On the Ball (new Football Focus)

Very noble of you to defend Matt, Anna. Nice to see some Liverpool fan loyalty there.

LOL Anna, I think I was the Fish... but fortunately I managed to snap their rods

[Ladygooner]

Champions league draw underway.........

[????]

We (non-big 4s) don't care until the knockout stages

[Annasfield]

So far so good.

United have got to cover some miles there though...........

[Annasfield]

Liverpool

Lyon

Fiorentina (Have always wanted to go to Florence :)-D)

Debrecen

Happy with that.

[Keef]

I've always wanted to visit Florence too, want to see a traditional candle lit opera there.

Aaaaanyway, Chelsea have the toughest draw, but none look particularly bad.

[Annasfield]

All booked! Hopefully all worthwhile having no holiday over the Summer.

[Sharon_H]

Can you pm the details, quite fancy a couple of them, ta.

[Annasfield]

No probs Sharon.

[Sharon_H]

Cheers Anna, you're a star!

[Mick Mac]

What has happened to Villa!. Poor team this season (only capable of beating Liverpool so far).

Is it "lock up your sons" in Florence then?

[Sharon_H]

Maybe, but, what goes on tour stays on tour, you know that. :)

[Mick Mac]

I agree Sharon. I have my ticket.

[Annasfield]

Fazakerly!

[Mick Mac]

Continuing their form of the second half of last season (only Hull were worse during this period). All fell apart with the signing of Agent Heskey. Plenty of bad puns lined up about Vienna....

Eduardo charged with cheating by UEFA - 1 September hearing.

[Gallas charged with scoring lucky unfair goal - Caldwell charged with being crap - Arshavin charged with being too good]

We bring our own.

The Eduardo HOOOO HAAA has reminded me of a couple of things that have occurred in the not too dim and distant past, which raised far less anger and bluster and should have done. Firstly, the lady boy that is Ronaldo was was perhaps the greatest exponent of the dive seen in the prem since it's inception, yet all that was ever levelled at him was "he needs to get that out of his game",and no more was made of it. Secondly a fat scouser "once a blue always a blue" shrek look a like famously went down as if he had been shot by a sniper when Sol Campbell did so much as look at him, and AGAIN VERY LITTLE WAS SAID. The fact that it was during our unbeaten run and was the only way the despised Mancs could beat us was despicable. And as for a certain Mr Gerrard, during the last CMPL campaign he famously went down when the defender so much as breathed on him!!!!! The UEFA thing with Eduard helps to show how inconsistent the powers that be are in such matters. Will they be charging all the above and many, many others, with the deceiving the ref, of cousre they fcuking won't. Bunch of useless two faced c**nts. OK Ban Eduard, we'll still beat all comers.

Probably nicked from the club shop.

[Annasfield]

All those banners are made by dedicated fans. We don't the need the club to provide us with plastic flags or scraves to create a colourful or noisy atmosphere.

A lad I know was going to make one for the Chelsea game in the CL last season.

"I DIDN'T FIND THIS UNDER MY SEAT" ;-) Not sure if it ever was made.

Like I said probably nicked from the club shop. The only thing you'd find under your seat at Anfield is an empty handbag somebody has chucked away because they're trying to dispose of the evidence.
