If you don't beat TNS by ten over the two legs, you ought to be ashamed. Unless, that is, you win so comfortably in the first leg that you just have a stroll about the pitch in the second leg. :)

Something to be upbeat about for us: Emre arrives in Newcastle for medical.

Bastarding Real Madrid. They screwed us with Owen and now they're stalling on Figo.

All that money they've spent. But who's got *the* European Cup, eh?

EH?

Aye. We nearly lost Morientes at the beginning of the year, too. RB is switching his attention Govou now I think. May be just a ploy though.

ToonI think Emre's going to be good for you. Mind you I thought you made some decent acquisitions last year, y'know...:(

Well, in the end Kluivert was worth the chance. He scored a goal every other game so wasn't a complete waste and if he'd been who he was ten years ago then we had a replacement for Shearer.

Fewer distractions is the key to a better performance this year, I hope.

Man City boss Stuart Pearce is chasing Feyenoord's Dutch winger Romeo Castelen but will need to sell Shaun Wright-Phillips first. The 22-year-old, who only joined from Den Haag last summer, has impressed and is now rated at £4m, but City could face competition from Monaco for his signature.
city, just don't, he needs more time to develop and i think he will flop now... (although, feyenoord will get even weaker without him!)

:lol:

After a quick peruse of the Beeb, it looks like José M has got a weed on with Dein's position at the FA. There's something in what he says but it just hightening my expectation for the forthcoming season. José is excellent value for some choice 'reflections' on the state of the game :D

Looking forward to the match tomorrow against TNS.
On ITV2 so hope ITV keep to that channel for the duration of the season CL onslaught.
Last season they stuck us on there nearly everytime until they realised we were in with a chance.
Bloody glory boys at ITV :roll:

C'mon the reds :D

oh i could crush a grape :lol:

Looks like Mr. Gerrard is quite aware of how to bring his fan popularity rating back to "dribble" again: bang 'em in.

Well, TNS are closer at half-time than Liverpool were in Istanbul...

I for one would like to commend Liverpool on tonight's match. It was very professional to show TNS enough respect to be as completely, eye-wateringly boring against them as they were against Chelsea, Juventus and Milan...

It's come to something when the champions of Europe can't force a single save out of the goalkeeper of Total Network Solutions for the entire second half of a competitive game...

If I was a Liverpool fan, I would probably be funnier.
