Wouldn't surprise me if we did. We have have played crap recently and don't even deserve qualification for Europe. Arsenal are going to knock us senseless in the FA Cup (I'll go for 3-1 to the Arse) and as for the premiership, we won't even be second.

A shambolic season, the blame for which can be place at the feet of Fergie for not getting some decent back-up defenders and for refusing to back down over Beckham.

What's happened, I go and make a brew and another City goal :eek:

Re: Football talk
 

Come on City!!! Good on ya!!! bout time they turned in a decent performance :D

Re: Football talk
 

Well the only thing I'm pleased about it a few of my dream team players have scored today :rolleyes:

Re: Football talk
 

Well done City, we need a few more losses like that to try and demonstrate to SAF that he is getting it wrong. He won't listen to anyone else so perhaps a some humiliating defeats are what is required.

Re: Football talk
 

O how the mighty tumble - Well done city...

Re: Football talk
 

:nono: it's just a stumble not a tumble :D

Re: Football talk
 

Wow - when was the last time they conceeded four goals, or lost by three clear goals ?

Re: Football talk
 

Russ, how comes your supporting utd - its not as if they're your local team ;)
I aint happy tho - I have Howard as my dream team keeper :(

Re: Football talk
 

Unless someone knows otherwise...

29/10/02 v. Haifa in the Ch. league lost 3 - 0 was last time M U lost by 3 clear goals.

05/11/01 v. Arsenal Worthington Cup 4th round Arsenal won 4 - 0 was the last time M U conceded 4 goals.

That was quite some record.

* Awaits correction by more knowledgeable person. :)

Excellent result, United appear to be shambolic and having no luck at all. Sir Purpleface is merely demonstrating what we've always thought, that he's a short-tempered bully who's as out of place in the modern game as a Tyrannosaurus at Kennedy Space Center. Any other team in the world would treat Beckham with the respect one of the greatest players in the world deserves - Alex kicks a boot at him and flogs him to Madrid. Great man management.

Being outwitted by Keegan tactically really does show how poor they are right now. Hope it lasts to the semi final.

They were for the 4 years I lived there.

Re: Football talk
 

Well things are looking a bit better, Spurs beat Newcastle and Liverpool drawing atm so the teams on my "hate em with a passion" list aren't doing well either :D

Yay yay yay Southampton have just scored :dmonk:

Re: Football talk
 

This just gets better, the Scousers have just been given a really dubious penalty but the goalie has saved it :tu: Owen has missed 10 penaltys for Liverpool now :eek: think they should look to someone else taking them :erm:

Re: Football talk
 

Owen confidence is really low at the moment.... I'd hoped he wouldn't take the penalty.
