Football 2013/14 season

Villa away kit listed as "striking and original" !!! No

Speaking as a Bristol City fan, Villa away kit, looks like Bristol Rovers kit, score 0

As for Cardiff and Southampton, any kit that deviates from the traditional layout should score far less.

Excellent summary. As far as City go, perhaps you can buy class?

Liverpool, though. Dearie me.

I elected to be charitable and judge them on their merits. Bill Shankly is the only person allowed to change a club's colours to all-red, however.

God that Norwich city home kit is bright. They could easily play on if there was ever floodlight failure at Carrow Road.

I think Everton have forgotten what the point of having different kits is - all their kits are predominantly blue!

 

[teabagyokel]

When Everton had their pink away kit, (I think) Niall Quinn was asked his opinion of it and he said "I'd prefer it to be blue."

Well, then it wouldn't be an away kit then, would it? Is it a requirement for a licence to broadcast football to have at least one incompetent Irish international spouting total toss from co-commentry. Lawrenson, Townsend, Quinn. Idiots.

I wonder if the rumour is true that Swansea City sent John Jo Shelvey to have his eyes tested to see if he was colour blind, after his performance last night.

 

[mjo]

He made it a great game though!!!
Also, it's strange to see Liverpool at the top of the table.

Oh dear, seems like a certain man is the "not so special one"

Phone in on Radio 5 after this evenings Champions League games is hilarious.

All of a sudden Benitez was not such a bad manager after all.

Be careful what you wish for.

 

[teabagyokel]

Be careful what you wish for.

... because you just might get it!

Napoli beat Dortmund tonight, out of interest!

 

[cider_and_toast]

Either way, at least Chelsea have got their Europa league campaign off to the perfect start.

 

[mjo]

Really impressed by Swansea tonight... 3-0 up away to Valencia.

 

[cider_and_toast]

That's a fantastic start for them.

 

[Johnny Carwash]

Absolutely delighted with the Swans winning in Valencia. Nice to get an away win in Europe, hopefully it won't take another 31 years to get the next away win.

 

[Galahad]

Valencia 0-3 Swansea City.

Wouldn't have seen that 10 years ago. Today's equivalent would be, what, Borussia Dortmund 0-3 Macclesfield Town?

Brilliant work.

 

[landogeorgelewis1]

Michu and Bony looking a fab combination .
Really like Swansea .

Moyes out!

 

[cider_and_toast]

No, Moyes stays, I've not had this much fun watching Man Utd in years.

Mind you, there's a certain ex Sunderland manager looking for a new job.

 

[teabagyokel]

I'd like to imagine the reaction of certain United players reacting to Mussolini; Rooney, Vidic, Rio etc.

Particularly Rooney.
