    Liverpool

    As we have seen under Unai, the difference an elite manager can make. Klopp is an elite manager. The trouble is there aren't too many managers about. So replacing him is not going to be easy. I think it might be a little bit like the post Ferguson scenario. Add that to losing their best player.
  2. This is where the old cliche is out to the test. Why wouldn't other fans not want English teams to do well.

    Unai Emery

    Quote on the BBC comments For Aston Villa it's an amazing night of European football For Unai Emery it's a Thursday
  4. That's excellent then. Whatever football insider says, the opposite happens
  5. Apparently there is only one type of frog that goes ribbit. And it's common in California. So that's the sound they use in all tv and movies.
  6. Yearly basis. I want English teams to do really well because I want us to be fighting for the top 5 spots every year. I also want unai to have the luxury of making the decision. Do I go for fourth or fifth knowing both qualify for CL , or do I risk 4th place and accept fifth with CL guaranteed and go all out for the cup.
  7. Especially if Matty Cash gets the winner. To be honest we want all English teams to go through. More games for our rivals next year so easier to get 5th place for CL
  8. I don't think City will ease up at all. Every player will want a European cup final place and apart from about 4 or 5 positions the rest are up for grabs.

    Unai Emery

    I've said this before. The lure of Barca or Spain might be great. The club I'm sure will do everything to keep him. But if he knows the fans love him that might not be the tipping point but it would help. I suggested a while back we could have some gofundme, without the club's knowledge, so if it comes off, he knows it's only from fans. I was thinking and if we can raise a grand, there is a vineyard Hiruzta winery in Hondaribbia in spain, his home town. Maybe contact them for a few cases of Casa Villa Unai. Perhaps with a claret and Blue label

    Unai Emery

    It's Unai as in Unai Not ebeining as in evening
  11. Most I ever win on the national was in the 70s. Mom phoned up from the hairdressers. I had to go down there and pick up all the bets from the women in there. It was there annual flutter. Dad said before I went, don't take it to the bookies put it all in your pocket. I did none of there horses won. So I cleaned up.
  12. Just checked the original legal precedent goes back to 1884. Four people from UK were lost at sea. When the cabin boy fell ill, two of the men killed him and they all began eating him.They were rescued a short while later. The 2 men who killed him but the third was not prosecuted.
  13. Cannibalism is legal in the uk, as it is in many parts of the world. There are laws about procuring and consent but not the eating. This comes down to the Uruguayan rugby team plane crash. In that situation nobody broke the law.
  14. Ignoring laverkusen for a minute, I'll come back to them. If we and Liverpool win tonight, then arsenal and man city win next week, we have it. We currently have 132 points divided by 8 original teams teams giving us a coefficient of 16.5 If plop and us win tonight, not the overall the just tonight that gives us four extra points. If the arse and city both win they get an extra 2 points each for the win plus an extra one point for round progression. So our 132 points are now 142. Making the coefficient 142/8 = 17.75. However seeing as arsenal and man city will play in the semi final whichever way it falls we get 5 points. So now the equation is 147/8 = 18.35. Back to laverkusen. With bayern and Dortmund out only laverkusen can collect points the maximum they can collect by winning every leg and the final and found progression is 12 points. Germany currently sit on 115. 5 / 7 = 16.5 Add on the 12 becomes 127.5 /7= 18.21 Which is below the 18.35 for us. One thing if both arsenal and man city win on pens, then it would require three points from us or liverpool. A win for Liverpool in the second leg would do it on its own as they get progression points.
  15. On this subject. As long as I have watched football, at corners the ball always sat in the quadrant. Now they always seem to be outside overhanging in. Can it really make that much of a difference.
  16. Poor from England that. She's the best striker.
  17. Another thing that cheered me up was knowing that when I posted my little piece on pronouns @mjmooney would be the first to comment.
  18. One thing that has cheered me up in the discourse on transgender is, loads of idiots will finally understand what a pronoun is.
  19. The parents of a school shooter have both been sentenced to 10 years. Enough evidence to show they ignored all the warning signs and even bought the gun Ethan Crumbley: Parents of Michigan school gunman sentenced to at least 10 years https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-68773119
  20. We need to be certain of 5 places as soon as possible. I want unai to have the option to rest players against palace of even Liverpool to go to our cup final.
  21. I think a big one is Athletico v Dortmund tomorrow. If Athletico win, I would back either arsenal or man city to go further than bayern, and us an pool to go further than laverkusen
  22. Never learn not to love was a 1962 single for the beach boys. The b side was a track called Never learn not to love. It's original title was cease to exist. It was written by Charles Manson.
  23. The guy who was my doctor, who I have to see on quite a regular basis, has changed position. Great guy. He used to wear light blue scrubs. Now he is my advanced clinical practioner. The only thing that has changed are the colour of his scrubs. They are now Claret top and light blue trousers.
