[Archived] Other Premier League Happenings

Watching players?

I'd be very surprised if any manager left the country to go scouting players when the transfer window had just shut. I'd happily bet that none of the 19 other managers in the league went anywhere. Isn't that what scouts are for anyway?

[Amo]

Isn't that what scouts are paid for?

Sam did well on the ITV panel in the face of the inanities of Townsend and Sherringham. I like to see Rovers managers raising their own and the club's profile like this. Hughes and Souness always did the club proud as well.

Correct. I frequently wonder how Townsend has got where he has.

Good read on English player in the Premier league, with a table at the end for the number of players per club.

Oh I don't know, - he's quite good at telling us what we already knew.

Watford have taken the lead against Chelsea, still 20 mins to go though

[DE.]

Portsmouth 2-0 Man City.

That's the result we should have had against City too. Good result for Portsmouth, terrible result as far as we are concerned.

[brfcshabba]

2-1 Chelsea

[Mr. E]

so chelsea are the only team that get a cup win today.

Football, such a fair game.

Portsmouth 2-0 Man City.

That's the result we should have had against City too.

Most important result of the day from our point of view.

Portsmouth this week, Newcastle last week, Stoke the week before : all the lower teams are managing to eke out a win.

Where's our next 3 points coming from ?

[Eddie]

Jim, didn't you notice the wins we had during our season changing unbeaten run against most of our relegation rivals?

Will Harry Houdini, have one great escape left this season.

Will he chose himself or spuds ????

Spuds will be the easier option, no doubt about that one.

Bullard out for the season according to SSN breaking news! Dodged a bullet there - if our interest was true.

[Hughesy]

Crock!! Im sure Fulham knew it too, hence why they wouldnt give him his £50k contract.

[LeChuck]

Haha, oh I really hope Hull go down now. If I was AESF I'd be using the search function to bring up the quotes from people who thought he was great signing (30 year old journeyman with dodgy knees for £5 million ). Hull will hardly see any of that fee back when he moves and they'll probably have paid Bullard millions to sit in the physio's room. Brilliant.

Boro still 0-0 against Wigan

Stoke have just scored a pen to make it 1-1 with Pompey

Make that 2-1 to Stoke

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

I didn't even know Stoke or Pompy had scored. Bloody BBC.

2-1 Stoke.

Oh sh....

[bobsterbrfc]

shwoddy woddy

[brfcshabba]

2-2

[Ricky]

2-2 now at stoke.

Good result for us if it stays the same.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Good. (I think)

[DeadlyDirk]

Good. (I think)

Just need Wham to nick a goal and everyone who is around us has drawn today.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Bolton 2-1 West Ham

Pompy 2-2 Stoke

Full time.

Not Premiership, but with no Setanta and Mrs A not quite ready to go to the pub yet, it was great seeing Johnny Stead score at Loftus Road.
