He’s still ridden over a million quid in prize money this year, again, as he has done for 16 out of the last 17 years – over 40 million quid won during those past 17 years and that’s not counting any rides outside the UK
Most jockeys would give their legs for those numbers
Shame you can’t stop the season now as 4th is the best you can hope for. Probably be 5th tomorrow evening and 6th within a week or so with United breathing hard down your neck for that place.
With Suarez buggering off to Madrid (£70M release clause) in the summer so he can play CL football and Everton being the best team in Merseyside, again, Rodgers should be joining Moyes down the job centre.
Softly, softly, catchey monkey…
Arsenal at 33/1 is rude, as is Portugal at 33/1 for the World Cup and they make a cute little 1155/1 double.
Chuck in Tidal Bay at 25s and you have a gorgeous 30055/1 treble and a super-sexy little Trixie…
A couple of peanuts could yield a mighty big tree.
Players need to watch Suarez for coaching tips on how to dive like an Olympian.
Wonder when the Utd fans will realise that it’s not a blip and now that they have lost the fergie factor this is it, this is their level – before or after Moyes goes?
Let’s hope the Glazers don’t encourage Moyes to spend huge, then take huge amounts of cash out of the club before leaving it a debt-ridden shell floating towards the championship…
Adams beats O’Shea 3-0, 3-0, 3-0 for a set/leg whitewatch. Scored better than his prelim but still could do better on finishing so potentially more improvement to come and he now has a couple of soft games before he should meet Wilson in the semi, Bunting/Green semi in the other half? If Adams makes the final he is less likely to bottle it than whoever he plays. 25 on betfair into 8 now and he was matched at a lot bigger than 25, layers maybe sweating it a bit.
On a plus side, if anybody asks you who won the Ashes in 2013 the correct answer is both England and Australia won the Ashes in 2013 and nobody won them in 2014. Therefore we can call it a draw.
They shouldn’t have the BDO darts on so soon after the PDC, makes it look like pub darts.
Martin Adams was 25s+ on betfair before arrows were thrown and for a 3 time champion who to get to the final has just 3 easy games to win plus a match against the Lakeside choker O’Shea and possibly a game against ‘bottler’ Wilson (it would have been Wilson/Waites) that price looked silly – even more so when he threw bad in his prelim but with an average that could be a winner against anybody in this amateur bash. Shimizu was quality entertainment today though.
Yeah, Tottenham said the same about Bale but he went for less and now we’ll have the earliest St.Totteringham’s day for years
What are you smoking? Check out the latest reports, he’s got maybe 2-3 years left in him and is unpredictable and tends not to play full seasons, the business owners will make a business decision, it will be nothing to do with the fans or the ‘manager’ money will talk and he will walk.
If you read all of this thread and the Wenger one you’d gather that Arsenal have a manager that isn’t up to it, a leaky defence, no strength in midfield and are lacking a striker – if that’s the case why is everybody looking up at them and have done for all of 2013 – must be a proper rubbish league
Happy new year and good luck with finally maybe getting back the number one spot in Merseyside, looks like European clubs can cancel the extra security for another season..
We’ve scored more goals this calendar year then any other side, just need more squad depth which will happen next month.
Hmmm, but if it was done on a calendar year Arsenal would still be top and Liverpool would still be outside the top four. Mind you, looking at a calendar year is the only way you can finish ahead of Everton these days.
Another non-Europe sub-Everton finish and you’ll all be calling for Rafa again.
Maybe time to swap the arm-biting Tom Daley impersonator for the £60m Madrid will be waving shortly and get some midfielders and a decent defence sorted..
Yes, they’ve all played each other as it’s the half way point.
At least you’ve accepted Liverpool won’t be troubling the top three and that United will likely finish above them, which means the best they are looking at is Europa.
But that will depend on the games against Tottenham, Newcastle and not forgetting the best team in Merseyside on recent season’s form, Everton. Bad results against these teams and no improvement on last year is on the cards and the odds on Rodgers being gone by Summer must look almost as good as those for Suarez to go to Madrid if not in January, in the summer.
Perhaps Everton for fourth with United fighting Spurs for Europa, with Newcastle/Liverpool arguing over 7th/8th?
Still, they are top of the fair play table so maybe EUFA might throw them a bone out of sympathy if they can keep the referees onside? Maybe a preliminary play-off with Young Boys for a spot in the Thursday night let down league..
Unfortunately Chelsea outplayed and out-bullied them, it was another splash from the diver but no penalty and I wanted to see a penalty too for the draw.
Still, back on top with some soft games to keep them there till the first week in February then a difficult couple of months, if Arsenal are within 3 points of the top at the end of March I’ll be happy, though top team at the end of the year usually wins – if it was done on calendar years Arsenal are top for 2013.
Liverpool back outside the top four again and not even the best team in Liverpool again, with Spurs and Utd recovering they may not even make Europa, again, which is poor considering they don’t have the distraction of European football either.
Nearly a quarter of a century since Liverpool last won it and everybody involved then are collecting their pensions now and they’re on their ninth manager since last winning it – if it was down to stats, the computer is saying no again..
You need another look at April, it’s Arsenal with the soft run in for April/May and the rest of this year and January are soft too but you’re right about February/March, not looking forward to that period.
Could also do without messing about in the FA Cup which spuds can happily take over and Liverpool are also lucky in not having to be distracted by Champions League football, again. Your season still hinges on one unpredictable person though.
It just means he will be more expensive to buy if a big club come for him and he wants to move. Liverpool’s hopes will end if he gets injured, banned or moves.
The difficult spell is over for Arsenal, six green games coming up with an easier run to the end of January than Man City and Chelsea with Liverpool’s turn for a testing run.
End of January should see Arsenal and Man City in the top two spots and Chelsea/Liverpool filling three and four.
There’s a mini league of four teams fighting for Europa mediocrity and the rest don’t matter.
but you probably weren’t born when they last won the league and may not see them win another – by your twisted logic Aston Villa are bigger than Man C and Chelsea and Huddersfield are bigger than Spurs
desperately living in the past because the present and future are bleak..
Delusional nonsense – Stephen Hendry’s trophy haul will never be bettered but is he the biggest player in the game? No, he used to be but isn’t any more, he is an ex-player, like Steve Davis who just remembers when he used to win, like Liverpool are an ex-top team, not even the best in their own town now and not good enough for European football any more.
Arsenal and United are valued at a billion, Liverpool a third of that, Arsenal and United average 60k a gate, Liverpool a third less.
Keep living on your past, seeing as how you can’t compete in the present, at least you won’t need to check the CL draw on Monday, again. Enjoy that international cup tie with Cardiff.
Read it again, all I pointed out were the facts why Liverpoo aren’t the biggest team in their own town and why Arsenal and United are the two biggest British teams by far. Facts.
I raise you with http://www.spiritofshankly.com/ or is that lower?
