conzer16 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Great win for Burnley, well done Robbie Blake too - former Leeds man. We've still got out 100% record. 4 from 4, 3 from 3 in league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) Was at St James' s tonight, alongside a crowd of 43,904. Bear in mind that's in the championship, against Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland had 6,000 empty seats in the premier league against Chelsea.

Roostophe Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 And there was probably around 20,000 booing bastards at Villa Park on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuD Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Greening has gone to Fulham on a season loan. Thats now two players we've got on loan to premier league sides..? Don't really see the point myself, unless we plan on having them back if we regain our premier league status at the end of the season??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platty Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Absolutely gutted about the Burnley result. Watched the extended highlights on skys football first. We had so many chances and if it wasn't for "the beast" it would have been a comfortable win. But man Owen sort it out.... im sure you'll come good soon but hurry up and knock one in. I also thought we were pretty narrow. No width, im surprised fergie didn't start with Valencia seen as the trouble stoke caused burnley last week down the wings and on crosses.... Blake's goal was a screamer, nothing we could have done about that except maybe get rid of it in the build up before but man Brown was all over the place all night. I hear Vidic is almost ready thank God. Carrick taking the penalty is another shocker when we got the likes of Rooney and Anderson on the pitch. In truth Burnley with all their defending and the Beast playing a blinder deserved it and hopefully it's an early kick up the arse for us we need. Still shocking though. Need a good win against Wigan at the weekend now. As for Spurs apart from about a 10 minute spell where Hull scored and almost go another, they looked immense. Midfield ran the show and Defoes finishing was sublime. Harry seems to have finally got 11 players on the pitch who want to wear the shirt for Spurs. If they continue to play like that can easily see them finishing top 6 maybe pushing for 4th with Man City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Pardon my ignorance, but who is "the beast" ? Few of my man u supporting friends were tearing up because Carrick wasn't playing last game, then he bombs a penalty and a sitter. Beautiful to watch! Up the spurs!

DuD Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 "The Beast" is former baggie Brian Jensen (Burnley's keeper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 You should've seen my face when I checked the results on my phone. I caught the train from Disneyland back to our hotel. Uses phone internet. See Burnley had beaten us 1-0. Sees that Carrick also missed a penalty. Feet also hurt from 3 days of trekking. The magic of Disney had died pour moi.

Babooo Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Going to the Emirates in a bit...cannot wait....first home game of the season and up against Pompey....judging by what I've seen of Portsmouth so far, we should beat them comfortably but I'm not gonna be too cocky about anything....2-0 to the Arsenal. Arshavin with the goals.....come on you gunners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roostophe Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Nice, Westbrom are doing nicely. How many top teams from the Championship go up? Has this figure changed recently? It's still 3. Has been since they stopped mucking about with the Premier League numbers in, ooh, I dunno, probably 1995. Hopefully should stay that way too. Does annoy me sometimes, league restructuring...

tapedeck Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Was at St James' s tonight, alongside a crowd of 43,904. Bear in mind that's in the championship, against Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland had 6,000 empty seats in the premier league against Chelsea. Oh dear. I see the mags are still clutching at straws. (And you say we are obsessed with your lot.) It was a mid-week game - mere days after our previous game and we had ONLY 6,000 empty seats yet still got a turn out of around 30,000+. Only the Geordies would compare that to their status. Perhaps there was a turn out of 43,904 at Sid James' Park just to see if Ameobi actually can score goals and you CAN actually go on to win games. Your lot are doing well in the championship and I do hope it lasts so we can play derbies again next season. However, with the rats who got you into the championship leaving the sinking ship who knows how your season will go. Afterall, the biggest rat is still there! In other news, Sunderland won today. In the Premiership. Damn we were lucky. Now Roy has gone refs actually like us again. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours was also a mid-week game, the difference is that our game was against Sheffield Wednesday, in the Championship, with no manager, an owner dismantling the club, and our players leaving in droves and yours was against one of the biggest teams in the world, in the best league in the world. Your lot seem quite disappointed with your attendances, anyroad, particularly compared to ours. http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=433965 http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=434179 http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=434927 Main reason I point it out is that I've been reading people on forums and in the media gloating about how I'd be sitting alongside 20,000 empty seats this season.
