f***in hell, that first one. Ive just been sat here like a big girl, tears running down my face. Greatest day and night of my life ever, cant believe i can say i was there. Feels like a dream looking back on it.

Merson is a f***in waste of oxygen, a total and utter Grade A 100% pure unfiltered c***. Dirty Alky coke head a******. But the sad thing is, we as a club are giving s****hawks like merson and all the other bell ends, all the ammunition they need to fire at us. We are not doing ourselves any favours here. Its a f***ing embarassment.

Good to see. Rafa has played this perfectly i think. He's got the fans and the media, in general, onside.

Yes, in normal circumstances id agree with you. But it isnt normal circumstances we're dealing with. The future of the club is at stake here, not just 3points. If these c**** get the loan, we will have to pay 30million every year just to finance it! Thats leaving the future of the club on very very shakey ground. Its ok looking at it with our "most knowledgable fans in the world" "above all that lark" hats on, but sometimes taking the vocal protest route is the only option that could make a difference. Its ok doing things behind our computers, sending emails etc, but its publicity and fan pressure that just might be able to make a difference here. And the best way of building that momentum, is by using the "world famous" Kop as the stage to do it. The Kop gets noticed. When papers report that the kop where singing against the owners, it has an affect around the world. The Kop is seen as the voice of our fans. To be fair the "tom hicks has got a big fat head" chant was sung once or twice by a small few, and it was a joke. The rest of the songs where to the point and made a statement, which the media everywhere has picked up on today. Last night was a great success IMO. For the time being, im happy to put on the pitch matters to the side, if it means ridding the club of them two.

Agree, both where immense. Sami was playing like he was in his prime in 00/01. Mascherano was f***ing everywhere. Ran his b******s off. Wish some of the others grew some b******s and took a leaf out of his book

I think its not too bad to be honest. I wasnt expecting much better. I tend not to watch the full re-runs of games, id rather just see highlights. The commentary on our games pisses me off aswell, really annoying. I was expecting a bit more behind the scenes stuff, like training sessions and that. Thought the john barnes show was good when it was on, and alot of the other interactive programs, and analysis programs arent too bad. I agree though that at the moment it is a little amateurish. The background music pisses me off, real cheap low budget s****. Im like most though, tend to flick over every now and then, but wouldnt sit for hours on end.

David Ellary Coming out of retirement Used to hate that t***, right cheating c***. Always Always Always got the utd games

The lists for these votes, the world player, euro player awards, are all bulls*** IMO. Same names nominated every year, even if that player has been s****. Crouch, last seasons 2nd top scorer in CL behind kaka, surely that warrents a nomination? No, but Ibrahimavitch does. Steve Finnan, consistently one of Europes best right backs for the past 3years? Where the f***s his nomination? Its bulls***. Cech won euro keeper of the year last season, or some such award, even though he was injured for 7months. Its a joke. Fashionable players for fashionable clubs.

Dont get me wrong, i wouldnt be complaining if we got to moscow, id go over for the game, whatever the cost. I just think back to Istanbul, no aggro whatsoever, and then compare it to Athens. I watched lads have tickets stolen outside the ground from fellow reds, seen little s***s in sytagma square throwing full cans at people, dropping bottles from the ledge above the subway tunnel in to square, where people were walking in. And then all the s*** that went on in the ground that i dont need to go in to. It just wasnt the same atmosphere, there was a lot of c**** lookin for trouble, didnt get that in Istanbul. I think Moscow could potentialy be a disaster. I agree with what a few people have said, these c**** need a good f***in truncheon to the head, locked up in hell for a few days. But for the reputation of the club, it does us no good.

As much as i want as to get to every final, i wouldnt be too upset if we didnt make it to Moscow. I think after Athens last year, and with the cost involved of travelling to Moscow, plus the security issues etc, this might really prove one step too far for alot of fans. Im expecting that travel costs to Moscow would be well in excess of the 400-500 quid day trip flights you could get to athens/istanbul. Whats flight time for the UK? 5/6hours? Could they even run day trips? I think a few years off would do us good. Athens just didnt have the same buzz as Istanbul, few years off and the hunger would be back. Im probably talking s**** like, but id be more than happy with a creditable champions league run, and a solid title push. I just think Moscow has nightmare written all over it, for so many reasons

I know, imagine any of the goings on from istanbul/athens in moscow! f***in hell, the police would lead you off, never to be seen again. Ive just finished a book "the 12th commandment" and alot of it is set in Russia. f***in scarey b*****d place that is

Agree with everything there mate, Athens was an absolute sham. The one difference aswell was that in Istanbul, i felt as though the Turks wanted us there, they welcomed us. Didnt get the same vibe off them in Athens. And im not even going to go in to the refugee camp that they called the airport, thousands of people wandering around the side of the runway, planes taking off without checking tickets, We were told we couldnt get on our flight because it was full! Had to wait 10hours and bunk on another. Theyd let any c*** on! People having to start fires on the runway to keep warm,no food, no drink. It was a disgrace. Istanbul was bad, but atleast they provided some shelter in the airport. The airport in Athens was like a picture from some humanitarian crisis in Africa. If you where there you'll know what i mean, ive never seen anything like it in my life. Whatever happens, if we get anywhere again, id never do the daytrip. Its hell on earth

Fernando Torres is so good that when he was a sperm, he didnt swim to the egg, the egg swam to him

One thing alot of us have forgot aswell. 2years ago Rafas dad died whilst the sqaud where at the club world championship. He had the choice to travel back home for the funeral. He didnt, he stayed for OUR sake. That the ultimate sacrifice. All the more reason why he needs us now. We have a duty to him

No problems mate. I apologise if the reply seemed aggresive. Just a bit jumpy and on edge with all this rafa business
