    Two things have surprised me today.

    1. The Arsenal performance-embarrassing for them imo. This is basically the second string Spurs team and we ran them close. I imagine that is pretty humiliating. I really dont think they will win the league if they play like that aginst our ressies.

    2. The Arsenal fans-Supposedly 55,000 of them in there today...can you hear them? no? didnt think so. Prawn sandwiches for everyone.

    Typical Yid response.

    Arsenal played ****, i thought Spurs were actually very good but they still lost!
    8 years and counting.

    Arsenal will have to up their performances from now on though...

    lol, comedy of errors.
    Harry 'England Manager' Redknapp looks flabergasted.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Torres is all over the place, sounds like Pompey need to make a sub at LB.

    Portsmouth were 7-1 for a win, which seemed foolishly generous at the time. I was'nt tempted.

    Yossi should have laid that off, those tight angkle shots with players in the way always get skewed wide. He had a great opening for about a second to slide it to Kuyt for a tap in.

    is the sound broke at pool match or is unaturally quiet?

    whoever sorts out setantas coverage definately doesnt mic the stadiums like sky do, but it is a bit on the quite side.

    Just havign a quiet day. An early 2-0 lead and a comfortable game tends to mean the team dont need much encouragement,

    Plus everybody probably has scarves over their faces. :)

    What an utterly pointless card for Arbeloa to take, gob****e.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Its quiet on the radio as well. There's no tension.

    Mike.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Can someone please explain to me why you'd play a high line against Liverpool?

    Don't question Harry's tactics, he's a genius dontcha know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Like come on, play deep, let them play high, use your pace to hit them on the counter. Instead, it's allowing them to play deep, Portsmouth to play high, and allowing Torres pace to punish them on the counter. Cop the **** on like.

    The stadiums are miked-up as standard. Sky send commentators to the actual game though, and presuambly their own mics pick up a lot of ambient sound. By the sounds of things, Setanta have a couple of guys sitting in a studio somewhere, doing things on the cheap.

    Some goals flying in late on Torres again plus Reading and Wigan go ahead.

    it's just the mix. some guy in the editing room will be responsible for blending the sounds of the stadium and commentators together. Sky actually are the worst for this i think, they regularly drown out the commentators.

    also: I find it really hard to believe that Setanta wouldn't have a commentator in the press box seeing as RTE do.

    There is no way in earth, the linesman could have seen that go overthe line. Awful decision.... (that said, happy they scored)

    Didn't think they were very good,they did enough to get a draw, but Arsenal more shots on target, possession. We were not totally on form today, but this team will fight and fight. The sign of champions grinding out results imo,even if that twat had scored the pen, I am sure we would have scored.
