Roma again

Possibly good news on the pitch, but not good news for those who fancied a Euro away that week

Possibly because it depends on which United turn up and the tactics of course

I don't think anybody could have foreseen him getting into the first team after his operation this season. Kuszczak must be pretty upset with himself for getting sent off last week.

It really would be a massive bonus to have a fit Gary Neville for the final stages of the season. I would be more confident of our chances in both the league and in Europe with him at right back.

Is this the end of the hedge fund asks the Independent as CCC goes kerplonk

I doubt it is the end, but if it is, it is just a pity in didn't happen in 2005 before those Florida based numpties secured control of our club. I haven't read anything anywhere about how the credit crunch is affecting them . Gillet has come out and said the tumbling dollar has made his plans for Liverpool too expensive. I don't think that applies to the Glazers, but things can't be be too good for them. My only worry is when they eventually bail out we will be bought out by some corrupt anti democratic joker from anywhere east of Poland. They will probably be the only suitors able to totally buy out the club. Game 39 would be just a matter of time then.

I would have thought they would have waited for a time closer to the Olympics

The Pixies are definitely one of my all time favourite groups, i saw them at the move festival at Lancashire CCC a few years back when they co headlined with the Stereophonics and completely blew the Welsh band away.
