Title: cup final Post by: AdamM on May 19, 2007, 01:45:28 PM what bets have you had?
I've covered a few possibilities. Draw/Man U 1st to score rooney/ronaldo/O'Shea Rooney 2-0 Ronaldo 2-1 A Utd fan at work said he was betting in Chelsea so he's be happy either way. Personally I'll be miserabl;e if Chelsea win and picking up a few quid from the bookies won't change that so I'm finalcially and emotionaly lumped on Utd.

I'm quite enjoying it. it's tight and cagey but its the best two teams in England. It was never going to be 4-3 at half time all bets still live for me too ;pokergods; Title: Re: cup final Post by: bhoywonder on May 19, 2007, 03:52:12 PM showcase ma arse

Title: Re: cup final Post by: Colchester Kev on May 19, 2007, 04:52:36 PM while we calm down after all the excitement and pause for breath as we wait for extra time ... try this little puzzle to while away the break...

Title: Re: cup final Post by: amcgrath1uk on May 19, 2007, 05:18:51 PM naaaa I think it'd have been given as a foul

Title: Re: cup final Post by: AdamM on May 19, 2007, 05:33:22 PM giggs kicked no one
ah well premiership taken back this year. pick up the rest next year ;marks; Title: Re: cup final Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 19, 2007, 05:34:22 PM giggs kicked no one ah well premiership taken back this year. pick up the rest next year ;marks; LOL Title: Re: cup final Post by: Indestructable on May 19, 2007, 05:39:21 PM Let the debate start
A cup double has to be better than winning the Premiership. No way the Premiership is the real test. Or none of them really matter compared to the Champions League. ;ifm; Hmm must start a poll. Title: Re: cup final Post by: LeKnave on May 19, 2007, 06:30:44 PM giggs kicked no one ah well premiership taken back this year. pick up the rest next year ;marks; Well, to be fair he did nail Cech into the bk off the net. And subsequently the correct decision was made. I think that we were the better team, but as usual in domestic cup finals these days, we still lose it. Great finish from Drogba though. Great move. Sickening result. Title: Re: cup final Post by: LeKnave on May 19, 2007, 06:34:04 PM btw, the game was absolute shite.
Title: Re: cup final Post by: Indestructable on May 19, 2007, 06:35:31 PM You are not wrong. At least tomorrows game can't be worse. ;D
Title: Re: cup final Post by: kinboshi on May 19, 2007, 06:47:06 PM goal line technology please robbed by traditionalism LOL no, take the red glasses off ... kicking the keeper into the net while he is holding the ball aint allowed these days. Thankyou. ..and let's ignore the fact that Giggs was fouled before then so it should have been a penalty. Oh, much the same as Maureen (not you The Nun) ignores the fact that it would have been a penalty and a red card for Cech if Garcia's goal hadn't been given in the semi-final of the CL in 2005. He doesn't stop going on about that goal - maybe this one can be brought up every time he mentions that one. Something tells me he won't want to mention the chavs getting the rub of the green? Good cup team chelsea - not bad for a small club. Title: Re: cup final Post by: Teacake on May 19, 2007, 07:53:09 PM Thank God for Liverpool & Milan or we would have to sit through this dross again on Wednesday!!! Two teams who are petrified to lose to each other.
At Hampden last Wednesday Sevilla & Espanyol showed how a final should be played although those fuggin idiots at ITV decided to show it on ITV4 so most of you probably missed it. >:? Title: Re: cup final Post by: Indestructable on May 19, 2007, 11:17:07 PM Couldn't believe that Fergie was trying to claim that Giggs should have had a penalty, I thought Jose was the bad loser but that was plain clutching at straws. Maybe if Ronaldo had turned up today they might have tried to score a goal?

Maybe if Ronaldo had turned up today they might have tried to score a goal? Yeah Ronaldo was quiet, and when he is, we can never do anything.

Champions league Premiership FA Cup League cup Title: Re: cup final Post by: Ironside on May 20, 2007, 02:21:41 PM nah i think a cup double is better reward that a league title
Title: Re: cup final Post by: AdamM on May 20, 2007, 02:49:39 PM for me
Champions league > Premiership Domestic double < Champions league (only just) champions league > than cup double Domestic treble > champions league cup double < Premiership If Liverpool win wednesday Man Utd and Chelsea fans will be envious but it's still nice to get the league trophy back. I'm sure Chelsea fans are reasonably happy with their haul too. good competeive season. long may it continue Title: Re: cup final Post by: Indestructable on May 20, 2007, 08:48:29 PM We will hold this list against United fans next year if they win a cup double. :)up
Title: Re: cup final Post by: AdamM on May 21, 2007, 08:26:01 AM as always, I stand by my words.
cup double is worth hasving but not at the expence of the League Title: Re: cup final Post by: turny on May 21, 2007, 09:09:07 AM the league table doesnt lie, ther best side will win over 36 games.
cups are good and in the following order champions league,f a cup , uefa cup, league cup. for me winning the league outwieghs them all. man united were the best this season and are champions. and i think most of you know my team Title: Re: cup final Post by: kinboshi on May 21, 2007, 09:39:59 AM As I've said in the other thread - the league is the one to win. The Champions League is a close second, but it's second to the league.
I'd quite happily swap the European Cup (if we win this Wednesday) for manure's League title. I'm quite sure chelsea would swap both of their cups for either of the two 'big ones'. I think chelsea will be disappointed with their haul this season, as they were up there challenging on all four fronts. Saying that, winning the two cups means that their season hasn't been a wash-out. Title: Re: cup final Post by: Graham C on May 21, 2007, 10:50:38 AM What a dull game the FA Cup final was. Thought Joe Cole should have been sent off early doors for that horrendous two footed from behind tackle he lunged in with - very very lucky to get away with that without even a yellow.
Good goal by Chel$ea, they've invested enough to win at least one decent trophy a season ;applause; Premiership is the trophy to win, the others are great, but the league is the main priority for every club. Even for those not in contention, remaining in the Premiership is their main goal. |
