Same ole, same ole.

Getting pissed off with some of our fans mind, the Alty goal went in, and this bloke standing next to me was shouting "Tisdale out", ****ing cretin. Tons of calls of "c'mon Tisdale, sort it out" throughout the second half as well. Well he is sortiong us into the play-offs you bunch of muppets. Could be in trouble if Stanos out for long mind, but I guess that's why Tis has kept his eyes open for loanees, but I'm really not keen on Elam up front.

The Exeter fan i was with all day seemed happy enough.

Went and saw Wrexham 1 -1 Mansfield. Was happy to see the legend that is Mickey Boulding score, their goal came straight after we dominated around their box for 15 minutes, gutted.

Yesss, Cahill scores his 10th for the season :)

Lol'd at the Bolton keeper as well, not sure if you call that a howler or just bad luck....

Definite howler, bit of bad luck but really should be holding it.

Anyway, pleased with the Everton win, Scousers not getting 4th place now looking a realistic possibility, worst case scenario is of course Everton getting 4th and the Scousers fluking their way to another CL, that would be Satanic.

Come on you ****ing Blues.
Two great results in North London, and this one not marred by a grievous injury.

Interesting night ahead, would have thought Man Utd will progress without many scares, Arsenal on the other hand could go either way imo, wont be suprised if they go out tonight, but then equally wouldnt be suprised if they manage to sneak an away goal and go through.... Though a defeat here could have even more disasterous knock on effects with regards to the premiership....

On slightly unrelated news I see that William Gallas has launched a tirade at Theo Walcott, feel its slightly harsh given the decent performances he has put in over the last 2-3 weeks, hope he starts up front again tonight, his pace could really come into effect in the latter stages of the game once the old Milan legs begin to tire.

Reckon the Gooners are a decent shot tonight - if the first leg finished 1-1 I'd say you were gone as Milan would just defend like Gods and hit you on the break, but with them not getting an away goal it means they have to score, and more importantly it means they have to OUTscore Arsenal. Milan still favourites but Arsenal in with a hell of a shout IMO.

United should certainly go through. But we should certainly have gone through against Monaco, Leverkusen and Porto as well... :ph34r: But I'll back the boys to win it tonight. We've got a better side than Lyon and we're playing well. I just can't see us not scoring at least a couple.

Yeah Milan - Arsenal really comes down to the first goal - whoever gets it will win I reckon. Backing Milan but only a fool would count out Arsenal nicking one.

United - Lyon... getting nervous. Hopefully we'll just play our normal attacking game but European SAF hasn't inspired me with confidence in the last few years. If we attack we'll go through but if we get the same fare as in France I'm less confident.

EDIT: Just seen the line-up, ffs, don't like it, Tevez and Scholes should be playing, have never liked the idea of one up top, which however way you spin that line-up it is.

Surprise: Arsenal club captain is a ****.

I'm backing them to go through at any rate, Milan are 5th in Serie A at the moment and looking Liverpool-esque.

Ha. Hleb has his ankles kicked out from under him by Nesta & he's booked for diving!

Bugger. Cesc hits the bar. :-O All Arsenal just now. Need that goal tho.

Arse outclassing Milan from what I hear.

United having the better of things, obviously Ronnie's goal eases the pressure somewhat, now one Lyon goal only equals ET. Probably forgotten someone but there can't have been as prolific a winger as Ronaldo since Best in his pomp.

None immediately spring to mind, no. His goalscoring stands comparison with any striker's, obviously.

But yeah, Milan will probably nick it with a flukey one because the last twenty was all Arsenal. Flamini & Fabregas absolutely bossing the middle.

Was watching the Celtic game but their anti-football was making we lose the will to live.

Now watching Arsenal, how they are not winning is beyond me. Have dominated AC.
