@ aig alex is god
cantona wouldn't have any use to the dippers considering the class of teamates he was gonna line-up with, at united he teamed up with guys who were still gonna be champions that season....

LONG LIVE THE KING !

Sam.SAF never turned torres down.when we wanted him in 2006 he wanted to stay at atletico.in 2007 due to FSW'S spanish influence he went there. SAF cant be blamed.

Aig.. the torres myth is one which i won't mind you debunking it for me because i remember before the world cup in germany saf was quoted as saying the boy was too ''slim'' and not ready for the physical premier league which really upset torres and thats why he decided to ditch us on our next attempt, though i wont mind some clarification :)

Maybe, i dont know then. We have missed out on some players like ronaldinho, torres, robben and some others. However for every missed signing there was a quality one, We signed Ole because we missed out on shearer. What a signing that was. Sheringham, Cantona, Van Nistelrooy, rio,rooney, vidic, evra all were brilliant.Signed Ronny after Becks left when many thought Becks boots were too big too fill.SO a few misses here and there will be forgiven i guess

I have some joy and laughs to spread. This is from a dipper commenting on a youtube video.

"he is a liverpool legend FOREVER a truly gifted player that unlike all the man u and arsenal "legends" who jump ship and leave this guy is a red for life and just you wait fuckers till we get these fucking americans out and the arabs in you guys will crawl back into your shells and suck our cocks RED RAW".

What do you guys think about Sundays game?. I am a bit worried but feel we should beat Hull. The 2 games before the new year have to be won.Considering that the rentoys have a tricky game tomorrow and no senior strikers for Monday's game.Vidic and the Da Silvas back is a major boost. Hopefully Fletch and Carrick can go back to their normal positions adn dictate play.

guys, anyone can explain the meaning of the song? I am unsure why 5 Cantonas is the magic (or 12..?). I understand it has something to do with the fact he was offered to dippers, but I miss the whole meaning of 5 and 12

Chep, is it not more to do with the original song -i.e. the fact that there are 12 days of christmas and a gift for each day given by a true love with "5 gold rings" being given around the middle of the song?

If there's a deeper meaning, I'd like to know too!
