Good work Tony.

Things that interested me this week was the end of the Man Utd and Arsenal game. From what I cold see several Arsenal players should get long bans and the club a huge fine for the continued bad behaviour.

Dundee play tomorrow so I shall be listening to that online.

Another thing was I discovered a Montrose fan on the forum - I shall not name him since Hibs beat them 9- 0 today, yes I did say NINE!

What has happened to Newcastle this year?

Who should be the new Tottenham boss?

I don't think I've ever met a Montrose fan...beaten 9-0 by Hibs is a shocker though.

Looks like the Davids thing might have been a publicity stunt, it looks likely he will sign for Roma. I was wondering where Dundee would get his 70k a week wages.

Havent seen the Man Utd/Arsenal fracas...seems to be a lot of bad blood building between those two though.

I've heard stuff about Alex Mcleish going to Spurs...dunno though, I'm not that convinced he's a Premiership manager
:rolleyes:

Keown's behaviour was out of order. I'm sure it was him that also tried to wind up di Canio a couple of years ago as he was leaving the pitch after being sent off for pushing over the ref. Paulo made as if to go for him and Keown shat it. As well as being an ugly barsteward he's a ned. Actually that's not fair on neds, Keown's not clever enough.

Stockport go upset hunting at Everton tonight.

(prolly get our arse's kicked but that's pretty much a given)

(Streaming real audio - links will only work when the match is on.)
*Disclaimer - I can't guarantee these will be used for the UEFA matches, the only way to find out it to click the links and see.

- I'm just looking at the teams and wondering where the upset will come.
Dundee have a toughy, even though it is Perugia.
Blackburn are away first leg - have to travel to Turkey...... and we all know what happens there, so keep an eye on the headlines.
Liverpool - again another unknown.

Good luck to all of them anyway.

That Arsenal man u finish was highly entertaining.

Its not like anyone was hurt. The game was highly charged as always and its typical man u to get a penalty in the closing minutes. So I think the fact Arsenal went a bit over the top is not surprising, had the media not got on top of this nothing would be said!

If you have Fox Sports World the City match is being shown live today at 3pm (et)

Or "Look at me - i'm a Starfish"


I see the FA have charged 5 Arsenal players plus the club as well as 2 Man Utd players.
