Every now and then a Llamasoftie will say something interesting. Honestly! This is where we will keep these topics so that they don't get deleted.

You're not saying Nottingham Forest are the greatest English club side we've ever seen, are you? :wink:

OK, then... Won the European Cup four times, retained it once, 18 league titles. :)

We looked shit last night, though.

Also, Newcastle have thrown away a game AGAIN! That's 2/9 points so far. Sort it out, Sir Bobby!

<shrug> Well, if Hasslebaink's goal had been (rightly) ruled out, and the second goal tonight was offside (according to my mate at the other end), then it would be 6/9. Luck's not been on our side so far. It's very frustrating. We're not playing that badly. Hopefully it can get worked out. I suspect that Mr. Kluivert will / should start the next game, though.

I must admit though that Arsenal are looking outstanding yet again. It may still be a team called Arse managed by a man called Arse but crikey they can score some goals. Peter Reid and Gordon Strachan's analysis of their goalscoring on MOTD2 on Sunday was also fantastic in every way. I think that show may become regular viewing.

I thought it was an utterly appalling display by us tonight, actually. We should be beating the likes of Norwich more than comfortably, and even if there were any dodgy refereeing decisions (there was a player offside, but not really interfering with play, I thought the goal was more or less OK), it still wasn't anywhere near good enough.

Very frustrating indeed.

Looks like you were right, Paul E, Rooney looks like he is headed to Newcastle according to the latest BBC news:

Crazy Rooney Chooses the Wrong Club!

Those arrogant Man Utd supporters must be very glum.

Oh shit, I forgot, that's me.......... :cry:

Hmm, it's a tricky one. Whilst he could probably break into the team easier at Newcastle, ManU has CL footie. Could go either way, unless he personally dislikes one or the other.

Mind you, I'm not sure what Newcastle are up to. Conceding goals seems to be a problem needing more immediate attention than scoring them...

I still think he'll end up with your lot, though. I just can't see why he would choose us over you, sadly. I'd love to see Ferguson's face if he did, though. :lol:

I don't think there's much hot prossy action in Newcastle, but I was always a bit innocent about that kind of thing! I suppose if he genuinely wants to get away from the area because of what happens, a move to Newcastle makes some sense, but I'm convinced he'll be wearing red by the end of the transfer window. I just love being proved wrong, though....

Tis a bit isn't it? Rooney will be a Man Utd player by this time next week. I certainly wouldn't choose Newcastle at the moment.

Still, Rooney and Smith up front should make the 18yard box on corners look like a Friday night out in Romford. :)
