Why doesn't the EPL play more matches on Friday? Its a good day for football. The lower profile matches are especially good for fridays.
Also US based Mexican league fans are getting screwed starting this weekend if you don't have Dish Network. The Clasico Regio is on the new Univision Deportes Network only.

Are you calling Newcastle games low profile?! :O
People go out and get drunk on Fridays.

All I know is, in terms of quality, it's probably going to be the greatest football match of all time.

Pato had a medical check-up this morning, unsurprisingly he has a muscular problem. He won't be available at least for two weeeks, then he'll do another check-up.
He probably finished his season this week and Galliani will have to go after another striker this summer. Thanks once again, Berlusconi.

I like Newcastle first of all. But is there much at take besides 5 or 6th?
Exactly.
Europa, man. Very important for us to get back into European competition after 9 years of absence.
My fantasy team this week is so hard to choose. The most difficult line up I've had to pick this year.
Viva you're near (on?) the top, shed some wisdom for me. I just noticed I have 107m team value and 2.3 in the bank. I think I may have the most "valuable" team in the league.
I really hate to leave two Swansea players on the bench while they play at home - their defensive record is incredible at the Liberty stadium, but Newcastle is on fire. Sigurdsson has been the absolute best contributor to my team over the last few weeks, particularly because my friends were too slow to pick him up, so I got tons of points while they slept on it.
Ugh. Considering taking out Young for either Taylor or Sig. Sig scores most of his goals away, so I'd think maybe Taylor would be better - but again, any defenders vs Newcastle is a risky proposition.
Does QPR concede goals from wingers or down the middle more? I could easily see Young playing as a sub for 10-15 minutes and getting nothing done. Then again, when he's on, he's on.

Does 6th not get a Europa spot?
Probably not this year. Depends on the FA I think. Liverpool are guaranteed a spot for winning the Carling cup and then whoever wins the FA Cup too I think.
Hopefully the FA give Newcastle a spot instead of Cardiff or whoever...
Young wont start if Nani and Valencia are both fit. i would pick Cisse instead of Bendtner.My fantasy team this week is so hard to choose. The most difficult line up I've had to pick this year.

Ordered myself FIFA on the 360 been waiting on a drop but£21 at tesco is as cheap as its gonna get I think
Yeah, that's essentially my worry. I was going to buy Cisse, but I don't see him scoring against Swansea on Friday. Swansea pretty much doesn't concede at home. I'd rather hold off on Newcastle transfers until after they play away at the Liberty.
Bendtner is playing almost as good as Cisse, and is at home to a somewhat leaky defense.
The question is, next week do I get rid of Young for Valencia or Ben Arfa, and do I get rid of Bendtner for Cisse or keep him and hope his form continues and Cisse's declines.
6th place gets Europa League if the two FA cup finalists are already in Europe (which is why you want to hope that Liverpool, Chelsea or Tottenham get to the final).
Dunno what's gwaning with Cardiff though. Maybe they get it as runners up to the Carling Cup if Liverpool are in the final of the FA Cup (they can't obviously have two Europa League spots so one of them would get bumped down as it's only fair as a Carling Cup runner up).
Most confusing shite in football.
Cardiff can F off tbh. Playing a 38 game league is far more deserving than a silly little tournament that you didn't even win.
Also, I want Everton to win. :lol
I remember watching the final at a Wetherspoons at an airport waiting for the flight to Ireland and at like the 88th minute had to leave to get the plane. I get out in Dublin and we're European champions haha
Stop please, Fady has not forsaken us. He is working on the most epic of multi quote post, covering the entire thread.
:/ please, ill trade Yurt for Fady, sorry Yurt but prioritys.
Must be a girl.
Sadly, it was not. Then again the person could not list the first team of either squad. Bloody gloryhunters.
That doesn't really count then. He's just a neutral fan of the sport than an actual club supporter.

Yeah I want Everton to win too. Man I'm so conflicted. Oh well, we're going to finish in the top 4 anyway so it doesn't matter

If we finished in the top 4 it'd be SO MASSIVE. The amount of money we'd get would be incredible for the club. God dammit.
Europa doesn't pay squat.Bububut Man United reject...
He shut down his Twitter account cos of people slagging him off, especially after the Arsenal game. :lol
Still, he's an unsung warrior.

It would be, it's really not outside the realms of possibility now. Chelsea have a shit ton of games to play where as we just have the 7 league games. Spurs have the FA cup to think about aswell.
It would be huge for the club, then again I'm more than happy with a Europa spot...it's just a shame the system is so fucked up we might end up getting screwed and get nothing for the fantastic season we've had.
except for newcastle, 11-20 are just gobshit teams who belong there in the real table

"Only Manchester United and Manchester City have picked up more points in 2012 than Newcastle."
HELL YEAAAA
The stats and history favour us. I'm hyped.

FFS, we're below Everton on every fucking table...
Tiote is probably the reason Newcastle is down there. He gets his yellow every match
Looking forward to Swanselona-Newcelona. Both teams have a talented midfield. And Ben Arfa is the new Messi according to Pardew. Then again maybe they just cancel each other out and grind a 0-0, but somehow I doubt that... My wish/prediction: 2-3, it'll be a free scoring game.

Best names ever.
Off the top of my head i think Newcastle has an easier run in as compared to Sunderland so Cisse might do better. Between Valencia and Ben Arfa i think Arfa is a better option since he is cheaper and they both are right now on equally good form.
For a moment I thought the kid to Welbz's left was Anderson.
