To reply to your earlier posts I would say all chelsea fans would acknowledge that Romans money has been influential in getting them where they are now. But there are also other factors which no one else seems to care about. It is not just down to Romans billions. Similarly what Utd spend and achieve now is not solely down to their home grown talent or their succesful history, but down to the money that is being thrown at football, either from a n owner, a bank or a broadcasting company. |

Re: Football : Season 2007/2008
Not fair at all, some of the decisions they have made this year have been baffling.
Allowing one team to cancel a game due a players death but making the team who actually witnessed it play?? They should have cancelled the whole next set of fixtures as a mark of respect rather than picking and choosing. Still if that and the recent dodgy refereeing decisions keeps the unwashed half of Glasgow from moaning about a 'pyure conspiracy by they durty masonic referees to keep the Sellick doon by the way' for 5 minutes its a small price to pay. |

A few months ago all the Ex Villa players went to Villa Park for a get together, when Doug Ellis was there they all refused to attend, when Randy Learner took over he invited them all to the ground for the get together, he presented them with a medal, paid them £1,000 and put them up in a hotel for the night.

I didn't think the second challenge was a booking anyway, the player running with the ball had actually lost control and the ball had gone out of play when he went down, Scholes barely touched him as well. It would have been very harsh to be sent off for those two fouls which were the only two he commited all game.

Re: Football : Season 2007/2008
This is Andy Gray's team of the year. What do you think?
-------------------James------------------ -Johnson-----Ferdinand----Laursen---Lescott- ------Fabregas---Flamini---Gerrard------ -Ronaldo---------------------------Young- ----------------Torres------------------ I thought Santa Cruz deserves a place in the team, he's been fantastic for Blackburn and was very good value for money. But what about Laursen????? strange decision that one with all the other good quality centre backs in the league, i know i'm a bit bias but surely Vidic has had a better season? Or put Lescott at centre back and put in a different left back? There hasn't been many good right backs this season but surely theres a better one that Glen Johnson? I also don't think Gerard deserves a place in the team, he played well for about 1/4 of the season and thats it imo. Flamini wouldn't be my first choice either. |

Re: Football : Season 2007/2008
Apparently the Lampard rumours are rubbish. Which makes sense considering that he has just lost his mother and is between the of the biggest games of his life. I'm sure contract negotiations and transfers aren't his foremost thoughts at the moment.
