If it´s in decline all the more reason we should be romping it

Get to fuck.

Bump 4 months later because of a night where 2 teams had poor results in Europe - means fuck all, it's football.

Scottish league? Now that's in decline

Both city and united were playing teams who only have the UEFA Cup to play for. We've got other competitions that take priority

Better teams gets knocked out of cup competitions all the time. Milan who are supposed to be the best team in Italy scraped through against the 4th best team in England. How does that prove the Italian league is better than the prem? It's not been a great season for English clubs in Europe this season, but I'm pretty sure we'll still go through and I wouldn't be surprised to see Chelsea win 2-0 next week

What's happened to you ross?

You used to be a top poster. Now you seem to have made your business to make a cunt of yourself every time you post.

I appreciate that you must be out of your mind with anguish that you wont have a team to support this time tomorrow but that was a tad harsh.

Transition into the new order.

We've still got a great competitive league, it's just that the others are trying to take our mantle. Do you really think Real and Barca bought Tranny and Fabregas just for the football, or for the hoards that follow them?
