Oh dear - Atléti seem to have gone somewhat off course :roll: :(

And as for Madrid winning yesterday - pish. :evil:

Hmm, away at Bolton. Not quite the draw I'd have liked.

Still, hopefully having scored 6 goals in the cup we can now score a few more in the league (start with ManU this weekend) :)

There are whispers of Wenger going to Real in the summer. His current deal runs out after this season and he is yet to sign a new one . . .

ROONEY! ROONEY!

I remember when Man Utd used to be good. we always used to look at the fixtures for the end of the season with trepidation and then see Spurs as the last match.

"Oh, well, that's all right then!" :twisted: :twisted:

Just kidding :wink:

I used to like ManU as a consistent final fixture. Didn't bother me since we'd generally given up by christmas anyway... :lol:

Well, our unbeaten run comes to an end with a penalty (what a surprise, erm, no actually not really) against ManU.

It had to happen eventually. I mean, who goes the whole season unbeaten?

Oh shit, yeah, Preston did that :wink:

Table is shaping up a bit different than expected IMHO...

Never a penalty, that.

At least we did the business without Gerrard. That Garcia-Cisse-Baros attack is looking pretty tasty - particularly with Alonso pulling the midfield strings. Bad day at the office against Man Utd, but that's a good boost for the Champ League on Tuesday. :D

Newcastle looking pretty decent, Paul. :)

Yeah, 100% under Souness so far, it's hard not to be happy with that. :)

I wish he'd hurry up and decide what his best line-up is, though. I think we'll be more effective then.

Nice come back by the Forest boys, and a lovely winning goal in the last minute for Sir Brian.

Fitting that we should beat West Ham at home for the first time in nigh on 30 years too....

I think he's now earned himself the honeymoon period he seemed very unlikely to get. The rate at which our fans can turn though... he needs to get through the next two cup matches at least.

The element of surprise? :D
