It's interesting to see, now, where Manchester United play their games after an away fixture in the CL. Doesn't David Gill have a dual job role with them and the FA now? Indeed, take tomorrow as a case in fact where, after a gruelling England international, they have a plum home game against Stoke 'lay-down-and-die-in-Salford' City.
Moreover, should Chelsea draw a Premiership team either at home or away in the 3rd round of the FA Cup this season, I'll eat my socks.

From reading that, you'll fit right in ;-)
