Cable Forum - [Merged] Football talk

Actually Roy Keane was all set to sign for Kenny Dagleish at Blackburn Rovers when united stepped in at the last minute, so he was on his way out anyway, Keane had actually shaken hands with Dagleish on a contract but had not signed, Ferguson stepped in on the deal over a weekend apparantly and changed Keane's mind, of course Dagleish was furious.

Yes I know that, SBC couldn't keep his big gob shut [quite glad he didn't, he provided some serious comedy lines over the years and is sorely missed]. Still believe he may have been tapped though just like reid seemed to be with Spurs.

What happened with Barsa at the end of the game? Anyone know I'm sure I saw Ron have a little trouble with one of the stewards?

United are crap? Yeeaahhhhh...riiiight. How many Premiership titles have Forest won? How many FA Cups have they won.

And another thing - we were totally outclassed last night.

I have to admit that I turned over from ITV2 to the Chelsea game after they announced the first goal and then watched all of that match. I didn't give United much of a chance after the first match. Cracking entertainment at Stamford Bridge.

Shafting Forest?? You got a record transfer fee for him. Hardly what I'd call a shafting.

None, but they have won the European Cup twice in sucession in 1979 & 1980. :angel:

Yes we're so crap we're battling relegation. Oh, sorry, my mistake, that's Forest isn't it? ;)

Re: [Merged] Football talk

getting back on topic about football Man U were rubbish last night and the poorer side over the 2 legs..

AC weren't brilliant and didn't look like potential Euro champs either but they playeed better than us in both games and got the result

we have too many 30 plus players.. in defence you can get away with being older but in midfield it is too old

Keane and Scholes and Giggs can still produce on their day but they can't do it week in week out like they used to in 99.. there will be 5-10 games a season where they are as good as ever and several other games where thwy will just go missing..

Rooney, Ruud and Ronaldo also didn't perform last night and for 90 mins Cafu was allowed to run up and down the wing with no one ever tracking him..

look at our bench.. Bellion, Phil Neville and Fortune aren't good enough to be in a European Cup squad.. can you imagine Real Madrid or Juventus bring on a player like them.. not only are they in our squad but they start too many games and have been here for ages.. they should be shipped out and replaced with decent squad players who can come into the first team and play as well as the regulars..
