There's an FA Cup Manager of the Year?

What is all this shit?



In the NW alot of people refer to Scousers as "bin dippers" especially in a football context, bit of a light (or maybe not so light..?) insult. It's no a term which is specific to them but they will have known what they were doing there. Pretty shocking..that's the police force. Says it all about our police, though.

Same in brum. The police must have known this. Pretty poor.

SpursOfficial: 81 - Brilliant moment as referee Howard Webb got on the ball - only for Lewis Holtby to hack him down! Great stuff.

lol

Ledley's team won 6-3, Louis Saha hat trick.
Nice one, Ledley.

I want to see more of Holtby next season.

Yeah, I knew the term bin dippers. I figured it was a bit of a nod and wink to that, but that it might be another term for pickpockets there in the UK as well so they could act like it wasn't a reference to LFC fans.
 
I fear his genuine quality as a world class footballer will be lost in retrospect to a lot of people due to him being a bit of a bell.

What happens when you're a bit of a bell though isn't it.

Definitely one of the most unliked United players who was actually good, probably the most unliked actually.

Not Fergie's finest moment. Wilcox: 'Fantastic research, Alex, except my name's Russ, not Bruce.'

Buzzer v Fergie

That's a war of words I have to see.

More and more he's becoming a comic book character.

How could you disagree with Pulis getting the award? Palace were THREE points from safety when he arrived with only 26 games left. Miracle!

It's all well and good binning Rio and fucking off backroom staff, LvG will live and die by how he deals with the world's most expensive potato.
 
Still think that everyone assuming LVG won't like Rooney is going to be bitterly disappointed.

It's not about not liking him - more putting him in his place and not building the team around him if it doesn't make sense.

And with Rooney, as we've seen...that will likely lead to one thing only.
 
A new contract?

nice

So Pulis is the Premier League Manager of the Year, but Rodgers is the overall Manager of the Year? That makes sense, Liverpool did much better in the cups.

First Liverpool boss as well. No surprise really.

7th to 2nd with a hint of the title.




Good thing Gaal is making decisions already. Little bit of culling needed.

Pretty harsh for Manuel Pellegrini that he wins two trophies in first season at Man City and not even among the top four

What. Won by 2 points while breaking FFP in a team with a net spend of over £80 million for 5 years running. Yeah, that'd have been deserved...

I agree, but I think Europe was what cost him. That silly miscalculation in the group stages.

Domestic domination, impressive as it was, was very much expected.
