I do believe a piss-up is now on the cards...

They certainly deserved it. Dodgey decisions from the ref/refs all game. Wigan could easily have put away a few more goals though

Definitely. But still, it's not every day we beat a top 4 team. It's only taken 5 years of being in the Prem for us to do it anyway. As for Cech's red, that challenge was so late the ref must have instinctively booked Paul Ince as well.

But bloody hell, what a performance!

About time Chelsea have been punished for being shakey, i thought there'd be another late goal for them and they'd steal 3 points in the end again but it wasn't to be. Meanwhile Norwich managed to save a point as well so a pretty good afternoon!

Any chance of Ipswitch avoiding relegation? Even though it is early days, I have heard they have been really terrible.

My side, naturally

They were absolutely dreadful today. Steve Harper had virtually nothing to do all afternoon, it was way too easy for Newcastle.

That doesn't sound good at all. ****e!

I can't believe what a pig's ear Keano's making out of that Ipswich job. I reckon his sacking's more or less a forgone conclusion now.

Mojo · 09-28-2009, 09:04 AM

Thats if he doesnt walk out first.

Dwight Yorke has claimed in his book that when Keano walked out of the Sunderland job he texted him to say he was sorry for the way things worked out and the reply he got said simply "Go fuck yourself!"
