Yeah, I should have done this, but I was there because of a business trip. I did meet quite friendly people and next I go there (I will go there, I loved it!) I will do as you have just suggested.

Happy De Gea I mean new year everyone.
Remember always feed the yak!

This January will be crazy.
The agent's been saying it for a couple of days. I hope he does a job for QPR, but I really have no interest in him being near the first team.
You mean Sunderland.
The mighty Sunderland. Under Martin O'Neill, whom I heard described on the tv yesterday as an "extremely charismatic" man.

Happy new Germany-will-win-the-Euro year 2012 =)
Verbatim - "involved right at the top part".
Notwithstanding the disgrace against Blackburn, we're there or thereabouts, which is all Ferguson said.

I bet city love us now.
Just watching Motd back and that really is shockingly poor from de gea, he's just too small as well look at Hanley next to him it was so easy for him. Fergie moaning about the penalty incident is priceless it really wasn't even close to being controversial.
Anyway those fireworks in London were ridiculous

That son of yours is adorable. I feel sorry for him, growing up as a Rovers fan won't be easy.

Masterfull trolling.
The Woody outfit is a nice touch though.
I disagree, England all the way,
(we wont get past the group stages)
OT5: Aroma Of Manchester, Chanel 5 - Sombody posted something like this earlier today/yesterday, though it was pretty good.

Dont sweat it at this rate we won't exist in a few years.
You guys have to let me enjoy the moment we don't get them often
Great win for you guys, well deserved also. Yakubu is a beast
Have a feeling that Blackburn will stay up this year, and Kean will still be there.
anyone know when the la liga's back?
I actually like Rovers. I don't have a second team or anything, but if I had, Rovers would be it. They were my second favorite team when I was younger and didn't know any better.

Cahill to Chelsea obviously
Bent to Liverpool hopefully
Lassana Diarra on loan to Liverpool unlikely
Tevez to Milan perhaps? Or will they wait till the summer?

good news, btw do Madrid play Barca if they both win their next cup games? wouldn't mind another El Clasico early in the year.
I can check local news for reports of tall men starting stupid arguments on New Year's Eve.
Played in their first game vs Napoli, so will be cup-tied for the Champions League/Europa League
Yup they do. The match would be between the 18th-20th of jan I think.
Sounds just up our street. We need some natural inconsistency on the right side to go with the rest of our attack.

Ya, happy new year.
Predictions:
- Germany will win the Euro. Someone else will help us with Spain though (they'll be lucky to win too).
- Dortmund will win the Bundesliga and cup, because Bayern will be too occupied with CL since they'll make it to the final...buut
- will lose to Madrid
- Man Utd. will manage to win EPL, while Hotspurs will beat City in the cup final.
- Juve will win in Italy, Napoli claims the cup
- Madrid: league, Barca: cup
Also I hate how the last pages of the theard became clutterd with nonsentsical Suarez discussions - it's not like there no football going on either. So obnoxious...

I just take a peak at the BBC gossip column every morning on top of the craic on Twitter.

Yes God forbid we talk about the report that FA released, now that we have been waiting for it for so long. It's not like we didn't talk about football while it was being played.
Wow, very bad 2012 for Barcelona eh?
regarding United - google Man utd all sources. Its pretty good with alot of club news info and newspaper talk too.

I sort of get the interest, but page after page after page...ugh. But I guess those scandals and all the dumb yellow press crap is a big part of the EPL appeal.
yeah elsk, I feel like barca will have a shitty season.

It's not really just a scandal or dumb yellow pages press crap though, it's one of liverpools most important players getting suspended for a long time because of racism. Of course that is going to be a big subject. It's easy to just scroll past it or ignore the thread for when news about it has just been released if you hate it that much.
