He's in Dallas.

I'm glad we're resting some very important palyers in Johnny, Ossie and Felli. The team we've put out should still be able to beat Norwich. COYB

It would probably make the competition more competitive though - utd put their ressies out against us in the last semi, something many others have been guilty of. Not saying it should happen but I think it would bring an end to this. I'd love the cup winners cup to come back with 2 teams from each country, the champions league to be just a league winners comp and Europa to have 2-4th from each country. Champs league could be 4 groups of say 6 who play h/a and top 2 from each go into the quarters etc.

I'm getting the same when I try getting in to the trivia threads... actually got into the daily one but it wouldn't let me answer!!! Here's my answers anyway... Robinson (twice I think) Schmeical (against us) Friedel (for Blackburn) Howard

This has been explained elsewhere... the runner-up will only go into europe if the winner achieves a champs league pos - otherwise it goes to league. So we need to get to the final then either win it or lose to whoever gets champs league pos out of chelsea or spurs.

Or face whoever gets the champs league place in the final.

Thing is these players are to Norwich and Bolton what Big Dunc is to us... maybe not as idolised but what you're saying is what opposing fans said for years about ferguson.

Kevin Davies was a top player early doors and has been very effective at what he does for years. He made his big move too early I think - never really made it at Blackburn when he cost them something like £8m. Look up his goal for Southampton against us - he wasn't always just the brute you make him out to be. As for Holt... 12 in the prem this season? He's certainly effective!

Have a good one

Think similarities are where we were positionally in comparison to each other - that has slipped more drastically for villa since O'Neill has left - he got more out of his players than anyone since. I always had to remind villa 'fans' how much they spent compared to us when they used to say we were similar in the few seasons we battled it out for 5th pos.

Spot on!

Of course - when they dicked city on the last day. Well done, don't think that would have ever have come to me - I was just about to guess Carlton Cole!

I actually thought he'd done it in his Wimbledon days but now you say it maybe it was the Norwich hattrick I remember - was it Gayle who scored a hattrick against us for Wimbledon?

I'm sure Efan Ekouku scored one against us or was it Marcus Gayle? (or neither!!!)

Dion Dublin

Andrey Arshavin Didier Drogba Pavel Progbanyek

Don't think his contract's up this summer - sure it's next. £4m this summer or for free next - happy with either!

Man.Utd by 2 points - actually got the same top 10 order as now with exception of Swansea in 10th over fulham. I had Wolves, Wigan and QPR down... Villa surviving on goal difference.

Can do now!!! Doing it now!

Can't open the link for some reason.

99% sure he's correct - remember both... Drogba vs Utd in extra time and Lehman vs Barca pretty early in the game.

To be fair we don't hear much from him either way. We'd have heard from him regardless at this time as it coincides with the Moyes 10yrs. He doesn't exactly hide when we're doing bad, he's at the game in the same seat every week!

I'm of the opinion that I'd hate city to win anything too.

Why should kenwright tell the fans the price? He shouldn't. He said that we need a mega rich owner as we need a stadium... only man city and Chelsea have seen this kind of money in the PL to date. We need a takeover yes but we need multi, multi millions - where takeovers have become common place the kind of money we need still isn't.

He will have already made his mind up - tit! He would have had an open goal if he hadn't of cheated!!!
