Celtic V Utd.

[Clouds_mate]

Should be an interesting game. After all a few years back the Scotts wanted to join the premership and believed they were title running threats.

Will be interesting to watch the best team in scottland V the best team in england and really see how the two compair against each other.

Predictions?

[jclaydon]

2 - 2

Found it funny how Strachan was having a rant about how "the prem isn't any better than the spl"

[Bubba]

as a totally loyal fan of the celts i hope they do the best but it looks like united may have a stronger team even though celtic have been performign amazing this season but they are playing in a easier league! but sayin that they did worse in their own league and still beat liverpool...etc

[jaybiss]

best team in england?

thats a lie to start with

[hesslevtr]

best team in england?

thats a lie to start with

how

2-1 to utd

[AdamW]

Hahaha Celtic and Rangers in the premiership.......Title contenders you say...

Im sorry but ive watched Scottish football and the pace of the game is gash....

Easy win for United....boring match aswell...

Wait till Villa in champions League

[jaybiss]

explain how they are currently the best team in england?

cause they are top of the prem for a week?

[Clouds_mate]

Dont shoot me, thats what said back in the day...

[hesslevtr]

ok so who are best team in premiership

infact no dont tell me i cant be arsed with childish arguments about footy

[Baz]

3-0 for Utd

[AdamW]

Read an iteresting thing in newspaper the other day regarding added on time at end of games back when United were Kings of premiership (in there era).

When United were loosing the game ther added on time at end of matches average to 6 and half minutes....a big difference to Southampton who got an average of a minute

[AdamW]

Dont shoot me, thats what said back in the day...

Yes I remeber the so called combined League ideas....Im all for it but dont think they would make much of a dent.....

Was not aimed as a harsh comment :P

[AdamW]

3-0 United anyways

[Scott]

united far from walked over celtic at old trafford... Scottish teams also have an excellent history against english teams.

However at the moment Scottish football is very poor. Nothing like 5 years ago when money was in the game. Currently we get less than £20m in tv money, the worst teams in the premiership get £20m each.

The gulf is not as large as most think though, there are 4/5/6 good teams in the premiership the rest are gash to.

Strachan also never said that the premiership was no better than the SPL. He said that the premiership isnt the best league in the world, which it isnt.

[Clouds_mate]

Good job didnt want to have to hunt you down and bite das nazel off.

[jaybiss]

Even blues would give both celtic and rangers a run for their money;)

as for who is the best team in the prem, i couldnt tell you out of the top two at the mo

[rey]

2-1 to united

[run_hard]

I cant stand United but Im thinkin theyll win

[AdamW]

No one can stand Utd or there fans.......

[hesslevtr]

No one can stand Utd or there fans.......

love you to

[AdamW]

I would say Id make an exception for you Paul....but I dont :wink:

[S9_DAN]

United will win i say 2-1

[Luke]

I reckon Utd will win 2-0.

I do like Celtic aswell but I'll be supporting Man Utd.

[Danr]

United should walk it but it is a funny old game football :P

I hope they do win though, not a fan but would rather an english team win the Champions League!

[Robb]

a big difference to Southampton who got an average of a minute

i feel so cheated...




and i canny believe leckie has just said utd are the best team in england.

utd should win this without many problems, but as dan said, funny game o' football...

predict - 3-1 utd

[jaybiss]

No one can stand Utd or there fans.......

it will be the same with chelsea soon

they will start having supporters from all over england soon ;)

[Clouds_mate]

already have supporters all over england. I never used to see chelsea shirts in yokrshire. I see them all the time.

I was the only chelsea fan all thw way through school and got piss taking about them all the time lol. now every cunt and there dog supports them.

I dont about the time with chelsea tho, Everyone wants them to crash and burn and same with Jose, refs hate him so very much doubt it.

[youngnutter]

Man U and Celtic both english hating scum!

Cart stand any of them!

[Robb]

i hope mcgeady plays...

what channel is this on?

[hesslevtr]

channel 3

[PugDan]

Man U and Celtic both english hating scum!

Cart stand any of them!
Couldnt agree more.

Rangers at heart. :)

Come on United though!

[Andy]

As for the best team i the premiership its tight between man utd and chelsea. Being a man utd fan id say man utd but over last 2 years chelsea have been the far superior of the 2. And tonight i think we'll be too strong for celtic so 2-0 to utd Come On Rooney!!!

[Davekelz]

3-1 Man U I say. Lets hope Ronaldo doesn't fluff up again, need his dreamteam points :D:

[killie-vts]

best team in scotland they aint and chelsea best in england fact

[Clouds_mate]

Im a chelsea/Rangers fan, blues brothers you dont have to tell me.

[Chris_T]

Man utd did't spent 200 millon on players tho in 4 years.

[PugDan]

Man utd did't spent 200 millon on players tho in 4 years.
Very good point.

Buying success doesnt count.

When Roman dies, Chelsea will die.

United are the best English team without a doubt.

I prefer to watch Arsenal though, they are brilliant to watch.

[Clouds_mate]

Ever think why spent so much? Chelsea interested in a player he costs twice as much FACT.


Not sure why you both got so deferance then tho. Has nothing to do with it.

[TheMadSaxo]

There is no way United will find this game as easy as most people on here seem to think.

United haven't been at their best away from home in the Champions League for ages, not just this season. They were lucky to beat Benfica 1-0 and obviously got beat in Copenhagen (albeit with a weakened team).

Celtic are pretty good at Parkhead, they battered Benfica and I reckon they'll be up for this game. United are a lot stronger than Celtic on paper but I think Celtic will put 'em under loads of pressure so the defence will have to play well without a doubt.

I think United would take a draw and no injuries tonight, what with Chelsea to play on Sunday. BRING IT ON!

Anyways, 1-1 for me. Celtic to go ahead and United to equalise late on.

How's that for a detailed answer? Lol.

[PugDan]

Doesnt matter how much they spent I suppose.

They are not top of the league and will not win it this season.

They havn't won the champions league for a while?

United are the best English team.

[PugDan]

Oh, and I think till be 2-1 United tonight.

United to go ahead, Celtic to equalise and United to win it in last 10 minutes.

[TheMadSaxo]

By the way, if Arsenal don't get 3 points tonight, I think they're fooked looking at the lastest result in Moscow:

CSKA 0-2 Porto (latest)

[Clouds_mate]

your clearly not the big football fan your trying to show.

Nothing to do with chelsea this thread.

[PugDan]

Not a true football fan?

No, just been a season ticket for 11 years with Leicester.

Probably been Stamford Bridge more times than you have. :|

It isnt about Chelsea no, but it was talking about the best team in England and for some reason Chelsea were mention. God knows why. :|

[Clouds_mate]

Ha yeh im a glory boy. MAAASIVE

[PugDan]

By the way, if Arsenal don't get 3 points tonight, I think they're fooked looking at the lastest result in Moscow:

You watching it mate?

That second goal was a beaut.

[Clouds_mate]

ok then, Real Madrid. Spent more money then chelsea.....doing gash.


All about the coach's If it was for Jose. chelsea would be no where. Yes maybe Roman has given them too much money but who have they bought? Chelsea have no 1 like Utd have....Beckham....Rooney Cantorna (sp)

they got over priced on any player, Gallas and 5million for Cole LMAO. prime example.

[Baz]

didn't see the first half but the 2nd half so far is pretty gash

[Baz]

bah what a shitter

[PugDan]

Everyones wrong. :(

And Arsenal tossers are winning.

[jaybiss]

score?

[Baz]

does it get any worse? :( 1-0 Celtic, Saha just missed a penalty

[jclaydon]

Has anybody seen saha under a little bit of pressure?

I knew he was gonna miss that the second he stepped up.

[jaybiss]

easy win for united then ;)

[Davekelz]

What a friggen freekick to be honest!

[Baz]

just saving our selves for Sunday....*rolleyes*

[Clouds_mate]

awaits the excuses..

[Clouds_mate]

ooppss there we are..

[jaybiss]

theres no such thing as an easy game hey boys :P

[Baz]

ooppss there we are..

lol i duno im just clutching at straws i didn't really watch it but from what i saw united played pretty shite

[Emma_ZS]

Saha had a crap night! Bring on chelsea! *prays*

[Clouds_mate]

theres no such thing as an easy game hey boys :P

I say it when chelsea lose, Utd fans disagree and bring the money factor in once again but......They are humans not robots cant always expect such great things all the time

[jaybiss]

when was the last time chelsea won the treble etc ;)

[Clouds_mate]

blow me. LOL.

Iv had alot of people already in my face about the weekends game, id rather not comment to have it back in my face TBH.

[Emma_ZS]

Man Utd need to prove themselves now!

[PugDan]

Can't wait for the weekends game now.

Should be a cracker.

[Emma_ZS]

:P I still have faith !

[jaybiss]

Man Utd need to prove themselves now!

why?????

[PugDan]

why?????
Excatly what I was thinking.

Top of the premiership, looked unstoppable in the premiership.

Lost one game in the champions league and they all of a sudden need to prove themselves?!

[Emma_ZS]

THEY HAVE LOST TWO IN A ROW IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, ACTUALLY. Well after that loss, missing the penalty. I think you must agree man utd didnt make the most of their posession. Especially SAHA!

[PugDan]

One game though.

Theyve been unstoppable in champions league.

They'll beat Benfica with ease and go alot furthur than celtic.

I'd put money on it.

[Emma_ZS]

They lost against copenhagen and now celtic = two in a row

[jaybiss]

They'll beat Benfica with ease and go alot furthur than celtic.

I'd put money on it.

what happened to beating celtic though

thats what i love you cant predict champion league group games

[Clouds_mate]

all about winning isnt it eh

[jaybiss]

all about winning isnt it eh

it is, we didnt win the auto windscreens for nothing :)

[Luke]

United don't need to prove anything.

Like what has been said, at the moment they unstoppable in the Premiership.

I'm support Man Utd, but big deal they lost tonight - at least it was a decent team.

[adam]

quality, great result, went well mad when he missed the penalty and everyone in the whole pub looked round but how cares what a result, come on you hoops

[mattc]

Sorry but there is only one United... and that would be my Southend United!!!!


I was there when Eastwood put the ball in the Man U net!!! 1-0 to the sea siders less than 1 month ago!!!!!

And before anyone says 'man u prob put there boys team out'.... they didn't :)

Huge day in your clubs history.

I watched that.

Loved it.

Ive witnessed magic nights like that with Leicester.

Cant beat the feeling can you?!

[mattc]

na not at all was standing there everone biting nails waiting for the final whistle, people screaming when man u got neer southends goal.... what a night..... bottom of the championship but who give a crap when you beat man united :)

[Bubba]

glad to see celtic with this win happy days

[AdamW]

I take back what I said....Celtic put up a good fight....Utd looked poor from the start....

Also all the comments about Chelsea Millions.......what if the shoe was on the other foot. If your team was taking over by a billionaire would you be complaining.....Lame excuses.......U could buy all the best players in the world for a ridculous amount of money but you still need to get them to play as a team and not let there egos get in the way of the game.....

[uppitysi]

Well said mattc, thats what footballs all about, im a Man Utd supporter, have been since i watched my first match, the 1990 cup final reply against palace, followed them throughout the whole 90's and all of alex's years. Suported them no matter what, last night was a disapointment but we should still get through. I no nowadays there are alot of chelsea supporters that have magically come out of the woodwork, same as United had in the late 90's. But it football, its all part of it, an amazing game...

[hesslevtr]

poor showing cant belive saha missed pen and chance before oh well life goes on

as a few of you are going on about chelseas billions and takes a good manager

but would mourhino be there if abromovich wasnt hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[saxodan]

Not that I watch footbal that much or really support a team... but it was a good game, was watching it while I was doing my UNI application

Great Goal!

Dan

[AdamW]

If you were working in McDonalds for £5 an hour and Burger King tried to poach you from there as you cook a good burger and were willing to pay you £10 an hour would you stay in your current job or go somewhere else for twice the price.....

Plus if I was a manager it would be a dream to work with some of the best players in the world......

For the record I dont support Chelsea

[Clouds_mate]

Maybe he wouldnt be there....

Ok so its gone from buying the leauge to getting all the best players (we dont have any world class players) now to the manager?

Question on everyones lips is this....IF chelsea didnt pay the waterboy £11 an hour would the players have enough water to win the league. Maybe he wouldnt of been there is Roman wasnt there and Ken bates was only willingto release £4 an hour to the water boy back in the day.

Seems its excuse after excuse, Bskyb ruined the sport, offering such high money for the good teams to be on sky sports back in the day. Then it was Blackburn, Utd etc etc. Since then its become a bussiness for the chairman and boards of clubs they dont want to realse money because it out of there own pocket and dont want lose income....if it doesnt prove as an increase/investment. See with Roman its not his income hes playing with so money isnt a factor and everyone in the world knows that hence when chelsea go for a player it adds a fucking stupid price tag. Looking at the key of the players we have had over the last 4 years its worse then utd, you have had much better players and if chelsea paid the correct price for the players we would of spent the same as utd and not the stupid inflated prices.

[Clouds_mate]

tbh i dont except of you to agree with that because you only looking at your piece of the cake and not the whole.

Just cut of the slack with the narrow minded to fuck comments.

[Tupps]

i knew louis sahahahaha was going to miss that penalty, most left footers spoon penalties!

was soooo pleased to see the keeper save it - our lass is a celtic fan

Celtic Rock

[dean_plunton]

saha was shite that game carnt believe he missed the penalty ! most of the others played ok but celtic deserved to win ! kinda :)

[piperX]

nakamara, unbelievable free kick, it was about time he did somethin in the game to be honest. i bet sir alex threw more than the odd boot round in the dressing room after the match!!! lol
