1989 Yquem costs 1989 a bottle, my autistic spectrum approves.

We will not be doing that lol


Middlesbrough collapse is quite the thing. Losing at home to Pompey with 20 shots to three, 72% possession and 14 corners to two having been level in the 96th minute is hilarious. Millwall only drawing last night looks like it's gifting Ipswich the second auto spot, assuming Cov get the first bit as they couldn't score against a team still on negative points I have to assume they are hugely fraudulent

I have watched maybe 22-28 Arsenal games this season across all comps mate.

You're denying you were amazing the first several months of the season? People were talking about the defense as one of the best ever and you were scoring goals for fun.

Good grief no of course I'm not denying that. Did you even read my post? I was talking about what's happened since January. Before then we looked like we'd win the league by 10 or more points. Since then teams have adopted very good low blocks and have learned how to exploit Zubimendi and so far no answer has been found.

You literally replied to my post saying you were amazing at the start and therefore you have it in you telling me that I didnt watch enough Arsenal games to say that.

I get you soend your energy finding ways to hate Spurs and deride the dead but have a word once in a while.


"They definitely have it in them" is what I'm arguing against. It's pretty meaningless when they get found out by analysts and have no answer.

Maybe something will change, I don't know, but they've been crap since January and have ground out narrow win after narrow win as you'll know if you've watched that many games. Eventually those fine margins implode.


Was gonna say the happy hour looks like outstanding value but I forgot you have to tip minimum 20% on everything. Even then for somewhere that good I'd be happy with a 4pm steak at that price

Prices are also pre-10.25% Cook County sales tax. So add 30+% to the prices to what you're actually going to pay.

I mean i hope you're correct obv. City have also been quite meh for most of 2026 though.


true. worst champion since lester incoming. or last season

related: lester looking good for relegation to league one

before that, manure in 2010-11. definitely failed to appreciate that they won a title when berbatov and nani were among their very best players

Yes, naturally, anything else would be as weird as the lifelong Arsenal fan I used to work with who married a Spurs season ticket holder and ended up liking them.

City have been very up and down but Haaland looks back on form and Semenyo is obviously a brilliant attacker so a lot depends on their defence, but they are in form now and Arsenal certainly aren't and initiative counts for a lot in a title race.

My European mind cannot comprehend that tips start at 20%. Definitely the biggest culture shock for me in the US.

Also we got another big game today lads. We are trying to kick out our fat Putin agent in elections. Wish us luck. Hope we show more heart than Arsenal yesterday


by TheGramuel

You definitely dont look worse than us LOL, but yeah agree with you.Plenty of teams have gone down without being in the worst three in the league etc, you look like you'll need a bit of rungood now but whatever its still the likely outcome.A mate of mine and I put a bet on when City were like 7/1, I havr Arsenal he has City, dinner in Chicago in June when I visit. In reality I

Please consult me first if you do win and head to Steak. Also, be sure to spring for their Baked Alaska, that is too much fun to watch being made

Will do. Ive been 3 or 4x before but never got the Baked Alaska tbh (I am a type 1 diabetic so desserts are rare for me)


Kinsky back in goal for Spurs, honestly hope its not as brutal as last time for him.

Haha, exactly the same for me. And the fact that we Europeans find it odd, they see as rude.

But simply paying your waiters and servers a normal wage so they dont rely on tips seems odd to them, but quite rude to me..


Wow we haven't been awarded a penalty in the prem this year.

Decisions against Tottenham


3 of our defenders on yellows less than 40m in. Is that good?


Romero lol


by SootedPowa

Romero lol

LOL he was really good in that half but absolutely horrendous angry tackle from behind puts him on a yellow. So frustrating.

When he thumped a Sunderland player on the back of the head near the end of the half there he could have been sent off with a second yellow imo. There was absolutely no need. Peak entertainment.

I mean that would have been stupidly harsh


It certainly looked like Udogie got fouled on that play just outside the box.


That looked nasty


I thought that was Romero's fault when I saw it live, but it definitely wasn't.
