I am an avowed Arsenal fan but cannot stand Eboue. He was an ok right back but right midfielder he ain't and his violence is embarrassing. In a team with Fabregas, Rosicky and Hleb in the middle it's nuts the best we/africa can do is that thug. Maybe we could get hold of the Barnsley right winger, that cross for the first against the Scousers was amazing.


But with a sense of perspective, even if we win FA this year that's about what was expected what with all our players being 12.

Liverpool 1 - 1 Inter Milan

Olympiakos 0 - 1 Chelsea

Arsenal 1 - 0 AC Milan

Celtic 0 - 1 Barcelona

Lyon 1 - 1 Man Utd



how is that for conservative predictions - if I was doing it as a schoolboy there would be at least 18 goals over the five games with Arsenal getting 5.

As a result of family commitments and illness I've not been able to post anything at all over the last few days. I've no complaints at all about the outcome of saturdays result. We were very, very poor, Eboue was his usual self, Wenger made it clear before the game the FA cup was not on his list of priorities, but we fans rate it very highly especailly when we are playing our major rival.We made exactly the same mistake when we palyed spurs in the Carling Cup, Wenger might not take it seriously but fans do. Nonetheless, well done to Man Ure. We can do no more but focus on the next game. At least we went out playing against a premiership side, although that is scant consolation.

Nice to see everyone is giving us a chance tonight then :-S


I should point out that last time we finished 5th behind Everton, we did actually lift this trophy, beating some bloody good teams (and Chelsea) along the way!


I'm not being over confident, but I think we can get a result, at least in the home leg...

Basically, like all too many of Liverpool's games this season, it will all depend on Stevie G, Carra and Torres. If they are on form, we have a good chance. If they are not, we may well be found wanting. We need more strength in depth! Anyway, good luck to all the Brit Teams, especially The Pool, and Celtic who have a hell of a test!

See Keef, as I said in my earlier posting, what do I know!!! Well done pool, SG's goal was a corker.

Very proud of the boys last night. The sending off may have made Inter less likely to win it, but it DEFINITELY made it a hell of a lot harder for Liverpool to win it. Good to see them keep up a great pace throughout and tire their opponents.


Why can't we do this in domestic competitions though?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


Chelsea didn't get an away goal, so will need to be careful at home.


Good luck to tonight's teams!


Only thing that annoys me is that Liverpool have to wait 3 weeks for the return leg cos both Milans are drawn at home for the second leg :(

Didn't see all of it, but Arsenal could have had a hatrick in the last 20 minutes or so that I watched! Hitting the bar in injury time was just painful, hope they can go and do the job. At least no away goal conceeded, so 1 goal over there could be enough...


Sorry for Celtic, having taken the lead twice against Barca.

My son is in Barcelona at the moment and they were watching the Celtic game and then the Arse game, I called him from the Emirates and he said that they all booed loudly when Henry scored, which apparently didn't go down well with the locals, especailly as they were wearing Arsenal home shirts. He's a lad, my boy. ;-)

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
