OK sounds good. You knock the f**kers out of the Cup, and we'll (do our pathetic best) to kill their Prem ambitions.

Deal?

i see as ususal the more mediocre teams feel the need to conspire in order to defeat the mighty reds. i really have some sympathy for you, it must be terrible to do nothing year in year out, becoming so bitter and twisted in the process, consumed by envy as utd do so well.
my prediction, utd will narrowly beat arsenal, 0-0 HT, 1-0 utd FT. Newcastle we will trounce, 2-0 HT, 4-1 FT.

If you think you are endearing either yourself or your football team to anyone with this sort of humourless comment, think again.

Likely right. But think how many people will be dead chuffed if you're wrong.

Gehen Sie im Frieden vor, aber treuen Sie niemand.

i've no idea what the last bit means, but you do seem to be terribly touchy on this subject. why would loads of people be chuffed, i can understand your supporters, or arsenal, natural to beat an arch rival or a team higher up the league, but everyone else?

as to the first bit, simply a case of some light hearted banter, nothing more, unnecessary to be so harsh.

after 4-1 at the Villa.

After the 4-1 at Villa, yes.

We'll teck 'em by surprise. Rope-a-dope, eh?

Wanna bet

nope

good odds

Such as?

Liverpool 1-2 Barnsley

Can this day get any better?

Liverpool's season will be over when Inter Milan Crush them next week.

Bit of an upset that.

4-0 in the Big Game. Do you think ManUre might be a bit cocky next weekend?

We deserved to lose, I'm unhappy to admit. Our defence was non-existant, our midfield was poor and our offense wasn't offensive enough. I know we had injuries and were looking towards the AC Milan game next week, but Man Utd ran us in circles. We were lucky Lehmann was our best player today (how I thought I'd never say that), it could have been 10-0 to Man Utd.

Ah, everyone has an off day.

<when we will have our next on day? Saturday?>

And good luck to all the Prem teams in Europe this week (even ManUre, but not Chel$hite)
