  1. A : Manchester City were relegated after scoring more goals (80) than any of the other 21 teams in the First Division, and they were also reigning League Champions.

     

     

     

    Today's trivia.

     

    Q: Which four players have scored in two different FIFA World Cup Final matches?

     

    Zidane (the only 1 I know for certain), Pele, Rummige (German goal machine), Brehme?

  2. Going mad over a J.P.McManus take-over deal on the back of something Micky Quim said on Talkshite! 67.gif

     

    Micky Quim added a bit of meat on what he knows (or doesn't) today... he said the banks aren't giving us money as noone on our board is willing to do so either - so we're either stuck with criminals who are going to just kill us or they're no longer putting in as they expect to be selling soon?

    He did mention there are rumours going round about JP McManus interest and although didn't put his own opinion to it, he mentioned he's a huge sports fan and often goes to Man.Ure/Shite matches.

    He also mentioned Arteta deal was set-up after Blackburn game and we let it drag to get more money out of the deal.

    When asked if any of that money would be available in Jan he acknowledged that £15m had been raised and didn't know what would be available in Jan.

     

    He says he's got inside sources but Talkshite prides itself on speculating so read with a pinch of salt!

  3. Had no idea on this one so I looked it up (no-one close yet btw...nothing to do with the warwink.png ).

     

    Without giving anything away what struck me is how amazingly close the table was that year....champions had fifty-two points and last had thirty-six! I know it was only two points for a win (would be 73 points to 50 now) but that's still a very small spread...wonder if it's ever been closer.

     

    Long shot based on how close it ended and 2 points for a win - could they have say 18 or 19 wins and it's a record amount of wins for a relegated side?

  4. GK: Howard/Mucha

    RB: Neville/Hibbert

    LB: Baines

    CB: Jagielka/Distin/Heitinga/Yobo

    RM: Coleman/Baxter

    LM: Drenthe/Gueye

    CM: Fellaini/Rodwell/Osman/Barkley

    ACM: Cahill/Bilyaletdinov

    F: Saha/Denis/Anichebe/Velios

     

    To be fair we have a decent squad but if we get injuries in key areas it will be tough. Luckily we have a fair few versatile players within the squad.

     

    I can see certainly McCaleny (sp) and maybe players like Mustafi, Garbutt, Femi Orengu (sp) and Wallace called upon, at least as bench fillers this season.

  5. i haven't done since i was 10..cos as soon as i did that player left..kanchelskis..ferguson..unsworth..barmby..speed..it was all my fault guys

     

    Happened to me too (I chose some odd names!!!) Beagrie, Amokachi, Ferguson (x5), Collins, Dacourt, Cadamarteri, Jeffers, Nyarko, Rooney (signed).

  6. will saha stay fit. and will felli stay period

     

    If saha doesn't stay fit then moyes needs to play another of his strikers not just cahill or felli up top. Felli can't go anywhere for now (until Jan!)

     

    We play 1 striker and we have 4 options in Saha, Anichebe, Denis and Velios - I hope Saha stays fit and Denis is a lot better than Anichebe. I can see Velios getting some game time this season which doesn't disappoint me as I have been encouraged by what I've seen.
