So, Stoke and Everton are the only two teams unbeaten at home, with Stoke unbeaten in their last 10. Damn!

I neither like nor dislike them. They just exist in the Premier League like an oddly bland cheese.
That's a bit rough though isn't it? They have defended horribly in games but they are exciting to watch and provide plenty of entertainment. It's good to see underdogs getting stuck in and having a go against the odds.

I wouldn't say their games are bland, there's been a lot of fun in a few of them. I just don't really care if they stay up or go down.

Just read that the Mansour Arabs wanted to buy us but Ashley added the debt price (180m) on top of the club sale price so they backed out and bought City instead.

FUCK EVERYTHING!

if true

LOLLLLLLL

I don't really understand why the Mansours bought City to be honest, irrespective of the trophies they've got already it still seems a bit of a fool's game to buy a club where there is one already so established and famous around the world. Newcastle probably would have been a very good shout, considering its the only club in the city.
 
Fergie also talked up his love for Pogba when contract talks broke down. Hopefully this time around we budge a little on the wage structure, especially given the rumour flitting about that Young is United's highest-paid winger. It's hard to fault Nani on wanting to leap-frog our bald swimmer.

You know who I am happy for? Chris Hughton. What a guy. Mike Ashley's a rat fucker for the way he treated him. I hope Norwich finish above Newcastle as a middle finger to him.

And Steve Clarke.

Two immensely likeable people doing very well for their clubs after both were written off before the season began.

Sounds like rubbish. Mansour was interested in Arsenal, but Usmanov is already one of the richest men in the world and so several offers were rejected. This is well known. Man City were the next logical choice I suppose. A club in a big city in England with big neighbours and a brand new stadium. Those three factors are the only redeeming qualities the club had in order to attract Mansour, as opposed to dozens of other middling clubs in England.

City fans have United to thank for the buyout. :|

I'm shitting myself for the day that somebody comes in for Everton.

They're already a better team than us due to stable building over the last few years, I couldn't handle it if they actually had resources.

Chelsea have lost at Goodison for the past 3 seasons. Everton haven't lost at home this season. Would do very well to get a win there.

I'm getting uncomfortable with how close Tottenham and Arsenal are. At least it's still 3 teams fighting for 2 spots. Hopefully Man City get dragged into it so it will be 4 fighting for 3.

And Demba Ba now linked with Chelsea. Wonder how many strikers will be linked by the end of the window.

My sleeping pattern's fucked. I went out last night, fell asleep at 7am and woke up at 11am. Then came home, fell asleep at around half 8 until half 10 and now I can't sleep.

Same here. Ended up at the casino at 6am then went to McDonalds for breakfast afterwards before going to bed. Think the hangover is from the McDs, not the alcohol.

The thing that annoys me about my predicament is I sit on here reading nonsense posts about Halo, and football, and people's masturbation habits, and I contribute too. If I invested that time into learning about physics, or nature, or fucking hairdressing, I'd be doing something productive.

Fuck, even if I just read one of the books on my shelf, I'd at least be doing something.

My brother's off to Goodison tomorrow the cunt, he won a ticket at work. Doesn't really watch football though so it's okay, he's not a blue or anything.
