Badman Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Not a joke but interesting from the liverpool echo:A MYSTERIOUS informant in India was behind the tip that led to the Champions League draw prediction on the ECHO website.All four ties were correctly identified on our Liverpool FC forum 90 minutes before the draw in Switzerland.The man behind the prediction today revealed it came in a tip-off from Goa.Identified on the website as “Confused”, the internet user asked to remain anonymous, but said he had been told the draw by two different contacts.He said one of them received a “one-off” call from Goa on Tuesday.The forum poster was so convinced he decided to place a £200 stake on the draw – but couldn’t find a bookmaker to take his money.He said: “A friend received the call from abroad but was struggling to find someone who would take his money.“No-one would take my money either.”Several bookmakers said it was usual practice not to open a book on cup draws.But William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe insisted the company would have offered 7-1 as the odds on one particular team drawing another.He said: “Football fans are very interested in the outcome of a draw, but they are generally not interested in putting money on it. We were taking bets but there weren’t many made.“It is hardly surprising someone had guessed a draw with limited options.“There is nothing untoward going on. What would be the point? There would have to be so many people involved.”The man’s post sparked a huge demand to log onto the ECHO website.Former Russia goalkeeper Rinat Dasaev made the draw, which was televised live from Nyon, standing beside Uefa general secretary David Taylor.Uefa spokesman William Gaillard said the draw was 150% honest and claimed the ECHO forum user “must have supernatural powers”.Thousands hit websiteMORE THAN 500,000 people logged on to the ECHO website over the weekend.News of the Champions League prediction spread quickly, with more than 200,000 having a look within 12 hours of the post at 10.30am.That figure shot up to half a million by Monday. More than 700 people replied to the post. imagine if somebody dropped that on VIPimagine the publicity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 We aint got the squad to compete at such a high level constantly, especially when it nears the end of the season when it countsAnyone with abit of common sense can see that. Its a shame Wenger cant. Seriously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Dan Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Senderos makes Stepanov look like Tony Adams.Worst defender I've seen at a top club. The Swiss Michael Dawson tbh.Adebayor isn't top level either I don't think, he aint clinical enough and needs about 5 chances to score.Arsenal need to spend serious money to compete properly next year.
