Premier league fixtures 24th-26th September

[Daniel 7]

I hate Warnock and his stupid blow dried, old age woman's hairstyle. He looks like a hairdressing model for lady pensioners

[Shaggy]

Can't get over how negative McLeish has made Villa. His Villa team makes Houllier's look swashbuckling

Neville talking about what an "excellent manager" McLeish and his "outstanding credentials".

What the ****? This same guy doesn't rate Benitez.

How is it so many ****e British managers like Hodgson, McLeish etc manage to pull the wool over the eyes of so many British pundits? It can't just be flag-waving patriotism, surely?

[RichC]

Probably as none of them are a threat to Emperor Fergie, Rafa was and the old cronies of Ferige in the press and pundits become poisionous towards them.

It's amazing the correlation between managers Fergie gets on with and how their perceived in the press

[Craig_H]

I think, if you take away the LFC-manc rivalry, and the fact that there was no love lost between the team Rafa managed and the team Neville played for, Neville probably would rate Benitez. Whether he admits it or not.

Casemore's point is true as well though. Sooner ferguson ****s off out of the game, the more balanced it'll become.

[dom9]

I think flag waiving has a lot to do with it. They are desparate for a British manager to be great again. Look at the England team FFS. That says it all.

[Craig_H]

But Kenny is a British manager....

[Craig_H]

Villa given a very strange penalty in a non-event of a game.

[Shaggy]

Peno Villa, WTF

[Craig_H]

Bannan scores. Villa 1-0 up and going above us

With Spurs game in hand, in 'real terms', we're 7th.

[Craig_H]

TBH, that was the only way McLeish's side were going to score.

[Assassin]

That has to be the worst pelanty decision of this season

[Craig_H]

That Faurlin fella should really accept reality and let someone else take the freekicks.

[BobTheCharmer]

Who cares where the **** we are at this stage. Well ok some of you do but i don't think it matters much.

[dom9]

But Kenny is a British manager....

And the media love him too.

They are desperate for someone else to come in and pick up the batton though.

[Craig_H]

Well our position now has a direct correlation with our chances of finishing in the position we want to finish.
