        It's actually going to be harder next season. Spurs will likely find a real manager, Chelsea are going to buy a world class striker, Liverpool will improve, United will likely improve... granted Citeh will improve as well, but I think next season the contenders are going to be much stronger than this season.

            Seriously? City drew? Wow. That happened? Just gonna let Liverpool wall away with it huh. I would Lol at City....... But oh fuck it.

            L-O-L Shitty.

            And I'm not too sure how much City will be able to improve next year Anthony. The UEFA report has them and PSG lined up and ready to pounce. City have yet to respond as of today, and everyone is just waiting for them to announce the punishment. Now the incredibly harsh punishment is banned from CL. But we all know UEFA are too scared, but the transfer embargo might be up their alley.

            Well see. Can't believe though they didn't have the mettle to finish that team off. It's happened before to other teams as well, but it's always crazy to me.

              Agreed on the punishment. FIFA were quick to give a transfer ban to Barca, so I think they might actually stick it to Citeh.

              The Sunderland match is proof, to me anyway, that clubs which actually build their clubs like the Uniteds and others are actually stronger despite possibly being weaker talent wise. I mean those clubs have the mental strength that teams with hired guns tend to lack. Just look at Chelsea and how long it actually took for them to really win anything on the European stage.

                Barca's keeper was absolute trash on both goals today.

                  Would of been sweeter if the Sunderland GK would of not let the 2nd goal roll by him. Sort of pulling for Sunderland to stay up. 3 points there would of been huge. But yeah, wow at City not getting 3 points there.

                  Crystal Palace match is not going to be easy. They have been in great form.

                    Pulling for Sunderland to stay up is like hoping to put it in Jen Selter's butt.

                      Absolutely. It's what the "fans" of that team never wanted to admit. It's what happens when mercenaries are hired. Later on I'll find a post from bluemoon, it's funny, and sums things up nicely.

                        You guys should check out that 30 for 30 about Hillsborough if you get the chance. It's one of the best ones I've seen.

                        Heels will have to find a more nefarious way of obtaining a copy, since the footage is banned in the UK.

                            The last 45 minutes were a bore. We get it, you want criminal retribution, it's never going to happen.

                            After they mentioned the doctored report of the police officer, it went downhill, and I don't think it was close to the best one that I've seen which was Once Brothers.

                              I didn't feel that way at all. I don't think they wanted criminal retribution so much as they wanted to vindicate their deceased relatives.

                              The only reason it seemed like they pushed criminal prosecution against Duckenfield and his deputy was because the only evidence they had available at that time pointed towards their negligence.

                              By the end, when you saw the layers of shit these people had to crawl through for two decades to even see the doctored police affidavits, I was completely invested in their success.

                              The scene from the 20th anniversary at Anfield was chilling.

                                Mirror reporting that Moyes is sacked and Giggs is being asked to take over as caretaker manager.
