I'm sure he won't lose any sleep over it!

[kaosmark2]

And Everton's is probably lower than Newcastle's!

Huh. Assuming that's an accurate source the article I read must have been wrong then.

[pink_triangle]

That's the thing, is that an accurate source or is the one you read the correct one?! Either way Pardew has done a crap job this season!!

I think it might be us now. Villa get one more win, Wigan win twice, we get a draw if that. The goal difference shift over this weekend may just have fucked us.

[thetime]

I've just completed the predictor on the BBC website. On 37 games I've got us joint on 38 points with Wigan and Villa (who play each other). We're dooooomed!

[kaosmark2]

Without sounding a git I hope your right.

[kaosmark2]

The excitement and quality of the attacks in this 0-0 would mean a lot more if this game had a real chance of mattering.

[lharris92]

if madrid had scored early would have been game on.... amount of misses/wasted chances is bizarre.

[kaosmark2]

Since I said that it's got duller though.

And yeah, there's been a lot of missed chances for teams of this quality. I wonder who'd have predicted 0-0 at the start of the night! Everyone I know thought 3-1/3-2 to Real.

[kaosmark2]

I say that and then Madrid score

[TheGayTent]

Who cares, Dortmund are through. Hope they win the final now

[The Nal]

Journalistic excellence again from ITV last night. World exclusive and they cut themselves off! And were very rude to Mourinho.

Great to see Dortmund get to the final! Hope they win it, good to see a club that seems to be run sensibly taking on the big boys of Europe. (Wonder what rule they will bring in next year, to stop a team like Dortmund having a shot then.. )

It has happened before, tis the joy of a cup competition. Get a bit of luck and with a well drilled team can go places!

[pink_triangle]

The Champions League is formatted to make an upset practically impossible. I hate it. Bring back a proper cup, 2 legs per round!

[Kyelo]

Since 2000 so that's 26 possible final spots there have been 15 different teams in them, not that bad!
