A chink of light...

The TOON have finally completed the long-rumored purchase of Tottenham winger Andros Townsend for 12 million pounds.

Pep Guardiola to succeed Manuel Pellegrini as Manchester City boss...

Quote:

Pep Guardiola has agreed a three-year contract to become Manchester City manager in the summer.

The 45-year-old, currently in charge at Bayern Munich, will replace Manuel Pellegrini, who will leave on 30 June.

No real surprises here then.

Even more unsurprising...

“Sitting on his wage” – Angry Liverpool fans take to Twitter after Enrique snubs Newcastle.
Social media has reacted after Jose Enrique’s proposed homecoming to Newcastle broke down.
Enrique has fallen way down the pecking order at Liverpool and has been resigned to just a handful of cup appearances all season.
He hasn’t played in the Premier League since January of last year and at 30 years of age, time is starting to run out on the Spaniard’s career.

NEWCASTLE have made a late shock bid for Swansea's Bafetimbi Gomis, according to reports.

Premier League spending has burst through the £1billion barrier for the first time last night but I wonder how much if any of it will end up in HMRC

Jimbuna · 02-06-16, 11:27 AM

TOON lead West Brom 1-0 at half time, could this be another rare victory?

Jimbuna · 02-07-16, 11:23 AM

TOON actually win the game...shock, horror, awe

Jimbuna · 02-13-16, 09:06 AM

Most surprising, Sunderland are drawing 1-1 with Man Utd at half time.

Oh they are showing Chelsea - Newcastle on one of the commercial TV-Channels

I missed the first 17 minutes-changed channel Expected 0-0 instead it is

Chelsea-Newcastle 3-0

The only time i want Sunderland to win is against the manure scum....

Jimbuna · 02-14-16, 10:44 AM

Mackems won 2-1 rather surprisingly.

TOON lose 5-1 rather unsurprisingly.

Leicester go down to ten men before losing 2-1 against Arsenal, almost five minutes into a supposed period of four minutes of stoppage time.

FC Midtjylland 2-1 Manchester United

Quote:

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal put his side's 2-1 defeat by FC Midtjylland down to Murphy's law.

Not looking too good atm

It came as surprise even here in Denmark about 8-10 % of those who had placed a bet on the game had FC Midtjylland as the winner.

It was reported here in the UK news that ticket prices for the match had been raised to treble the normal price.

Jimbuna · 02-29-16, 02:32 PM

TOON have a game in hand because of Man City involvement in cup final yesterday but that is anything but three points in the bag.

This was new to me, had not heard about it. If true, it is reprehensible

I guess it's not the first time a country/stadium raise the ticket price when a famous team visit their town to play a match of some kind.

It will not be the last time it happen.
