Also the Rio Ferdinand appeal is tomorrow,hopefully the F.A see sense and reduce the ban.
I'm not saying that because i want him at Euro 2004 as John Terry is a more than able replacement,just that if Titov gets 1 year for failing and Ferdinand 8 months yet he hasn't proved to have failed the test,it seems wrong. |

Also, what does everyone think about this Hitzfeld to Chelsea stuff, if its true then, Abramovich or Kenyon, whichever one is calling the shots, is an asshole. |

the odds werent that bad on Charlton finishing 4th last time i looked, if they're still that good i might put something on it.
Liverpool will win tonight we've beaten them twice and drawn with them once this season, we're yet to win away so i think our luck will just about run out this time. |

Ok maybe expecting is too strong a word but if we just come up and don't even give ourselves a chance with 10 games left what's the point? And like I said, look at what Birmingham have done, at one point last season it looked like they would be relegated, now they're pushing for Europe.

Also, I hope Ferdinand's appeal keeps the verdict as it is. It would be harsh to increase the punishment as a retalitation to an appeal, but a reduction would show weakness in the FA and a weak stance on drugs, whether you've failed a test or refused to take one, its besides the point. |

Yeah I really like Ranieri - he's a great bloke and has been put under fantastic pressure in extraordinary circumstances. I'm hoping he gets at least one more season to prove himself but I fear not.
Also the FA shouldn't even think of lowering Ferdinand's ban. I've said this loads of times but i'll just say it once more - a missed test is a failed test. |

They should sack Houllier before the games started, he's starting Biscan instead of Henchoz.

Besides, where did Chelsea finish last year? 4th. Where will they finish this year? 2nd. How far have they gone in the Champions League this season? At least to the QF stage How far did they go last year? What's that? They weren't even there? Chelsea were out of the CL for how many years? 3-4? They've come straight back in and found the formula for winning on the continent, pretty much instantly. Arsene Wenger has taken at least 3-4 years to get it right for Arsenal. They should take a long hard look at themselves if they're seriously contemplating sacking Ranieri. |

Kind I just say, its good that Owen proved me wrong, but to me the real test is doing it again regularly

Yeah but what the hell is with shifting Henchoz to make way for Biscan?!?!
Henchoz Hyypia were class a few seasons ago. Biscan has sucked dick the entire time. I agree though that Caragher is better at right back and I've always been a Riise fan. Great going forward and just as good defensively as Traore (who is also shit). Sure his defensive play sucks sometimes but its passable. Riise - Hyypia - Henchoz - Carragher. Thats what I would go for anyway. |

I don't care which of those two dickheads, Kenyon and Abramovich, approached Hitzfield, they are boith trying to **** up the club.
I don't agree with alot of Ranieri's tactics, or signings, but I think that the best thing to do is to back him, and then see what transfers he makes in the summer, see where we are at Christmas time, and then make a decision. If worst comes to worst we will come 3rd in the league, and quarter finals of the Champions League, I would have no problem with that. If we manage to come 4th in the league, then I still think Ranieri should be backed until Christmas. But Kenyon and Abramovich are both dodgy cunts, and neither give a fu>ck about the rules for transfers, talking to players, or even the current set of staff. Batesy and Hutchinson was a MUCH better partnership, the only thing Hutchinson ever did wrong was made a shit transfer behind Vialli's back. I have said this before, and I will say it again, the only advantage to Batesy not being there, is that Hoddle or Guillit MAY come back, but I doubt Kenyon and Abramovich want them. |

Hamann's goal was pretty good.
Owen needs to be more consistent scoring,like Sid said,atm he misses too many chances imo. On a side note Real Madrid lost in the Spanish Cup final 3-2 to Zaragoza a.e.t,great match though. |

He should have got the ban cut. 8 months for missing a test is absurd. Guys who are failing tests are getting shorter bans.
I thought they would let him come back for the last two weeks of the season and then have him ready for Euro 2004 since that's when it would actually benefit them. |

Its not about what would benefit the FA, its about laying down the law, a missed test is a failed test, thats is how these things work.

Ok so how did that Man City player not get the same ban Rio did?
Why do players who fail tests get shorter bans? |
