"Christmas day, eating our turkey, we were top of the league. A few days later we're fifth"

ABU's like tOuz and others would have no purpose in life if they didn't have my team, Man United to pick on and try to ridicule...

Just as well for them that there'll always be a top-notch English Premier League team known as Manchester United to set the pace for others to follow ....

What do you think ... ?

Cheers.

News came through that former England and Manchester United player, Brian Greenhoff had passed away at his home. He was 60 years old.

Our condolences to his wife, family and friends.

I recently tried to express my condolences to the family of Brian Greenhoff, a former England international and Manchester United player.

My posting was reported ... I don't know why, and was deleted.

All I wanted to do was bring your attention to the sad loss of another great footballer who has died, and honour his memory.

How can we honour these former players without getting our postings reported & deleted?

Await your thoughts .....

It's being reported that according to Sky Sports News, Liverpool agreed to sell the player to the fellow English Premier League club after he spent the year there on loan: looks Andy got his wish and will be allowed to stay at Hammers.

How do you feel about this ?

Await your thoughts .....

Bleacher Report revealed the new strip online -

I think that it looks pretty good ... what do you think ?

The media published the following today regarding the Hatters .....

"Stockport County boss Ian Bogie admits managing expectations rather than players might be his biggest task next season.

The Hatters are preparing for life in Conference North knowing they are undoubtedly the highest profile club to have figured in English football’s sixth tier.

With that comes the belief that, on name alone, the Hatters should storm to immediate promotion."

Simon Johnson and Tom Collomosse of the London Evening Standard reported the news of the 23-year-old's deal:

Standard Sport understands the Wales international...has committed his future to the club with a £130,000-a-week deal and will remain at White Hart Lane next season.

It is believed, though, that the Welshman is likely to be allowed to leave in 12 months’ time should an enormous bid — in excess of £50 million — come in for him.

What are your thoughts ?

It is published all around the world and has been going for over sixty years.

It looked like we had it in the bag (so to speak), but the Baggies refused to give in.

Congratulations to them for a great fight-back.

However, nothing can dim the brilliant career of the English football's greatest manager, SAF.

Rumour has it that Fernando found form at last in the final game of the season?

Can someone please fill us in with the details ??

He has secured his favourite spot on the ladder for Arsenal, giving them entry again into the lucrative European football market.

I say, "Well done, Arsenal on finishing fourth!"

The Ghost who Walks has been a favourite of millions for decades, but is he still popular today with comic readers?

Can we really trust the news media when it comes to Wayne's future?

Despite a newspaper article to the contrary, it seems that rumours that he was going to Newcastle have quickly been quashed.

While Bayern Munich has denied all interest in an "aging" Rooney (h/t The Independent), there are others who have been linked to his services.

Among those clubs include La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid, who are said to be in secret talks with United about a Rooney-Cristiano Ronaldo reunion (h/t Express News), and fellow EPL squad Arsenal, after manager Arsene Wegner did not rule out his club making a bid for the disgruntled United star (via Express News).

No transfer in world football has inspired so much debate in recent years as Robin van Persie's move to Manchester United last summer.

The forward was yet another player heavily criticised by many Arsenal fans for chasing the paper and a perceived lack of loyalty, despite him claiming the move was in the quest of trophies (via Goal.com).

Many Gunners fans also criticised the London club for selling one of the side's best players to their fierce Premier League rivals.

In a sub-plot, the transfer effectively doomed Manchester City's manager Roberto Mancini, who feuded with club officials for their inability to sign van Persie.

If Arsenal could wind back the clock, would they agree to the transfer again?

No offence to Brian Kidd, but he's really not in the same league as Roberto Mancini.

This shows the contempt that the management hold their football team in - they should have left Mancini in the position until the end of the season, regardless of media speculation & other excuses

What do you think ?

Wigan have not been an easy opponent for the Citizens in the first half.

I watched the game and there was no doubt that Michu was deserving of a penalty when he was slugged by a wild-tackling City player.

If Swansea had been awarded a penalty, they could have go on to win the match.

What do you think ?

Was it that your opponents were so good that you could only get an early goal against them before they had settled into play .... or was it that Arsenal were lucky not to have drawn or even lost to the bottom club?

Why couldn't Arsenal dominate the game ?

Await your thoughts ...

Newcastle go the Upton Park tomorrow to take on Hammers on their own turf.

Can they get a win or what will the score be?

Await your thoughts ....
