I missed out on a Champions League place
I'm gonna break the top 4 this time! Well, I will try.
At least you're not getting relegated. I'll try for mid-table, maybe.

Just went to the shop online...our current away kit is listed as 'change kit' on there so it looks like the red one is away
Pretty cool, I'm sure our original colours were red and black!
Used to be, but they cracked down a bit. I still look on there because a lot of people have similar movie taste, but the football talk and off topic in general is non existant.

Twenty posts in and I haven't even talked about football. Go figure.
This is the only forum I use. I haven't found one that is even remotely as good.
Our original kit:
Looks hideous :lol
I'd like Man City's version of red and black instead:
Yeah, same. Football's the thing I'm most passionate about, so I'm glad I found this place. I never go into Gaming side, actually came here for the OT instead of just staying for it haha.

I was beaten by a man that posts Tumblr gifs? Now it really hurts
Anyway, did I mention I saw the Avengers tonight? Great film, made me want to have sex with Scarlett Johannson even more than I did anyway. The mark of a good film that is.

That's a lie, because Match Point made me want to poke her into oblivion, but it was shite.
But yeah was good fun. Hulk was boss.
Any football on tomorrow apart from FA cup final?
Arsenal v Norwich.
Oh fuck you. That wouldn't be great at all...Would be great if Arsenal dropped points but very very unlikely.
Yeah, and it's nice and early so I don't need to wake up at 3am to watch RVP in action at the Emirates!
Yes it would
Since I don't expect a win on Sunday then it'd keep us in the race for CL.
And I can see RVP raging if you didn't get 3 points tomorrow.
It's going to be sad when he leaves this summer, End of an era really.

I think you need to check the table. If you lose on sunday, Arsenal's result is irrelevant when it comes to you finishing above them.

What if... Chelsea wins FA and CL?
Is such thing even possible?

Not if they draw or lose their final game and we beat Everton.
They're only 1 point ahead of us right now.
You are right, I was looking at Chelsea. Time for bed!!

There's funny thing happening in the Eredevisie now. UEFA has given an extra Europa League ticket for the Respect Fair Play Ranking. Currently, Heerenveen has the highest fair play ranking followed by Twente, Ajax and fourth is Excelsior.
This is the Eredevisie Table with only one match to go:
1. Ajax 33 73 90-35
2. Feyenrd 33 67 67-35
3. PSV 33 66 84-46
4. H'veen 33 64 77-56
5. AZ 33 62 63-35
6. Twente 33 60 80-42
7. Vitesse 33 53 47-40
...
16. Venlo 33 28 38-76
17. Graafschap 33 21 31-71
18. Excelsior 33 19 27-73
If the winner of the Fair Play ticket already has reached European football, then the next on the ranking gets it and so on. So if Heerenveen, Ajax and Twente all get through the play-offs, Excelsior will get the ticket and automatically reach the qualification round. And Excelsior will most likely be relegated by then.

So they'll do a Birmingham and play in Europe despite being in the second tier of their respective nation's footballing ladder?
I love it when that happens.
You should buy the third kit, Just because of how hideous it is. Truly an achievement.

Exactly. I was at an Excelsior match a few weeks back and I must say all the supporters are very laid back and down to earth. Would be amazing for the supporters to see their team play European matches, even though they won't be capable of actually winning those games.

Is that Alisha from Misfits in your avatar?
Maybe with Caroll

The pink one with the tribal pattern sleeves? Was that confirmed to be the legitimate third kit?
Yes just finished season 2 and would do nasty nasty things to Alisha, great show.
Would be great if Arsenal dropped points but very very unlikely.
Arsenal lost their last home game of last season. 2-1 defeat to Villa. I doubt they will lose tomorrow but if they draw they are in the shit with that horrible final game at West Brom.
Don't think so.
I think we'll be fine tomorrow. Don't think it will go well at West Brom though.
It will take a huge improvement from Norwich to stop us taking 3 points tonight. West Brom will be hard but even if we win tonight we will likely still need to beat West Brom next week.
Hard to see Spurs dropping anymore points.
If only it worked that way. I can see West Brom players putting in extra effort to see Hodgson off with a bang at our expense!
I think West Brom will be relatively easy since they have nothing to play for and Woy is leaving anyway. The players won't care about the result methinks.
Nothing has been confirmed as far as I know

Word. I'm currently in season three, started last week. Amazing show. Too bad the other female in the gang, Kelly, is such a fat slut. She's absolutely revolting if you ask me.

Tweet him, he's good fun on Twitter.Man, I miss Kermit
17th in the OT9 league, just about survived relegation!
Season 3 still good? I don't mind Kelly but Alisha omg.
Edit: when picking custom print for the new pool kit Merieles is still listed :/

I wish you guys would trust me on Warrior's quality. Actually I have a sick training pullover made by them that I wear almost daily. Pics to come.

Really like it thus far. Episode 4 is quite different, without spoiling too much.
Hard to post more when there's so much more EPL discussion than La Liga :x Maybe I should adopt a premiership team?

That, or just post stuff about La Liga. That will encourage fellow Spanish Football fans to post too.
If you do adopt a premiership team, pick Newcastle.
Like Blackburn. jk jk

I don't think there's any shame in supporting teams in multiple leagues. If you think you have some sort of a connection with a premier league team than go ahead.
It's always nice to have an extra Gunner around here. *wink wink*
Welcome to the winning team.
I made the switch over a year ago and never looked back. Love the browser.
I only dislike that ctrl+f window disappears when you click on a link.
