Football Funnies - March 22/23rd 2014


Chelsea 6 Arsenal 0
Chelsea 3-0 up in twenty minutes. Everything they touch turns to goals.

Bad mistake by Andre Marriner. He's off the Christmas Card list of Arsene Wenger, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain AND Kieran Gibbs

So Oxlade-Chamberlain handles the ball, and Gibbs gets sent off. What I've learnt from this incident is that Andre Marriner can't handle the Premier League.

"Andre Marriner (and his team) had a terrible day" This is not news. I called him the worst ref in league 2 back in 2004/5 after his second ever league game - Mansfield v Leyton Orient.

If Andre Marriner can't tell difference between Oxlade-Chamberlain & Gibbs, we should see how he likes it, start calling him Chris Foy or Mark Clattenburg.

Knowing Andre Marriner, if he planned to go to Specsavers, he'd actually turn up at Vision Express instead

Coming soon Andre Marriner's 100 Worst Refereeing Decisions' 2004-2014 presented by Jimmy Carr

Good thing Wenger has another 1,000 games to sort his defence out, and finally get that win against Mourinho #unsackable

Cardiff 3 Liverpool 6
2-2 at half-time but Liverpool run riot in second half. Everything they touch turns to goals.

A Suarez hat-trick, plus 2 from Skrytl and one from Sturridge.
Suarez has 28 from 30 league games - the most EVER in the Premier League after 30 games. If he can keep this up, and not get banned for bitting anyone he could break the all-time season record.

So hows that 'sack Malkay Mackay and bring in Ole Gunnar Scholskar' turning out for Vincent Tann?

Man City 5 Fulham 0 
Congratulations to Fulham, 3 managers, 2 coaches, a partridge in a pear-tree and the first team to be relegated from the Premier League.

Four for Man City in the second half. Everything they touch turns to goals.

Neither Liverpool, Man City or Chelsea will admit they're favourites for the Premier League, so that makes Arsenal odd-on by default

Everton 3 Swansea 2
Has anyone noticed how you never see Gary Monk and Ricky Wilson in the same room?

12 penalties out of 12 for Leighton Baines in the Premier League. Can he take all five for England in the World Cup this summer? Is it too late to sign to nationalise Yaya Toure?

Has Angel Rangel ever met Gary and Phil Neville's brother Evill Neville?

Hull CIty 2 West Brom 0
So West Brom should never have sold their main striker to Hull in the transfer window, is about the long and the short of it

Newcassle' 1 Crystal Palace 0 (Papa Cisse 90+4)
Papa Cisse, Pardew & Carver, Crystal Palace, hmmm hmmm mmmm, you've gotta have a system...

Is Alan Pardew stadium ban just for Newcassle matches, or can he scout other teams?
He could have gone to Exeter v Fleetwood at the other St James Park.
And oddly enough, Fleetwood play at (the other) Highbury.


Norwich 2 Sunderland 0
Important goal from Snodgrass for Norwich against Sunderland. Lucky for him rejecting Orient back in 2007/8 didn't affect his career


West Ham 0 Man United 2
'Rooney lobs Adrian from the half-way line' doesn't sound as impressive as 'Nayim lobs Seaman' About par with 'Beckham lobs Sullivan'

Last night asked which goal from half-way line was better, Beckham or Rooney. No mention of Dean Cox at Walsall?! (last season)

Great assist from noble for Rooney's second goal. Rooney on 300k a week, Noble not even on the payroll. Just good ole' east end hospitality

Russel Brand on Match of The Day? Not a lot of people know, but he used to edit a west ham fanzine called 'I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles Wubbles'

Russel Brand brought in to analyse on the Rooney v Beckham half-way line goals for his authority on hair styles and cuts.

Tottenham 3 Southampton 2
Tottenham recover from 2 down to beat Southampton 3-2. After the match Sherwood told press 'anything MK Dons can do, we can do better

Tottenham trailing 0-2, so Tim Sherwood comes down to the bench from his seat in the stands to sort mess out. And make Pardew jealous

Its now Tottenham Desmond Southampton Tutu. Tim has gone back to his seat in the stand. Doesn't know whether he's coming or going

Tottenham (English coach) 3 Southampton (English players) 2 
well if Levy does give Sherwood the push, he deserves a role with Hodgson.

Christian Eriksen revealed manager Tim Sherwood's half-time team talk inspired Spurs to a 3-2 victory over Southampton "Never on the football field of human conflict'...

Tottenham are the zen masters of the Premier League, zero goal difference. Man City are +49, Fulham are minus 40

Are the new fixtures out yet - When is Tim's 1,000th match in charge of ? Is it the early kick-off against Chelsea at the Bridge?

Aston Villa 1 Stoke City 4
bit of a shock result after Villa beat Chelsea last week, mind you they were without Chris Foy today

Mark Hughes says Peter Crouch should get recall to England squad. To be fair he needs a transfer to Southampton to be in with a shout

Aston Villa raise their game against top 4, but fail against lower or same level teams. The exact opposite of Arsenal & Tottenham

Football Funnies - March 15/16th 2014


It's so tough down at the bottom of the Premier League, there are actually six teams in the bottom three.

Hull 0 Man City 2
Good goal from David De Silva, returning from his winter mid season goal break.

Gold medal for Silva?

Who keeps Kompany company during his (presumably) three match ban?.
I suppose he could hang out with Alan Pardew..


Aston Villa 1 Chelsea 0
Willian sent off. He had to leave early anyway, to get back for battle rounds on BBC1.

Fabulous finish fabian!
Delightful dribbling Delph!

Mourinho has blamed Chris Foy for defeat and the two sendings-off. He said Foy should give up refereeing and stick to the Olympic Cycling.

Mourinho Willian and Eamires all sent off. 
So now we know who keeps Kompany company. Along with pardew.

Swansea 1 West Bromwich 2
If Swansea AND Cardiff get relegated, The Welsh Premier League will be REALLY interesting next season.

Savage summarising tonight. Well the BBC will insist on employing Robbie.

Well done WBA under pressure manager Pepe Mel on win at Swansea. Still looking for first win in England though.

Everton 2 Cardiff 1
Inspired goalkeeping from Marshall for Cardiff. Marshall marshalling the troops. Or not as case may be, in 90th minute.

"That's the margins innit?" Nice bit of cockney from olly gunnar... I thought he was from Manchester?

Southampton (aka England B) 4 Norwich 2
Roy Hodgson gave four Saints players their England debut this season. He's waiting for the saints job full time. He might be better sending Delia his cv

How comes the Saints manager has a translator, but none for Rickie Lambert?

Stoke 3 West Ham 1
"a welcome mid-table look to the match between stoke and west ham" Try telling the fans that gary.

Early goal for Andy Carroll, still trying to force his way into the England squad for the permanently injured spot.

That Odemwingie goal/tap-in was worth driving all the way from QPR for.

And Odemwingie's second was worth driving through the night for.

Fulham 1 Newcassle' 0
I thought Alan Pardew might go shopping in harrods during the Fulham v Newcastle match

Cruel for krul.

Felix Magath's new glasses made a winning debut today. Hard to see a way back for the old glasses. Lasted even less than rene rene.

Sunderland 0 Crystal Palace 0
He's hit the woodwork! A normal night out in sunderland, to be fair

The only Premier League game of the weekend to finish goalless. Actually kicked off 3pm saturday and were still playing sunday morning without troubling the scorers.

Manchester Disunited 0 Liverpool 3
Two out of three penalties scored by Gerrard. Two out of three ain't bad.

Gerrard unlucky not to follow in footsteps of Jan Molby and score a hat-trick of penalties. Still time for a drink driving jail sentence tho..

Things are getting so bad for Manchester United, rumours are that the Glazers will sell to Vincent Tann and change to a blue kit

After 2-2 draw with Fulham on 9th Feb, Moyes said that was as bad as it gets. He was wrong... Olympiakos and then Liverpool.

Rooney said defeat at home to Liverpool one of his worst days in football. Well, second only to signing that new contract maybe..

Liverpool normally rely on the SAS to get the goals. Today they stepped up/on the GAS.
United were in reverse and showing a bad SAG.

Who'd have thought when the Grumpy Old Scot left, United would fall apart. They need to sign Troy or Dynamo, to bring back the magic.

NORTH LONDON DERBY
Tottenham 0 Arsenal 1
I think spurs are missing the 'el' inbetween the hp on their shirts

I heard Theo has taken an extra big wallet today to catch all the coins.

On the plus side for spurs if they keep 75% possession for rest of game they can restrict arsenal to 1-0

BREAKING NEWS: Jermain Defoe has scored twice on his debut in the North Canadian Derby.

Rosicky always scores on the big occasions.  
Fa cup 3rd round v spurs. 5th rd v Orient at Brisbane Road

Tim Sherwood's been a manager for 5 minutes, already showing the anger management issues of Alan Pardew. Fast learner.

Tim should be careful though, throwing balls at players. He hasn't got the security of an 8 year contract like Pardew  

Tottenham need another £100m rebuild in the summer. 
Gary Lineker better forget Sports Relief and start

Don't forget... You saw them first on twitter!
