May 8, 201115 yr haha happy with Wolves 2-0 West Brom so far as it puts Blackpool back in the relegation places. We need that derby next season!
May 8, 201115 yr I miscalculated. A West Ham win over Wigan and a United win over Blackpool, and our goal difference should see us through. Still, come on Baggies. Blackpool are down, don't worry, it's which of the other three survives.
May 8, 201115 yr Wolves 3-1 West Brom FT Could've been interesting if WB had taken more chances, but it was comfortable in the end
May 8, 201115 yr Nemanja Vidic (left) scored United's second after 23 minutes Man Utd beat Blues to close in on title Man Utd 2 - 1 Chelsea Manchester United need only a point at Blackburn on Saturday to win their 19th league title after beating Chelsea. United were superb in the first half and made a perfect start when Javier Hernandez scored in the first minute, slotting home from Park Ji-sung's pass. Nemanja Vidic then headed in Ryan Giggs's cross from a short corner. Frank Lampard gave Chelsea hope with a poacher's goal, but Alex denied United a third when he brilliantly blocked Wayne Rooney's shot from close range. Hernandez could also have made things safe in the closing stages but twice spurned good chances, heading over from Antonio Valencia's fine centre and scuffing a shot late on. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/9475025.stm
May 8, 201115 yr Chelski were poor and virtually handed United the title. Giggs and Park were superb.:cool: Arsenal were awful again, although I guess it didn't really matter much at the end of the day. United's title, anyway. Chelski gave them way too much of a head start in the league. Game over!:rolleyes:
May 9, 201115 yr Barsa 2 - 0 Espanyol Barsa 1 point away from winning La Liga. Eric Abidal played 20 minutes :D
May 9, 201115 yr oh it tastes so sweet!!!! :D You need a point, we need a point :wink3: (Providing you don't let Blackpool win too)
May 9, 201115 yr After a comfortable win against Fiorentina 3-1 and Napoli losing giving us a 4 point gap it looks as though the runners up position is pretty secure.
May 9, 201115 yr Fulham 2 - 5 Liverpool! 17 goals in 5 games. EMBLOODYPHATIC! Congrats! Europa League here you come?:rolleyes:
May 10, 201115 yr It isn't the first time it's happened. We agreed on some things about Blackburn a few days ago too. Anyway, I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Liverpool.
May 10, 201115 yr hopefully by some miracle liverpool get the 4 CL spot over man city. bring back the days of the big 4!
May 10, 201115 yr o it is goodbye to agony and hello and a big warm welcome to ecstasy. More than forty years after the club’s last outing in Europe’s premier club competition the Blues are back. In an ironic twist of fate City’s place in the top four was secured by Peter Crouch who put through his own goal, the ball finding the same netting that captured his winning effort for Spurs last season. It was sweet pay-back for Blues fans who saw Spurs celebrate their own ascent into the Champions League ranks thanks to the lanky England man at CoMs a year ago. Like last time there was always doubt where the joy would sit at the end of the night even though Spurs arrived six points behind City and with their wily and successful manager Harry Redknapp seemingly in full on deflection mode ahead of the contest. Riddled with injuries but their pride on show Spurs made City work and sweat for the victory that locked away the main objective of the season ...Chris Bailey City welcomed back Micah Richards to right back with Pablo Zabaleta shifting left and Aleks Kolarov on the bench. The defender was in good company for sat alongside him was leading scorer and captain Carlos Tevez hoping for a few minutes to prove his readiness for the FA Cup final. This was a night when team and fans were in perfect sync. A symposium of like minds straining sinew and vocal chords with one simple aim – collect the three points that would secure fourth spot and put pressure on Arsenal for third! With Nigel DeJong in thou shalt not pass mood and David Silva an elusive, livewire on the flanks and in open spaces, Tottenham were always tested. It was an impressive return, too, for the aforementioned Richards. Dzeko missed a golden chance to calm nerves in the 11th minute when his finishing failed to match his approach play. He cushioned Joleon Lescott’s long clearance into the path of David Silva but when the return pass came the Bosnian shot straight at Carlo Cudicini. It was debateable which was worse that or the miss by Luka Modric in the 27th minute. The Spurs man bending his shot wide of a gaping target. Crouch’s own goal three minutes later only served to put an exclamation mark behind the Croatian’s error ...Chris Bailey It came after a short corner and a low driven cross to the near post by James Milner. Spurs were bright after the break and Joe Hart was at his best to paw away sub Steven Pienaar’s header. Hart was in superlative form at White Hart Lane in the season opener and Tottenham must be fed up with him. A stray Crouch arm did for Pablo Zabaleta and he left the pitch with a splattered nose as the pressure built on a home side that for the second time in four days running was on the end of a post-break revival. Spurs though couldn’t create anything more than half chances and the best opening of the lot came in the dying moments when Tevez - on for Silva – slipped another replacement, Patrick Vieira, into the box. His chip looked to have sealed matters but William Gallas popped up from nowhere to clear off the line. Buoyed by the crowd, City held on well and celebrated in style and Hart equalled Nick Weaver’s record number of clean sheets into the bargain. Now fingers crossed for the quick win double at Wembley on Saturday and the biggest Poznan ever seen! Don’t forget to join us in the build-up the most comprehensive you will find anywhere. Like this?
