Fulham seem to have the easiest route to the final I bet Oldham Rhino is fuming

I was only fishing before. Seems I've had a nibble

But I'd rather have Fulham's draw than Liverpool's lol

Couldn't really have gone worse that. Definately the hardest side of the draw although as my mate's just texted me: "at least we can pretend we're in the CL with that draw"

Really wanted Valencia or Atletico in the final as a return for Rafa or Nando. At least if we get past Benfica one of them will be happy.

Yes, I am sure they will be delighted to perform at the highest levels of the consolation cup.

However, maybe Benitez can drop off some of his Spanish duds on the way home.

Pleased with the Utd draw although the Munich tie will be a tough one if Robben and Ribery are firing for them.

The Arsenal/Barca tie should be entertaining also.

Re: More football chat : Fri Mar 19, 2010 2:23 pm  

Arsenal and Barca is mouth watering lets hope they don't cancel each other out

Re: More football chat : Fri Mar 19, 2010 2:48 pm  

Glad we avoided CSKA so we don't have a shed load of travelling around the Chelsea game.

I'm glad our second leg will be at Old Trafford, should make us favourites to progress. If we get to the final, I reckon we'll end up playing Inter.

The good thing about the final been on the Saturday is that it's after I've finished my exams so will be able to have a nice weekend away if we get there.

United fans might as well book plane tickets now.

Why do they always get the easy draw ffs

They are the Golden Boys of UEFA.

Barca v Lyon final for me.

I have this nagging doubt that Manchester United will get knocked out by bayern Munich

Catalans vs Salford is the big game of that weekend.
