[terry nutkins]

actually i just hope we avoid barnsley

[Dancing Girl]

I want Liverpool

[the mighty asok]

Arsenal V Liverpool
Roma V Dirty Shitbags
Schalke V Barca
Fenerbache V Dirty Southern Shitbags

im happy with arsenal (ish). Im just glad we avoided man u, as although the rewards would be great from that game, the suffering would be eternal.

Just come out now...

winner of arsenal/liverpool will play chelsea/fenerbache
winner of schalke/barca will play roma/man u

another chelsea liverpool semi (maybe - tough arsenal obviously). Ho, ho and indeed ho.

[Dancing Girl]

That'll do. We should be able to get past the Italians again...I think we will be happier than they will with the draw.

The other half of the draw looks interesting, with another all English semi on the cards.

absolutely ECSTATIC to get Schalke

:cool:

[fatneck]

trip to Barca in april should be nice :beerchug:

dont fancy going to rome to get stabbed in the ass though. (oo-er missus)
A mate had an axe chucked at him at the game earlier this season....

see liverpool managed to avoid a british club too ;)

So it seems Arsenal will play Liverpool in the league in between their 2 CL ties

[the mighty asok]

Yep - three times in a week. The same, I think (if I remember correctly), almost happened with us with Chelsea. In fact, im pretty sure that one season we played Chelsea close to 486 thousand times.

IF we beat Fenerbace, and IF Liverpool beat Arsenal, it'll be sodding Groundhog Day in the semis.

To be honest I think thats the worst draw of the lot for Liverpool, even the Mancs would have been more preferable.If the Mancs beat Barca in the semis
and Chesea get thru to Semis that means Liverpool'll have to beat 3 English teams to win final - Madness !

[slept in]

I think Fenerbace will beat Chelsea, Schalke will beat Barca, Liverpool and United to also go through...Controversial I know...

I'm with you on Fenerbahce. Tough team.
I fancy them for a final with Barca, Barca to win.

[Dancing Girl]

So the draw means that we have...Utd v Roma...and we could also have a repeat of Liverpool v Chelsea (again)...we could even have a repeat final in Arsenal v Barca ... which all goes to illustrate the dominance by a small elite in Europe, not least the financially advantaged English teams. The Champions League is starting to look a bit like the Premiership.

My money will be on a United v Chelsea final

Barca as a team are falling apart a bit though. Henry throwing tantrums, Messi could be injured for the games, Ronaldinho can't be arsed. Against an organised team they could be in trouble...

[Contador]

Couldn't agree more, but it still can be done...

No one gave us a chance against Juventus.. OUT.

No one gave us a chance against Chelsea (Twice).. OUT.

No one gave us a chance against AC Milan.. OUT.

No one gave us a chance against Barcelona.. OUT.

No one gave us a chance against Inter Milan.. OUT.

No one will give us a chance against Arsenal.....

With that type of record if you look at it from another prospective no cunt wanted to get us in the draw. You could get 9/1 for us this morning to lift the big eared cup, i myself have dabbled with a few quid...
