Blackburn Rovers Come Roving For Goals at Old Trafford

By: Nick | Comments No Comments

Blackburn and Chelsea 03 have a great deal in common. Both were fairly insignificant clubs before they were purchased by very wealthy men with penchants for steel, and buying success. The difference now in owners is that one is dead, while Roman Abramovich is not.
Blackburn did not spend quite the incredulous amounts that Chelsea [...]

Sir Alex Predicts a Riot Photo Finish. Our Faint Hearts Might Not Take That too Well…

By: Nick | Comments 1 Comment

If it comes down to goal difference and we prevail — it means we’ll have suffered the mother of all scares. No thanks.
Yet despite the uncomfortable feeling of that scenario, it’s a real possibility with Chelsea 03’s stubborn insistence on not losing these days, and apparently would sit quite well with Sir Alex Ferguson.
I [...]

When Andorran’s Attack! — Fierce Rooney Treatment Draws Criticism

By: Nick | Comments 1 Comment

I honestly debated spending the 24.95 for the pay per view to watch England yesterday – and you can bet your arse that I’m glad I came to my senses and changed my mind. From what I’ve read, seen and heard the action was dire at best.
One thing I’d have liked to have seen [...]

Bon Jovi Sings About the Relationship Between Arsenal and Manchester United

By: Nick | Comments No Comments

My sister really hates Arsenal. I myself don’t like them too much, but respect that they’ve been successful without the financial backing of a billionaire Russian oligarch.

Three Might Be the Magic Number — But One Will Do Just Fine…

By: Nick | Comments 1 Comment

Lest we forget, Chelsea 03 have a chance at four titles this season – not too bad considering they’ve allegedly been in a crisis for months. Yet United are still alive on three fronts – but let’s be honest, winning the Premiership will be plenty.
Let’s not get greedy. Before we’d kicked a ball in [...]

Straight From the No Sh!t Sherlock Files — Ronaldo Attracts Madrid

By: Nick | Comments No Comments

So it really wasn’t long before Ronaldo’s “I’m very happy where I am” news was countered with yet another ‘insert club here desires the fancy footed player blah blah etc etc’ — a measly two days in fact.
Two glorious days. We should all be grateful for such small mercies – at least it wasn’t [...]

This one reminds me a little bit of Thierry Henry’s famous kick with his wrong foot. Just too cool.

Just How Great is Cristiano Ronaldo Growing Up to Be?

By: Nick | Comments No Comments

Let’s face facts — there is no other footballer more loved, loathed, enjoyed, hated, adored or despised in English football today than Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro Jr.
Lest we forget, he is only 22. He will become better than he is today. But just how good can he be?
This opinion by Gary Lineker provides [...]

A Classic Match from the Manchester United Vault

By: Nick | Comments No Comments

It’s been a while since we shipped five at Old Trafford. Look closely – there’s a United legend in a West Brom shirt, and their boss ‘Big Ron Atkinson’ would soon be ours. Ron’s opinion at the end is quite unbelievably out dated!
