    Champions League Draw: Last 16

    PSG - Chelsea. As a neutral, hand me the gun. Presumably, everyone will react ridiculously to a bloke failing to get on the Metro again, and we'll all drown in a sea of sanctimoniousness. Presumably, despite everyone acknowledging that only Barca, Bayern and PSG are better than the English...

    The most open Premier league season ever

    I don't think I'll ever understand the logic that because the usual suspects aren't running away with it, the quality of football is worse. The fact there's increasing strength and class through the middle of the table suggests it's higher. If one team creaming everyone made the best football...

    Mahrez: "I don't think we can win the league"

    Well he's completely consistent with his manager, which is a reassuring sign. And Leicester clearly won't win the league. Top 6/8 finish beckons.

    Aston Villa v Arsenal

    Imagine what Arsenal could do with a proper striker, I mean Giroud only has 17 goals so far after all... Haha yeah, at least his decision has been vindicated. Still shouldn't have gone about it how he did mind.

    How many grounds?

    ^ The problem is judging the Nou Camp or San Siro by our standards. They're both incredibly drab stadiums, with poor facilities, that need big overhauls (well, Milan look like pensioning off their european elite status for something small, but that's beside the point) despite being visually...

    How many grounds?

    I make it 30 of the 92. Having spent a decade in the Conference, you can probably double that with places I've visited with U's that never made it to the league. It's bad, but it's not Southport, Stafford Rangers, Histon, Canvey Island or....well, I could go on. At least Braintree is only an...

    Wolfsburg v Man Utd

    I'd be amazed if BATE Borisov ever got an opportunity again like they did this. Shame they couldn't nick a goal.

    Wolfsburg v Man Utd

    The icing on this increasingly bitter cake will come when we lose the 4th CL spot, and both United and Liverpool miss out. In other news, bald men seen in disagreement over comb ownership...

    Man City v Monchengladbach

    Maybe the fact you're so involved in this discussion goes a long way to explaining how former FL Macc Town managed to only just scrape 4 figures for a top 10 clash this evening? Anyway, 40k+ for a dead rubber tie, at what, 45 quid a pop? That's not really much of a stick to beat someone with.

    The 4-2-3-1 is killing football

    Champion's League. Even if you stretch it to 4 top contenders and include PSG, then it's 3 out 4. Or 2 out of 3.

    FA Cup Second Round

    We have three keepers on our books. Two are not good enough, and although it seems Norris is doing superbly at Braintre, I'm not sure he'd be ready to go in, even if we could recall him. I imagine Derry is desperate to get that sorted next month.

    FA Cup Second Round

    Three dreadful goals to concede, jesus. We need a first choice keeper, having two crap ones is obviously not working.

    30 Seconds. I hate being right.

    The 4-2-3-1 is killing football

    I really don't have the time to dissect the various contradictory notions you've floated, so I will leave you with a question. If the CL is becoming a closed shop of a few clubs from outside England, what do two of the three contenders play with as their formation?

    The 4-2-3-1 is killing football

    Are you on a personal mission to get the high score for 'sheer volume of fallacious statements' on one thread?

    FA Cup Second Round

    We're 1-0, Berry quickest to the rebound after Donny saved the penalty. Penalty was a pen and it sounds like the least we deserve by all accounts. Imagine Donny will expose us in the second half. Ho hum.

    The 4-2-3-1 is killing football

    This thread makes me genuinely despair. Such ignorance combined with such vociferous certainty. It's these people that scream at a manager to make an obvious change and get people sacked.

    The 4-2-3-1 is killing football

    I see nothing wrong with it when executed correctly, it can be the fluid attack of City or Dortmund and co, the more pragmatic Man U approach, or something between the two, like Spurs perhaps. . Anyway, to an extent I think the prevelence of it is also down to what seems like a trend...

    Yeovil sack Paul Sturrock

    If you're jealous of what Crawley offer as an experience, Yeovil must be awful and you are truly in trouble.
