The Manchester United thread 2006/2007 - featuring BBB leaving early

[BBB]

England players have been back for nearly a week, why the feck haven't we signed Carrick yet

[Mika]

I'm sorry, that was one step too far

[Barry Cartman]

Petit

[Nick OGS20]

He'll do well for you. He's got the potential to make it at Premiership level - he's very quick, very strong and a decent finisher. He broke a leg season before last just when him and Rossi were on absolute fire for the reserves, and that knocked him back down the pecking order a bit and ended his chances of really making it with us, but he's definitely got the ability to cut it in the Championship.

[Mika]

*foreseeable too

[BBB]

I'll ask my "contact" tomorrow, really shouldnt be a problem for 2 tickets

[Nick OGS20]

In your supposed financial position, you can't.

The prospect of that brings a ':/', why buy someone who's just turned thirty?

Most people here love Cole but I'm fairly 'meh'.

But nothing he could have done would have made me get over Upton Park. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

What did he do at Upton Park? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Nothing. That horrible horrible day in May 1995 when all we needed was one goal against West Ham, he did absolutely nothing.

And before you all have a go, yes I know he wasn't the only player to miss chances that day but he wasted more than others. And my broken 12 year old still hasn't mended.

Which Argie top Eddie? home or away? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Home. With the World Cup Flash on teh arm. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Stands out much better than the away one. \o/

[BBB]

oh ffs, I'm totally unsure what to do.

Celtic might be hard to get tickets for, would deffo go.

Benfica, too soon, no way I can afford it, maybe.

Copenhagen, reading on RI that every man and his dog will try and get tickets, all the Scandanavian reds, then you have £5 a pint beer etc etc.

I'm just going to save up for the knockout stages, add to that I only have 9 holidays to use before March IIRC

Might watch Family Guy haven't seen any for ages

[No Longer Bling]

he could care about nothing but touching small boys as long he sticks a decent cross in the box

The ballot for the Liverpool game is today, right?

leave it alone otherwise silvestre's will be edited too

in fact i could do with a laugh i wonder what his says about him

[Nick OGS20]

Good timing Taz, I was just updating them - erm, they're pretty much identical, I have Rooney on 2 and I haven't got an assist for JOS (which was that), but I've not seen a replay of the third goal to know who to give that to (Rooney I think?).

[Goater666]

My mate at work (who's a red) is going mad that you lot have only been given 3000 tickets for Celtic away.

Whats going on there then? did you lot give them 7000?

[Mika]

Nah that was Evra tbf.

[vanester]

Ok, it's a long shot at this moment. Btw do league fixtures get moved a lot? I need to know because it'd be best to book plane tickets in advance

I’m still neutral, I haven’t seen a dip in the club as yet, so I am still not a hater. But SSN saying they have been a success because we won the Carling Cup is utter ****. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

you haven't seen a dip? what about the summer transfer activity?

oh yeah, we 'splashed out' on Carrick, my bad </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

How much has Fergie bidded on Hargreaves? Torres? We'll see what happens in January, if nobody arrives then

He's back at Christmas if I remember correctly. But I think Newcastle have the option to extend it if they want.

ffs don't say that i backed your lot to win in my treble

[ACou2000]

I thought Scholes faded more than Ronnie :/

certainly wasnt quite as crisp in possession as he was first half. lost it/bit dodgy with the ball near our area on a couple of occasions too.

[BBB]

£32 for Newcastle mate, thus far I've done/doing

Wigan

Blackburn

West Ham

Villa

[Mika]

We clearly won't score.

i think oshea is a really popular member of the squad. loads of players that leave always seem to say that theyre still in contact with him (sheasy this, sheasy that) so ive decided hes brought on to tell the lads a few jokes and keep spirits high.

wp jos, unsung hero. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

If that's what he's in for, maybe we should go the whole hog and hire the real Peter Kay?

Sorry mate, they don't allow you to sit on the new "sponsored by AUDI" seats. They are real leather and have heating.When I was on the tour in November (portsmouth home) we weren't allowed. Or they must have changed the policy.

Saha, Smith, Rooney, Ronaldo, Giggs, Solskjaer all to pick up season-ending injuries in the game then?

Pickles is just exploiting an unfair system. You should be sending another mail to your mate Gill.

[Young Jimlad]

Sheff Utd ticket just arrived

Downside is that it'll probably be my final game of the season given the likely mass demand for West Ham tickets, pretty much zero chance of a FA Cup Semi or Final ticket (if we get there), and a similar scenario as far as Europe goes as well .

well it's true though i don't know who assited as i usually was too distracted by the awsome goals and scoreline

Did Heinze get 1 or 2? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

None.

Carrick, Smudge, Rooney, Ronnie, Ronnie, Carrick and Evra. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It was Heinze who passed to Carrick for his 2nd. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Gaz, Rio, Vida, Paddy, Silvestre, Park, Richardson, Saha? That's all of them i think.

Yes but ultimately the only teams to win the CL and the league was Barca and Porto.

However Porto had the title assured with around 5-6 games before the end so that argument drops.

Real Madrid never did it. They either won the league or the CL but not both in the same year. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Hope we still get a striker

[Weststandred]

I want to go in tier2 because the atmosphere sounds great for the big games. But my Dad wants tier1 upper as there aren't many stairs and we won't be standing as much (bad leg).

Being put in the NW Quad would be a DISASTER.
