Not really, Kroenke is putting the pressure on the people of St Louis to build them a new stadium or they'll be off in a couple of years. Highly unlikely they'd end up in London but he does already have the Emirates stadium. The real fear for the fans is that they end up back in LA.Originally Posted by Haymaker

The game should go ahead because even if he ends up having to pay the stadium owners compo he's not really losing out as he's got the gate receipts from the Wembley game and plus the NFL pay ALL their expenses to come over.

....and breathe....
Still don't fancy us, even with a HT lead. Their penalties have killed them thus far and they're still getting through us too easily.

This is why God provides us with a mute button and the internet. It's quite ridiculous that this lasts a full half hour - the players would probably just rather get on with it! Originally Posted by Gatecrasher

The HT Show was quite a spectacle, although the main protagonists miming left a lot to be desired! (A fine pair of pins for her age tho!)

Better team won and no arguments here. What a catch from Michigan alumnus Mario manningham!
knew we were done when welker missed.
Great season though,despite the ending. Never easy to lose a superbowl....trust me jessies :-PMadness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

Wow what an ending! I thought the giants maybe edged it in the end and I thought the pats missed a fit gronkowski still an amazing game though. It's sad we won't see another game until September

It hurts but the moment Welk
er dropped that ball it was over. We never looked like a big defensive play.

God, my fingers hurt like hell
In the cold light of day, that still stings, but better to have been there and lost, than to not have got there at all.
I was just not confident going into the game - our defense just couldn't step up and be counted, though I can't help but think Wes Welker will be hurting more than the rest of us this morning. Had he just managed to hold on, I wouldn't have been to bed yet.
Thought the Giants played superbly at points and never panicked when they went behind. Eli Manning is definitely one of the elite quarterbacks of the game and commanded his offense well last night and our defense struggled to get near him at times. Penalties probably done more damage to the Giants than our defense did.
To think that people had all but written the Giants off in early December for even making the post-season!
Hopefully we can take this very powerful offensive nucleus, strengthen our defense and come back for another assault next year.
Tickets for Wembley are on sale from 2pm today, so going to secure my chance to see us live next year (with everything crossed).
Cheers for another superb season folks

Well in, i still cant believe last night though. You are right about Eli he showed how good he is. That mad play when the Pats allowed NYG to score! What was your take on that?

It made sense - if he had gone down at the one yard line, the Giants could have taken 3 knees and scored a FG with seconds remaining, thus not giving us a hope of getting the ball back, so I understand why they did it. Originally Posted by Gatecrasher

Still can't get over that pass to Manningham - perfect run and a perfect throw - not to mention the catch!Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

Was pretty disappointed in the Superbore, tbh. It never opened up (not that I expected it too with those teams) and all the excitement/tension was squeezed into the last four minutes. I wish I hadn't bothered. Such a contrast to last year when the Packers triumphed.
Anyway, NBA and NHL business end of seasons approaching slowly, and the pre-baseball season, so plenty Stateside fun ahead. (Let's forget the sacker!)

I wouldn't be surprised if we draft mainly D this year. Outside corners especially.
On reflection I think our Oline performed brilliantly against the giants pass rush bar the safety. Was expecting a lot more sacks.
