It's okay, guys. You may have no defenders, but we have only Beattie up front - Vaughan, Anichebe and AJ all struggling to be fit. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Does Duncan Ferguson still play for your lot? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

We thought about bringing him out of retirement for one game but he wanted a year's wages in backpay. icon_frown.gif

no penalties at OT iirc </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Here, I'm a bit confused.

Penalty because JOS clattered somebody ?

Or penalty because Scholesy "caught the ball" ?

Or neither ? Or both ?

So many moans today. icon_biggrin.gif I'll have to watch the damn game agin. icon_frown.gif

yeah the club. think it's called the railway anyway? only been there a few times. but will be coming up for most home games next season with a bit of luck, so I'll definitely come and meet you lot. the coach always gets there about 4 hours before k/o, so plenty of time for a drink.

I think my coach is normally first in every time. icon_smile.gif

Always stop in the Railway club for one/two, and then move to the Traff. Only then do the locals turn up and it's time to move on to the wall.

It's not too far to walk. Even I can manage that far. icon_wink.gif

Moderate that a tad, young sir. Drunk is a bit strong, I think you'll find. icon_frown.gif

Just looking at these stats

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> Passers Team Passes Accuracy

Fabregas Arsenal 2416 82%

Scholes Man Utd 1881 91%

Alonso Liverpool 1852 81%

Gilberto Arsenal 1778 82%

Lampard Chelsea 1712 79%

</pre>

Thats pretty bloody amazing from Scholes, even if Cesc has made more passes.

I'm right in assuming Scholes tries more ambitious passes though no?

yes and no. he plays an awful lot quick one-touch passes as well as the more adventurous stuff. Carrick probably plays more ambitious passes i reckon, just he maybe completes half of them and can sometimes try passes that aren't on, whereas Scholesy rarely wastes a long pass.

It's 30 June. Wigan, Man U, Man C, Bolton this year.

Got my tickets a few weeks back icon_cool.gif

is it likely to sell out? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Doubt it. According to the Ticketmaster site, when i bought the tickets, only the first tier is open. Even then, when i've watched it on TV, it only looks half full.

Can probably pay on the day i would think
