And you are not going to make these jokes when somebody comes and asks the Glazers for repayment on the one billion dollars he borrowed to buy United.

Is it me or does it seem that buying a team now is a lot like flipping a house. Borrow as much finanicing as you can. Knowing the team will make X and you would have enough to repay the payments and keep a little on top of that.

I am sure we pull our resources and credit scores we can get somebody to loan us the 100% financing to buy Luton Town.

yes but thats not the point... thats manchester United... this is Liverpool.

There was kind of an interesting article on ESPN about the downfall of the FA Cup since the 1999-2000 tournament when ManU withdrew from the competition to play in the FIFA Club World Cup.

I still think our second team loosing to the spurs is better than Chelsea loosing to Burnley with a number of their starters playing. It doesn't matter anyways, its just the Carling cup.

That's his 2nd knee problem too. He blew one out totally at PSV before going to United.

[Don Fernando]

he blew his knee 2 times in a row at PSV

[aldukes]

still no excuse for being offside 45 times a game.

[Don Fernando]

or being a prick who played for psv. I'm not a fan.

haven't all his knee problems been on the same knee?

[aldukes]

he must have knee-monia!

THAT WAS BAD!!!!!!!!

just a side note for all the folks that have alvaro arbeloa in their squads... he's suspended for tomorrows match, sub him.

ME thinks that the "respect campaign" is on the verge of collapsing...

You want me to tell you who a bad man is? Daniel Agger. Liverpool bit the bullet and as D.Agger is going back he gets kicked in mouth... LOSES A TOOTH ... PICKS IT UP AND HANDS IT TO A PHYSIO AND GETS BACK IN THE GAME! thats awesome!

no bad men today hold a candle to Vinnie Jones, that whole 'dons team were nails



edit: hahah, just noticed it's Vinnie and the orrible cvnt together again <--^^
