    Well done to Arsenal, good come back i have to admit. Still dont think they will win it though. Pity about Celtic not making it because of a penalty that was very harsh near the ned. Well done to them anyway. I hope they win the UEFA Cup.

    Paul Scholes is Back. 3-1 victory over Man City today with Scholes taking two of those goals. A good all round performance from united. A few mistakes and a bit of slack defending leading to our conceded goal. Im happy, i put £100 on us winning today so i get £140 back including my £100. Not much, but what the hell :D :D

    More like 2009 with delays, they should get turkish workers to build it, they built a new road near me and did it before the deadline and didnt cost as much, but with the grant coming from the government it is unlikely that will happen with lansdowne road.

    Anyone hear about the Orangemen collecting funds at Anfield a few weeks ago? Some of the crowd was meant to have gone nuts pelting them with bottles and other missiles.

    Liverpool have lost the plot big time. Henchoz made the most riduclous claim reecently that Liverpool was better than Man Utd on a player level. Bolox.

    The only players at Liverpool that could get into Man Utd team are Owen, Gerard or Hypia, most of their players have no flair or pinache.

    For some strange obsurd reason Houllier thinks Senegal players are the key to success. Houllier try looking in South America.

    Yeah, you can be sure that didnt go down to well at Anfield. Likely hood is that some of them got a good beating.

    I dont think that Sammy Hypia would get into the United team to be honest, Owen and gerard would, possibly Harry Keowell, but thats about it. Man Utd is most detfinitely the better team than Liverpool. Henchoz would make those rediculous claims though, wouldnt he lol.

    prjctsttc - i quite like marquez too, though in Bracelona i prefer Javier Saviola. denilson and juaquin are my favourite palyers from Real Betis.

    Just a thought about how lucky the world is not to have as yet, Australian and American Nationalistic hype and Jingoism associated with the world game when we are subjected to waiting two days of rain delay on the tv networks for Shane Warne to bowl his first over after returning from a Drug test ban, to bowl his first over, and the fiasco of American Super bowl. The older nations have nothing to prove and long may it remain

    Well, that's us through to the FA Cup Semis. Would be an excellent time to lift the cup, considering the recent death of Bob Stokoe, probably the most-loved manager Sunderland has ever had, 30 years on from the victory against Leeds. All in all, a very convincing win today, thought the lads played their hearts out.

    Good result for celtic today, though Rangers are having an awful season and have money troubles. United through the semis and still in contention for the Champions League. Premiership is over i think, especially after the convincing win Arsenal had over Portsmouth...

    The race for the premiership isn't over, unless you are refering to Liverpool's hopes, they've been dead and buried since week 1 :(. CURSE YOU HOULIER!!!!!. As for Man Utd chances, i still think they are pretty good. Look at history, this hasn't been the first time Arsenal has had a huge lead infront of Man Utd coming towards the end of the season. Aresnal always seem to do so well and play very consitent all year and the usually blow it in the last 10 games.

    I suppose to only thing we Liverpool have fans left to look forward to this season is the [bold] SACKING OF HOULIER[/bold]. And for the Liverpool players not being as good as other teams, I don't think this is necessarly true. Sure alot of signing were terible, but that was manly due to the manager [bold](HOULIER THE ARSE[/bold]) playing player where they are not used to, or don't even want to play. Heskey, Diouf in Midfield. WTF was he THINKING. Biscan a defender?? MADNESS.
