Neil

Couldn't resist a look on that mindfuck of a forum. It is with a stout heart and proud disposition that we allow Mr O'Neill to take us within his thrall. That our entire ethos and ideology can be summoned by such a newcomer should warm the cockles of all favourable to the mackem nation. The despair of late goals at the hands of our enemies and of yet more 'honest mistakes' from our 'even handed' masters in the black shirts has been juxtaposed with the delirious heights of the defeats of giants and the dawn of new heroes. For they are one and have been intertwinned since the glorious birth of mackemdom. That we are a club who shun the grey middling conformity of the Thatcherite mag, and aim for the stars or the sewers, for ours is a quest that can only be seen in absolute terms. Either we prevail and stand proudly a top our enemies corpses, or we sink with our cause into nothingness. For we aspire, that is what seperates us from the mag. We dream and we believe. In the the man we currently entrust to safeguard our institution we have a fellow dreamer. Maybe he can make our dreams come true too.

Remember last year I'd had a shit day of betting, was about £30 down (which is a decent amount for me). Put £1 on an assortment of South American fixtures I had little to no knowledge of and won the best part of £100. Yet I still seem to insist logic/form dictates betting winnings.

First and last time I think betting against Barcelona is a good idea.

One time I don't put on a lot of domestic midweek games, it's all going to form and exactly what I would've had. Twats.

Robinho's finishing is generally an atrocity.

Even my bet's alive at HT.

58 I think.

Reminds me of checking the scores on Ceefax.

It had been in a while since I'd seen him do something shite, it was inevitable sooner or later.

Great stuff, now we have a game.

Has to be said - FM stalwart.

Pato not on the bench? Sure AC Jimbo said he was back on Football Weekly. Aye, he is.

Hope Milan score soon, spice things up.

Yet another La Masia product. Unsurprisingly, he looks good. Bit unfair really.

Chelsea or Benfica.

Reckon they'll get past RM like?

Bayern 1-0 too.

Such a brilliant player. How old's he now? Still goes round bossing games.

Tiresome as fuck. I can't help but like Barca for the football they put on hence I'd certainly prefer them to win; but every big Barcelona game seems to end in one half (actually, most) of the forum saying "yeah yeah they're mint" and one side going "nah they're not that good". Gets very boring IMO.

Lovely.

Milan +2 Brentford L Orient/H'field over 2.5 goals.

This. Considering the amount of money I've plunged into bet365 and Skybet over recent months, the least they can do is give me a few free bets I can lose.

Can see the pro-Barca/anti-Barca feelings sprouting to the surface once more tonight.

Bit of rain and the bookies get scared. Pussies.
