We have not won away from home this season yet, I am getting used to the let downs :(

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

Na Im here graceful in defeat :D

Again na some of us die hard long term fans are here no matter what :D

Not afraid to say a **** poor performance from us today and thats it end of.

Unlike some who will blame the lack or performance due to the absence of Henry, Campbell, Cole, Van Persie and Hleb.

Admittedly there were a few good saves from Kirkland but as an Arsenal fan another **** poor performance from us and we have not won away since May.

Grrrrr title is in the bag for Chelski again but at least we have consolation that they again have pretty much bought it not won it.

:D

Agreed - and I think it's amazing at the number of Chelsea supporters in denial who still won't admit they bought the title - but isn't it funny that their success seemed to coincide with Abramovich buying the club....

Funny man u fans still going on about chelsea buying the title yet 2 years ago man u were in a spending league far apart from the rest of the league and in that position themselves.

One good thing about chelsea winning the title, man u **** dont win it :D

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

Being in a spending league apart from the rest and buying success are two VERY different things! Was there ever a season where United previously had very little success and bought a handful of very expensive players and won the title the very next year?

Clue: No.

Yep! However buying the title as opposed to winning it kind of takes the shine off the achievement, don't you think? :)

That's the mancs for ya!

Any club would buy the best players possible if they had a blank cheque,
getting them players to gel and the right manager to do it is the tricky bit.

The mancs need to realize that time is up,the good players have gone and Ferguson's luck has ran out.
How much did he buy Veron and Ferdinand for?

Well done Chelsea, i hope they kick ass until we (Liverpool) are ready to challenge them.

Cheeky git! :(

Mind you,we wont be able to play for laughing if Everton get relegated. :)

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

Being a Scouseland fan, you have good experience with that sort of thing, haven't you - remember Dagleish leaving? Coinciding with the once-powerful Liverpool becoming a bunch of also-rans and staying that way for the best part of the 90s.

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

DALGLISH leaving wasn't our downfall,Souness taking over was!

Shankly,Paisley,Fagan and Dalglish all left strong teams,
will Ferguson do that?
He should have left years ago,now he'll get the American boot if they don't win anything this year.

Mancs live in their own little world,they need to wake up.
