don't get it by subscription myself, but there was a thread on the sanctuary the day before the game the new issue came out at (chelsea i think) where people with subscriptions were saying they'd been pleasantly surprised to recieve their copies early.

and yeah, the forum was always fairly sh*t, it's utterly abysmal now

Suit yourself icon_razz.gif

I'm guessing it's Seaman with 7, as i know his first cap was under Robson, and i'm assuming he played for all the subsequent managers up to Sven barring the Peter Taylor game. Gary Neville will be 6 if he didn't play under sergeant Wilko.

Everyone's favourite radio "personality"

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> I don't think it'll happen but if Manchester United screw up against Benfica on Wednesday night, there'll only be one person to blame - Sir Alex Ferguson. I don't know if it was arrogance or mere misjudgement but the manager, who's been celebrating 20 successful years at Old Trafford, made an awful mistake in Copenhagen. Instead of fielding a full strength side there, taking all three points and then coasting through the final games of the Champions League group, Fergie rested too many players and paid the price of defeat. He couldn't have anticipated that his team, now restored to proper proportions, could be superior to Celtic in the following match and still lose at Parkhead but it means United mustn't lose to the Portuguese or they'll go out at the group stage for the 2nd successive season: unthinkable, I know, so maybe we shouldn't think about it.'

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> 'Former Manchester United and Chelsea midfielder Juan Sebastian Veron faces two years in prison after being accused of illegally obtaining an Italian passport.

An Italian court recommended on Saturday morning that the ex-Argentine international - who now plays for Estudiantes in his homeland - serve the sentence if he is found guilty of the offence.

Three other men, including Lazio president Sergio Cragnotti, are also being prosecuted for irregularities regarding Veron's passport.

Veron, 31, moved to Italy with Sampdoria in 1996 and also played for Parma and Lazio in the latter's title-winning season in 2000, before taking the Premiership title with Man United in 2003 and then moving on to Chelsea.

After a loan spell in Serie A with Internatzionale (pictured) that yielded another title last season, he returned home during the summer.' </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
