Aren't these the ones that won the most boring European Cup Final in the history of football?

Indeed, though our very own PeterParker would disagree.

Anyhow, looking forward to welcoming you all to Bucharest!
Roberto Mancini was the man who brought us our first trophy in 35 years. He was the man that brought us our first league title in 44 years. He brought us one of the greatest moments of our lives. He masterminded a 6-1 win at Old Trafford, and a Wembley win over United. He challenged Ferguson, he argued with him on the touchline, he brought success, and he punched the air in delight with the rest of us at the madness of it all. He had style, panache and a winning smile.All those memories he gave us will never be forgotten, in a wonderful period in this club’s long history.
And I swear, we’ll never see anything like it again.

What's Txiki Begiristain doing out there for a bit of a jolly? Should be here getting rid of some of our 100-man squad, or buying a centre back!

very good draw (tbh, had little concerns that UEFA could have willing to make it hard and risk Pep Guardiola's Manchester City out of show biz).

I'm particularly very glad that our highly respected Spiderman gets his deserved reward and is gonna attend City live on CL stage, at his hometown.

exciting times ahead... :-)

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...


In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!

Actually I won't.

A principle I have, I will not attended a local game until our football will be clear of criminals. Plus, I refuse to put any money in that club of thievs and bastards.

Pleased with that. If we're not able to get past a team like Steaua, early season, new manager, new team, new tactics or not, we would deserve to be in the EL. Hopefully we can pick up the couple of extra coefficient points on offer and, sweet justice, Steaua go into the rags EL group and take points off them.

Ok. Think home would be preferable but an away goal or two will be always welcome. Just have to make sure we keep focus and don't get caught cold

Thanks. It will be all vision and no sound so. With the volume turned down.
