Why not? In the last 6 games Liverpool have only beaten Utd once. Compared to 4 wins for Utd and one draw.

You would not have prefered Colchester then, I know I would rather be playing them than Bolton.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Nah not really, I'd prefer to play teams that are known rather then teams who are not so well known and teams who have players playing the biggest game of their lives.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

well we are starting to show a big of form now and we beat them the other day with a patched up midfield.. with this being the only trophy we can win apart from the league cup and liverpool still in Europe we stand a chance of beating them.. only prob is it's at their place and we seem too caution away from home now

still looking on the bright side Arsenal are out and won't be winning anything this year :D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Not being a utd or liverpool fan, I think utd will win this one. Liverpool looked under pressure from the balls delivered in from wide in the second half, not dealing well with them at all well. I can see the same pressure being applied by Utd with better strikers to benefit from it.

I don't want to sit on the fence so I would go for a draw, if it was the old days it may well have gone for umpteen replay's.

A daft night for football by all accounts...........

Liverpool draw at home to Birmingham 1 - 1...
Newcastle beaten by Man City 3 - 0....
Chelsea only gain a point at Villa 1 - 1......
Arsenal beaten by the 'ammers at home 2 - 3.........
and Utd score 3 away from home at Blackburn and lose 4 - 3.......

Weird

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Us Arsenal fans have nothing to worry about though as we lost due to 3 defences erros, two by Big Sol who apparently left the ground after being subbed at Half Time.

What was United excuse then, I can hear the tumble weed from here.

Plus point was Chelski onl buying another point.

:D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

No excuses at all, Blackburn are just 'one of those teams'.

Still, roll on the next round of the FA Cup and the League Cup final.

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

:D

Yeh when they lose both and don't finish higher than 4th.

Roll on Fergies replacement and Europe.

:D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

lol ! Nicely put :D

And as for.........

Have nothing to worry about because it was defensive errors ?

How do all teams concede then ? :erm:

arsenal's fall from grace amuses me no end :D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I see that extreme bitterness is a common trait amongst CF Arsenal fans... :angel:

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

I think on recent results, you should be concentrating on your own teams short comings :D

In the space of a week you have gone out of 2 cup competitions, and lost at home to a local rival, when you were probably still laughing at spurs' result. It must be terrible when you think you have a "home banker" only to end up in the same position as before, but with a game less to catch up with Spurs :D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
 

Arsenal 2
West Ham 3:D :D

Re: [Merged] The Football Thread 2005/2006 Season
