Yep!! Saints, Joint top in the NPower Championship league after a whopping two whole games! LOL

They ARE playing very well at the moment though, so I have all my fingers crossed. :)
 
Ahhh, Saints then. I see they celebrated a glorious 1-0 victory over those bastards at Barnsley yesterday.

Apparently, it could have been a few more than 1-0. We even managed to put in a spell of 35 continuous passes against them!... I'll take a win though, whatever the scoreline. :)

Edit: Oooh! I can watch the entire game online now!! I'll be gone for 90 minutes then!! :D
 
I do occasionally watch EPL games featuring American players, and the quality is very high, but I really couldn't care less. MLS is all I really care about watching, because the Crew are the only team I have a real attachment to.

Nice, I kind of feel the same way about MLS.

But how about Columbus this weekend? They're looking pretty dang good. Too bad they'd still be in 5th place in the West, just one point ahead of a game-in-hand RSL. :D

I kid, I kid. It doesn't really matter seeing as they're pretty much set for a playoff berth. Then it just comes down to who is better on any given day.

I'm the same. I'm only really interested in watching games related at least in some way to my own team. If I watched everything soccer related, I'd have no time for anything else!
 
Tomorrow (Tuesday), the Saints take the pitch against the oddly nicknamed Tractorboys of Ipswich Town.

That's not a real nickname. It's generic for kids of farmers.

It's a biggy though. They are one of the stronger sides, and it's away. The Saints fans are on a high right now, 9 straight competitive wins. It will be a hard thing to take when the run ends.....Which could well be tomorrow. :(
 
Holy hell. Man City - Swansea just finished, and I think Aguero might be the only $40M striker in the EPL worth his price. You want to see scary good goals, Reno?
 
WOOO!!!! LA Galaxy get rid of Juan Pablo Angel (who was producing dick) and pick up Robbie Keane! YES, some Irish love!

If he's not available for their Champions League match tomorrow against Motagua, I'm sure they'll suit him up on the 20th.

More likely he and Beckham go make out or something and you're left depending on Landy to wake up out of his Gold-Cup induced depression. ;)


Seriously though- I know they were playing a newly-promoted side and all, but go check out the highlight footage from Man City today. Swansea's keeper Vorm was stellar, but not good enough to contend with Aguero.

He certainly appeared to be struggling for match fitness... ;)

If he can stay healthy and keep it up Citeh should be the clear favorites. We'll see where he is come November and December when the cold and the rain set in.
 
I forgot my login info for the fantasy league. I click the appropriate thingy for them to email my password, but the damned email never arrives!! I officially give up on it. :(

The site has been completely wrecked this week. They did a whole update over the summer, and the launch has not gone well. I'd put money on them having broken the password recovery system too.
 
Hmmm I have that email, but still can't log on and their password email doesn't arrive. Are there any plans to reset our league to start on week 2?
 
The Fire with an MLS record 15th draw of the season.

Nothing like supporting 2 teams who can't close out a game to save their lives...
 
Yeah, it wouldn't be right. I'll just give up on this season.:mug:

Why do that? I'm sure it is a long season I am fairly certain we are all going to have good and bad weeks.

I could care less if we drop week one, it will be a miracle if I win anyway. I would rather have more people playing.
