AndrewC Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 There is the possibilitiy that they are already banned. Some of the rumours coming out are that several of the old ICF and past troublemakers were seen around the Boleyn and Barking Road before the match. This lot are already banned for life. Normally there is a group of about 6 or 7 that meet in the Queen's before/during each match as that is as close as they can get without the old Bill getting in their way.

peanuts Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I was wondering if Everton could play any worse than they did at Leicester on Saturday - the answer is yes. Well done Sunderland. martinez gone along with adkins Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Brit70053 Posted May 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Has me wondering has any other single league match : Sunderland Vs Everton, had so much impact on other clubs? 2 relegations and one managerial sacking (to date) as a result of Sunderland maintaining Premier League Status. Yes, I know all four outcomes are results of cumulative situations over the course of a season, but strange that all should come to dramatic conclusions on the result of one fixture. edit syntax Edited May 12, 2016 by Brit70053 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley Melrose Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Ah, another "wonder man" . . . When in my student days I worked on "the Docks" for a summer vacation job, there were still lots of the old docker characters around. One slim weedy looking guy was called "the wonder man". Naive as I was, I pondered how he had earned his nickname. I asked my colleagues if he was deceptively strong, given his build. When they'd ceased laughing, they explained it was because every time he looked out to sea and saw another ship heading up river to dock he would always say, "I wonder what's in that?"

Steve K Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 May I be the first from north of the border to congratulate Leicester City on their Title win, wish we could find a team up hear to challenge the supremacy of the big two. Jim "Big two"? It's been the "Big Yin" for 4 years, hasn't it? Still, I'd imagine that Rangers will be properly up for it next season, so there will be a decent level of competition through the whole 38 games. While I enjoyed seeing this year's nearly-but-not-quite team, Aberdeen, giving it a decent go, it never really looked like they'd take their challenge all the way to the end. Tottenham and Chelsea should both hang their heads in shame tonight however. A disgraceful end to a game. Chelsea players behaved dreadfully, Tottenham players no better. There are ways to lose a title and that looked like sulky bunch of school boys throwing their dummies out of the pram. Disgraceful, perhaps, but to say that Tottenham were "no better" than Chelsea is a bit harsh - Chelsea weren't the team to get a record number of bookings. Then again, I agree with something I heard on the radio the next day - Alderweireld should be ashamed of himself. The only outfield player to play 90 minutes and not get booked. The lad wasn't even trying! He was the only one in control. Many players and some staff had totally lost control. When our overpaid prima donnas behave like animals how come it's the ref that gets the blame? Exactly. I actually think the referees do pretty well under hard circumstances. I'm sure I've said it before on this thread, but what we need is retrospective action against all those players who try to con the ref into giving the wrong decision. If they know they'll be caught, they might at last start to unlearn all the cheating tactics. What a lovely man Ranieri is and I'd love Leicester to do a Forest and win the European cup next season. I think we'd all love that, Rob, but I can hardly see it. In fact, I'll give you 5000 to 1 my word that they won't! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Not only have City won the Premier League but Maidstone United have just won the Vanarama South Play-off on penalties. Unbelievable.For our members that don't follow non-league... Talk about doing it the hard way! Ebbsfleet 2-1 up, thanks to two penalties from Danny Kedwell, then Maidstone equalise in stoppage time of extra time, to force a shootout. And the crucial spot-kick which was missed by Ebbsfleet (or rather, saved by Maidstone) was taken by...Danny Kedwell! Some rather happy (and noisy) Stones fans on the Javelin back.
