Cantona to Man United??
the Guardian has some odd rumour today about how Eric Cantona is looking to replace Fergie as manager of Man United
While I hated him as a player, he's one strange mutha fucka, and I really hope this is true. This would bring the lulz for years to come.

Manchester United Champions of Europe
I'll echo everyone around the footie blogosphere who say that Manchester United has been the best team in Europe this year and do deserve to win it.
I also thought though, being a City supporter, that I'd share this random thought I had while walking to work this morning.
Manchester United have won the European Cup as many times as Nottingham Forest

201st Post
Congratulations to Pompey and Cardiff City for doing what Man United, Arsenal and Chelsea couldn't do over the past couple of years, spare us from more than 90 minutes of boring ass football.
I'm not in the mood to write about Man City's bullshit right now, but at least we're in Europe next year.

Well, I suppose that's true. (Funny pictures)
This is from Matt S. who for some reason was watching this horrendous MLS bullshit. Never let it be said that Fox doesn't love America

More Liverpool LULZ from Ahead of the Game
HICKS WARNED TO STAY AWAY
Merseyside Police have advised the Liverpool co-owner to avoid tonight's Champions League semi-final first leg against Chelsea because of fears for his safety. "Advice was given to the club based on a standard ongoing risk assessment," a police spokeswoman said. "The safety of all those attending has been considered." The club still expect Hicks to attend. Well, he'd be mad to miss a European Cup tie at Anfield.

Hilarity from the Old Firm last night
David Weir and Gary Caldwell were both suspended for being children last night at the final whistle after Longnamed mutha fucka Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink scored in stoppage time to give Celtic a 2-1 victory over the Huns.
We're not as ridic as Liverpool but almost there!
City bewildered as Thaksin Shinawatra doubts Sven-Goran Eriksson | Manchester City - Times Online
Manchester City’s worst fears were confirmed yesterday when Thaksin Shinawatra, the Barclays Premier League club’s controversial owner, said that he is considering the possibility of sacking Sven-Göran Eriksson at the end of the season. Eriksson has done an impressive job since taking over as City manager last July, but despite strong denials from the club, there have been suspicions for some weeks that the Swede’s job is under threat.
Holy Jesus, what is it with Billionaire owners? City do not produce miraculous results. Did he really think he could undo 32 years of City being City with some fucking money. You can't buy well in January and Eriksson was appointed very late in the summer to do too much with the group. He is the fucking future of this club. I wasn't sure when he was first appointed, but he inherited a hodge podge team bought really well with limited time, and voila top half of the table. The best part is, he tries to get them to play flowing football, City are no longer masters of the Long Ball. (When they're not running scared that is, because they'll hoof that shit like Liverpool or Bolton if they get nervous--but they're a relatively NEW side). Wenger does it with Arsenal and he's got Moral Victory and no trophies. Why isn't that enough for Frank right now? Because seriously, die hard Man City fans are thrilled with Sven.

More laughs at Liverpool's expense
Gillett offers Parry Support
Liverpool's co-owner George Gillett has thrown his support behind Rick Parry in the wake of Tom Hicks' call for the chief executive to resign.
WOW this is amusing
Player of the Year Nominations
THE NOMINEES
Players' Player of the Year
Emmanuel Adebayor (Arsenal)
Cristiano Ronaldo (Man Utd)
Fernando Torres (Liverpool)
David James (Portsmouth)
Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal)
Steven Gerrard (Liverpool)
Young Player of the Year
Gabriel Agbonlahor (Aston Villa)
Cristiano Ronaldo (Man Utd)
Fernando Torres (Liverpool)
Ashley Young (Aston Villa)
Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal)
Micah Richards (Man City)
How old do you have to be to not be a young player anymore? Ronaldo is well older than the rest of them. Not that it matters, Ronaldo is going to win the main one and probably the other, and deservedly so.
I think that Torres would be a better choice just because of demeanor and sportsmanship and if he was in the season any year when Ronaldo wasn't scoring 97 goals he'd be a shoe-in.
David James' inclusion made me laugh though I have to admit.

Let's all laugh at Liverpool some more
Hicks demands Parry quits Liverpool role - CNN.com
Hicks is believed to be unhappy with Parry's ability to run the club. His main concerns are supposedly that Parry is slow and unresponsive when dealing with manager Rafa Benitez and the signing of players, and that he is disrespectful to fans, particularly over tickets for last season's Champions League final.
Well, Tom Hicks is a fucking nut, and the best thing that could happen for Liverpool fans would be if he fucking dropped dead. BUT he is right about Parry rolling over to Uefa regarding tickets for last years' final. It was a disgrace. I wonder why Hicks would be on the side of good and not evil for that one though
Karren Brady
I have been reading a lot about Karren Brady lately, and I want to be like her when I grow up even though she's only 10 years older than me which makes me past it.
Also, I've moved house and my computer died but I'm settled and bought a new computer. Back to regularly scheduled bullshit now!
04 March 2008
hey kids
apparently when your computer starts smoking this is even worse than when you start smoking as it signals the end of a computer quicker than you'll get lung cancer.
my computer is dead and I have to keep my nose clean at work.
Fear not, I've ordered a new computer but until then.. umm clean your room!

On Scarves and Fan Loyalty
Some guy's girlfriend knitted him a scarf and it was Red and White which he is associating with Arsenal.
When I first started following the Premier League last season, I chose Reading, because they were getting into the Premier League for the very first time, just like I was, and they seemed like just the sort of plucky underdog worth backing. However, Reading has dropped into the relegation zone this month, and after seeing their dire form lately, I’m starting to wonder if I’m going to have a Premier League club to support next August.
All the while, this red and white scarf seems to be calling out to me. “Come join us, neophyte. Leave your little underdogs behind. Do you really want a life full of relegation battles and Coca-Cola Championship playoffs? Of course, you don’t. Come root for a real winner.”
You know at the end of last season before Frank bought City and Sven came in, my exact line of thought was "hmm well I guess if City get relegated next year I'm moving back to Manchester". Not out of hyperbole or anything else and I was dead serious. 1) I needed to be there to support my club again and 2) hoping for an FA Cup match to catch on television just wasn't going to do.
I do not understand what goes into "picking" a team to root for nor giving that team up because they suck. I don't think I ever will
