Season starts here

[Reece]

I'm sure if Chavski/manure/arse had got the injuries to players that we have had this international break then they would be moaning. I mean come on ffs, Mourinho will moan about absolutely anything!

Chavski/manure/arse

Hey Paul, I even find this funny when it was meant seriously

[Morph]

talk about football. thanks.
Now go in the corner.

Rafa's using excuses because of internationals and thats getting on my tits. Chelski, Arse or Manure have all as many international players as us...He should focus on his team and stop complaining about international football or calendar. We have been ****e so far and that has nothing to do with international games.

Have they all had to bed in 6 new players into their squad, I'm sure they all think the same way. Arsenal have underperformed, and so have Chelsea by their standards. The mancs have coped fairly well in comparison, but that's because they were below par last season, so it wouldn't take much for an improvement.

Rafa said at the start we wouldn't see the true level of the players until November, and if that's how it is then so be it, we might have had a slow start in comparison, but we've had tougher games I would wager. Let's wait till the end of the season, and see if our fitness pays off in the end.

Off to the corner you go.

Excuses, excuses...Like a kid ...you defo go to the corner
Manure below par last season? 2nd with 83 points, 1 point above us if you had forgotten
Tougher games? bollocks
Wenger and Benitez are the ones who are always complaining about international games. calendar, injuries blah blah. Its the same for every top team. No excuse

[mersey86]

Yes, let's start again. Can somebody reset the points totals to zero please?

I think you'll find Mourinho is always complaining about the games Chelsea have to play after a CL game. Same thing IMO.

[Rich]

I think we have to accept that we haven't started the season too well, obviously a huge number of factors why, but at least the silver lining is that we aren't far away and many of our tough away fixtures have come and gone.

The run up until Christmas is vital now, we need to put together a good 10-15 game unbeaten streak.

[WILF]

Ok so the season starts now, we obviously expect to win our home games, Saturday being no exception, but the season REALLY starts the weekend after at Old Toilet, that is one game we have to win if we are going to se any progres this season.

Now I know that you can say" ah well it is only one game" and we could go on a winning run of 25 games afterwards but I think the players confidence( on both sides) will be greatly affected by the result. Last year was absolutely gutting for our lads, a last minute winner from cokehead and "owngoal Gary" orgasming all over the place, then we finish one point behind the Manc w@nkers.
So assuming(the mother of all fcuk ups I know) we beat Blackandblue we MUST beat the scum.





Note : I have been drinking toooo much sake and hate the fcuking mancs

Thank you, this is the point I've just been making in a discussion with a Blackburn fan. Ilustrates that we have got some difficult games early on, not helped by early starts.

[Le Chacal]

Where have I said that?

I was replying to Morphorino's post...

[Morph]

no it isn't you fool, it shows there's a very big imbalance between the 'top 4' teams, in relation to kick off times, and we've had the arse end of it so far this season. Also we've had the greater share of away games, 3 of which are in 5 of the toughest we'll have all season, and the other 2 are to follow. It's ridiculous to say we've had a bad start, when we have nothing to compare it against, yet.
