Reply to: Man Utd out of the champions league

[Doggy Styles]

This season United have been remarkably sh1te

Only recently. In their first 8 games they were remarkably unsh1te:

W - Man City 2-3 Man Utd
W - West Brom 1-2 Man Utd
W - Man Utd 3-0 Tottenham
W - Man Utd 8-2 Arsenal
W - Bolton 0-5 Man Utd
D - Benfica 1-1 Man Utd
W - Man Utd 3-1 Chelsea
W - Leeds 0-3 Man Utd

GF 28 GA 7

Then they started drawing all over the place.

That is the problem with peaking too soon. They utterly destroyed Arsenal and somehow lost their mind after that.

Fergie's just letting the odds on them winning the premier league this season drift so he can reel in a fortune by winning all the matches next year.

I have to say the folks of Basel are looking remarkably happy this morning.

its a strong line up for the uefa cup - man city, stoke, fulham, possibly spurs and now man u.
It might go towards boosting our coefficient.

Re-live those infamous Europa League nights of the past...

Not to worry, they're still in the Channel 5 cup.

lets see if they start moaning about playing thursday and then again possibly sat/sunday.

Their revenue will go up as they will be the chosen match for Uefa super league C5 cup on the TV

When they finished 2nd in the group and qualified.

No. Exactly six years ago tonight, 7-Dec-2005, Man Utd lost 2-1 to Benfica in the last game of their group. The result meant that Man Utd finished bottom and were eliminated. In 2005.

Team Pld W D L GF GA GD Pts
Villarreal 6 2 4 0 3 1 +2 10
Benfica 6 2 2 2 5 5 0 8
Lille 6 1 3 2 1 2 −1 6
Man United 6 1 3 2 3 4 −1 6

Well, unprecedented since 2005 anyway.

That's half of London crying in their beer tonight!

Yes the spurs fans will be gutted their chances of European glory have been greatly reduced.

[AtW]

Good, less excuses for Roonie.

[Doggy Styles]

As are man city, unprecedented for United to go out at this stage.
