ILX 2008 Premier League Player of the Season

"Frank Lampard - This Is Your Life"

Leeds

If you'd told me that Titus wasn't gonna be on the shortlist for this at the start of the season, I've have laughed in your face for 15 solid minutes

Campo doesn't really deserve his place on this shortlist, especially ahead of Big Phil Senderos, Darren Bent and Hardy Perennial Matty Taylor.

confidence is a brittle thing

Elephant in room: Kevin Prince Boateng

Manager of the season between Big Sam, Little Sam, Little Kev, and Steve Shitface Ginger Cunt Wanker McClaren to follow.

"Already a winner baby, already a winner"

(xpost WHERE IS MARTIN JOL?!)

I think he's out

Paul "Paul Jewell That Ho" Jewell

Only avowed Marxist to currently manage a league football team.

Nice of him to leave the means of production all over that blonde lass's face.

No one in football has given me more roffles than Steve McClaren so that's a walkover really. Player of the season is a much harder call, tempted to go for Robinson.

Also needs moneyman of the season, between the Anfield Americans, Daniel Levy, and Carson Yeung.

The Campo nomination is a bit like when Sheringham won Player of the Year, he's not necessarily had the best season but we're paying tribute to his overall contribution to the game.

Moneyman of the season = gotta be Ashley.

Cashley is another glaring omission from this thread, dude has kept up his formidable form over the last couple of seasons. I might also be tempted to go for Florent 'This Country Is Shit' Malouda as well.

arsene wenger needs to be on that list of managers

Lassana Diarra is also a massive ommission.

Ooooh he might be a winner, for instant Portsmouth zing plus legendary 'Lasagne Diarra' DJ Martian post.

Sportswriter of the season is DJ Martian.

Benjani?

came into form too late

No love for Voronin?

His goal on Sunday and subsequent irritated reaction were fairly hilarious

Liverpool have given us many prime contenders in previous years - El Hadji Diouf, Bruno Cheyrou, Champions League Winner Djimi Traore, but you might be looking at a barren year unless Harry Kewell comes back in time to play in the Champions League final.

What more does Joey Barton have to do?

Kill someone

regularly play for england!

More 'you fat fuck Lampard' jokes needed.

it's been done.

i hate frank lampard.

"It's one thing not being able to make the Derby first XI, but if I can't even make the ILX poll..."

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Ukraine winger Yevhen Konoplyanka has insisted he has no regrets over snubbing the Premier League in favour of a move to Sevilla this summer, describing La Liga as the best in the world.

The 25-year-old was wanted by Liverpool, Tottenham and Stoke but opted instead to move to the Europa League holders when his contract with Dynamo Kiev expired at the end of last season.

“If I was two-and-a-half metres tall and didn’t know how to control a ball then I may have gone to England, but here [in Spain], the football’s more technical. It’s the best,” he said.

“If I was two-and-a-half metres tall and didn’t know how to control a ball then I may have gone to England."

Can we change the title of the Prem thread to this please?

yes

YEP

idk this feels p urgent can we get something done here

I would certainly undertake to provide a near-continuous stream of high end football parody content if the existing thread was rescued from its current predicament

notwithstanding the all too typical Swansea City erasure I also support this motion

motion for a new thread as changing the title doesn't change the bookmark text

It is done.
