3 points
Liverpool - lolz. 3 points
Chelsea - new team of primadonnas who won't play together. 1 point
Newcastle - more lolz. 3 points

Looking forward to the season now.

ftfy

roman has been trying to get rid for a few seasons rafa was the only manager with the balls to do it, he might as well have as he already had the fans against him

What does this mean? If Abramavich wanted rid of those two, he could have just sent a memo and it would have happened.

Villa aren't a big 6 delusion team.

Harsh, but at least we are premiership delusion.

Which part of my quote...

Dicki the results will be
DLLDWD and our season will be over after 3 games.
Nothing to see here >>>>>>>>>>
