Drogba Dive > Chelsea score from set piece

Beautiful effort today

So Edu seems like a steady starter for the Rangers now, that's cool. I'm surprised Szetela can't break into Brescia's squad; I had really high hopes for him after the U21s a few years ago.

I'd really like one of these teams to win today, increasing the chances Hull need three points on the final day of the season on the off chance United do something dumb like lose to Wigan or Arsenal this week. Not that Hull would ever succeed in getting three points off United, but it can't hurt to dream.

oh my....3 on 1 and we didn't convert

So Boro and West Brom are more or less gone, with Hull in the drop zone. Newcastle only out of it by goal differential. I guess Sunderland could still go, but looks something like 60/30/10 now with Hull most likely.

So it will be

16. Sunderland, 36 points, -17 GD
17. Newcastle, 34 points, -17 DG

18. Hull, 34 points, -24 GD
19. Boro, 31 points, -26 GD
20. West Brom, 31 points, -29 GD

Sunderland has

@ Pompey
Chelsea

Newcastle has

Fulham
@ Villa

Hull has

@ Bolton
Man United

Boro has

Villa
@ West Ham

West Brom has

Liverpool
@ Blackburn

So yeah, West Brom are done, and I think its nearly a dead cert that Boro are done too having two games against top half of the table teams.

Hull catch a break because Man U might have the title wrapped against Arsenal. But that away game at Bolton is tricky. Newcastle has two tough games though, not out of the woods yet.

Sunderland are probably really pissed Chelsea lost to Barca. They'd be facing the worst reserve side ever that last weekend with Chelsea having two cup finals in the week after the league ends. Still hard to see Hull and Newcastle both actually winning games (and in Hull's case with their crappy GD getting a result in the other), so it probably shouldn't matter.

Any of you guys know a good place online to shop for soccer merchandise?

I've used Subside Sports a couple times and had a pleasant experience but I've never really compared it to other stores.

Rudy Zolteck: Give us a break, coach. You could never beat Kevin O'Shea at *anything*!
Danny O'Shea: That's not true. I did beat him once.
Jake Berman: When?
Danny O'Shea: When we were kids. We used to race our bikes down Cherry Hill every day after school. We raced every day and he always beat me, but one time, one time... I beat him.
Jake Berman: You beat Kevin down Cherry Hill?
Danny O'Shea: Yes, I did. He ate my dust.

COME ON WIGAN

Oh my fucking god. In all alone. How do you not hit the target? Motherfucker.

We are relying on Steve fucking Bruce and TItus Bramble to make our day. It makes me sick to my stomach. It's noxious, like a lungful of finest silage
