Upside Down

"The number of aerial duels in the average match has fallen. Goalkeepers are playing more short passes, and kicking it long less and less. Direct speed, a measure of how quickly teams move up the pitch, is in decline. Pass completion is at its height, and so too is the number of passes in the average spell of possession. " - Yes, and it's so fucking boring and many times ineffective. Watch a premier league game from the late 90s or early 2000s and tell me it isn't far more entertaining than the shit they serve up today. Yes some games were absolutely awful but at least teams back then played to their own strengths and the players were allowed the freedom to express themselves. Football is a simple game. When you have the ball in your own box and you are under pressure, get it fucking cleared. Unless you are classic Brasil or 09 era Barcelona then you aren't good enough to meddle about in that situation. I am with @AllRoverAsia, give us the stats for goals conceded from fucking about in your own box.

Sorry once again @roverandout Not been a great time for you recently.

Black Sabbath - Hand Of Doom

They would have been better staying in India.

Rounders > Baseball Netball > Basketball League > American Football All inferior versions of pre existing games.

Duke Ellington - Satin Doll

Hopefully that is the case. Sometimes it is really difficult to put into words just how fucking stupid that question is.

I'm game for anything at this point. There is no moving forward whilst venkys are here.

Too early to write us off yet. At least we haven't been absolutely shocking like some of last season's performances. Just unlucky and not tight enough in defence. Not having a proper finisher is hurting but that's nothing new.

No team sports though. They just created their own shit versions of games that already existed elsewhere.

The Doors - People Are Strange

So 1-0 win in the playoff final with a penalty then?

The Hollies - Just One Look

The Beach Boys - In My Room

When he scored on his debut with a quality finish you could tell he was going to be good.

The Who - Run Run Run

Kate Bush - Hounds Of Love

Now that is optimistic.

Hardly surprising that we keep doing business that is favourable to agents.

Waggot can't count past 100, he hasn't the brain capacity.

We have already given them a tonking this year and that was the reserves. I'm going to be optimistic and say we'll score another 5.

Should still be considered a real possibility. I do find it suspicious that we keep letting players leave for free. A free transfer usually means a bigger signing on fee (if you're a total piece of shit like waggot you steal the whole thing) and bigger wages, all of which an agent would get a percentage of.

Them - Here Comes The Night

I don't care who wins the premier league just as long as it's not spurs. Shit club with actual shit fans.

Fuck me this is the optimism thread. We're going on a winning streak that will shoot us up the table. Top two finish is on the cards.
