Yes. That was Conor McNamara.

He sounded proper excited - probably one of the 697 million deluded f**kwit's
He's a gobshite rag sycophant who knows nothing about sport, got badly shown up when trying rugby commentary over here and being unable to shoe in rag cliches every 20 seconds instead of doing his job.
 
The bitterness in this thread is funny.

"Why was they celebrating a last minute winner after being 2-0 and a good strike winning it" Hmmm let me think. You are allowed to celebrate victories if you aren't top of the league. Stop turning into tossers.


But it's all about keeping things in proportion and perspective, they, their fans and the commentators all celebrated like they'd just won a huge game of massive importance or beaten a local rival.... not scraping a fluky win against a relegation candidate.
 
If they stopped trying to play the passing game and started getting it wide and lumping crosses into the box from the first minute, I’m sure they wouldn’t have scares like last night.

If it was City would we have done the same? If this happened when we was shit we would have celebrated it like mad too. It also keeps them above Liverpool which considering they wont win the league now it is their only aim. Scoring a winner in that moment it wouldn't matter who you are playing or the circumstances. We had that weird fucker run on the pitch at Palace away holding his daughter when we scored, it's adrenaline.
 
Lukaku looks more and more like a heavy wieght boxer every time I see him

Minus the aggression. Very imposing physically (simply overshadows Benteke now), and he has a surprisingly good turn of speed for such a large man, but deep down I suspect he doesn't relish the physical side of the game. Would still expect Kompany to bully him and Generalissimo Otamendi, Master of the Dark Arts, to intimidate him.

Ota intimidated him so badly in December that Lukaku handed over the ball in his own penalty area just to be left alone.
 
I think football celebrations are proportionate to your expectations. The rags didn't expect to beat Palace so, for them, it was a wank-worthy result notwithstanding that it means fuck all in the scheme of things.
 
That result last night wasn't as bad as is seems.
If they get 3,4 or 6 points from the next two games and we match or better it then we can win the league against them in the derby. If this happens I will believe there is a god!!

They were right to celebrate. The are winning the ''Above Liverpool Cup''.
 
I'm really interested to see what happens at weekend, Liverpool are proberbly the most similar side to us in the league with regard to the press and lethal frontline. Knowing how PEG sets up he will not want to lose either game and so is likely to set up to defend first and worry about attacking on the break. To be fair by the time the Derby comes around he hay have to win the game to stay in the title race or at least to put it off for another week. However I can not see him going all out in either game.

I suspect the tactics and line up used against the dippers will be identical to what he puts out against us. This will give Pep a very good indication of what to expect.
