Most hated sporting team

[Tom Halsey]

Who are these other 2 then - because I can't see any in that defence.

O'Shea and Neville (Gary).

Neville isn't the most naturally talented, but he's made the most of what he has.

 

[Tom Halsey]

You never came close to them last year.

So that's why at the turn of the year we were red hot favourites then?

That is the bookies trying to avoid paying out a killing - they always do a simialr thing with England - the blinkered pound I believe they call it.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Yes, they didn't want to pay out a killing, because it looked for all money like we were going to win it.

[Tom Halsey]

It may have been blinkered in hindsight, but it still looked like we were going to win it at the time

 

[marc71178]

Not to the seasoned punter who was unbiased (such as myself who managed to get 5-2 on Arsenal to win it)

 

[Tom Halsey]

Yes, but even Frank McLintock (sp) said on Soccer Saturday recently that it looked like we were going to win it - and he is biased, but to Ar$ehole.

 

[Craig]

Yes, they're good, but they're not 43 games unbeaten, they're 43 games unbeaten in the Premiership. They're good, but not brilliant, like people think - they've consistntly failed against quality opposition in Europe.

Which was demonstrated at the San Siro last year

You don't need to remind me they haven't won in Europe, even Aston Villa has won more then them.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Arsenal played well for that 5-1 - but they are still too inconsistent. I believe they needed to win the last game of the groups to even have a chance of going through.

 

[Craig]

They did, so what?

Tell me what is Manure's record for games undefeated in the Premiership?

 

[burridge_1994]

[Shaggy Alfresco]
