My Random Observations

[ebenezer]

Les Ferdinand is a terrible pundit.

[VzN]

Not as bad as some ex spurs/chelsea players that nobody has ever heard of on sky

[raZor]

Andy fucking Gray. Enough said.

Wait one more thing....he's a wanker.

[Liathroidi Mor]

Jamie Rednapp...........Pl ease!!!

[ebenezer]

2. Gus Poyet has no eyebrows. :confused:

3. The new American Derby owner calls his team 'The Durby County Rams.' :lol!:

4. Matt Derbyshire is a good player.

[Mr.Mister]

The only match on terestrial(sp) tv tonight is the Northern Ireland one.

[EL TORO]

Ian Wright is the worst pundit of all time. A classic case of the Engurland fan on tv. Christ, he's so bad he makes John Barnes look like a seasoned pro on TV.

Most of that is because his son plays, he's better on the radio.

[Teknique]

Curbs says 'Perhaps' a lot but pronounces it as P'raps

[Wasted and wounded]

Most pundits are shit, especially Merson and Townsend. The best is the much maligned Graham Taylor on 5 live, by far the only one who gives a real insight into the game. Giles can be good too, but tends to let the mouthy drunk in the corner interrupt him too much.

Jesus, have you ever listened to him on Talksport??? An absolute clown.

[stevetharlear]

Pleat commentating on Spurs matches is a must, non-stop self congratulating, how he 'saw something' in Keane, how he brought everyone to the club etc...

yes he his but he is not half as bad as Adrian Durham, but you can't take them seriously.

The Championship :

Tony Pulis is performing an immense job at Stoke.
Gary Johnson is carrying out splendid work at Bristol City.

However, this season's Championship is inferior to any other I can recall.

1. Stoke
2. Watford
--------------
3. Bristol City
4. West Brom
5. Charlton
6. Ipswich
--------------
7. Burnley
8. Plymouth
9. Hull

Imagine how feeble these sides would be in the Premier League :?:

[ebenezer]

Fabio Rochemback should be put down.

Utter embarrassment. :oops:

[raZor]

Fabio Rochemback should be put down.

Once on the books of Barca.

[ebenezer]

Decent Striker Alert :

Lisandro Lopez (Porto).

After travelling to the Iberian Peninsula regularly to perform extensive scouting.

I recommend a top team to move for Lopez in the close season.

Yours truly,

Not any more.

[ho chi feen]

Ryan Giggs' eyes are awfully close together.

[Rebel Yell]

Ryan Giggs' eyes are awfully close together.

Possibly caused by the weight and downward tension on the facial/neck area caused by having Nine Premiership winners medals hanging around his neck...the tenth in a few weeks time may cause irreversible locking together of both eye sockets ....

[3pointplay]

Igor Biscan was a crap player.

could you get an anti-post quote on Hull getting relegated next season??

dead certs surely

[ebenezer]

could you get an anti-post quote on Hull getting relegated next season??

dead certs surely

20/1 ON.

[legend76]

20/1 ON.

Hull are 4-5 to get promoted, so you'd surely get slightly better antipost odds on them going straight down again

[ebenezer]

If they go up, the odds on them going straight back down would probably be something crazy like 1/20.

No less than 1/10 deffo.

Edit : I'm not taking into account the potential strengthening of the squad.

totally agreed there, but I'm talking about an anti-post bet, before they've even gone up

[ebenezer]

Difficult to estimate.

[AmadeusDC]

Ryan Babel has the worst first touch of any player in the Premier League.

Another two goals tonight against Benfica. :cool:

You'll Never Walk Alone just being played on 96FM.

I heard 2 seconds of it.

I could kill now.

[ebenezer]

Forest promoted.

Notts County stay up. :D

Derby relegated. :lol!:

Leicester relegated. :lol!:

We are the top team in the East Midlands.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a sad note, Nigel Clough's Burton failed in the play-offs. :(

They blew it in the first leg. 2-0 up with 12 minutes to go. Ended up 2 each.

Lost the return leg 2-1 last night. Beaten 4-3 on agg.

[ebenezer]

Delighted for Roy Hodgson.

I love his voice. It's funny. :D

[raZor]

Observations:

Why has the pitch at Fratton Park got big humps in the 6 yard box most notably at the right end when looking at matches on tv and I'm not talking about Sol Campbell ;)

Why does Harry Redknapp refuse to talk to the BBC yet their sponsored by BBC Sport?

[ebenezer]

Sorry Raze.

No answers for ya.

I just created this thread to put my thoughts in.

Instead of starting thread after thread about random Scroogisms.

[raZor]

Wasn't looking for answers Eb just throwing them out there.

Brainfarting as it were.

What a fucking traitor.

Lifelong Forest fan off to Derby.

What a fat Judas/traitor cunt.

If this cunt moves to Derby (http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11719_353327 6,00.html)

He claims to be a lifelong Forest fan.

Forest make Commons offer :

Skysports.com understands Nottingham Forest have tabled a new contract offer to Kris Commons to stop him moving to rivals Derby.

Derby are interested in signing Commons and are ready to offer him a lucrative deal to lure him to Pride Park.

Rams boss Paul Jewell is a big fan of the classy midfielder and wants Commons to be the first of many new faces at the relegated outfit.

Commons' current deal at Forest expires in June and he is weighing up his options before deciding his future.

With Forest having secured promotion to the Championship they have now turned their attentions to trying to secure Commons' long-term future.

Forest have held talks with Commons and they are now waiting to see if the winger will decide to extend his stay at the City Ground or move on.

Today :

Derby complete deal for Commons :

Derby County have completed the signing of former Nottingham Forest midfielder Kris Commons on a three-year deal.

Commons, 24, was released by Forest last week after telling boss Colin Calderwood he did not want to renew his contract at the City Ground.

Chairman of football Adam Pearson told BBC Radio Derby: "Any player who comes from Forest shows a desire to play for Derby rather than taking an easy route.

"Kris could have gone to a lot of other clubs but he'll take it in his stride."

Commons is the first player to make the switch from Forest to arch-rivals Derby since defender Gary Charles in 1993.

But Pearson has no doubts Commons can cope with the controversial move.

"He's a brave footballer and he's a good footballer and he'll get great support from the Derby supporters," Pearson said.

Boss Paul Jewell told the club's website: "This is a gem of a signing and a terrific boost that Kris has decided to join Derby over the numerous other clubs who were also keen top secure his signature.

"He is a player who can unlock doors. He has that X-factor and is a genuine match-winner."

Calderwood had expected the out-of-contract midfielder to remain with the Reds following their promotion-winning League One campaign.

Commons, who can play on the left or as an attacking midfielder, joined Forest from Stoke and played more than 150 games for the City Ground club.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Looking forward to hearing stories of Commons being attacked, if the ''lifelong Forest fan'' dares to have a night out in Nottingham.

Also, when Derby visit The City Ground next season, Commons might be conveniently injured.

On a sad note, Nigel Clough's Burton failed in the play-offs. :(



Or, as they seem to be known in non-league circles, NCBA...

[ebenezer]

Rob Earnshaw (Nottingham Forest) is the only player to have scored hat-tricks in the Premiership, Divisions 1, 2, and 3, the FA Cup, the League Cup, and in an International :

Premiership : West Brom vs Charlton, 19 March 2005.

Division 1 : Cardiff vs Gillingham, 19 September 2003.

Division 2 : Cardiff vs Q.P.R., 29 November 2002 and Tranmere March 14, 2003.

Division 3 : Cardiff vs Torquay United, 12 February 2000.

FA Cup : Cardiff vs Bristol Rovers, 19 November 2000.

League Cup : Cardiff vs Boston United, 11 September 2002, and Leyton Orient, August 12, 2003.

International : Wales vs Scotland, 18 February 2004.

:cool: :cool: :cool:

[legend76]

how many hat-tricks will he score for Forest ???

[ebenezer]

I'll put it this way :

If Calderwood wasn't in charge, there is no doubt in my mind that Earnie would be the top scorer in the Championship next season.

[ebenezer]

Guess how many centre-halves Clownderwank started with tonight :?:

6 of 'em.

I'm not spoofing.

[ebenezer]

Dave Jones (Cardiff manager & Scouser) has called Forest fans ''fools'' & ''morons''.

Eb - how does Lee Camp fit into the traitorship deal - having done Derby, NCBA and now Forest? (Admittedly, Forest & NCBA have been loans!)

[ebenezer]

Straightforward enough question.

Straightforward enough answer : I'm a hypocrite. It's convenient, at times.

Nah. Camp & Commons are two completely different situations, IMB.

Come on Eastwood. Nottingham-based club. :cool:

Arsenal's kids are totally overrated. Van Persie was the only bit of class on view in a red shirt.


So much for the 'great' Arsenal youngsters. :lol!:

Is the Championship better than the Premier League :?:

Define better?

Higher quality - No

More exciting - Definitely. Lack of consistancy means bottom team can beat top team, results totally unpredictable.

Both Championship teams beat their Prem League opponents last night.

[ebenezer]

The Championship is ace.

[ebenezer]

I was a bit unsure when Martin O'Neill forked out whatever it was for Ashley Young.

About a year ago, my mate told myself that Young was quality.

I would have to agree now.

Very good wideman. He's like an old-fashioned winger.

A breath of fresh air when you have the likes of Ronaldo in the game.

[kevinbitzz]

Imperative he signs permanently.
