monkey 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2005 I go with Man U as I think Chelsea will be concentrating on bigger cpmpetitions (league and Champions league). Cant wait until the Champions league kicks off again soon as there seems to be some great potential matches. Roll on Ipswich into the Premier league, Coventry on Saturday and we need to win.

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 WHAT AN IDEA FOR A THREAD! Come on Derby County! We can't let Leicester stay in the Premiership without us for too long. Seriously though, Derby are gonna struggle this year, the money just isn't there, and last season's final squad just didn't have it. I miss Malcolm Christie... I MISS THE OTHER DERBY FAN!!

Mystery Eskimo 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 Looks like Reid's off to Spurs for £4.5 million. Not a bad price. Hopefully Megson will get a decent chunk to bring in players (no Baggies rejects please). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We had talk of football games, some kind of internet-turn-real-life-flirting of two people (well, those who read this thread would remember it), actual football, wrestling comparisons.

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 as stated earlier, with out two solid strikers, Chelsea is just going to be a middle team. If anything Newcastle could be a strong team in the premiership As I have a lonely long night ahead of me, I hope people don't mind me pulling amusing posts from the past up..

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 Did Frank Lampard even touch the ball last night? I rate Lampard highly, but he's not Beckham, Scholes, Gerrard class, so he wont be a regular. I'd even go as far as to put Joe Cole in the team before him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2005 I feel so sorry for Wimbledon, if they had managed to keep players like Connolly,Shipperly,McAnuff,Reo-Coker and Kelvin Davis at the club then they would have been in the top 10 instead of being Relegated in about 2-3 games.The bloke who's just bought the club is an idiot, why buy them now when he could have done it in the summer and had a good young team that would challenge for the Play Offs. Well if we'd been able to keep players like Stern John, Jermaine Jenas, David Prutton, Andy Johnson, Alan Rogers, Chris Bart-Williams, Riccardo Scimeca, Ben Olsen etc etc then we'd be in the Premier League. I'm sure Franchise could say the same for the sheep. Talking of which i'm off to Gay Pride Park to watch the lads send the sheepshaggers down into oblivion or however it's spelt. YOU REDS!
