Just a bit weird that you asked for an evaluation of a match on thursday. And with all due respect you were trying to get a reaction from Baa Baa with the post but he didn't rise to it. :tsk:
Its called banter, we've been at it for years! :thumb:

That's me not rising.

Have you seen this horrible old bastard interviewed by Kenny Dalglish Daughter?




The English media headline? Horrible old fart has a go at at a female journo? Fergie losing faith in 18 million pound keeper?

No!

Fergie 1 Dalglish 0 :mrgreen:

Liverpool have announced an investigation after young striker Nathan Eccleston made a controversial post about the September 11 atrocities on Twitter.

Eccleston, 20, marked the 10th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon, as well as the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 in Pennsylvania, by doubting that terrorists were responsible the attacks.

He described the death of 2,977 people as an "accident" and appeared to subscribe to a conspiracy theory that a secret society known as the 'Illuminati' were involved.

His unedited tweet read: "R.I.P all 9-11 victims my thoughts are with their family's and all those that was affected by this tragic accident!"

"I ain't going to say attack don't let the media make u believe that was terrorist that did it. #OTIS."

'OTIS' reportedly stands for 'Only The Illuminati Succeed'.

Though Eccleston later deleted the tweets, his comments sparked outrage on Twitter and Liverpool's American owners have opened a probe into the incident.

The club told the Liverpool Echo in a statement: "The club takes this extremely seriously and we have informed Nathan Eccleston that we are investigating these postings and will decide on an appropriate course of action."
Oh dear, I do wish English pro footballers would stick to football and leave thinking to normal human beings.
Mind you, I can't really see why LFC have to get involved.
This is the way

Possibly because Liverpool pay his wages and he's representing the club.

He comes across as a bit of a dick apart from this incident anyway and wouldn't have quite made it.

How bad can Arsenal get? 4-2 down against Blackburn at the mo, and its fascinating to see how invisible a new 6' 6" defender can be!

Well it can't get much worse :cuss:

You can't gift the opposition 2 og's, both conceded under no real pressure, not matter who you're playing :?
One of the goals was clearly offside (where do they get these assistants from, Broadmoor?).
That by no means excuses the woeful defensive performance.

Wenger's walking on very thin ice at this present time, even the most ardent AKB's are beginning to lose faith :|

Stands for Arsene Knows Best :roll: , i'm sure at some point you've seen the banners at the Emirates.
They are basically Arsenal supporters who have blind faith in the methods of AW & that he can do no wrong :roll:

My old man's one, a source of many family rows!! :mrgreen: , he's gradually beginning to turn though :|

Well, the AKB's will probably say they have been proved right - he managed to reduce the goals against by 50% after just one game! Quite an achievement, really, considering the state of their defence. 8)
