He actually said to win things you needed both luck and ability - that is praise for Rafa when it comes from him! Disagree re Redknapp, IMO he too was positive and a lot of people on hear have said the same re Rafa and our league performances. Next time I hear Keys saying that "If Torres had played more games" etc etc I am calling sky - he has only failed to feature in THREE league ganes this season - they do spout s****!!!

Lets take the 2 parts of this discussion separately. Shoot me for this but Slur was right they were denide a blatant penalty - I always judge penalties by the fact would I have been pissed off if we hadn't been awarded it and in this case I was - just like we should have had one on Saturday before our first goal. Secondly - slur should have kept his gob shut until the following day and deserves an FA charge - but, lets be honest refs are getting worse. As an aside, Utd have kicked sides off the park (think Neville on Reyes) more often than they have been kicked off the pitch so the stuff about Ronaldo being scared is pathetic. He should have faced Souness in destroyer mode - then he would have been scared.

So you and Kev are still confident RP - but what are you actually confident of????

It is one pot - completely random - not 2 pots!

they will also do the semi final draw at the same time

True and AC lost on Tuesday.......

PLTBT PLTBT. On another note - is it any coincidence that just as it looks like we will be taken over (again) - Mourinho opens his mouth saying he would like "to kill Chelsea"? Angling for a job potentially me thinks!

Are you still confident?

Neither do I and it won't happen - I was just explaining the Maths that is all.

Reina 10 Arbeloa 10 Carra 10 Skrtel 10 Riise 10 Alonso 10 Masch 10 Babel 10 Gerrard 10 Kuyt 10 Torres 10 MOM

Well if he only bought 1% of his shares that would actually only equate to 0.5% equity in the club so he needs to buy 2% of GG's shares to buy a full 1% in the club - does that help?

How confident are people this will happen now - RP/Snorky are you both still confident?

Did he - not spent a penny himself has he?

My thoughts exactly - to borrow an americanism, I feel we are now approaching the end game!

No way would Hicks let someone else leak that - the fat tw*t will want to say it himself.

I think if there has been no statement by the Texan gob before 4pm GMT we can start to believe that DIC taking over shortly is a possibility. This is purely my opinion, no more no less, but he has tended to issue prompt denials in the past - even if a lot of these have subsequently been shown to be cr*p!!!!

I'll tend to differ then - would rather he did think that way and would be shocked if Rafa did not too

You mean the ones which actually made a lot of sense and Rafa has endorsed today?

Did anyone hear what Rogan Taylor had to say on 5 Live this morning - only caught the end of the Interview

...and fat Frank is alresdy sulking about it - there is actually an article about it near this one.

Yes, tell me it ain't so? I made an error of judgement on the subheading - would amend it if I could - didn't realise that I was the first person to ever make a mistake Des?

Ok, wrong choice of words, but the implication is there re the "main players"

Carra speaks to the Guardian on selection Sounds like a few senior players have had a say!

The first wasn't - the second was - he had already been warned after 2 OTHER dodgy tackles!

Kewell signing was on here 3 weeks before it happened - the papers still had him going to Utd, Chelski or Arsenal
