SimonM Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 If McCabe doesn't want to go there - and it seems neither side wants to go there - I am wondering if it because he has seen West Ham's books and takes the pragmatic view that a third of a cake is better than none at all? After all that it looks like it still may not be all over for West Ham and there could still be another fine or even a points deduction...

Keef Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 LOL!LadyG, a 4-4 thriller at Old Trafford? Would make for quite the match, but I susepct it'll be more of a 1-1 / 1-0 / 0-1 type affair.Agre with Matthew, even a win today would not bring the league Liverpool's way, Man U just are not likely to drop more than 3 ponts the rest of the season. However, I think a second place finish within touching distance of first would actually be a significant improvement for the pool (once people forget disappointment and look at previous tables). Still need to keep plugging aay though, and a win today would still be very nice...

I've still not forgiven David James, 'Jessie James' cowboy mistakes, against United, from 12 years ago, that cost us title.

Sandperson Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Mike CG you are a disgusting human being and I hope you get banned from the forum. Maybe you've got a song for the dead of Hillsborough or Heysel or Bradford?Good stuff from Liverpool today, we were poor, Vidic and VDS especially. Is this the result you need to win the league?

Sandperson Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Now that that offensive and disgusting post has been erased (thank you admins) I will re-post my congratulations to Liverpool. Very well played today, we were very poor, especially Vidic and VDS. Does this mean that Liverpool are now on their way to glory?

???? Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Back on topic...I think this certainly makes it a bit more intersting but my money is still on Man U (well actually it's on Chelsea but I think I've lost that). The other end of the table is really exciting....Newcastle looking very vunerable with Arsenal and Chelsea their next two games.A question for the Liverpool fans. Why hasn't Benitez let them play like this all season? I think he's found his courage too late for this particular pot but Europe...who know?

Mikecg Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Sandperson I will let your personal attack go this time because you are upset that I slated your beloved ManU, If you actually knew me you would not say that about me. However I would'nt expect anything less from a United fan.

I think he's found his courage too late for this particular pot but Europe...who know?Rafa is too cautious, and I don't think that is going to change. Having said that they've beaten Chelsea, United and Real Madrid all home an away this season, so that proves they have the players to do the job. I can imagine Ferguson is having a fit as now everyone in Europe knows Liverpool are the best even if they do win the title this season for the 18th time.I could have been at Old Trafford today, but gave my ticket to a friend. Do I regret it!? Hell no! When I go to Old Trafford it's always bad luck, so feel relieved I've done my bit for the 'cause' :))Have to say though, I am slightly disappointed it wasn't 6-1, I think Gerrard should have scored a second, and El Zhar should have made an easy pass for Babel to score in the last seconds. Anyway, 4-1 is not bad. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/40/#findComment-181144 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Mac Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Well done Anna and well done all Liverpool fans, thats a great win and one I was not expecting. MU can't really afford a slip up now, although the same can be said of Liverpool, they probably have to win every game to have a chance at the title.

ratty Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Cannot afford a slip up???? C'mon, one swallow and all that. The title is United's already. Liverpool have been so wonky this season and totally do not deserve to win the title.and btw I fooking hate man utd!
