QUOTE - I object to your accusation of double standards, that's a bit rude. Anyway, we've had this discussion before ... I don't have to support Norwich just because I live here. My dad was from Suffolk and was an Ipswich fan, so Norwich were never number one in our house. My boyhood heroes were Peter Osgood and Peter Bonetti, so I have been supporting Chelsea for nearly 40yrs. The Boy Wonder can support whoever he likes .... even the Gunners! - QUOTE


QUOTE - Yes, but he 'allowed' me to support who I wanted, and we went together to nearly every Norwich home match for about eight years. I am afraid I have no truck with die hard 'every other team are crap except us' supporters, except if the other team is ManUSA.. - QUOTE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tantrum? What tantrum? If you are referring to the above posts from another thread I see no evidence of a tantrum, simply responses to earlier posts accompanied by a jolly thumbs up, a big laugh and a humourous nod to your love of the Gunners and nearly everyone's loathing of ManUSA.

Bats.

ps - if Gotham City are as bad as LA Galaxy I think we'll give them a wide berth

When I was on holiday I went to Newcastle and the football talk in one of the pubs was all about them 'deserving' Champions League football as if they had a divine right to be successful. It was so sad ..... after a glass of OJ and a plate of grub for the boy we were off.

My next door neighbour is a Spurs fan and he's just as bad .... at least when Chelski were crap we knew they were crap!

They're both very similar; haven't won a major competition in decades but have some pretension to being a European giant. I thought Spurs may have closed up but they appear to have spent money reinforcing an attack the was already solid - and now have shortcomings in midfield. Newcastle will be more dogged (Dogs of War) under Big Sam but will probably lack the finesse to go from top 7 to top 4.


Always had a soft spot for Spuds as my late dad supported them. He never lived there but was a Greaves nut.

So did my dad ... he knew Maurice Norman, the great Spurs full-back of the post war years.

Did you think so? I can see all 4 English team topping their group - Celtic might scrape 2nd but I can't see Rangers making the cut.

Porto are strong and Besiktas away wont be easy for Liverpool. Chelsea usually make hard work of it against Spanish teams and Schalke looked pretty good last year. ManU have Roma and Lisbon, neither of whom are gonna be pushovers, and they have a trip to Eastern Europe. I think Arsenal may have the trickiest one ... two trips to Eastern Europe and a hostile atmosphere in Greece. I reckon they'll all qualify but I think it'll be tougher than you think. I do agree it'll be goodbye to Rangers and possiblt Celtic too. Should be interesting.
