Did anyone see the Super Cup last week? UEFA Cup Champion versus Champions League winner and guess who took it, thats right LIVERPOOL.

We're the official champions of Europe! Victory is so sweet!

 

[Pikache]

Good game Real Betis vs Liverpool.

Tomorrow Man U scum vs Villareal 2:30pm EST on sportsnet

And those Hammers, they may be the dark horse of EPL this season maybe?

 

[winchable]

I think Man City will be the darkhorse if anyone, they've sort of stayed middles for many years (or in lower divisions) but now they're in 3rd.

And all the while us Scummers are just rotting away in the Coca Cola league...BAH...at least Pompey wanks this year.

Wot about me old Irons, then?  4- nil!!  Bloody marvelous...we're baaaaack!

 

[winchable]

I met a huge old irons fan in the UK...had a Mug which he faithfully filled everday...wore that damn jersey so much it was starting to fall apart at the seams.

 

[Pikache]

West Ham wins again...

Crazy.

 

[Kat Stevens]

Marlon Harewood's a bloody genius.  I see a scoring title for him, if he stays healthy.. ;D

 

[Pikache]

^Well, that first goal against Fulham was bloody marvelous.

 

[Kat Stevens]

0-0 Away to Arsenal!  The hits keep coming, folks!
Go, you Old Irons!

 

[Pikache]

I know... 4th in Premiership! And Bolton in 3rd...

 

[winchable]

Gentlemen I think football fans of the world have stepped through to an alternate dimension...

 

[RyanNS]

Well Liverpool got absolutley raped by the Italian ref today at Anfield. First the blantant tackle on Hyypia and then the handball by Gallas, both inside the box! What the hell was that all about? No justice at all. An Italian ref holding a lil grudge over last years Champ Leagues final where Liverpool staged the most dramatic come back in football history? I think so 

 

[Kat Stevens]

1-1 awat at Sunderland.  We'll take it, but it was the possibly the worst display from the Hammers  I've ever seen, and I've been a fan for 44 years, so I've seen some stinkers!

 

[Pikache]

Heh. I just ordered a Hammers jersey. They are putting on a good display so far, even if today's game kinda sucked.

Carroll is proving to be a good signing... Let's just hope that he doesn't pull his antics at Man U...

And I just noticed Chris Kirkland at West Brom. WTF?

 

[winchable]

Good lord lads,
1-1 against Sunderland, I DONT like the hammers and I was embarassed by that.
I'm a Soton fan, so there was a strange pleasure in watching a team in Southampton kit colours beating the pigs.

It's a good league this year, no question.

 

[Kat Stevens]

Another PPP from my beloved Old Irons.  Only redeeming feature was Bobby Zamora's last minute goal.  Back on form, then  :

 

[AmmoTech90]

Ladbrookes had Chelsea at over 400-1 to win the FA cup league right before play started this year.

Fricking 10 pounds now looks like it could very easily turn into 10,000 bucks..if the flutter had been taken.

Oh well, live and learn and open a Ladbrookes account.

 

[Pikache]

Actually, the Hammers had enough chances to make it a good game. It's just some luck on Man City's part.

Konchesky, Carroll and Benyaoun all proven to be quality signing so far. (And cheap too)

 

[Kat Stevens]

Konchesky kept it respectable, could have been a route
