Tonight's so unpredictable I just don't think it's worth lumping on, especially as I'd have to replenish my account after what was a torrid weekend.
Bookie on the radio was just saying the same. Said that big games like this attract very little in terms of stakes cos people don't want to commit a serious amount. Makes sense.

As charming as ever.

I had no idea Ashley Williams is 28. Would love him at Liverpool, but he didn't get on with Suarez too well from what I remember. I support that won't be too much of a problem when Suarez is at Bayern :(

Why do people keep saying that?

Anyway hoping Madrid wins tonight. Anyone knows what channel the game will be on?
 
Tonight's game is only a round of 16 tie, a win for either team would be a fairly small step towards winning the competition. Although I suppose it would be a massive confidence boost.

I'm not even nervous so that means ManU will hammer us tonight :(
Heh i'm not really nervous either. Maybe when the teams get announced and I see Giggs in CM..then I'll be shitting it.

Each game is like a Final from this point on.

MUTV (ITV).

Tyldesley to make mention of 1966 and that night in 1999 at the Nou Camp at least 3 times before the end of the first half.

Remember when Clive Tyldesley openly supported Crawley Town against United in that FA Cup game.

What a wazzock he is.

Anyone read the "Geek Love" thread in OT? I knew exactly what I'd be getting into - one dude puts himself out there, puts a face to a name and then a bunch of people dogpile on him for being awkward and nerdy, including a guy with a k-pop avatar :lol

Anyway, 2-2 draw, Real goes through.

Pato: "playing without the crowd is like having sex without a condom. You need to stay focused."

Well, I guess he's really scared about Berlusconi becoming his father-in-law. Dat focus.

Conte: "we don't want to end up like Milan last year. They had a seven point lead, yet they lost the Scudetto. Galliani says that we'll win it? Well, deep down he's a Juventus supporter."

Edit: last post of the page. Of course.

Who is Pato?

That's true.
