Actually, I think I read somewhere that they actively avoid it.DrewDawg said:Wow, Sturridge makes it 2-1 and Newcastle down to 10.
So, do they ever set the big clubs up to play on the final day?
Bailey10 said:Shola goals ending his Newcastle career in style. Was that a straight red or two quick yellows? Didn't think it was possible to get a straight red for dissent.
Mostly because Tiote would have broken him in half.PedroSpecialK said:Sterling is pretty god damn lucky that stomp on Tioté didn't connect
SoxFanInCali said:Robbie Earle criticizing Rodgers for saying the title was gone after the Palace draw, saying Jose Mourinho wouldn't say something like that.
Um, Mourinho has been saying all year that Chelsea wouldn't win it, even when they were top of the table.

I mean the enthusiasm is great and all, but after the myriad issues involving random violence and especially crowd control at sporting events, this is pretty nuts.
The match between Zenit St. Petersburg and Dinamo Moscow has been abandoned after Zenit fans invaded the pitch and one of them attacked an opposition player.

Handing the trophy directly to the team captain rather than the owner is what makes it awesome, as well. It's why the Stanley Cup presentation is by far the best one in North American sports.mabrowndog said:OK, that trophy presentation was pretty fucking awesome to watch. No hokey bullshit interviews conducted by know-nothing know-it-alls like we get in US sports, and no a-hole sponsorship reps hogging the stage for marketing purposes. Just pass out the medals one by one, let the fans cheer each member, and hand them the trophy as the crowd goes apeshit.
I'd say its by far the best one... period. It has the best trophy too which gives it an enormous leg up on the competition.SoxFanInCali said:Handing the trophy directly to the team captain rather than the owner is what makes it awesome, as well.
