PGC is a she. But she's not soft ;-)

[aquarius moon]

Isn't she a Millwall fan or am I confusing her with someone else?

[Otta]

Millwall and Rangers.

[Mick Mac]

Ok. Lets move on. The point I was making has changed direction somewhat.

And I accept I'm far from perfect.

Bit I have a soft spot for her.

Yesterdays champions league had some excellent goals did anyone see? Wow, specially all of Porto's goals, that casemiro who is on loan from madrid has some good technique in his freekicks. Hopefully tonights mathches bring us good entertainment.

I am going for PSG to win and Bayern to win.

[jackwelts]

Yep, really top notch goals.

Yesterdays champions league was pretty entertaining aswell.

PSG deserved the win Chelsea were horrible.

You predicted the winners correctly, Bayern anhilated shaktar 7 - 0.

What irony that it is David Luiz who scored the vital goal to take the game to extra time.

[red devil]

Referee had a stinker, that aside Chelsea deserved to go out, PSG by far the better team. Mourinho has hardly rotated his squad this season, and I think that is now catching up on a lot of his players, PL isn't a foregone conclusion.

If the PL teams continue to do poorly in the CL there will eventually come a time when only 3 teams will qualify for the CL...

[Parkdrive]

Many pundits and , finally, the British press are now critical and down right scornful of Chelsea. For Maureen to attack another team for being too "agressive" is hilarious. He was also scornful of the fact that PSG wasted time in the dying minutes of the game with score at 2 all. Did he expect them go for an all out attack and risk being undone on the counter attack? Players surrounding the ref en masse, or babies as Ibrahimovic called them, to get a player booked/sent off was just one of the "tactics" employed by the chavs was criticised by many. Souness and less so Carragher were scathing of the chavs performance last night. Watching a player released to the opposition because he's thought to be expendable scoring against his former club (sound familiar?) was too sweet. Even better still was the fact that the toxic Clarkson was in the crowd to watch them getting dumped out of the competition.

Chelsea epitomise everything I hate about the Premiership and here's another glowing reference to our wonderful local club and why they get my total support.

Is Clarkson a Chelsea fan then? Nasty club for a nasty man.

Yes he is, and spot on Otta.

You might also like to have a read of this Jah. Fair play to the author who's a Spurs fan

[Jah Lush]

Yeah, fair play to him, pretty much agree with that 100-per-cent.

[Jah Lush]

A legend wherever he played. Well played Hearts.

Poyet sacked as manager of Sunderland.

Not surprise there then. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31902933

[Parkdrive]

Wasn't he also shown the door at Brighton? Perhaps he needs to take a look at his track record in future before pointing the finger of blame at others.

[Otta]

Very glad the pool scrapped out a win last night. Before the match

Man U 56

Pool 51

Looked bad.

56

54

Much better. United did look very good against Spurs, but I don't expect them to play like that every game til the end of the season...

[Jah Lush]

There are very good reasons why Man Utd looked good against Spurs. Spurs didn't turn up. We were shit from start to finish. It was by far our poorest display since they lost 0-3 at home to West Ham last season.

Spurs have played 13 games more than United. Maybe it has finally taken it's toll on tired legs.

The return of Mata and Carrick gave a much better balance to the team with Blind slotting in at left back and with Rooney playing up front he nearly always scores against Spurs. Angel Di Maria wasn't playing because of his ban. He'll find it hard to get back in now. He's been hugely disappointing and certainly not worth his place in the side. Utd should play an unchanged side against Liverpool at the weekend. Should be a corker of a match and I'm looking forward to watching it.

I also feel the same way.

[Jah Lush]

Advocaat in at Sunderland.

More of this sort of thing please.

It's about time rich Premiership clubs did more to help their supporters.

[red devil]

Found this...

Go to an away game and you could benefit from discounted tickets and travel. The Premier League has given a ?12m to clubs for them to subsidise the extra costs involved for match-goers visiting another club. Launched last season, some clubs offered ticket deals while others provided free coach travel.

I know West Brom provide free coach travel for their away fans...

[Jah Lush]

Well that's blown my generous Spurs story to shreds.

[red devil]

I was surprised to find out the Premier League stumped up that cash, not the clubs themselves. Unless some clubs dip into their own coffers as well. Either way, ?12m is a pretty paltry sum in the grand scheme of things...
