It has been March for a day. A whole loving day.

loving hell, you might think you cunts don't loving care about the footie anymore. Let's loving talk about driving M3s or what loving shocks to install on an M3 instead, or some other PWM meme, like the loving transgender thing... I mean, do you even lift?

loving hell, even the MLS guys have got a thread up!

I blame austerity. loving Limeys can't even shake their lethargy to make a month post. Sometimes I really question you guys. The youth of today can be only counted on to disappoint their elders.

Anyway, here is your loving table at the beginning of March.



Provided the wheels don't fall off, Man Utd look pretty drat good for the league title, which will result in a few more popped veins in SAF's nose.

The rest of the CL spots are not so nailed on and the relegation zone is far from settled, so let's take a look at fixtures for March:





A few derbies, but all in all, not an outstanding month for a "Super Sunday" type matches. Of course, there is the Spurs v Gunners match, which is always entertaining. Besides that and the derbies, however, the natural intrigue of matches sort of drops off.

In short, this month is when who gets relegated and who finishes in Europe will likely be decided. A bunch of matches that appear to have no redemning quality other than 3 points.

And that is, of course, the whole point of the league, to get those 3 points. I wouldn't be surprised that we enter April with very few questions yet to be answered.

Not included, of course, is the yearly question of whether Wigan will avoid relegation. That will go to the final day.

Ddropping a few too many f-bombs in the OP for my liking, OP, but well done on creating a thread I guess. While I am watching United v Norwich, my PICK OF THE DAY is Swansea v Newcastle. Wigan will begin their end of season Hulk-out at home to Liverpool today and go unbeaten until the end of the season

e: a bit too matchday, that

Sammy and Shola also talked to the Daily Mail a few days back. It's a decent read considering it's from the Mail.

Some choice quotes:

I was grounded all the time for jumping out of windows to play football and coming home late. Sammy? He was weird. He was into computers.

I don't think I really played football. It was Supernintendo, Street Fighter.

I've got a quote from Hoolahan's youth team coach in an Irish newspaper that says he actually completed it, but I really don't think that makes it true.

Googling 'beep test world record' doesn't appear to have any confirmed results of anyone getting higher than level 19.

Where's Tom he could sort this out for us, big fitness nerd that he is.

I'm not sure if anyone has completed it, probably the best athlete to do it would be a cyclist or cross country skier, I doubt a soccer player would be able to get close to that high of a VO2 max as it is more of an anaerobic sport.

If Hoolahan is really that talented he should be competing in an endurance sport.

Confirming that if City drop seven points from their next three games United can win the league at Old Trafford in April

How much is needed to complete it? I know at least one norwegian footballer that tested around 85 VO2max.

I didn't realise the bleep test was an internationally standard thing. There were a few lads in my school year in PE who completed our version but if I remember right it only went up to level 10.

Man he was dumb for lashing out at fans like he did. At least he spoke his mind. Now he just needs to tell the truth and admit he's a wretched manager who belongs elsewhere.

I'm not a Chelsea fan at all, but I am heavily sympathetic for Di Matteo. He be the right man for the job or not, he was good to the fans and great with the players.

85 is at the elite level of blood doping. That footballer probably has skier friends and 'asthma'.

QPR also have exactly the kind of run in their up coming games to get out of the relegation zone if they can win. Sunderland, Fulham, Wigan, Stoke, Villa and Reading in their next 7 matches. Likely hosed if they don't though because then its Newcastle, Liverpool and Arsenal for final 3 of the season

could see any of QPR, villa, reading and soton go down. Maybe Norwich but unlikely.
