Let me know when we can talk about it.  I watched it this morning.

This is great...the premiership going down to the last game. When did that last happen?

[godsshoeshine]

i didnt finish watching it until 10 pm eastern. mike owen must really really hate man u, because he had a couple of chances he usually buries. maybe should have let oba run at some people in the second half. knew it was fucked when dukes went off. they just dont keep possesion as well when hes not on the pitch. and how did the announcers not know that he's nursing a chronic injury?

That comes from Mikey's days at liverscum.

As many blown chances as Owen had, it really was Viduka going off that turned that game.  I hate to say this because I love the guy, but Alan Smith was shit and his entry to the game really was the turning point for the Toon.

toon really need to buy a servicable big striker this summer. viduka is old and always hurt and smith like you said just cant cut it. rumors of smith going to rangers were out there a couple weeks back

Fat, you forgot to mention fat..
 
 Viduka would be okay if he could stay off the meat pies and chips.

I guess only the treble would make the Manchester United Supporters Trust happy.

It's interesting that for a team who "buys" success they made 11m quid profit in the transfer market!!!

[godsshoeshine]

to me the interesting part is that man u made money in the transfer market and still lost money overall

Still depressed after the defeat with Manchester United, what a couple of years we have had after winning the Champions League in 2006.
