arcadia 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 According to the Independent Keane is heading back to Tottenham for 15million. That works out at just over a million per goal scored. Still, I think he has every right to feel he was shafted by Benitez. Link to post Share on other sites

arcadia 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Have always liked Keane and think he would fit in well with Torres: but Benitez, control freak that he seems to be, clearly thinks otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites

ShinyDiscoBall 2 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 And in other news Quote: Frank Lampard will see his three-match ban wiped out by the FA today after referee Mike 'Alien Head' Riley admitted he made a horrible mistake on Sunday at Anfield. Lampard’s red card in the 2-0 defeat to Liverpool will be overturned by an FA disciplinary commission after 'Alien Head' Riley accepted his error. Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 One thing Liverpool don't need is fewer match winners. Another transfer window, another mass of hype about very little indeed. And I don't just mean Newcastle. Over the pond, the Superbowl was amazing yet again. In spite of all the cheerleaders and glitz and advertising time-outs, the Americans can create real sporting drama. Edge of the seat stuff. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Is Keane himself to blame for this silly waste of money? Or Rafa for just not playing him? Annoying waste of money. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Keane was fine, his attitude was fine, never said anything in the press. In one of his later games I saw him say 'f-off' when he saw his number up for substitution but the press didnt seem to pick up on it. He did OK in the games he played, and remember he played a lot at the start of the season when we were on fire even though he wasn't scoring. I think it was a mistake to get rid of him, he should have been given more playtime in place of kuyt. The loss of face at 12M is bad enough. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Quote: Two goals from Steven Thompson and another from Wade Elliot gave Burnley a 3-1 FA Cup fourth round replay victory over Premiership West Brom and continued their giantkilling efforts in cup competitions. Albion scored a consolation through Gianni Zuiverloon but could not prevent Burnley taking a fourth Premier League scalp of the season. The Championship outfit had earlier bundled Fulham, Chelsea and Arsenal out of the League Cup and went agonizingly close to also overcoming holders Tottenham in an epic semi-final. Burnley next play the winners of the Arsenal versus Cardiff replay which was postponed due to heavy snow. AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE Arse V Cardiff? Hard to call. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Looking forward to the everton game tonight. I couldnt care less in the earlier game but somehow the chelsea win has galvanised me and I've got my hopes up about the treble ;-) Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Got this sent to me last night, interesting. Never really got why Shearer is so unliked in some quarters. Quote: 20. Touts “Got any spares?†No. Get a job. 19. The offside rule “The most ridiculous thing in any sport,†one reader from California said. “Trying to time release of the ball with the position of potential receivers is full of judgment errors. It is unenforceable and it slows the game and scoring.†18. David Beckham Will he stay at LA Galaxy or will stay at AC Milan? Who cares? 17. The ball In the old days the ball used to be weigh a ton, especially if it had been raining, so scoring from distance was actually quite difficult. Nowadays balls are so light that even David Bentley can score from the halfway line. 16. Alan Shearer “What about Alan Shearer? Probably the most boring man on the planet. He might have scored a few goals but he talks utter rubbish.†Barry, Oldham. 15. Harry Redknapp Seems like a nice enough bloke but lots of people don’t like him. 14. Shirt sponsorship deals Best Premier League kit this season? West Bromwich Albion. Why? They’re not flogging us anything. 13. No standing The atmosphere at most Premier League matches these days is terrible because there are too many plastic seats and not enough away fans. Bring in safe standing areas and let in more away fans. Problem solved. 12. Booing your own players Just wrong. Every team needs at least one useless player. Deal with it. 11. Alan Green Radio 5 Live commentator who thinks his opinions are more important than the match he is covering. 10. Mike Ashley “He has truly spoiled my beloved team and more to the point has let the Premier League’s best goalkeeper slip through his clammy chubby money grubbing fingers. If he wasn’t prepared to spend money why buy a football team playing in the world’s most competitive league? Why not buy a lower league club that wouldn’t cost as much?†Kevin Longstaff. 9. Premier League records “The fastest goal in Premiership history? The best defence in Premiership history? The longest losing streak in Premiership history? These statistics are meaningless - football wasn't invented in 1992.†Tracey, Hornsea. 8. WAGs Sven-Goran Eriksson’s legacy as England manager? Airheads who think that going out with Marcus Bent will give meaning to their sad, miserable lives. 7. Diving “No. 1 should be diving! The worst thing about football is how some players (and you probably know who I'm talking about) hit the ground every time someone sneezes in their direction. Too bad money can't buy character.†Joe, Colorado, USA. 6. Ticket prices Gates are falling in the Premier League, so maybe clubs will wake up and smell the coffee. Watching Arsenal shouldn’t be more expensive than going to the Royal Opera House. 5. Manchester United “I’d love it. I’d just love it if they fall apart when Sir Alex Ferguson retires.†Chris, London. 4. Players Let’s face it. When we were kids, football players used to be worth worshipping. The majority of them were decent, down-to earth local boys who loved their clubs. Fast forward 30 years and the Premier League is full of spoilt, overpaid, preening mercenaries who have one thing on their mind – money. 3. Referees Are referees getting worse or have they always been useless? Both. Mike Riley proved it at Anfield on Sunday. 2. Sir Alex Ferguson The greatest manager of all time or evil, red-faced megalomaniac who gets away with murder? The jury is out. 1. Cristiano Ronaldo Portuguese winker we love to loathe. That should help motivate Ronnie no end! Link to post Share on other sites
