Oh Dear, we're going to get that Battle of Britain crap again, with the Rangers team playing out of their skins trying to attract interest from a decent club. :? :duck:
Championship Plymouth Argyle 1 - 2 Leeds Utd :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Points 46; Position 23 RELEGATED :cry: :cry:

Spuds should get through that!

I remember the good old days, TWO years ago when Liverpool topped the UEFA rankings for 3 years.

Oh well, we've got a good old English manager in now! Image

Thank god that crazy spaniards F**KED OFF to the European Champions. :banghead:

Manu v Rangers, Celtic losing badly, perhaps we will now have heard the last of the "top two" in Scotland joining the EPL

I think United and Chelsea will be very happy with their draw and should both qualify comfortably.
Not so easy for Arsenal as Shakhtar and Braga could be tricky opponents but they should go through.
Very tough group for Spurs with Inter Milan,Werder Bremen and FC Twente.No easy matches there but I think they can do it.
Rangers....well,they will need a win and a draw against Valencia to stand a chance....a bit of a tall order,unfortunately.

Well, I wonder what Sir Alex thinks of his odd team selection v Rangers in view of the 1-1 draw!? A somewhat arrogant selection methinks. I'd have loved to see Rangers nick one!

Spurs looked okay, probably should have wrapped the game up in the 1st half, but 2-2 away can't be bad for a 1st game in the competition.

The big boys start tomorrow.... :wink:

1 -1? perhaps you meant the shots on target.

Of course, I forgot, your boys aren't in it, are they! :twisted:

Easy wins for both Aresnal and Chelsea tonight, didn't break sweat, didn't see much of the Arsenal game but Chelsea played without Lamps, Cole, Drogba and blooded some of the youngsters, including this young feller, who's not even in the premiership squad.

Arsenal had a fine display of attacking and passing game. Chamakh seems to be yet another great buy for Arsene. The midfield behind him: Cesc, Nasri and Arshavin have speed accuracy and dribbling skills to break any defence. We still have Walcot, v Persie and Ramsey to add to the squad. Looks promising - again. :thumb:
