I reckon they do. Anyone that's been to 62 games so far this year has exemption. plenty of people who religiously follow home and away come on here and can barely string a sentence together never mind give a reasoned analysis of the game. then there are posters like tmonkey or ohmelads who i think go to matches less yet are recognised as the best football posters on here and whose opinion i'd rather hear than nufc.com 9 times out of 10. nufc.com does a great, great job as a factual resource, tickets, televised games, archives, match reports etc. but the opinion pieces are no more valuable than any given poster on here. going to x number of games doesn't grant you perspicacity. you can go to all games including reserve and academy matches and still be thick as a bell-end and full of shit, likewise you can go to a dozen games a year and still have brilliant insight. there's good and bad on the forums yet .com consistently take the position that they are somehow above that and holier-than-thou, which refreshingly you don't find on here. Bang on, jpd. Great word too.

If Jesus had a bike, it would be a racer. Nope a Raleigh Shopper with the basket on the front and the 3 gear handle grip. He'd need a racer to get away from the Romans. But the Romans have got chariots. And they can do that thing with their shields like a turtle. So them imo.

Devastated for them.

Fuck off Jenas!

Apparently the penalty was an awful decision. Even better. Aye it was a bit harsh like. Luke Young jumped to try and get in the way of the ball but he jumped a bit too far and it hit his outstretched arm behind him. Couldn't do much about it. Definite pen. Haven't seen it like, but it was a stone-waller. Yeah I thought so too. It's only fair since Villa gave them a head start by playing Knight. Very true Matt. Fuck you Mark.

Sharp as a dart that bloke.

Come on you Toffees. Getting a bit of a soft spot for Everton.

Last minute winner. Duff problees.

Come on Villa, sort your shit out please.

Good on them.

No.

No. Apples and oranges tbh.

How come when we played at the San Siro, we had piss and flares thrown at our fans, and Liverpool - of all supporters - get showered with affection? At the end of the Anfield match, we gave their team a round of applause, and their fans a round of applause, along with all the mutual respect. So you didn't throw shit at them in paper cups then? Respect.

Let's just be very careful what we say here gentlemen.

it's actually the most reasonable explanantion Allardyce picked him because Smith was his buy. He paid £6m for him and if he'd have left him out, he'd have been accused of buying a dud. Keegan picks him because he remembers the player he used to be at Leeds....if I'm being very harsh on the bloke.

With Ancelotti, Rikjaard and Schuster all allegedly under pressure too, Mourinho could maybe have the choice of either Milan, Inter, Barca or Real this summer.

I hear what you're saying but I still don't think they'll win it. Benitez certainly knows how to set up a team to win a one-off game and they'll be tough to beat but I'd fancy all 3 English teams left in it to knock them out if it comes down to brass tacks. I hope so. I wouldn't be able to stand it if Man Utd or Liverpool win it. Personally, I'd like to see either Barca or the Arsenal win it. Man U at a push... Anyone but Liverpool for me. Liverpool are my 8th choice to win it.
