Can Phil Brown get a player carded for time-wasting in under 20 minutes?
Will we find out today?
Will my burning hatred for Chelsea win out over my burning hatred for Phil Brown?
A nifty save by Boaz Myhill a few minutes ago…
BOAAAAAZZZZ
What’s happening? have Hull parked the bus?
So…who spends too much money on Myhill this summer and is sorely disappointed?
Mouyokolo!…
Listening to the first 30 on XM over lunch. Sounds like Hunt is being a menace of a pest.
Keane just sent his first chance in a Celtic shirt wide of the post.
@PR: all his menace is being concealed by copious amounts of douchbaggery.
Wow so if Hull holds on to win this, it’ll make the EPL title race real interesting. Too bad Hull will end up losing 3-1 instead.
Hull really starting to sit back now. If Chelsea can’t find the equalizer soon, this match will grind to a halt.
Yeah, but I have a hard time hating players who are undersized and seem to lack basic athleticism yet still someone achieve at the highest levels. Hunt is Kuytish.
Keane with another chance and forces a nice save, but no one can get on the ball as it’s palmed away.
Some would say that Hunt is Cuntish
@PR: I think the word you’re looking for is “c**tish.” I know what you mean, though. I want to like Hunt, but he’s just such a little bastard, I can’t bring myself to it.
that was a rather impressively-struck free-kick
It’s that man Drogba again…
@NYK: JINX!
@phil – buy me a Coke?
Holy s**t. What a strike from Didier Drogba.
@NYK: Are ye hittin’ on me?
Because I don’t do that.
On land.
/hoping NYK is a Simpsons fan or it just got aawkward in here.
John Terry must think Boateng is another man’s wife.
But not his best friend’s wife: he won’t snog just anyone’s lady.
@phil – I’m a Simpsons fan, but that don’t mean it ain’t awkward
Debut goal for Kilmarnock new boy Maguire, while Celtic new boy Keane has gone wanting in two solid chances.
that’s because Keane is tat
At least now Jozy knows the kind of cheap s**t he can expect from Terry this summer.
Jozy with the first good chance of the 2nd half.
Jozy looking very dangerous to open the second half.
man, my streams are going down faster than Vanessa Perroncel
Would love to see that no-call on Jozy again. Looked like he was clipped from behind.
Same here, NYK. I can’t keep one for more than a minute or so
have a decent stream now – 2nd link for the match on ILEMI.com
Keane falls after getting free in the box, right as a dangerous-looking cross is swung in
fat frank with a nasty hipcheck on The Haitian Sensation. YOU BASTARD!
That Jerkov should have passed to Drogba. Selfish.
Thx, nyk. 1st link on atdhe working, too
Zaki on? Orangeman going for the win? Head asplode.
Zaki the Malcontent on
Jozy is giving Chelsea fits right now
I don’t have audio, so I don’t know why I just saw a pair of gloves lying on the pitch. Did someone kill Boobatov?
Holy s**t, a man by the name of D. Butterfield has scored a 7-minute hat-trick in the 2nd half for Crystal Palace against Wolves.
Cech’s lime-green socks and kit accents are really eye-searing, aren’t they?
NYK, those were Zaki’s gloves. He came on wearing them, then threw them off
@JT – meh, Butterfield is no Pete Homeskillet, that’s for sure
Zaki threw off his gloves? But he needs them – he’s from the desert!
Come On You Tigers! Hold On!!
@jape – for one more day?
why, yes, I am bored during office hours.
ooooooooooh, I love it when the guy streaming the match starts doing random other s**t on his computer
“for one more day?”
One day more.
I heard Butterfield went to the University of Even More Super Awesome.
Drogba drops like he was shot. Asswipe.
@PR – UEMSA? Sounds like a FIFA confederation to me, what an advantage!
phil: Couldn’t have been. He’s Ivorian, not Togolese.
10 more minutes? 10 minutes more?
too soon, PR! too soon!
Also, Wolves are getting shellacked by Leyton Orient, 4-0
not embarrassed if that was a Wilson Phillips shout that went over my head.
@jape – it was indeed, but since you recognized it that would imply that it didn’t go over your head
Well I suspected something was up and googled. I swear I did.
you kids and your Google
Hull look to be set to settle in for the draw.
Get a room you two. And then have sex with each other in it.
So Chelsea will be good and pissed off and take it out on hapless Arsenal.
What’s with the ping-pong table lines on the field? Are the implementing a two-line pass rule?
@Georger – don’t be jealous
NYK: Wolves are losing to Crystal Palace, not Leyton Orient.
Leyton Asian American, please.
My apologies – Leyton are beating the crap out of Bristol Rovers 4-0, while Crystal Palace are only up 3-0 on Wolves
Apparently Daniel Sturridge has “a magic wand of a left foot.”
That is the preferred nomenclature.
@JT – is that according to Vanessa Perroncel?
don’t forget to scroll up and enjoy the rest of this afternoon’s Terry Tuesday (hopefully the last such Terry Tuesday ever)
Carvalho is really fond of the hip check. Must be learning from Ballack.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOO! GET IN HULL!
Did the jokes about Wenger signing John Terry’s fetus to play CB surface yet? #terrytuesday
Hell yes, Hull.
Well done, Hull! My insults seem to have worked their magic and you’ve proved me wrong.
Calm down, Arsenal fans. You’re just setting up for the Chelsea response this weekend. After falling into the trap game today, they’ll be doubly eager to win big on Sunday!
you shut your mouth, you dirty whore!
Oh, stick it, James. The unrealistic storm of optimism before the inevitable let down is what us Gunners do best.
Jeez, guys! I shall leave you to your fantastical daydream sessions, then. Pansies.
It appears the “Going Into Administration” bump is just as formidable as the “New Manager” bump.
James – my joy is more for Chelsea dropping points to an awful team than any disillusions that the dropped points will have any bearing on our title chances.
Villa against a Moses-less Palace = teh awesome. And verynice, Sven.
