Welcome

So I did this football blog a fair few years back, but haven't done much in the last few years. Anyway, now this blog will contain occasional posts about everything in the football world... just to contain my boredom. So please read and comment or whatever, I love a debate!

Premier League roundup - 09/05/09-11/05/09

It was another eventful and interesting week-end in the Premier League. On Saturday, Liverpool kept up the pressure on Man United with a comfortable 3-0 win over West Ham at Upton Park. Steven Gerrard netting a brace in the process. West Brom gave themselves some hope of staying up with a 3-1 win over Wigan, while Hull put themselves in more danger after losing 2-1 at home to Stoke. Fulham's quest for Europe continued as they won 3-1 against fighting Aston Villa. Blackburn won 2-0 against Portsmouth, to almost guarantee a place in the Premier League next season, but Portsmouth remain nervy. Everton and Tottenham drawed 0-0 in an evenly matched encounter, and Bolton and Sunderland drew a no score draw too.

On Sunday, It was very much a 'Big Game Sunday'. In the earliest game Manchester United won comfortably against Mark Hughes' helpless Man City, as United look to be on course for another title. Later, Chelsea triumphed 4-1 against a hard-working Arsenal. Florent Malouda and Nicolas Anelka getting on the scoresheet.

One game on Monday, and a major one. Newcastle United came out on top after emerging as the better side against a very troubled Boro side. A Habib Beye own goal gave Boro the lead, but goals from Steven Taylor, Obafemi Martins and Peter Lovenkrands gave Newcastle hope that they can survive the drop. Middlesbrough need a real miracle to avoid the drop.
