Were Arsenal relegated today? I was passing through Kings Cross Underground after the match had finished and could tell by the glum faces on the replica kit wearing hordes they must have lost today and been relegated. Really felt for them.
Yes they have been relegated from Champions League.

I managed top 30 in the H&V fantasy league which I'm happy with.

The Curse of Thursday Nights be upon them, and may they be forever fucked by fatigue.

Well all three sides coming down looked miserably Villa-esque today. All three hammered and none of them looking right now a major threat to go straight back up. Not dismissing the fact that we have to look after our own business of course and we have our demons to overcome.

but even Blunderland accumulated more points - what a fixture that's going to be next season ; the clash of the antediluvian titans Steve and Dave!

Europa League Final

I'm pretty certain I'm in the minority but I always will support an English club in Europe and will be hoping United win on Wednesday.

I know there is a large 'Anybody but United' club, which has probably increased further this season with the antics of Jose the forever moaning one.

Ajax. Why would I support a club I detest just because they happen to come from the same island as me? Should I support Birmingham City when they are playing teams from different regions?

Yes. When Chelsea won vs Bayern, I didn't give a toss that they were an English* team. Hopig that another team wins so they can shove it down your throat, no thanks.

* Foreign owner, manager and mostly team...so not that English

Changing topic, I've only just noticed that Aaron Hughes is playing for Hearts. I thought he'd retired.

Bollocks to em. Nothing would please me more than seeing some of those close-ups of teary eyed united fans as Ajax lift the trophy.

Ajax for me too.  Jose has managed to make Yernited even more arrogant than they ever were under Fergie.  All that nonsense about having to play league games when they were too tired boils my piss.  Fuck 'em.

Avoiding the Premier League as I do meant that I didn't discover the sickening, fawning, sycophantic bollocks for John Terry until I read the paper this morning.

How the fuck was that shit allowed? If you want to do a guard of honour for the racist thug then do it before or after the game.

Stopping it for a stage managed substitution? Fucking hell.

I'd love it if Ajax beat them, love it.
