Confession - I always hope United win coz (with 1996 as the only exception) the alternative in May's ALWAYS worse. Combat 18 FC :shit:, Effete Metrosexual Arsenal:notallthere:, Oil crook C$ty :shit: I can like this result with Feebes in mind, tho.
Their fans always look like pure fucking weirdos. Long curly hair and black cashmere scarves tied in complex knots.
We were absolutely excellent from start to finish tonight. Thoroughly deserved. We might just have come through a bit of a blip and could push on again. Ba and Tiote will be big misses, though. Our first team is actually a very decent side- Krul, Collocini, Taylor, Tiote, Cabaye and Ba are a very solid spine (Ben Arfa will show his class when Ba leaves BTW. He is quality) and with some investment elsewhere (not a fucking chance) we could actually start to push for a Europa spot. There isn't a lot of quality in the PL at the moment- the standard is the worst I can remember for over 15 years. Oh, and Pardew deserves credit. I, and others, thought him a stooge, a mouth and out of his depth. I was wrong. He is still a stooge but he isn't really a mouth and he's actually proving himself a very good manager. MTF
:: Ironically I still feel that way about Celtic that year. When Gazza scored a hat trick to win it for Rangers on the penultimate weekend, Scotsport played out with 'the winner takes it all' by ABBA. I started blubbling. :crying: Can just picture that cunt Jim White slow dancing dancing gleefully in the studio, on his 2nd glass of champagne before it faded to adverts
:: :: Arsenal fans ARE weirdos, but they're harmless. I much prefer chatting football with Arsenal fans than the United or Chelsea wankers round these parts. Even when they were winning things they were never annoyingly in your face about it like the others, you never really minded them being successful.
United beaten. Everton beaten. I should be happy but I'm not for some strange reason. Didn't get to do any exercising today on account of the utterly ludicrous weather.
I've read some shit in my time but this has to take the biscuit............ About Robbie Keane coming back to Anfield. :laugh11: I'm not laughing at Keane per se but at the "Strong Rumours Going Round Tallaght, Where He is From" bit. The only strong thing going around Tallaght last night was the fucking wind.
He's basically penciled in for Villa, which, with respect, is about his level. In any case, I don't want him at Liverpool, all the attention fucking with both brain cells in his head- I want him rested and ready for the Euros. He;ll get that with a few-games-here-few-games-there kind of thing.
Which FA Cup games are on the BBC this weekend? Pretty sure Man City v Man Utd will be on tv - kick off 13.00hrs.
"The Magic of the FA Cup" :rock: Do you believe the old barnacle about how if Citeh beat United this gives them a big fillip for the title race, and vice versa for United if they beat Citeh?
Yeah, but to be honest, United aren't looking title material. I know they've got a host of players to come back and still have to play Citeh in April, but I feel Citeh will be well ahead by that stage.
I picked United to win the title before the season began and think United are the best team i've seen this season at Loftus Road, but Citeh just have that extra something about them this season.
Yeah, extra £50 Billion about them :: Still fancy United myself. Other teams will still lay down and bite their pillow, but Citeh will have to scrap every point they get. There are a lot of unknowns,this Europa League could prove interesting. I just don't think Citeh have the experience yet.
It's true, experience counts for alot. Citeh went through a mini blip around christmas but are back on track after beating Liverpool. Who knows, they could go through another blip which could effect their title challenge. I can't see it though.
I think City will walk it in the end to be honest, although I did also say Arsenal will win the Premier League...
