You should put up a sign along the lines of 'We can't win the league any more, but we can end any unbeaten runs you might be carrying'. Double thanks are due, I forgot that you also preserved our Invicibles season record until at least May 2007. Nice work Scottish flukey goal fella!

Now where's my compilation video of van Nistlerooy diving? Bit big to post, I'm afraid. Still, I'm sure there are some bitter Ipswich fans who still remember him getting them relegated the other year who could sort you out with footage.

I'm not saying that we are angels all the time, but hey, who else is? No one.
Quite, but some are more angelic than others. Man United were 14th out of 20 last season in the FPL, just ahead of Birmingham (top three were Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs, in fact). Indeed (since the best teams usually end up near the top) you can trace the fortunes up at OT by the decline in placing in that table.

While I dislike Mourinho intensely and hope (in vain, sadly) that he's feeling like a prat on the plane back down tonight, his teams do play pretty much in the right spirit. Perhaps if the 'Special One' had spent the week supervising training rather than mouthing off about Wenger in the media he might have actually won a game or two. Schadenfreude, I think it's called. How's the stutter going, Jose?

Was that he once turned out for Arsenal !
He turned out for the Luftwaffe, like Jens Lehmann's dad* :P

*Joke. If he's reading. Wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of Mad Jens, really, look what he did to Oliver Kahn's face.
