It means something like "I wish to God Pat Jennings had never gone to Arsenal and that Thierry Henry had come to Spurs, and may the fleas of a thousand camels infest the armpits of all infidel Gooners."

Thanks for the translation DM, I`m impressed that one Thai word can mean so much
ps How did you know about my flea problem?

I am quite satisfied that Farcelona lost. Looks like I'll have to hope for Bayern Munchen to win the competition.

[BaaBaa.]

AC Milan showed the rest of Europe how to nullify the Barcelona attack who didn`t have a plan B.

Plan A is pretty bloody good tbf.

So Bayern hey, pretty good, top 3 side in Europe and next season with a dash of Pep.

Don't know what to make of the Wenger situation, I will say the Arsenal board are pretty f'ing quiet though.

Not to worry, they tell us there is plenty of money to spend next season, hang on, wasn`t that last year`s promise, and even the year before that.
Bring in the fat Russian and worry about the fair play rule when all the others do.

Manu v Real - great game.

It goes without saying the game changer was Nani's sending off. Lots off hufffing and puffing as a result and Sir Alex was naturally incensed, which was hysterical!

Have to say as a neutral it was nice to see a ref ignoring Fergies rules, I quite enjoyed that and I'm pretty certain Nani would have received a red card for that in the PL, not quite sure why he was selected in any case?

But the 2nd game changer was the immediate introduction of Modric and he dominated thereafter and scored a great goal. It may well be that his game is not suited to Spanish football, but it sure as hell is suited to ours.

As an afterthought, if saint Rio had done what he did in the face of the referee to a PL ref after the game tonight, he would have deservedly been shown a red card.

So, there it was, a great start by Utd, poor goal conceded by Real with absolutely terrible defending and for me, Real not getting enough players forward to threaten and Ronaldo, particularly ineffective, but guess who scored the winner?

But hopefully those in LOS will have been spared ITV's presenter, Adrian Chiles, or whatever the numpty's name is, he's well out of his depth and just irritating!

Well,you dont mind losing as long as its all fair and square but that decision to send off Nani was one of the worst I have seen in football.
It was a foul,yes....his foot was high,yes.....but absolutely no malicious intent....a booking at absolute worst !
It spoiled what was otherwise an enthralling encounter but there was only going to be one winner once United were down to 10 men.
And in the first half when Vidics header hit the post and Welbeck put the rebound straight at the keeper,his shirt was being pulled by Ramos hindering his movement.Is that not a penalty ?
Unfortunately in sport sometimes cheats win.....and I'm not talking about Real Madrid here.....good luck to them for the rest of the competition.

Welbeck was offside, it wouldn't have counted.

[hulltoon]

As much as i don't like Man utd, that was an injustice with Nani.That referee spoiled that game.

[Terry]

But maybe the 'special one' is lining himself up for Fergie's job.....
After all, there are some good politically correct words here http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21679307

Jose wont come to United.....he gets on very well with Fergie and is diplomatically saying what everybody already knows,that a corrupt kebab seller from Istanbul ruined last nights game for millions of viewers.
But if he doesnt come to United he wont come to Chelsea,also.He's very shrewd which team he picks and its always one in the ascendancy that needs a little bit of tinkering before becoming champions....as at Chelsea (before),Inter Milan and Real.
You certainly couldnt say Chelsea are a team in the ascendancy,at the moment.
Devastating news,I know,for caller who has been a lifelong Chelsea fan since 2003 but if Jose does come back to the Premiership it will be to Manchester City.
