I just assumed people here at 'Poly were more enlightened. Silly me?

Still!!???

I can understand the rivalry but surely, religion is no longer the reason, is it?

Cristiano Ronaldo, best player in the world at the moment bar none IMHO...

Set up 3 in that game, pretty decent. 16 goals and 11 assists from a winger is pretty good

Ãskallin, when was the last time you were at OT?

In other news - superb goal by Shevchenko.

[Ãskallin]

I havent, planning to go there in august though. What has that to do with anything?
When I ll be back in Iceland with a job it will be easier to go there since it costs a bit of money.

And at Middlesborough bitter cnuts..

I wonder if this is a sign that Chelsea might start playing well? They've managed to stay in touch for the quadruple playing badly, and it looks like they might be starting to find some form at the right time.

It proves you are a plastic glory-hunter whose gloating at the success of one of the biggest clubs in the world can be safely disregarded.

Tottenham Fan Vs Chelsea Fight

Ah so every football fan outside England who follows a team is a "plastic glory hunter" because he doesnt go to every game .
Well I wake up in the middle of the night and watch games here and at home I never miss a game. So I dont know if thats very plastic, depends on your point of view I guess .

Anyway I've done the math 441 pounds to go to one league game at Old Trafford from Iceland, that might explain why I am not a regular

You don't have to go to every game, or even most games. I just refuse to take crap off people who have no credentials other than glory hunting.

Why do you support Man Yoo?

[Colonâ„¢]

This is crap. So you can't support a team because you don't live near to it, even if you like the team's players, their mentality or their traditions? Only people from Manchester can support Man U? Only the Milanese can support Inter? I don't know if it's just me but 10 years people weren't *****ing that much about this.

[LordShiva]

Does this mean I need to support Mahindra United?
