I had been refraining from posting here as things had been going rather well for us while I didn't... but that's obviously nonsense.Quote:

I think this is as big, almost bigger. I'd almost go as far as describing it as large.Quote:

Yeah, it is probably nonsense. But what if it isnt...... why take the risk? :-)
Second legs of CL SFs after a drawn first leg are generally not the smallest games a club will play all season.Quote:

There would be a definite feeling of regret if we dont win the league. But a part of me thinks that a win tonight will help us in the run in.Quote:

What did you think Viktor's pass for B's goal? I thought it was sublime {and Easy set him free - nice combination of our 10, 14 and 7. Think Bergy to Titi to Bobby P.}Quote:

If he wins us both tournaments and scores in the remaining five games, will you send him a bunch of flowers and a bottle of bubbly with a hand-written apology?
Seen. I'm going to concentrate on the World Cup from now on :-\Quote:

As the late, great Graham Taylor famously said 'get your head up, look for your win'...
Of course, later that evening he was prowling the touchline saying 'you know we've been cheated. Your referee has got me the sack' :-(
Paul Merson hit the bar with a free-kick in that game?Quote:

You don't have to choose old stick 'cos we ain't winning either. We will hand the whole show back to CIty when West Ham beat us and Atletico will give us a good shoeing tonight ( courtesy of Gronkey missing a hatful of sitters ).
Oh, of course, yeah. Just saying, I'd be more excited about tonight if we were in a comfortable third place in the Prem.Quote:

Now City have forced me to watch the remaining games.
Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in :-(
(Another godfather quote that you wont get :-))
You mean a bit like they are? I think they're a comfortable 4th and rested the entire team at the weekend.Quote:

Odin and Kai back tonight. If need be, we have three world class tens.
And Easy owes them for that pelanty VAR overturned.
Let's hope your God turns up tonight and puts Simeone in his place.Quote:

Simple. Just make the landowner an offer he cant refuse :-)Quote:
