Good. I didn't want to spoil it for you if you didn't know the FT result.
1-0 is a bit of a good result, Barca will need to win by 2 at home. Somehow I think they might just be capable of that though. Anyway, good luck and knock yourselves out. of scoreing more than 2, should be a interesting game next tuesday.:) |

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Di Mateo said before hand they would have to play 2 perfect games to get to the final. Yesterday was about as good as they could hope for I think, but I cant see their luck lasting to a second game myself. It was a stalwart performance from Chelsea though all the same.
Real Madrids job is a bit trickier, but Id still wager on an all spanish final. |

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
I think a Bayern- Barca final this year. be nice if Barca don't win it again.
It would be normal Spurs luck if we finish 4th and Chelsea win the Champions League taking that 4th English spot! |

European champions Liverpool have been handed a place in next season's Champions League after UEFA decided to bend the rules for the victorious Merseysiders. Liverpool's failure to finish in the Premier League's top four meant they were not entitled to a place in next season's competition, despite lifting the cup after a penalty shootout win over AC Milan in last month's final. All water under the bridge now (not Stamford Bridge:lol:) |

You could always do a Liverpool and write to UEFA and appeal.

I cant help but think that appealing for a 5th european place for english clubs, based on the unfairness of finishing 4th and failing to get in the "Champions" league might be considered taking the piss;)
Under rugby rules the FA should by rights lose a spot as penalty for a frivoulous appeal. Anyway I'll worry if it happens. Both Spurs finishing 4th and Chelsea winning the league still seem unlikely to me. |

It was made crystal clear last time that it was 4 spots and 4 spots only going forward.

Not being able to see the original post but on your reply, I see the chip is still firmly in place in our noted defender of the borders.
I suppose no piss taking was made of Utd fans in the 70s & 80s when we were dire but I suppose the internet and BE werent around then. I have had many a good pint with scousers over here as the type of mentality between rival supporters doesnt exist over here. Dont worry your time will come and if Im still around I expect the same in return. |

Yes it is :lol: though I have noticed that other Pool supporters such as iaink dont take it to heart as you do. Its called taking the piss and friendly rivalry.

It appears he can read my posts hence his comment or read my quotes when posted by other posters so what is the point of the IGNORE function;) |
