It looks like Colonel Gaddafi isn’t the only dictator of a hated regime who’s been murdered in his own back yard in front of the world’s cameras during the last week. Big Grin

Strangely enough the match I was watching (live, at much the same time) had 8 goals in it. All for the home side, the wonderful Rookettes, who absolutely battered the hapless MK Dons.

Undeniably. My pain was eased somewhat by the news from Loftus Road. I do hope the R's management grow a pair and cite Mr Terry for his racial slur. It's unlikely that Anton was the only Ferdinand to cop a faceful of vitriol on Sunday. United would have fared better with Franz Ferdinand and Lee Evans at CB ...

That's been coming for a few weeks I'm afraid Sad

Very entertaining for the neutral, but the reality is that the defeat will probably be painful enough to spur United on for another decade...

Honestly? I think the guard is well and truly changing, just as it did when Roman marched on Stamford Bridge. I can warble on about 600 million spent but the truth is its been spent wisely, on infrastructure, youth development and on a very strong, incredibly deep squad.

Sorry to say I think we'll see Citeh not only making a din in the Manchester neighborhood but like as not on holiday in Europe too before long, unless the Champions League is inextricably linked to the quicksanded Euro. C'est la vie; I'm off down the Dripping pan for our AGM.

Curiously Lewes CFC voted in a new board on the same day community-owned FC United of Manchester won planning permission for their new ground at Moston. Them, us and Barcelona then ...

More power to the FCU elbow.

A fantastic story in the making, just like AFCW.

RE: 1- 6 eh?
I've lived under the shadow of United for too long to be yet convinced that the old adage "never bet against United" has passed its sell-by date.

It seems like the Uefa financial rules, when they finally become fully effective in about 2135 or something, will curtail the largest excesses of Citeh and Chelski, but they will still be able to splash fairly large amounts of sugar daddy cash. So yes, we are in a new era for sure. Unless the Premier League goes the way of the Euro.

The question is whether Chelsea and City have the culture in place to consistently turn their obvious quality into results. We'll see what sort of backbone they have come February or so.
