When was the last time we qualified with a game to spare?
-
Just read about it in a norwegian online newspaper, here.
No-idea who it is, but they say he is one of ManU's biggest talents, and is already playing for his country. The repported rape took place in a fivestar London hotell saturday night.
Very strange that I can't find anything on the story either on skysports or bbc.
Probably a media black-out due to libel laws...

It's too much to ask for us to have 2 decent games in succession.
Rovers 0-3 WBA
-
When was the last time we scored direct from a free-kick?
-
Either Rovers 3-0 Geordies & Souness gets sacked straight after, or we'll lose 3-0 & Hughes is sacked...
-
We'll lose 3-0
-
It's not just them who's to blame...

Another draw (1-1) & another red card: I think Savage is overdue...

Staff say Stockwell Tube shooting was caught on camera
STAFF at Stockwell Underground station have protested at police suggestions that closed-circuit television cameras were not working when an innocent man was killed by police hunting potential suicide bombers.
Senior officers are reported to have told the independent investigation into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes that they had no footage from inside the carriage or from on the platform because all five cameras were not working.
But the Tube workers have challenged the police claim, allegedly telling investigators from the Independent Police Complaints Commission that three out of the four cameras covering the platform were definitely working on the morning of July 22.
Staff say that they do not know why the camera inside the carriage would not have filmed the moments when the Brazilian electrician was shot dead by armed police.
Scotland Yard declined to answer questions, saying that the matter was in the hands of the IPCC. The first officers on the scene after Mr de Menezes was shot took away all CCTV tapes but allegedly found them blank. Station staff decided to break the confidentiality of what they told the IPCC because they fear they are being blamed for failing to maintain the cameras.
A London Underground spokesman said: “Everything now has to go to the IPCC.” However, one senior Tube official said: “What are the realistic odds of five cameras — four on the platform, one in the carriage — all being on the blink?”
Hmm... Tube staff say the cameras were working fine, but once the films gets into the Met's hands the film become blank...
More from the Independent:
According to a report he would have passed eight cameras, two in the station entrance pointing at the barriers, another aimed at the Northern Line escalator and another on the way down.
When Mr de Menezes reached the bottom of the escalator, another camera would have captured him. And as he turned on to the platform one above the track and three more at each end of the platform would have caught him on film, the reports say.
All Northern Line Tube trains are equipped with CCTV - at either end of the carriages, but the only photograph published of the incident seems to have been taken from a doorway.

Home Office's secret policy of targeting young Brazilians
Immigration officials have been carrying out a secret policy of barring young Brazilians from entering Britain, after a tip-off that gangs of people traffickers were smuggling them in to work in the black economy.
I think the Met Police took "target" the wrong way....

I remember the good old days when Spuds' 2nd kit was the yellow...
I'll take a draw: 1-1. Hopefully Jansen'll be back, on the sub's bench at least
-
Nice, sunny day.
Guess people don't wanna waste this sort of weather at a footy game...
We win!

Neil hits the bar, from edge of box, ball bounces down & keeper gets it .
How Football365 describe it:
1641: At Ewood Park Lucal Neill has hit the underside of the bar for Bloackburnh, who still lead Fulham 2-1.

Rovers 2-1
Tugay volley from a MGP corner
Just realised... Radio Rovers t'internet commentary is behind Sky Sports News by about 5-10 seconds
-
Sky Sports News said in off the bar.
Counter-attack. Tugay & Savage linked up, Kuqi crossed & MGP buried it from 12 yards
-
Rovers 1-0
Pedersen

Injury report for Fulham vs Blackburn:
Rovers Players very doubtful for the match:
Nelson
Rovers players with a late fitness test:
Bellamy
Jansen
Source: physioroom.com
Not as bad as it could be then...
Still expecting 'em to fail the tests, or get injured in the 1st half if they play

If we play like yesterday's 2nd half: Rovers 0-3 Fulham & Hughes gets a vote of confidence.
If we play well: Rovers 2-1 Fulham
Just hope Nelsen is fit

Football365's Premiership Predictions 2005/06
Which Blackburn player will be sent off first?
PG: Andy Todd.
SW: Lucas Neill. For trading blows with Savage in the opening game.
PC: Robbie Savage.
JN: Craig Bellamy. For pulling really ugly faces (which will be a new FA law brought in specifically for Bellers).
TK: Aaron Mokoena - he'll kick Craig Bellamy.
They're all wrong!
At least there's some good from todays result!
-
That's it, season's over after 1 game - relegation here we come! Aiming for 17th...
If we can't beat the Hammers, who can we defeat?
We were so comfortable in the 1st half... how can we just fall apart like that?
Listened to the game on Radio 5, Kuqi seemed decent & don't understand why Hughes took him off.
I missed their equaliser - what happened?
Don't think we'll be seeing much of Dickov by the sounds of it - what the hell was he doing diving in 2-footed? Let's hope that Jansen comes back from injury soon.

Greece are automatically top seeds as they won Euro 2004.
Czech Rep got 22 pt from 8 qualifying games for Euro 2004, which must out-weigh the fact that they are only in the play-offs for thw World Cup
