...::[The Footy Desk]::... (Part 1)

[Xylophobia]

Leeds have parted company with Warnock.

[Max]

I wish Warnock would part company with life.

 

What a wanker.

[Joseph Cooke]

I wish Warnock would part company with life.

Harsh.

 

 

 

So Chelsea have helped us avoid two derbies in a week. I really want to win the FA Cup. Really.

[Girish]

I really want to win the FA Cup. Really.

Not a snowball's chance in a cat scanner.

[Ari Gold]

I thought you'd be happy if City knocked you out, Girish.

[Girish]

Nope, I realized we have a massive hard on for the FA Cup. More than Rafa's hard on to win anything.

[Joseph Cooke]

I really want to win the FA Cup. Really.

Not a snowball's chance in a cat scanner.

Hmm, Big Bang?

 

 

 

Bob wants a flawless finish, thus I presume he'll go all out for it.

[Der_Don]

Forza la vecchia signora, i bianconeri or whatever you want to call them. Bayern's arrogance is so annoying, hope they'll get a proper beating tonight.

[Crokey]

Hmm, Big Bang?

Yeah, Girish is actually Rajesh Koothrappali.

 

FA Cup would do me nicely, but Chelsea will have their tails up, they don't want to go as long as Arsenal without a cup.

 

Also the Scottish FA issued a survey and found that fans want a bigger top division than the proposed 12-12-18 setup... so looks like we'll be getting that then as they won't listen.

[flitcroft101]

holy sh*t david beckham handed a start vs barcelona

[Der_Don]

1-0 Bayern after some seconds

[Joseph Cooke]

1-0 Bayern after some seconds

2-0 now.

[Miro]

What the hell. 2 meter off-side at Ibrahimovic at the goal. The bastard shouldn't even have played today. Not only that, but he scores from a 2 meter off-side dammit!

[AndyGanteks]

And 'course, penalty in the end for the win, as always. Good game by Bayern, but Juve has a chance still.

 

[Miro]

Not really. 2-2. Good result for Barcelona and for my Champions League prediction.

[AndyGanteks]

Yeah, i rage quitted after the 1-2 penalty goal.

 

But yes, the 1:1 was indeed offside

 

[Travís.]

Please for the love of god, change it to its proper name, "SOCCER"

 

 

[Girish]

It's a sport played using a ball and your feet. It's FOOTBALL. If you want it to be soccer, move to the US.

 

As for the CL, Barca and Bayern will get through eventually. I don't think the home advantage is going to help Juve much. No away goals to count on either.

 

Real will get past Galatsaray tonight. Just hoping for Drogba to get a consolation goal. ;p

[Banks.]

Please for the love of god, change it to its proper name, "SOCCER"

You play with your feet and a ball so it's football

[GTA_stu]

That save from Cech was ridonculous. Great goal from Ba too. Loved the interview afterwards with Fergie and his response when the reporter asked him if they'd be disappointed with "just" the league. Would really love to win the FA cup, again.

[Crokey]

Consider yourself very, very lucky because if a former Admin called MyMothersMySister was still around, you'd be banned for that.

 

Looks like City are after a new member of staff, must speak Spanish, have a clean driving license and be available for away games and training sessions... silly Tevez.

[The Killa]

Two huge chances for Dortmund already, Goatse fluffing both of them.

[Der_Don]

0-0 is a sh*te result.

[LanceVanceDance07]

0-0 is a sh*te result.

Really? You think so? I watched the second half of that match, and Dortmund were by far the better half and got a fairly important result away. Sure, their finishing was not very good, but how can you not be optimistic about the 2nd leg? Malaga may cause an upset, but there is too much quality in this Dortmund side for them to lose at home.

[The Killa]

I think they'd be disappointed not grabbing an away goal, at the very least. They had many chances to do so.

I wouldn't be complaining if it was a 1-1 or 2-2 as I was quite aware of Malaga's unbeaten run at home. But not scoring an important away goal when we had 3-4 huge chances is kinda disappointing. Imagine next week we're 1-0 up with only some seconds to play and Malaga get a last corner or a freekick just outside the box...

 

[flitcroft101]

0-0 away is definitely a dangerous result

 

1 goal and dortmund have a massive mountain to climb

[Waddy]

Right, we are at the business end of the prem...

 

Who will get relegated? I think

 

QPR

Reading

Wigan

 

 

Up top

 

UTD

City

Spurs

Chelsea

Arsenal

Everton/Liverpool

Not necessarily. The away goals rule won't count as usual in Dortmund due to the fact the first game was 0-0. So a 1-1 in the 2nd leg for example would still cause ET and the possibility of penalties.

@Waddy: Going down, for me, is Reading, QPR (Which is gonna be a weird one with all those new quality signings) and Villa. I can see Wigan just doing enough (as per usual). Villa seem to be getting very unlucky, a factor, in my opinion, that will sink them.

 

Sunderland not too far ahead either.
