Ronaldo dived 2 or 3 times all night. Its just a case of the media going overboard on the scapegoat for England being sh!te.

Ronaldo dives like a lot of other people dive and as much as we would prefer he stops doing it we dont need to go on about it or say we are embarrassed, we just need to get behind the lad like we did Becks in 98.

Isn't that effectively saying that we shouldn't blame the debt on the people that put us in debt? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

That has confused me for the time being, so I'll reply tomorrow.

It just sounded a bit like the judges who used to blame the girl wearing the short skirt for then getting raped.

Charlton have reportedly made a bid for Rennes goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson.

The 24-year-old's assured displays for Sweden at the World Cup did not go unnoticed, with several clubs across Europe quick to express an interest.

He has already been linked with both Manchester City and Portsmouth, while a clutch of Spanish clubs are believed to be tracking his progress.

However, Charlton have emerged as the favourites to capture his signature, with new boss Iain Dowie looking to stamp his mark on the team.

Thomas Myhre spent the bulk of last season as The Addicks' number one following Dean Kiely's move to Portsmouth, but it is a position that Dowie is keen to shore up.

Rennes are bound to fight hard to keep their man but, with reports in France suggesting that Charlton have tabled a £1.4 million offer, they may decide to cash in.

</div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I doubt you can think of any excuses at all for not bidding for him at that price.

Can anyone confirm or deny this? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yeah we've discussed it, there are photos that suggest the rumours are accurate.

It looks rubbish/It's a PR stunt anyway was the consensus IIRC.

really cant see us signing anyone else this transfer window.

Unless some shock foobr he certainly wont be signing esque transfer for monseiur evra.

Hargreaves he isnt fit yet, i dont see the point in signing a player who has just come back from a broken leg albeit not as bad as smudges. Not sure tbf.

also ribery wont sign for us, that has wenger written all over that, or wouldnt be surprised to see him at madrid, capello plays with wingers?

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Bayern Munich president Franz Beckenbauer claims Michael Ballack made a mistake in joining Chelsea and should have moved to Manchester United.

Ballack's £130,000 per week deal is thought to make him the world's highest paid player, but the 30-year-old has failed to shine at Stamford Bridge.

"I can't see a place for him at Chelsea. He'd have been better off at United," said Beckenbauer.

"The game passes him by. Frank Lampard is stronger and takes his position."

Ballack joined Chelsea after leading Germany to the World Cup semi-finals on home soil.

Bayern were unable to compete with Chelsea and prevent the German captain from leaving when his contract expired.

The introduction of Ballack and Andriy Shevchenko has been blamed for unbalancing Chelsea's system in the wake of the Premiership champions' inconsistent form.

Likewise, Ballack has had to slot into Chelsea's midfield instead of being their hub, as he is in the German national team.

</div></BLOCKQUOTE>

isnt this the same beckenbauer that said last season we were finished and why would anyone want to join us??

your 4 home games left should be wins. that leaves: Portsmouth, Everton, Chelsea and Man city to play away. I'm sure fergie will get your team up for the game at Man city since it's them and it's right at the end of the season.

Basically you can afford to lose to Portsmouth and Everton and Chelsea and still win the league because chelsea are hardly going to win the rest of their games. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yes, because iirc we have a 100% PERFECT record of ensuring home wins against teams like Blackburn. Like last ye... oh.

Do I even have to mention the Sunderland game as well?

actually does happen icon_biggrin.gif

if i didn't have my bizarre fear of going on boats, it'd be a fantastic way to get there. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It'd be fb! a pre match booze up as you go down the canal. Moor up in the quays. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

exactly what happens. they run them from the town centre.

not sure about the train price, don't think it's any more expensive than the tram. it's not the cost really, it's the way there are only three trains before and after the game.

Short term suggests a loan I think? But a few on the Leeda thread are starting to suspect we've ****ed up the short-term loan rules and have had too many this season.

He will make his debut tonight.

Yep. Like I said I can't remember whether it was actually used in the season because we weren't on tele that much and I was far too young to go to away trips. Had the badge in the middle, which I'm generally against, but other than that was awesome. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It was a one off for that Cup Final
