Pompey continue their flying start to the season by getting knocked out of the League Cup to Bournemouth

[garethom]

Some good upsets last night.

Boro knocked out Accrington Stanley, Brighton knocked out by Newport, Wolves knocked out by Morecambe (although not sure we can call that an upset anymore )

Accrington Stanley

Can't ever hear their name without thinking of this advert;

[scspkr99]

Whenever I was away from Liverpool, Accrington Stanley would be something I'd be asked to say, like Brookside

Please God, no.

He would have been far from my first choice at the start of the window, but Wenger seems to have decided its Suarez or no one. We've only got 2 strikers at the moment and neither are exactly reliable ...

My worry is that his behaviour towards Liverpool is exactly where we'd be in a couple of years when he wants to move to Spain

Ooo are dey??

That advert's indelibly imprinted on my brain.

it really is an indelible image

I have that no memory of that one, but there's one footballer advert i'll never forget

On a similar tip

I'm liking these Suarez pictures lately. Every shot of him features his face looking either forlorn or heartbroken.

[magma]

I can't enjoy them because I'm terrified that he might end up at the Emirates.

Can't he just spontaneously explode this afternoon and save everyone the unpleasantness of his continued existence?

[gwa]

but what if he signs 4 u and scores 50 goals n you win silver wear

what would u do??!

[gwa]

wud u say u don't want it cos he's racist or wud u go


YOU'RE NOT SINGING ANY MORE YOU'RE NOT SINGING YOU'RE NOT SINGING YOU'RE NOT SINGING ANYMORE

I'm worried that my head might explode in the emotional paradox.

I think the best situation all round would be for him to be top scorer, Arsenal win the league and then for him to get mugged for his winner's medal and set on fire by a group of otherwise incredibly nice Arsenal fans right outside the Emirates.

Meh give it a rest- i'd give my right hand to have suarez for leeds (well maybe not, but a lump of flesh where he bit me would be acceptable).

Most footballers are stnuc and its always better to have the best stnuc on your team- then when they do something cunty or amazing you can shake your head and laugh a bit while the opposition is futiley enraged.

There are certain levels of cuntiness I'm content with - racism in 2013 isn't one of them and tbh, neither is the way he's treated every club he's ever played for. To think he'd treat Arsenal any differently isn't based in any kind of reality... even if half the Arsenal fans accept him, they'll hate him by the end of his time at the club.

He should be blacklisted from football.

Or should that be n-wordlisted.

Haha, you'll be the complete wanker package, it'll be perfect.

Agree with this. Still trying to work out whether King Zlatan kicking his team mates is funny or just c*ntish, cracks me up every fucking time though

I'm going to agree with you to a point. Not about the racism but we've done that.

What I am going to agree with you on is that our lack of principles as fans has contributed to the game some of us love being ever more detached from us. The money the marketing the blanket coverage the football administrators that now get in the papers we've allowed this to happen and I actually think it's a decent position to take when you put morality above your football club.

You may consider me a hypocrit fwiw for putting my football club above my morals though I'll contend I didn't.
