Rumor that Rooney is leaving United?
If this is true I guarantee Spurs show interest and Rooney just laughs at them.
Probably BS though
Let’s just say it was all nut sack-cleats up. Ouch!
It was off a set play after a foul. Bradley and Jones didn’t work well together, contrary to BB’s post game comments. Maybe it’s just do to chemistry and time, but no doubt Jones reads, plays and understands the game better. Not to take anything away from MB, but Jones ruled the MF.
you seem to only ever comment on the referees. There was very little wrong with Tevez’s second.
the officials feel bad for him being so ugly
Does BMG play a seven man defense? No wonder we didn’t see any offense from young Bradley with the USMNT.
…..So did he win the ball or stomp on this dude’s crotch?
Arango Red Card–he got ALL ball(s)!
They have college basketball and college football to show which probably gets them the best ratings.
David Silva caps of a brilliant game with a brilliant goal.
Flown with them 4x from Germany (Baden-Baden) to England (north of London) and to Ireland and Italy. No issues, but recommend pre-boarding option at $5.00 extra cost.
I swear, the rules of football do not seem to apply to Carlos Tevez.
Or maybe it’s just the jersey on his back.
Shameful officiating AGAIN.
Tevez steps on the Blackpool player’s achilles, takes the ball and shoots to score. How does he get away with this crap soooo often.
Easy Jet is as low cost as I go! I actually prefer British Airways on the short haul European flights. However many folks I know like Ryanair okay (mainly for the cheap prices). Kaiser, how has your experience been with them?
And Tevez was definitely offside on that first goal. The refereeing has been horrendous in the EPL today. Everton’s second goal should also have been disallowed as on Arteta’s shot there was an attacker actively offside in the goalie’s line of vision.
Shameful officiating to allow that goal, Tevez was clearly offside.
I never thought I’d say this, but Blackpool is absolutely dominating Man City.
wow Blackpool is playing VERY well at the moment. hope they finish top table this season.
Blackpool are the real deal.
That being said, they need to find a real target striker because DJ Campbell is not going to help you missing all of those easy chances.
Ryan Air – usually no more than $20 round trip if booked 1 month in advance.
Beautiful heads up 60 yd ball from Bradley to Reus lead to Bobodilla goal. BMG 1; Hoffe 0
Dear Ives,
For short European flights try Easy Jet (www.easyjet.com). I fly them everywhere and they are like Southwest. Just an FYI: the speedy boarding is worth it. In addition, http://www.kayak.co.uk works, too.
See you in Rome at Stadio Olimpico. I’ll be there in November……
Arteta! What a shot! Got it through about 8 players from the top of the box! 2-0 Everton
Cahill! 1-0 Everton
Come on Torres with a hattrick.
I hate to root against fellow Americans but the Reds need this more.
Another odd thing. If I go to the home URL, it doesn’t show this entry at all. I got here through the twitter link but it appears to not be on the home page. Strange morning.
He’s doing the whole “europe” thing.
I recommend to ESPN to show
2 PL games every saturday and 2 La Liga matches every Sunday. surely it’s doable. Perhaps costly but the ratings will come.
so many have to watch online streams. why can’t they help a brother out?
This is the earliest I’ve ever seen the “Running Commentary” post. Good morning!
Interesting though, the date stamp says 8:00AM. Ives, are you in Brazil or the Azores or some such?
(SBI-I set the commentary to post at 8am on Sunday, but for some reason it posted it retroactive to 8am on Saturday, which is why it wound up buried and only a few folks could actually find it. That’s what I get for posting at 4am.)
