Football Focus

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I have some happy memories of The Bridge so I'll be rooting for the boys in blue too.

[Jah Lush]

So do I but their current style of football bores the pants off me. Joe Cole apart.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

tee hee.

What was Riise thinking?

[citizenED]

Who doesn't want to score in the Champions League semi-final?

[Keef]

What a cruel finish. Not over yet, but the one thing I wanted last night was a clean sheet. That has made it really tough for us now! By the way, did anyone keep count on how many times Drogba fell over last night?

[atila the gooner]

At last!!! Liverpool get a bad break. There is a god after all!!!! I still don't want Chavski or pool to win this competition, but boy how I enjoyed the look on the faces of the Liverpool team after the ginger one had struck a blow for Lokomotiv Fulham. Come on Barca!!!!

[Ladygooner]

Keef - I feel your pain! Football is a very cruel game - good luck for next wednesday.

Yes Ladygooner, and Arsenal fans know that more than most.

[ratty]

Merseyside Police have just stopped John Arne Riise on the M62...

Apparently he was heading in the wrong direction...

[Keef]

And to think, neither Anna or I said a gloating word after the Arsenal game. But silly me I forgot that Arsenal have all the bad luck, and are picked on by the whole world, bless their cottons.

[Sandperson]

Just to clarify, I wasn't gloating. I think we'll choke against Barca so I dare not gloat. ;-)

A stonewall penalty which turned the tide in your favour in the first leg, committed by a player who later scored your equaliser and maybe shouldn't have been on the pitch. That is worse than bad luck, it's blatant. So, I won't be greiving for the scousers when they exit the tournament, nor will I grieve for Chavski when they win f**k all this season, and hopefully Barca lift the CL trophy. As for gloating, well wait til we meet next season.

[Keef]

And like the Murphy's...

[atila the gooner]

It does make me smile when other supporters accuse us of being bitter when we complain, because of course scousers NEVER complain, nor do Chavski (who boo their own team even when they draw), the mancs and fergusmoan and the most gracious losers ever, etc, etc. So Keef, this is yet another case of pot calling the kettle black.

No Keef - we didn't. It's not the Liverpool way. Must say I was surprised at Rafa last night, but I guess he was venting his frustration.

I was really wound up earlier by some of the shite I read, but I've decided to just rise above it. Our trophy room speaks volumes and will continue to do so.

It's pathetic - I started posting on here about football because it made a change from the bile that goes on to 606 and other forums. It used to be quite pleasant - it's now a place I think I'll avoid.

[Jah Lush]

Here we go again. Same old Atila. At least you're consistant. You don't want any English side to win unless it's Arsenal. Happy St George's Day.

[atila the gooner]

I have never wanted any club to win CL except Arsenal. Why would I want that? As for Annasfield, all I can say is maybe the truth hurts. I find it amazing that she is shocked that other supporters don't wish any other club well, other than their own, why should they? I find that very surprising. Come on Barca!!

[Annasfield]

I can't stand Utd and Chelsea and Arsenal aren't exactly my favorite teams right now. But do you know what - it's not because of the clubs it mainly because of the fans. Unfortunately when clubs are successful, morons tend to jump on the bandwagon.

By all means Atila - go on other forums and rant and rave and call people infantile names and be rude. Why not? That's your right. In fact continue to do so on here if it makes you feel better about yourself.

On here it used to be respectful, with a bit of jesting. Since you joined, it get's down right rude.

Edited for lousy spelling.

I think you'll find dear lady that my postings in this respect, have been far from rude. And you guys have a cheek to have a go at me.

[bon3yard]

Blimey, I didnt know that Wenger himself used this forum.

[atila the gooner]

My postings regarding our CL tie with Pool haven't been rude at all. I've merely expressed opinion, which other don't agree with which is fine.

[Keef]

Oh well, IF we do get knocked out by Chelsea this year, we'll win nothing... Maybe I should start supporting a successful North London team. Spurs here I come! :-S

[Jah Lush]

Good lad. At least we've won something this year. Come On You Spurs:))

[atila the gooner]

Ah, such wit!!! How about 61, never again? Or if you prefer 71, 2004, 71, 2004. Or Double, Double, Double, Sol Campbell has won the double.Or......shall I carry on singing the praises of the Carling Cup winning colossus that is Spurs????
