As the season progresses it seems that red will be THE colour. Despite Steve Kean put everyone in the bus (double-decker in fact) and parked it in front of his goalkeeper, creatures from hell (well, aren't they the devils or something) got what they came for.
They even didn't need help from Beelzebub (the latter even tried to eliminate one of his men, but, luckily for the ginger one, his lasers didn't work), although he was there - just in case. You didn't notice him? Maybe the telly misled you. Namely, they also call him Howard Webb. Anyway, the devils with great wings (they even have names for them - Young and Valencia) are flying high.
On the other hand, the oil-fueled blue moon is in somewhat descending mode. The experts' evaluation of the current situation of the richest (Manchester-based) not-so-natural satellite is -5. One of the reasons for getting more and more into the cold is B-52. Its Danish version is causing mayhem across the EPL - lately by air-strikes. And the before mentioned moon was not an exception.
In other 31st round matches, one of the Norwich City players causes damage to speakers, one of the Arse's players should be sacrificed, one of the Bolton players imitates Liam Neeson, one of the Liverpool players is dazed and confused by black&white combination, one of the Tottenham players is not a chronically idle clown with the first touch of a concrete elephant, and more.
Now it's time to explain (again), what this blog is all about. As I wrote the last few times: You won't find any detailed experts' analysis here. You won't find complete scoresheets either. But you'll find a good banter, juicy comments about the game, the clubs, the players, the refs, the goals... Maybe you'll find some useful info/opinion for a football chat in your favourite bar...
Namely, football is a global sport, so is the English Premierleague. It is followed by a huge number of a-round-ball-loving enthusiasts, journos, players and managers themselves... I hear football is also more and more popular in the US of soccer... :)
And for all those reasons it's widely commented on Twitter. It is a very well known "fact" that tweeps possess a lot of football knowledge, common sense, cynicism, humour, love/hate relationships... And, yes, even different kinds of stupidity occur...
So, all the ingredients for the tasty soup of football opinion are there.
This is the "31st edition". Here are some of the bits, which should shed some (different) light on the 31st round of EPL. I thank all the tweeps for contributing...
ASTON VILLA - CHELSEA 2-4 (0-1)
@TomOakley_:
Goals and assists in the last two weeks: Torres = 3 goals & 4 assists. Van Persie = 0 goals & 2 assists. #CFC"
@OptaJoe
1035 - Fernando Torres has scored his first Premier League goal in 1035 minutes. Refreshed.
EVERTON - WEST BROMWICH ALBION 2-0 (1-0)
@Everton
Referee Peter Walton making his final PL outing today before moving to the USA. His first game was a 2-1 Everton win over West Brom here
@vviinneerr
If you google : everton afro , it takes you directly to the wiki page of fellaini
FULHAM - NORWICH CITY 2-1 (2-0)
@OptaJoe
7 - Only Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie have scored more PL goals in 2012 than Clint Dempsey. Radical.
@BigGrantHolt
Just heard Aaron Wilbraham on my radio. His voice broke my bass speakers. #ncfc
@Juanmigo
Also, today was #Wilbrahamovic's 100th career goal. wished better circumstances for it, but still some achievement. #ncfc well done alby!
MANCHESTER CITY - SUNDERLAND 3-3 (1-2)
@BrentsGotNards
Best thing to come out of Sweden since Roxette! #larsson #safc
@BrentsGotNards
A team that cost £50kajillion to assemble and they have to dive. Ridiculous. #safc #mcfc
@prestonj85
B-52 strikes again! #mcfc #safc
@TopRed99
WOWZERS....I just made a mess in my trousers!! Sunderland 3-1 YEEE HAAA the lads #SAFC #MCFC
@InnaMUFC_Vettel
That between Balotelli&Kolarov was epic.Mario was looking like he's ready to beat up his own team mate for 1 free kick.And thats team spirit
QUEENS PARK RANGERS - ARSENAL 2-1 (1-1)
@OptaJoe
22% - Arsenal have won a lower percentage of games against QPR than versus any other opponent in PL history (22%). Hooped.
@arsnllatest
And when I say sacrifice Aaron Ramsey, I actually mean sacrifice. With an altar and a knife and everything. Hopeless. #afc
@TEAMtalk
Were we seeing things or did #qpr striker Adel Taraabt just put a fez on when he scored v #afc? Think he got booked for it too!
WIGAN - STOKE CITY 2-0 (0-0)
@BusinessStudies
Don't know why we ever bother to turn up to play Wigan. We always give them points. Hope we aren't as charitable next week.
WOLVERHAMPTON - BOLTON 2-3 (0-0)
@OptaJoe
3 - Bolton Wanderers have won three league games in a row for the first time since December 2006. Fightback.
@MirrorFootball
GOAL!!! 3-1 to Bolton now. Kevin Davies does to Wolves what Liam Neeson did in The Grey.
NEWCASTLE UTD - LIVERPOOL 2-0 (1-0)
@BeyondthePitch
More cheating going on in this NUFC-LFC match than a swingers convention already, buckle up for some wildness
@Sector29
So, Skirtle obviously thought, "what can I do to improve my looks?" Yes. Two armfuls of tattoos. That's lovely. #nufc
@MatthewJRudd
Suarez is playing really poorly against #nufc. Maybe he's confused by how good it looks to see black and white together.
@Geordie4Ever1
Tell me Ma me Ma I want be home for tea, I'm going to Italy, tell me Ma me Ma #nufc #toonineurope
TOTTENHAM - SWANSEA 3-1 (1-0)
@Barrell89
So we send Bale down the left and whaddya know, he tears Swansea a new one #thfc
@da1seggy
Scott Parker has got his headless chicken suit on today. Calm down fella #thfc
@Doyoulikebread
Pleat's commentary = Player nationality + adjective. 'The diminutive Croatian' 'Brazilian maestro' Welsh Wizard' 'English muffin' #THFC
@Mitchtaylorr
If Gareth Bale was black, Usain Bolt would have a problem #thfc
@markwools
Can we bring my nan on for Adebayor.. She'll do a better job.!!!!
@ByRobDavies
I take it all back Adebayor, you're not a chronically idle clown with the first touch of a concrete elephant after all. #thfc
BLACKBURN - MANCHESTER UTD 0-2 (0-0)
@SihleSays
Scholes "foul": Those are the sort of decisions that lead people to alcoholism Mr Webb #mufc #blackburn
@edmorgans
Webb repeatedly points at Scholes, hoping for lasers to fly from his fingers and strike the red-head down, but no luck. #MUFC
@camden560
I bet Ronaldinho is sat in Santos proper gutted his brother couldn't sort out a move to Blackburn #mufc #brfc
@PubChick
Im glad my neighbours aren't all that close.. Cause the way Im screaming "GET IT IN!!!" repeatedly could be awkward to explain. #mufc
@arthurpdent42
Proof that Twitter can tell the future... Ashley Young was trending top 10 worldwide BEFORE he scored #mufc
