TOTTENHAM PENALTY

EMMANUEL ADEBAYOR scores

ScouserDuck		2012-05-06 10:23:53 AM

Let's go swans!

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:24:18 AM

FULL TIME

NEWCASTLE 0 - 2 MANCHESTER CITY

Welp, only Mark Hughes and Queens Park Rangers stand in the way of Blue Moon Rising.

Lord Jubjub		2012-05-06 10:24:47 AM

If both Manchester teams win out, it will be the first time the Premier League champion won on goal differential.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:27:32 AM

So unless we see City lose at home in the league for the first time, or Manchester United drop 12 on Swans and Sunderland, wrap that trophy in blue ribbons now, and just carve their name on the body.

689908		2012-05-06 10:27:36 AM

Yaya Toure is the testicular fortitude the challengers and "challengers" lack.

That's the title done. Congratulations City. Congratulations City fans.

HaywoodJablonski		2012-05-06 10:30:26 AM

I wouldn't hate one more Aston Villa goal right now

Stimied in a Rut		2012-05-06 10:31:30 AM

Spurs have equalized from the peno spot. Ade keeps 10 men spurs in it. I'm on the bus now so all I have is the live text.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:32:43 AM

OWN GOAL

Liam Ridgewell tries a clearance, smacks it off of teammate Billy Jones and it goes back of the net.

I hope Joey Barton gets another red card in that match so we get one last end-of-season Twitter rant.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:38:30 AM

CHRIS BRUNT pulls one back for the Baggies.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:42:45 AM

TheKnownUniverse: I hope Joey Barton gets another red card in that match so we get one last end-of-season Twitter rant.

De Jong and Barton get into a fight, both get sent off, City loses, but i the 90th minute in a 0-0 draw at Sunderland, Michael Owen own goals, rips off his United jersey to show his 2001 Liverpool kit, sings YNWA, and boards a helicopter to Merseyside.

/dream ending

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:46:32 AM

DJIBRIL CISSE scores!

QPR not dead just yet.
Oh who are we kidding, they aren't beating City at home. They need Bolton to lose.

Stimied in a Rut		2012-05-06 10:47:10 AM

I will probably only get to see some of the United match. Hoping for a 5-0 victory to get rid of some of the bad taste in my mouth from the results today.

Stimied in a Rut		2012-05-06 10:49:33 AM

QPR are making the final day interesting.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 10:51:00 AM

JAMES MORRISON EQUALIZES FOR WEST BROM!

QPR now staying up, Bolton going down.

HaywoodJablonski		2012-05-06 10:53:36 AM

Odds that United starts 10 strikers?

The most implausible part of that scenario is Michael Owen actually being on the pitch. Now if you said he rode in on one of his horsies like the midget wannabe jockey he is, that is more believable.

Stimied in a Rut		2012-05-06 10:58:59 AM

The only reason I want Bolton to stay up is so that Stuart Holden has a shot Premier League games next season. Still hate Johnny Evans for that tackle.

HaywoodJablonski		2012-05-06 11:00:38 AM

All those who thought arsenal would still be third after losing yesterday, step forward. Not so fast, everyone on the planet!

A man can dream, can't he? Why must you crush my dreams?

Okay how about this: Chicharito, puts out a press release right before the match decrying the American owners, own goals in the 90 t give Sunderland the win, tears off his United kit to reveal his El Tri kit, yells "Viva la revolucion!", puts on a giant oversized sombrero, and takes a speedboat out of Manchester harbor to an awaiting cruise ship to Guadalajara.

They drew, they didn't lose. But yeah, your point still stands. Figures spurs shiat the bed on the most important game of the season.

Actually next week's QPR game has my shiatting myself as a City fan. Having the title in the bag on the last day and losing to QPR just screams "typical City" to me.

ScouserDuck		2012-05-06 11:09:50 AM

You missed the part where he screams ayiyaiyaiyaiyai as he fires 2 single action revolvers in the air....

/too much?

When you put it that way, it does sound pretty plausible...

Yeah, it really has the perfect setup for a big let down. I'm not sure QPR is good enough to win, but a draw wouldn't surprise me at all... ...of course, with the way this weekend is going, it wouldn't surprise me for Swans to take points from United today.

I thought the oversized sombrero was pushing it, so this is a little too much.

Langston		2012-05-06 11:28:22 AM

Very, very fortunate results for Arsenal today.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 11:28:57 AM

PAUL SCHOLES taps in from Carrick's sort of shot/pass combo thing.

1 of the match, many more needed.

Langston		2012-05-06 11:30:05 AM

SCHOLES tucks in a tidy goal for United.

ASHLEY YOUNG curls in after Rooney's miss.

Goal difference now at 8 to City.

Yes, El Guapo. A plethora.

Well, at least Chelsea have locked up Europe for next season, amirite?

Langston		2012-05-06 12:21:59 PM

The pace has gone out of United. The game's gone marshmallowy.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 12:26:54 PM

Paul Scholes off
Tom Cleverley on

ADubs86		2012-05-06 12:37:46 PM

Wayne Rooney off
Dimitar Berbatov on

Stimied in a Rut		2012-05-06 12:40:33 PM

Missed the two goals to watch a boring second half. United should have had 4 goals in this half.

ADubs86		2012-05-06 12:47:14 PM

Rio Ferdinand off
Rafael da Silva on

MANCHESTER UNITED 2 - 0 SWANSEA CITY

We end the day as we started it, so a win for City gives them the title, unless United pull a record and drop 10 on Sunderland.

Howard Webb will be the ref and Sunderland will be playing with 9 by halftime guaranteed.

Langston		2012-05-06 01:35:32 PM

Odd. My guesses were closer than I thought they'd be this week. Very happy that I was wrong about Tottenham's final line.

TheMatchHare		2012-05-06 01:38:03 PM

This really is set up for a fantastic final week. I kind of hope Rovers beat Wigan tomorrow to add to the chaos at the bottom, but the fact that Wigan can avoid relegation with a win is remarkable in and of it self. Fun times...

Agreed. Next week will be awesome, as well as the Champions League final the week after. So many storylines still active:

- Man City could trip up in their last game, opening the door for Utd to with the League
- The race for third is still separated by only two points between Arsenal, Tottenham, and Newcastle
- A Champions League win by Chelsea could still nullify the fourth place in the Table
- The last relegation spot has four teams separated by only three points (A win by Wigan tomorrow notwithstanding)

Thank you Spurs.

Thank you City.

Thank you Bayern.

/Probably.

looking at the new wembley during the cup final and the rumors of a battersea power station stadium for chelsea i can't help but to think that the fa should have built the replacement for wembley at battersea power station. that would have made an incredible badass national stadium and the twin towers wouldn't have had to be torn down.

replace the blue "chelsea fc" with st george's flag or something like that...a national stadium in a national icon

689908		2012-05-07 07:03:04 AM

The Ireland squad for the Euros will be announced in a few hours. The rumour mill suggests one of our main players will miss out for "personal reasons."

I can't help but feel that the FA should have spent its money on developing a youth system like Spain or Germany and played international games at Old Trafford, The Emirates, St James' Park, Villa Park, St. Mary's, etc.
