Spreading rumours about Cyrille being gay is inappropriate...he only likes ladyboysOriginally Posted by Dandyhole
that's a bit like west brom congratulating man city on winning the league, we were hardly in competitionOriginally Posted by cyrille
noon, however, was liverpool.... assuming he would have put his head above water to gloat if he'd won it on the last day of the season, he should at least pop up to be gloated over.
also, he could gloat over jebus and jimmy and aaron
it would be a good old circle gloat
I'd like to gloat over ken and a few others, but when you look at their teams and realise they've got players who've been injured for months (benteke, mirallas and rodriguez for ken) it kind of loses its appeal
still, I beat fred dagg, which is that idiot kiwi.... can't remember his name
2090 is my highest ever points total.... but got me a rank of 685,000 and 14th in the SZ league
1st year I got 1793, rank of 660,000 and 1st in the SZ league
Oh, how things have changed
Only decent year I've had was 2011/12 with 2036 points, rank of 106,000 and 2nd in the SZ league
You didn't beat meOriginally Posted by NickA
I said I beat that idiot kiwiOriginally Posted by Bruce Bayliss
if you identify yourself with the tag "idiot kiwi" then that's not my problem
Where is the cut off point of the 'congratulations zone', Nick?
obsarmy - 14
fred dagg - 16
seems clear to me.
Some eye watering numbers here:
Manchester City earn £96.5m for successful Premier League season | Football | theguardian.com
The champions Manchester City earned £96.5m last season, according to figures published by the Premier League, a sharp rise from the £60.8m Manchester United earned from winning the league a year ago.
In fact, Cardiff earned more from finishing bottom of the Premier League than United earned as champions, the Welsh club receiving £62.08m for finishing 20th this term.
The league's new £5.5bn broadcast deal was behind the increase in payments, with second-placed Liverpool the top earners on £97.5m, a consequence of more of their games being screened live by broadcasters.
Each club's payment is made up of 50% of UK broadcast revenue which is split equally between the 20 clubs; 25% of it depends on where the club finishes in the final league table; and the final 25% comes from fees each time a club's matches are broadcast in the UK.
Premier League payments to clubs for 2013-14
1) Liverpool £97,544,336
2) Man City £96,578,329
3) Chelsea £94,106,163
4) Arsenal £92,870,080
5) Tottenham £89,663,884
6) Manchester United £89,161,831
7) Everton £85,027,727
8) Newcastle £77,379,252
9) Southampton £76,915,298
10) Stoke £75,679,215
11) Swansea £74,173,056
12) West Ham £73,671,003
13) Crystal Palace £73,207,049
14) Aston Villa £72,666,897
15) Sunderland £71,700,890
16) Hull £67,026,634
17) West Brom £65,790,551
18) Norwich £64,554,468
19) Fulham £63,318,385
20) Cardiff £62,082,302
Total £1,563,117,350
The Scouse still have the appeal.
If they can keep Suarez and get Lallana....big if.....
With leicester talking about spending massive money and qpr also possibly coming up clubs like west brom, west ham and villa had better get busy with the cheque book this summer or they are heading down.
As it all just becomes more and more about money i've never cared less about my team.
They've been really shite this season ciz...Originally Posted by cyrille
What would you like to see?
I'd like to see us playing in fkn stripes for a start.
After that, well, a striker, two central defenders, a left back, right back, couple of midfielders.
All under 28.
We need that as a minimum.
10 players out of contract right now including, ridiculously, our most improved player Billy Jones.
We won't be getting to work on it early though. Why start paying them now when we won't need them until august?
QPR will shake things up next season
The all important Australia provisional World Cup Squad:
Goalkeepers: Mark Birighitti (Newcastle Jets), Eugene Galekovic (Adelaide United), Mitchell Langerak (Borussia Dortmund), Mat Ryan (Club Brugge).
Defenders: Jason Davidson (Heracles Almelo), Ivan Franjic (Brisbane Roar), Curtis Good (Dundee United, on loan from Newcastle), Ryan McGowan (Shandong Luneng Taishan), Matthew Spiranovic (Western Sydney Wanderers), Alex Wilkinson (Jeonbuk Hyundai), Luke Wilkshire (Dinamo Moscow), Bailey Wright (Preston North End).
Midfielders: Oliver Bozanic (Luzern), Mark Bresciano (Al Gharafa), Joshua Brillante (Newcastle Jets), James Holland (Austria Vienna), Mile Jedinak (Crystal Palace), Massimo Luongo (Swindon Town), Matthew McKay (Brisbane Roar), Mark Milligan (Melbourne Victory), Tommy Oar (Utrecht), Tommy Rogic (Melbourne Victory), Adam Sarota (Utrecht), James Troisi (Melbourne Victory), Dario Vidosic (Sion).

Shit...the NZ team have more reps in the EPL than the AussiesOriginally Posted by W Sydney Wandererers
I can only think of 1 kiwi in the EPL: Winston Reid.
Weakest Aussie side in at least 20 years but at least they have a good cosmopolitan mix of experience in leagues across Europe and Asia. Not all about the EPL. Still, the number of Aussies in the EPL and top leagues of europe generally has very much dwindled in recent years.
What are the NZ team doing in June by the way
everyone who was in with a chance.... so down as far as GarethOriginally Posted by cyrille
Many thanks trist.Originally Posted by NickA
The FIFA world cup fantasy is open for registration.
Can't select your squad 'til June 8th however....
A few changes to the structure.
Have to choose an initial squad of 23 with an extra 5 free positions.
Bonus points for pass completion and shot attempts.
Should be interesting!
