Don't like the way the commentator said "He's missed it" cos he was cheering for Owen. Why couldn't he say "he's saved it"?
Didn't know this bit:
Manninger was named Premier League player of the month for March 1998.
Player of the month at the business end of a double winning season. Poor chap.
There really has to be a way of stopping these accidents happening. Close the gates for longer and have some sort of camera system so that if the central computer or train driver knows there's a vehicle there when the gates are down, there's still more than enough distance for an emergency stop.
And if it's because there weren't any gates, make gates mandatory.
In Kerala once staying at a mates near a local station, there was a set of gates on the level crossing and they went down about 5-10 mins before the train arrived. So loads of natives obviously just climbed over the gates and walked across.
Decent keeper for us.
Although I remember going to Anfield near Christmas, I had a massive hangover from the do the night before, and he was in goal. He was absolutely **** and we got done 4-0.
Still, he had a Premier League winners medal even if he didn't earn it. Which more than can be said for the current lot.
RIP Alex
Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.
