Football is back !!

The English Premier League 2011/12 season started today.

My team, Bolton Wanderers were playing away in London to newly promoted Queens Park Rangers.

We had a superb start to the season, winning 4-0 !

I followed the game on TV (for the benefit of overseas viewers, you cannot watch live football on TV on Saturday afternoons, so when we are not at the game we follow our teams by listening to live updates from football pundits / experts)

The pundit at QPR was a fans favourite Chris "Kammy" Kamara. Chris is seen here getting excited as Bolton score goal number four :) :) :)

To see Chris at his best follow the link below (you won't be disappointed)

Kammy is nuts (as you would expect of someone who had not one,but two spells at Pompey LOL...)

Love this show,shame no longerfree on freeview :-(

Word of warning mate... Blackpool won 4-0 away on first day of the season last year and got relegated !!!

PS.. See Le Fondre continues to bang em in...Pompey should sign him up...

@andycoleborn just happy to get 3 points on the board andy..next 6 matches man city, man utd, liverpool, arsenal , chelsea ...with norwich in the middle of them !!

I suspect there may be just about 3 teams worse than us this season !

[andy c]

@phil_howcroft Ooo tough...my Newcastle mate says the same(Norwich, Wigan and QPR he reckons)

[peter/zipp]

@phil_howcroft @andycoleborn hahaha i forgot how funny that is - Kamara!
He is still a bit of a legend at Leeds..

Went today - ref killed the game. The most undirtyist game ever! not a tackle but 3 RED cards.
Unbelieveable.

[Tashy]

Fun shot, I had a great chat with a lady on the train who was a big Norwich City fan - quite an education! Fastest train journey to Norwich I have ever had - can't beat a good chinnie. Can't you get live togger on Sky?

[Catherine]

Hey Phil! Your team won 4-0! You must be on cloud 9 :))

[Constance Brinkley]
