Well done the Geordies!!! I would have loved to have seen Sir Awex smile after that game. Chelsea just didnt get out of 1st gear, i dont know if Man U's result went against them or not! If I didnt have 50 quid on Man U at the start of the season then would like to see the game between them on May 9th being the decider, but 50 quid at 5/1 wants me to see Man U wrap it up early

It was over long ago but we can take something from the fact we practically halved there lead since January and they have "stumbled" over the finishing line. You have to wonder if they stumbled due to the fact they saw us coming back strongly and beat them at parkhead. Yet again, its an "if only" situation - if we could beat Inverness this season then you wonder what the situation would be like just now. Anyway, I dont know if Nakamura will be there next season, but even though he is I dont rate him that much, he has got a crackng free kick but thats it. We all said it this time last year but i say it with more confidence this year - We'll be back next season!!!

Well done Ronaldo, that was well deserved!!! I cant believe team of the year though: Not sure if Van Der Saar would be the best keeper or if Neville and Evra should be in it, but no arguments about Vidic, Rio, Giggs, Scholes and Ronaldo.

Bit of a damp squid as a game, if Newcastle players had better first touches they could be ahead.

I was meant to go back and edit my post to add Cooper in my list.

Should be a great game this lunch time. Chelsea will be all fired up knowing they can close the gap to a point. Hopefully Newcastle can nick a draw but cant see anything other than an away win

Man U dropping points at home to Boro - I didnt see that coming and Chelsea have a chance to chop the lead to 1 point if they win at Newcastle. Run-In's Man U: Man City (A) Everton (A) Chelsea (A) West Ham (H) Chelsea: Newcastle (A) Bolton (H) Arsenal (A) Man U (H) Everton (H) Its 50/50, I think Chelsea could be favourites if they win today.

Nice to hear that!! Its a goal that I cant remember (dont know if i was born)!! But thats what its all about!

West Ham to stuff Everton Charlton to beat that fucks Sheff Utd 11/8 Sunderland to win at Colchester Evs Dunfermline to beat Dundee Utd 11/8 Dont say im not good to yous :cheers:

I got this wrong! Its David Dein who wanted the Yanks investment and Peter Hill Wood who says fuck off you wanky yanks!!! I get a good program on a friday night which is repeated on saturday with Richard Keyes giving us loads of footy info from behind the scenes that he wouldnt repeat in UK, and he says Wenger is close to leaving. He also say Mourinho is a banker to leave Chelsea in the summer - but even i knew that!! HOWEVER ----- HIS REPLACEMENT ---- Roman wants Sir Alex and is prepared to offer him 10 million cash in hand as signing on fee!!!!!!!!!!!

Whats your favourite goal EVER scored by Rangers. No multi suggestions - just the one!!! I have to say the most wildest celebration i ever had was in 1994 when I was at Hampden for Celtic v Rangers (when the mhanks were playing ther for the season) and we won 3-1. Hateley got the opening 2 but when Laudrup broke away and got the 3rd thats the wildest celebration ive ever had and my best goal!!!

...That John Greig is the greatest ever Ger?? Personally i say no but its difficult to say as its a generation thing. However when i look at the record books Bill Struth is one of a few (including Greig) that we must think about. As for playing for Rangers, i would have be biased due to my generation and go with Brian Laudrup as the best EVER player to pull on the blue jersey. He was simply untouchable and he changed the Scottish game, if not the British game as a hole. Paul Gascoigne had the same ability and on his day was probably a better player. Gazza on his day is only 2nd to Maradona on the all time greats for ability. Not even Pele could run with the ball from anywhere on the park and end up sticking it in the back on the net, only the best can do this and Gazza fits on there after Maradona. After that for the Gers you have Greig, Baxter, McCoist, Albertz etc... But Laudrup wins for me!!!!

Its been on the cards and its a great move as he has brought stability to the defence. He has been a breathe of fresh air at the back and taking him ahead of Pressley has turned out to be the better move. Same next season Davie.........

I used to like it when we were at Pittodrie in the Mid-90s and McNee was commentating and we would be right under the gantry singing "McNee talks a lot of shite, McNee talks a lot of shite........" (to the same tune as Rangers are the champions - Go West Pet Shop Boys))

Was just thinking about the weekend coupon myself, il have a wee look on ladbrokes site just now. Not sure who to back this weekend. Charlton and West Ham are 2 of my teams anyway. To be continued........

Its much better, plus in a small ground like tynecastle it would be pumping, and the game would be fast and furious but at hampden it will be like playing with mute on

I cant believe Dunfermline and Hibs have to go back to Hampden for a reply. This should have been decided on the day just like the FA Cup semi between Chelsea and Blackburn. But the decision to take them back to Hampden for a reply is nonsense, they should surely be going to Tynecastle. There was only 25,000 at Hampden so the atmosphere would have been terrible and quiet, but they could fill Tynecastle and have a great cup atmosphere as there is a place in europe for the winners of this game!! - Those running our game couldnt run a bath. They are screening the reply live on TV and due to it being a midweek tie they expect a lower crowd at the game. This is nuts. They cant even suggest simple things to raise the crowd and revenue like - 1) let those who were at the first game in for half price as long as they produce there original ticket. 2) Those who produce there ticket can bring a mate who gets in for a tener 3) Let kids in for a fiver 4) Allow local schools into the East and West Stands (which are closed coz Hibs and Dunfermline cant fill it) in for a quid. 5) Families can buy 2 tickets and the kids get in free All this sort of thing above creates more revenue and a better atmosphere.

This is depressing in a way. Why dont the other clubs want to advance and have a 2nd SPL to try and boost revenue etc!!! The worst part is the SPL may invite the other 8 clubs in and have this breakaway which will create 2 leagues of 10. Who is honestly running the game in Scotland??? They are a joke!!! Everyman and his dog outside those in charge realise we need to expand the SPL to at least 14 teams and scrap a lower division and make it 3 leagues. The likes of Dundee, Gretna, St Johnstone, Livingston, Partick and Clyde are all capable of holding there own against Dunfermline, St Mirren and Motherwell etc and we should have a 16 teams in the top flight. We could be playing each team twice then have some sort of breakaway / split where the bottom sides have some sort of play off and the top sides play each other again.

Yeah ive been reading about this also and agree its a good idea. It stops the internationals being stop/start and disturbing the club campaigns but at the same time creates interest and is a huge advantage to the international teams as they get more time together and play a handful of matches close knit. The only disadvantage i can see is if certain countries seasons are finished but it shouldnt affect to much as many players play abroad.

Well lets hope he gets a good show. The opposition could have been a lot worse, so the potential is there!!!

For some reason Frasers pics do make it look a bit better, maybe the blue looks a bit stronger and darker. The away has potential, but in the link it looks like a chicks top and it comes narrow at the sides.

And a pot belly!!! In all seriousness he needs to trim himself down and he might be more mobile in and around the box.

I think the Americans are different to the other investors. I think they are doing it for other interests and to gain a control in the biggest sport in the world.

This is the exact kinda game the club should allow ST holders in for free after the 15 quid price increase. I can understand the Chelsea game being a money maker but this one should be valid. However I suppose ST holders will have to fork out?? Any word on this?
