Sadly, not as many EPL fans will be here with three of the four teams playing today at the bottom of the table.

The draws against Swansea City and Norwich were painful. A draw against Wigan is unthinkable.

LET'S GO REDS!

I hope Stoke beats the absolute hell out of Man City. Not necessarily on the scoreboard, just in general, on the scoreboard would be nice too though.

Nice pickup of Ibe, though: Liverpool sign teenager Ibe

bennett311: Langston: Sadly, not as many EPL fans will be here with three of the four teams playing today at the bottom of the table.

Surely, Bolton/Blackburn today will help decide which manager will be sacked next.

Only if Bolton lose. Venkys won't sack Kean, they farking love him.

KEAN OUT

Also, those of us stuck at work.

Same here for today and Thursday. But I'll be here for tomorrow's matches.

BTW, for all of the inevitable questions about streams; if you can access ESPN3, the following EPL matches will be available there.

Today- Blackburn v Bolton
Wednesday- Aston Villa v Arsenal, Wigan v Liverpool, Everton v Swansea
Thursday- Tottenham v Chelsea (also on ESPN2 for those who may have the day off)

Kean and Venky's need to go f themselves. Didn't I see a story that when Venky's bought Blackburn they didn't know that there was relegation in the EPL? LOL. So IOW they fired Alardyce because he cost too much, bought Kean in b/c he was cheap, and thought they could skate being bottom of the table.

Stupid idiots.

They hired Kean because he was a puppet who wouldn't rock the boat. He'll do whatever they say and they love that. Allardyce, while playing football that was at times unwatchable, got results and had his own methods of going about things that Venky's didn't like. They wanted a hollow shell of a man with absolutely no brain that they could work like a marionette. For Rovers fans, it's infuriating.

Here you go (new window)

holy crap, what a cross. the wolves. v norwich match has been pretty good so far.

689908: Suarez got an 8 game ban.

if that's true, that's an absolute joke of a decision. though not surprising, since the "offended" party was united.

/maybe a blessing in disguise for us, though.
//now we buy another striker in the window and get to see if carroll can earn his keep

socalnewwaver: if that's true, that's an absolute joke of a decision. though not surprising, since the "offended" party was united.

This is what scousers actually believe!!

wow. how did wolves miss that?

TonnageVT: This is what scousers actually believe!!

it's ok, wrap yourself in your warm, comforting blanket of ignorance.

when they said "If you ignore 689908 and TonnageVT epl threads become a far better place to be," i should have listened. but it's never too late to heed good advice.

You sound butthurt...no, wait, you are butthurt. Cry a little more maybe someone will pay attention to you.

TonnageVT: You sound butthurt...no, wait, you are butthurt. Cry a little more maybe someone will pay attention to you.

i'm confused. why would you being ignorant and myopic leave me butthurt?

/wait, don't answer, i wouldn't want you paying attention to me.

and wolves are level.

StRalphTheLiar: socalnewwaver: /maybe a blessing in disguise for us, though.

Chelsea has one they aren't really using... maybe they'll be willing to sell him.

&*^#$&(@#^&($@*( GODDAMNIT SO MUCH PEDERSON YOU FAIRY GET A farkING TACKLE IN

sephjnr: Calm down, Mr. Pot

oh please. whether it's fergie time or questionably escaping (or receiving lighter) sanctions, there are very few who would argue that united don't get favorable treatment. hell, you don't need to look any further than the recent rooney decision.

689908: Suarez got an 8 game ban.

Andy Carroll better start scoring.

StRalphTheLiar: Chelsea has one they aren't really using... maybe they'll be willing to sell him.

ha. i'm thinking we'll take him for £15 mil.

/as in, they pay us that much to take him

8 matches!? For insulting a Frenchman!? I thought England would want to adopt Saurez for that!

/Seriously, 8 matches is a farking joke.
//Players have intentionally attempted to injure opponents and gotten less than that.
///See Zidane, Z.

so will they charge evra with racial abuse for saying "Don't touch me, you South American"? or does that not count as referring to "ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race"?

/no, of course not, don't be silly.

sephjnr: If you think that was down to SAF

no, i don't think it was down to saf. the point is, the exchange that allegedly occurred (let's assume for the sake of argument that it did) started with evra making a comment about suarez's ethnic background. right in front of a ref. so suarez responds, and he's the only one who is charged. right. makes perfect sense.

socalnewwaver: i'm confused. why would you being ignorant and myopic leave me butthurt?

/wait, don't answer, i wouldn't want you paying attention to me.

me being ignorant? You're the one claiming that because it was against a United player, the penalty was so harsh. That's the epitome of ignorance, you dumb shiat.

sailorman_glh: The 8-game suspension will be dropped to 4 or 5 games on appeal based upon "language barriers."

I'm extremely anxious to hear the outcome of the Terry case to see if an England international gets a different sentence. I'm already skeptical of the FA, so I'm expecting different outcomes.

I'd love to be proven wrong, though.

You mean cockney does not qualify as a language barrier?

Liverpool has put out a very strong statement against the punishment and effective laid out their case for an appeal, including noting that Evra and the FA both said that Saurez is NOT a racist.

Also of note- it is being said that the suspension is delayed at least 14 days in order for LFC or Saurez to decide to appeal or not. So he should be available for tomorrow's match at Wigan.

I had a dream that Rovers players refused to come out of the locker room and play another minute for Steve Kean... I hope it was a premonition.

sailorman_glh: Tonnage: Laziness hasn't stopped others from making up words (i.e. "youse").

Between French and Uruguayan Spanish, I imagine a jibe got misinterpreted. Either way, 8 games is ludicrous, but I'll swallow it as long as John Terry gets hit with the same punishment.

I'm not swallowing it either way. 8 games is a farking joke.
