My Prediction
Man Utd Vs Arsenal
1st Leg : 1 - 0
2nd Leg : 2 - 2

Barcelona Vs Chelsea
1st Leg : 1 - 1
2nd Leg : 2 - 2

United will meet barcelona in final, i hope it will ended through penalty shoutout. LOL

I can't believe this threads still alive. I thought they cancelled NFL Europe?

That would've worked if the thread wasn't actually called The English football thread. ;) Americans and reading...*shakes head*

I've only just started following the footy again in the last week for the first time since i was a kid, I even had to pick which team I support (it used to be Everton, because I had all their stickers for the 'Premier League '94' album lol)...
I went with QPR for the personal connection (my mum grew up around there and grandad took her to many a match at Loftus road) - currently in the Championship with buckets of greasy F1 money and no idea what to do with it, from what i've read the boardroom politics are a joke and they can't settle on a manager.
To be honest if I could support a smaller team I would, by my own standards I qualify for Oxford United :D... Could be worse though, I could be behind my local Norwich *shudder*

Anyway we lost to Wolves yesterday and definitely won't be making the play-offs... Is there anybody else on here following league football?
I guess if I was going to plumb for any Premier League team it would be Man City, the top four can f*ck off

I'll try not to chip in too often, rant about the comparative sh*tiness of the modern game and make a fool of myself :p:

Too late. :rolleyes:

pfft. You live in Manchester so it's excusable but don't things get really, really boring supporting Man U? They are the antithesis of homegrown football, their merchandise the soulless Cola-brand of the game recognised by all... it's depressing. How are Stoke doing these days?

Stoke are doing surprisingly well. Of all the teams I would've bet on going down when the season started, they were one of them. Now we've got a scenario where Newcastle and Middlesborough could very easily go down themselves. It's really not been a good year for Tyne-Tees football.

:laughing:

Are you joking?
On the contrary, there's seldom a dull moment.
It's the last thing supporting United is. You only have to look at the agony they put their fans through over the years to realise that.

Now I know you're joking!
Ryan Giggs, Wes Brown, John O'shea, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Danny Welbeck, Darren Fletcher, Darren Gibson, Richard Eckersley, Jonny Evans etc etc.

yes... joking... ha! gotcha!

i thought Giggsy was Welsh?

edit: my mistake, wiki cleared that up. bloody hell he's still going...
