Quote from: balladmaker on Today at 01:04:59 PMI'd call it 50/50 on Sunday, it will go down to the wire ... without the penalties this time thankfully.
A draw it is so.

Quote from: imtommygunn on May 22, 2024, 09:16:29 PMVincent Kompany looks like he's going from getting Burnley relegated to managing Bayern Munich?
Pep said he's a good lad though! Harry Kane is really having a mare at Bayern.  Kompany should have come under more pressure last year at Burnley don't know why the media weren't all over him. 

Is Kane having a mare (44 goals in 45 games is some mare) or is Bayern having a mare?

He scored a lot of goals,  always will,  he really though is jinxed. He went there to win trophies and they have their first barren year in over a decade....poor 'Arry!

Do feel sorry for him, he seems like a good spud all the same, but Bayern won't be down for long that's for sure

Seems like it and also talks like he has a spud in his mouth. Bayern Munich will likely be back winning trophies again once they part ways with 'Arry!

Quote from: Capt Pat on May 26, 2024, 09:27:40 PMI think Ten Hags main job was to make progress in the premier league and in Europe. He failed abysmally at that task, getting knocked out of Europe completely at the first hurdle and dropping to a poor 8th in the premier league. Does the fa cup win make up for that. I don't think so. He was lucky to face an off form City in the final.

The only question to be answered is who replaces him.

Didn't Arteta in his first two seasons with Arsenal finish 8th in the Premier League and winning the FA Cup was deemed a success?  As for luck Manchester City were average club until they were lucky that their current billionaire owners chose them.

Derry two point winners in the end and look like the team to beat in the All Ireland series. It's Longford for Armagh next and Dublin for Derry I'll be surprised if the two Ulster finalists don't progress to the All Ireland semi finals.

Quote from: jcpen on May 26, 2024, 12:52:43 PMA bit like Armagh in the Ulster Final  ;D

Armagh objectives this season. Promotion to Division 1 and reach the last eight of the championship anything else will be bonus.  What about your own Laois will they even reach the latter stages of the Tailteann cup? or are you more focused on the hurlers and the where the upcoming Joe McDonagh Cup final will be Laois to lose.

Highly competitive 1st half between two well matched teams.  Half time Armagh 1-3 Derry 0-7

Quote from: jcpen on May 25, 2024, 03:42:09 PMMan Uniteds game to lose now, it's in their hands.

And unlike the Liverpool team you support they didn't lose when got into the position of winning yesterday.

Bad day for sportwashing and soulless clubs with Manchester City unable to add another trophy to their collection and Newcastle United missing out on European football next season.

Comfortable five-point success over Westmeath an improvement on this match last year which won with a late goal. Sets Armagh up nicely for Derry next.

Ademola Lookman scored just four times in near 50 appearances for Everton and he was unused sub in the win against Liverpool in Anfield.

The young Offaly fans are mad to get on the field to celebrate.

That first half proves those pre-match Atalanta odds was more than decent.  Showing why they beat Liverpool 3-0 in Anfield tonight.

Quote from: Captain Obvious on May 22, 2024, 07:14:15 PMIf in it Liverpool would be favourites for tonight's Europa league final yet you can get odds of 7/2 for Atalanta who beat Liverpool 3-0 in Anfield. A bit of value in those odds?



Liverpool were never favourites while Leverkusen were still in the competition. 

Liverpool was favourites. Bayern Leverkusen them became favorurites once Liverpool was eliminated by Atalanta.
