Also anyone know what the significance is of Liverpool fans throwing socks on the pitch??

From BBC:

Goodison Park is littered with socks thrown by Liverpool fans. Apparently that's in reference to a derogatory term for people from Kirkby - the location for Everton's proposed new ground .

The saying in Liverpool is that in Kirkby, they steal your socks.

Haha, i thought it was hilarious. [icon_lol1.

So throwing stuff at Baines when hes doing a throw ins fine, but letting Gerrard know hes soft for coming off isn't??

Tho I must admit its quite funny [icon_wink

[icon_lol1. [icon_lol1. [icon_lol1. That was awesome Ronnyd!

Does anyone else reckon Pool should go after Podolski in the summer? Would compliment Torres quite well IMO

I'd love that to happen. He would be rather cheap as well because he hasn't really done anything of note at Bayern.

Highly unlikely that we'd sign him IMO.

Podolski has re-signed for his old club Cologne as far as I know.

Michel Platini is a douchebag!

He was a great player but he speaks some rubbish! Thinks he can boot City out of Europe for bidding for players at what he deems inflated rates, is demanding Europe be given the 2018 WORLD Cup and isn't happy about Milan "buying" Beckham for 3 months (pretty sure it was a short term loan buddy) which he thinks could lead to people "buying" players for finals when you have to register players months in advance for European competitions. Platini is a turdbag.

 

[Beachy]

He's got no idea. An absolute fruit loop

 

[ningnangnong]

Yeh the man's a dickhead.

I don't want to sound all conspiracy theorist but the fella is an absolute ****. He cannot stand the fact that the English league and teams are so successful these days. Goes back to his days as a player i think. Anyway he's a big fanny and can **** off.

P.S. MB, are Barca ever going to lose again? [icon_lol1.

 

[Black Philip]

Platini is a fu*king dick. In the same boat as Jack Warner as far as I'm concerned. Europe probably should have the 2018 world cup, but only cause 2010 and 2014 are in the southern hemisphere. Suggesting to kick city out of Europe is ridiculous though. It's a shame a **** like him has such a high status in football.

Scolari is gone after Chelsea got rid of him overnight. Portsmouth also dumped Adams (no surprise).

Be interesting to see who Chelski bring in, with Aussie Guus a strong tip.

Van Gaal as replacement, i guarantee it.

If it's not him, well then it'll probably be Riijkard.

 

[Black Philip]

I expected Adams to go (as did everyone) but Scolari? Didn't see that coming just yet. God I hate Chelsea... so, so much.

How f##king dumb is Roman really??? He has a manager with a brilliant record and the team is performing well considering its limitations, Scolari needed to get some fresh talent in because the squad is not nearly as good as it has been, so instead Roman fires him and will obviously pay him out to buy in a new manager. They have one player with flair in the whole squad and its there right back Bosingwa outside of him the guys are good players who will do the job but as Man U and Liverpool to an extent are showing without guys like Ronaldo, Berbatov, Rooney, Torres and Gerrard the big games are hard to win. Lampard is a good player as is Ballack but they are not creative nor do either Anelka or Drogba have the ability to break a match by themselves. They had one guy who could in Robben and they gave him away because they had Malouda as "adequate cover" LOLZ. They needed Kaka or Robinho or even Arshavin in the last window so badly because they as Scolari kept complaining don't have a creative player within the sqaud.

Why do you think Van Gaal, is it worth laying money down cos he is quite long???

Don't blame me if i am wrong!

Anyway i have an inside tip. Sounds so unreliable i know. [icon_lol1.

I'd throw $5 on, couldn't hurt.

Has anyone seen the highlights of Spurs v Shakthar? ROFL. First goal is Gomes at his retarded best and the second is collectively one of the worst defended pieces of play your likely to see. They are hopeless!
