"Full speed ahead for the mighty ship Rangers." These days are gone now, And in the past, they will remain. I fear. (That song is about as bad as Merlin)

Terry >Kompany. Agreed. But Suarez>>than Terry.

Many red and white scarves as you would expect. One or two MC, well they are the visitors. Oh and a green and white one. Doubt if it was an exiled hi bee. They can't help themselves, can they?

Not quite "Mago" enough.

David Silva - El Mago.

Will they be shattering the seats in despair? Steve May the big star. Looks a bit weird but he can play. Tims will want to sign him.

Brahim Hemdani, whom I acknowledge to be a man of wisdom wrote this: "He (Aird) has often reminded me of Alex Scott. Unlike Willie Henderson, Alex Scott didn't beat many opponents but he was a devastatingly effective player." I quite like Aird. He tries and doesn't hide. But Scott he's not. Scott scored three on his debut while still in his teens and a few days later got two against the Gunners in a friendly at Highbury. He was the most direct winger I ever saw. Ian McMillan would take out one defender with the pass, Scott would rocket past the second and deliver the cross or finish it himself. A hundred + goals from the wing. So, yes, I like Aird but he's got a long way to go to stand comparison with Scott.

As the tims used to sing "Pow-lo dee Canny- o". Pardew - resources wasted. Here's controversy - Wenger, resources not used. Only one winner there to my mind.
-
Aguero to Chelsea? Can the Russki outbid the Sheiks? Would he fit in at the Bridge? Do you not have enough nifty wee guys? I thought you needed a Drogba Mk 2. Anyway City to win if Toure turns up and Hart can keep Suarez out.
-
I see the argument for Pulis but no, not for me. Pellegrini? City play magical football. Rodgers? Very strong case but my granny wasn't a good manager and she'd do all right with Suarez in the team. But hold on, the Genius needs to be managed and BR seems to have got the hang of it. Mourhino? His record speaks for itself. Martinez? Oh yes and what could he do at Arsenal? Pellegrini's the one and it's still an hour or so 'til the kickoff at Anfield. Expect revisionism before evening.

Phew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not bothered any way really. Soccer-science-wise Athletico v Bayern would be best option.
-
"level-headed journos" Sorry dB but the words "level-headed" and "journos" are impossible to combine.
-
Anyone know how to kick this thing?

" The new owner, having no money, does what every businessman in this situation should to help their cash flow and stops paying all unnecessary expenses. A harsh reality of business is the first such payments that should cease when any company has cash shortages are anything to HMRC." "Should"?
-
Still not a good idea, though, is it? I seem to recall Duff & Phelps in their first report saying the Company had been using the PAYE deductions as working capital "not a sound business strategy". It's usually a sign that a business is on its last legs is it not? Buying time. Putting off the evil day. Not many recoveries from that position I don't think.

Duffed but not horsed.
-
Murder in Munchen tonight? You would think so but I had a feeling about Chelsea and EPL sides are hard to beat. On the other hand Chelsea's task was not so hard and when you do beat an EPL side it's often a drubbing.
-
I thought last week they were still in it. Two goals and a clean sheet at the Bridge not a major problem. As for JM being the greatest, I'll review the matter in five years time.
-
In "Hull City" the problematic bit is "Hull". "City Tigers" would be the better option.
-
I remember wjhen we had far better teams than many Europeans but they held out the ninety minutes against us. Indeed the wily foreigner often stole a goal in the last minutes to put us out. I suppose we got a bit of our own back in the run to Manchester.
-
"As you'll remember, we beat that great Dundee team of Alan Gilzean, Kenny Cameron et al in the 1964 Final; but that, as they say, is another story." Why yes, I remember it well and I look forward to your story.
-
Near to greetin' at the memory. The Hearts final was a replay after a 1-1 draw. Standing room only on a train back to Edinburgh 'Gers and Hearts fans happily mixing. An old guy said to me my team was there to be beaten that day. My response " fair enough but you couldn't do it." No acrimony just football talk. The Dundee champs were a smashing side. Great team to watch but not when cuffing you 1-5. Ian McColl played a blinder in the cup final after being out with injury most of the season.
-
I like Milner. No genius but a good worker. It's exciting stuff. Any one of the top three will be deserving champions. Can Hart or Cech defy Suarez? A couple of years ago I'd have said Cech. Last year I'd have said Hart. Now I'm not sure either is up to it.
-
"Don't see why anyone should like them" Trauttman, Revie, Johnston, Bell, Lee, Summerbee ... I could go on. Plus they play in blue even if it's the wrong shade, plus they're not United. Chelsea have played a lot of nice football over the last ten years but I can't forget their showbiz nonsense in the sixties. Bring back Roy Bentley, I say.
