Manchester will be blue all over

[Jimmy]

Yes, the unthinkable has happenened the aliens from the dark side have reached their target. Oh how it hurts someone from a more enlightened world, can the men from the east stop their match or will Manchester on the 14th of this month go down as one the world's great tragedies.
This has ceased to be funny anymore, our national co-efficient is now in great shape, the aliens from the dark side do not have to prove anymore points,why do they not just lie down on the 14th and accept an honourable retreat.
Oh the pain can anyone offer solace

[Raphael]

Excuse me? Russia is Red, there is no blue in Moscow on 21st.

[Jimmy]

Raphael, this is one small chink of light and hopefully Moscow will be red all over on the 21st and the boy from Madeira will show why he is world class, but can St Petersburg sort out the hordes of Ghengis Khan in Manchester on the 14th, Hail Hail

As a Celtic supporter through and through Im actually pleased that the "other lot" has done so well, Ive tons of respect for Walter Smith, and its one in the eye for those people that say the SPL is inferior to the premier league, id have prefer to see Hoops there at Eastlands but at least Scottish football is there on the world stage. so for me it will be 90 minutes of "if only" but I hope the "Gers" do the business.

Scotlands shame no longer.

[Raphael]

The Blues will sing the blues this time around.

[Sheep In Wolf's Clothing]

I too am a Celtic supporter, and I was happy for Ranger for all of 2 seconds till my best friend and Rangers Fan called to give me the gears!!
Even having to live with it from my buddy, I am very happy for Scottish Football!!
Sara

I sort of knew what you were talking about when you started [been a Man U. fan forever] and then I got confused.

For those of you who are not followers of UEFA [Union of European Football Associations] football [soccer] there are two international football tournaments drawing to a close this month:
UEFA Cup which will feature Rangers [Scot] vs. Zenit St Petersburg [Rus] in Manchester [UK] on 14 May

UEFA Champions League will feature Manchester United FC [UK] vs. Chelsea FC [UK] in Moskow [Rus] on 21 May.

The situation is further complicated when you start refering to team colors as Rangers and Chesea and Zenat all wera predominantly blue kit [uniforms] and Manchester U is a red team [not to be confused with Manchester City who are also a blue team and of course Russia in general is still refered to in slang as "reds."

Soo... we have two sets of rival fans discussing their events here and confusing us Americans who keep wanting to stop the clock and pick up the ball .

Thanks for the clarification. Those would be two games worth watching or even listening to on the BBC radio. Does anyone know if it will be possible to see or hear them here in the states?

Whoa, in NO WAY do Manchester Utd & Chelsea represent the UK they are ENGLISH teams and NOTHING to do with Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland who all have their own federations/associations.

I'd hope there would be coverage of champions league as it is the culmination of the main european football competition. It will be covered by SKY so the chances are it may sneak on an American associate channel
