It wouldn't be ****ing awesome. It'd be rubbish. I want nothing but pain for other English clubs in Europe, ESPECIALLY Liverpool (who btw are pretty much definately through now).

In fact the only reason I wouldn't mind Arsenal going through is I reckon they'd do Liverpool over 2 legs.

whs i hope all english clubs go out bar us. english teams are the strongest in the competition this year by quite a distance in my eyes. Real are having a shambles of a year, bayern arent the force they were, neither are milan, inter are never great in europe, lyon have gone off the boil a little in the french league, barca are in dis-array, valencia are hit and miss, dont rate porto.

english clubs clearly favourites. just hope its united.

I come over all Mika when it comes to playing the scouse. NEVER think we'll get anything from the game, especially at Anfield.

I'd much prefer Saha's scenario tbh... *prays*

Stadium chief defends actions

The head of security at Lens has rejected talk that his team were heavy-handed with Manchester United fans.

United's 1-0 win over Lille in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night was overshadowed by events off the pitch.

Trouble broke out at Lens' Stade Felix-Bollaert stadium with several fans appearing to be crushed due to over-crowding in the United end of the ground.

Tear gas was used by police to try and stop the supporters from climbing barriers as they tried to avoid being crushed.

Uefa has launched an investigation into the incidents, but the chief of security at Lens, Damien Vanoise, has defended his colleagues' actions.

"I think we responded to what happened," Vanoise told French radio station RTL.

"We didn't intervene by chance.

"There was not even a problem of communication. From the moment we saw the supporters who were trying to pull on the railings, what is the interpretation we can make from that - us, as security guards? For me, it is violent behaviour."

Vanoise also insisted that no one got crushed and that there were not too many people in the visitors' stand.

"I can tell you that nobody was crushed in the wire fencing," added Vanoise.

"There weren't too many people in that stand. The stand was not full."

</div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I honestly cant believe that in France our supporters are getting the blame.

It was a problem in France where they appear to have different rules to every other league in the world it seems in terms of both taking of free kicks and then lodging complaints about particular incidents.

The President of UEFA is French, is a massive knobjockey.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they decided that our goal was unlawful and that some kind of action should be taken to give Lille a "fair" result.

The same with the crowd disturbance. They'll give off loads of complete rubbish about how there has never been trouble before, how hooliganism is the English Disease and that it proves that we are the problem and should be booted out.

I would not be surprised in the slightest for the decision to be that we will be thrown out due to hooliganism and that Lille will take our place in the quater finals.

It shouldnt happen and i do think it's highly unlikely to happen. But it's the kind of thing i'd expect from UEFA now that that guy is in charge.

If UEFA do that, given that there is clearly no major grievance for our club or the referee to answer, then Platini's presidency will have lost any credibility it has through the mishandling of such a minor issue.

In other words: tell Lille to shut the **** up, stop being whiney little bitches and get over it.

If they replay this game, when the issue has been seen before a number of times domestically and at times on the continent then they are setting a dangerous precedent whereby any team can contest the legitimacy of a referee’s decision after a match and force a replay. For goodness sake its like they’ve not got another potentially 120+ minutes to turn the tie around.

I really hope that they see sense. There is no way they can alter the result or require it to be replayed and remain viable and without opening themselves up to massive legal challenges from our side, which given the amounts of money at stake they will pursue, regardless of the moral standpoint. If they want to spend time on something then they can focus on the questionable choice of Lens’ stadium, policing practices and fan safety in French stadiums, which on the evidence of Tuesday night, should be investigated.
