It's what you get when too much wa*king is done over a purple patch of a side like Villa. If Arsenal hadn't been so $hit / struggled with so much injuries this season, they would be clear of Villa.

And there I was thinking the fixtures were rigged on your behalf so that didn't happen - or so some funny sounding bloke with a beard told me...

Also, after a Tuesday CL game @ Inter Milan, it was followed up on the Sunday with a 0-0 with Spurs in the Carling Cup Final.

So, all but one (v Liverpool) of our games after a Champions League game, we have played away. And in 6/8 games following a CL game we have dropped points / not won (in the case of CC Final).

keith's going to love that

Why? I don't give a shiny sh!te what excuses they come up with, in fact, it makes it funnier by the minute.

Those silver shirts, he used that one to good effect didn't he. Even better that Liverpool dicked them in their own backyard, playing in all silver.

Or was it the fixture change, you know, the one the club would have to agree on, which they did, and take the money. Maybe he should boycott talking to the people who run the club and not the media.

love how you ignore the facts posted by nemanja to respond to my one liner

I haven't ignored anything, as I say, I don't care what excuses they come up with. They played at home, we played in silver and they still got dicked.

to be fair to them, most have openly admitted they were alan pardewed.
i dont get the silver thing.

It's not excuses, they are facts.

But you're right, selling you're soul to Sky doesn't give you the ideal preparation for a big game like on Saturday.

I personally blame the lack of roof, the Sun in Vida's eyes for Torres' fluke goal was a killer.

Because you're a typical JCL, that's why. Ask one of the more knowledgeable Man U fans.
