I think Chelsea are definitely getting that Boring Boring tab
that Arsenal took so long to shake off.
When really they are just efficient like a German team, but one that's shit at penalties

It's fine having the Boring Boring tab if you're winning things. Some of the Bayern fans were questioning whether the days of tiki-taka football are over after the recent decline of Barcelona and the success of the more straightforward attacking style (ie Premiership style) of Real Madrid.

Mbia scored the injury time goal to send Sevilla into the UEFA Cup final (or WTH they call it now). On loan from QPR, of course.

We even loan-out players to be regulars at AC Milan.

How the f**k did we get relegated so pathetically last season?

Even the manager that oversaw the whole f**k-up is mid-table with Stoke, and after him Redknapp is hardly a managerial liability (in the short-term at least).

I blame Bosingwa...

I think it was their Board actually buying loads of high wage players. I don't think Hughes was really to blame.

Ronnie is through to the final.

Who is is playing for, Arsenal or Hull?

I thought Giggs looked good in his suit last week, but I don't know why Man Utd insist on sticking that emblem on there. Looks rather outdated in this modern, sartorial world. Also, I wish Mourinho would get back to wearing finely tailored suits rather than tracksuits.

New York Giants.

Well it's officially "Goodnight Irene".

Weird feeling for me, as even though I ain't a Bristol Rovers supporter, my mother's side of the family pretty much ran the club. My late uncle was chairman there.

I remember as a kid sitting in his office and reading all the official letters from the Football League, legal stuff etc. Was cool seeing the inner-workings of a football club.

They'll be back, but it might take a few years (Oxford and Luton are similarly big, and it took them both years).

It was a said day, for sure, the board should be ashamed. Still we'll have the best stadium in the Conference. Up the Gas!

Season's nearly over. Dear God! What will we do until the World Cup?!

I have NEVER felt so devastated for another team as I do for Liverpool right now. Unbelievable Jeff.

Keegan's Newcastle were in a similar vein, and I would have LOVED it if they'd won the title.

On the plus side I won £4.50
