Things you'd like like to see happen this year

PHB

In order for me

1. United winning the league
2. Liverpool being closer to Villa than Chelsea (as there is money in it)
3. Newcastle getting relegated
4. Everton/Villa coming 4th
5. Reading staying up

There's also the extremely unrealistic funny scenario of,
United drawing Chelsea in the semis, one of them winning, and a randomer getting a UEFA Cup spot. Liverpool finish 6th, after Villa and Everton, then have to enter the Inter-Toto :P

Xavi6

1. Chelsea/Arsenal to win the league
2. Anyone but United to win the FA Cup
3. A non-English team to win the Champions League
4. Newcastle to go down
5. City to get any European spot
6. Everton to finish 4th
7. City to spend a hundred million in the summer on big signings
8. Shels to get back in the Premier
9. Spain to win the Euros
10.Ronaldo to feck off to Madrid

kinaldo

1. Newcastle annoying everyone by staying up and then spending loads of money in the summer to start the good times rolling again.
2. Arsenal winning the Premiership.
3. Bad fortunes for all teams based in Manchester and London (except Arsenal).
4. Spain winning Euro 2008
5. Real Madrid winning the CL again.

Mr.Nice Guy

Tut tut where's the patriotism lads? Things I'd like to see:

1. Trappa to get Ireland off to a 100% record in our World Cup group.
2. Man Utd to win the treble.
3. Fergie to sign Berbatov.
4. Gallas to cry on the pitch after Utd beat them at OT.
5. Keano to keep Sunderland up.
6. Everton to finish 4th.
7. Benitez to stay at L'Pool so they can fail again in the League next season.
8. Some memorable one-liners from Eamon Dunphy and co.
9. Enjoyable football at Euro 2008.
10. Jose Mourinho to return to management (preferably the PL). I miss the guy...

chopperbyrne

1. The Stadium in Tallaght to be finished.

6. West Brom to get automatic promotion.
7. Germany to win the Euros.
8. Dustin to win eurovision

Newky won't be relegated this season, I'm certain of it.

I hope Sunderland go down screaming, preferably on the last day of the season, by one goal difference.

Won't be finished this year, but will be close, I'd say Rovers will play some games there in the '09 season, maybe.

chopperbyrne wrote: »

My christ no.

I hope Reading stay in the PL, and spend some money this time.

I hope there are no asterisks on either division of the eL this season.

I hope attendances grow in the eL.

I hope at least one eL team has a decent euro run.

lpool2k05

1.Arsenal/Chelsea to win league
2.Man Utd to finish 3rd
3.Everton to finish 6th(intertoto cup)
4.Liverpool to win champions league again beating Utd in final with a last minute Gary Neville OG
5.Reading to get relegated.

therecklessone

1. ManYoo to win the League
2. Arsenal to win nothing.
3. Gallas to throw a strop, quit the game and move into a caravan in Morecambe.
4. Adebayor and Bendter to get in another scrap, killing each other in the process.
5. Fabregas to suffer sympathy pains for Eduardo and miss the next nine months.
6. The Death Star to burn down.
7. Everton to finish 4th, Moyes to win manager of the year.
8. Don't need Toon to go down, but whatever helps Keegan disintegrate on TV works for me.

Dubit10

No No hold on.For Rio "gangster" ferdinand to score a last minute OG against liverpool in the champs league final and for everton to finish forth in the league:) Now that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. Although it would be nice to see it go to penaltys and see wayne "mars bar" rooney blast the last penalty high and wide at 5-4 to liverpool.

Yep
I'd love to see Liverpool fans realising their glory days are gone and their premier league record is an embarrassment :rolleyes:

I'd like to see United win the Champion's League this year and buy Benzema in the summer
I'd also love to see Ronaldo back playing before the year is out

Mr Alan

lads, i advise you read the first few posts of this thread, which were from Utd fans.

nothing wrong with wishing bad things on your rivals.

edit: our league record is the best in England ya nut. CL final last year, won in 2005. glory days in the past hey?!

astrofool

Well, 1 single glory 45 minutes in 18 years

Anyway, I'd be interested in seeing what it takes to push Gallas over the edge this season, I think he'll put Keegan to shame when it happens.

Ah wait a second...The Uefa Cup victory in 2001 and subsequent "treble" [:rolleyes: not as good a treble] was an achievement!

Also FA Cup champions 2 years ago in a classic with WHU.

something tells me that UTD's record in the league Premier Leagus is a lot better than Liverpools's hence the whole Liverpool not having won the league since 89/90 and united winning it 9 of the last 15 times

fair enough liverpool have 2 more titles overall but this is were the "league glory days" statement comes in

Mr Alan

League and Premier and League = same thing.

Liverpools record is better *yawn*

Heisenberg.

I didn't refuse to admit anything. I merely replied with an equally petty and juvenile comment
p.s. I am not your mate

Xavi6

Jaysus lads put the handbags away.

Look let's all just hope United and 'pool win nothing and finish third and sixth repectively

A thread on boards to not turn into a bitter "United vs Liverpool" bitch fight where evryone reminds everyone of "their" records and history as if they had some direct involvement in this....yawn.

Or just in general for football fans to say "their" instead of "our" when talkin about their favourite team.


- United to win the treble.
- Arsenal to finish second.
- Eduardo to play again before 2009 - wishing ANY player, rival or otherwise, to have their career ended is pathetic and says a lot about anyone who says it.
- Everton to finish 4th.
- Ireland to bring back the days when international football was actually interesting to watch.
- Derby, Bolton and Boro to get relegated.
- Euro 2008 to deliver an exciting tournament.

Obni

Bolton to remain the most unfashionable team in the premiership.

I suppose you're right and I retract my earlier comment about Gary Neville. I suppose it would be quite nice to see him lose another couple of derbys next season

Thats it, its cool to hate players, sure I usent to be the biggest fan of Mr Neville myself!! :eek::eek:

I just think its pretty sad really if you're sittin at home hopin anyones career ends/so and so breaks their leg etc etc.


Jesus if Neville plays in the derby again he has a lot of makin up to do (assists for Goater, sent off for actin like a spoilt child etc etc:D)

Vokes

The Czechs to get kicked out of Euro 2008 (for financial irregularities or something). And then Il Trap to lead us to Euro glory :cool:

gracehopper

-Rafa to stay at liverpool and meander along in mediocracy for years.

-Everton to become the biggest club on merseyside

-Wenger to buy new glasses in specsavers.

-Fabregas to step out of the "so much maturity for a player so young" category and become the next platini.

-United to play liverpool in China for the 39th game of the season and Gary neville to score the winner and have no one but a load of dong's cousins staring at him.

eZe^

If Baca dont win the CL then,

-Seville to win the CL
-La Liga to be decided on May 7th at the Bernabeu
-Ronnie get back to his best
-Messi to show he's the best in the world
-Spain to at least bloody partake in Euro 08 =P
-Arsenal to win the PL

FIFA would probably make a merit and guts based decision, rewarding passion and overuling points, and give Cyprus our place :eek:

Anyway

1- Trappa to kick off with wins in a (by the end of 2009) successful WC qualification
2- The pool to win the CL
3- The pool to beat Man U at sometime in the next few weeks or, preferably, in the final itself.

On penalties. To piss PHB off

4- Liverpool to come from a goal down (courtesy of a Ronaldo dive/peno) to equalise in the dying seconds of the 93rd and take them out.
5- Capello to lose all his Autumn/Winter games and be knee deep by late November (the confidence before he even played a match was already over the top)
6- Mourhino back
7- Sven and Martin O`Neill to end up 5th/6th, least they deserve (in truth one probably deserves no.4 but it would involve dislodging the pool)
8- Arsenal to edge Man U out for the prem
9- Birmingham to go down. I like McFadden but Alex McLeish is a traitor to his own country and I hope he gets sacked.
10- Shay Given to bring his skill to a decent club (which is unlikely, hes apparently out until September, which will make the Trappa friendlies interesting/worrying in terms of how we cope)
