Honestly, any striker will do. I have faith in our boys, but just in case we need a back up...And Ole, who has a knack of winning games for us-what a pity he can't come out of retirement for one game! Yup, heard about his testimonial, and I'm so pleased! He totally deserves it. Hope I can watch it on a stream, it would be lovely to say goodbye one last time. Oh, too bad it's on the same day! But yes, mothers come first.

I was really mad when I read that, I think I went a bit overboard. But the Sun is just a horrible paper, and they are totally anti-United.

Actually, it's not fair on the Chelsea fans *blushes* I would hate to hear anyone say something like that about my club. Luckily, I don't think there are any lurking around here, so hopefully I haven't offended anyone.

The strangest thing was that it was never this bad till now. I used to dislike them always, but never real hatred. In a way, I sort of understand the whole Liverpool-United rivalry better now, not that it changes anything, but I get how easy it is to hate another club, particularly if they are taking something that you feel is rightfully yours.

I know. Still. I just hope, somebody will upload the whole thing then so I at least can watch later.

Yup. And with the way they happily stole the title from us multiple times in the... erh... 1940s? 1950s? Oh, I can remember. But yes, I totally get the rivalry. But I need an offense like that right now to get me personally involved in it.

I'm sure they will. It will be huge for all the United fans, and you'll probably find a torrent in a few days. Wish I could do it, but I don't know how to.

I still remember Fergie's comment about knocking Liverpool off their fucking perch. It must have really hurt being a United fan then. And it's the dream of many fans to overhaul their 18 league titles. We are just two away from it, if we do it this time, we'll be on 17. Perhaps, if next season Liverpool were to actually be a threat to us, I might be forced to rethink my liking of them. Right now, I just feel awful that they couldn't make it to the final.

I'm not that optimistic. Remember that match against the European XI in celebration of our Europe anniversary? No torrent.

Oh, I didn't know that! Seems strange that for such a star-studded game no one uploaded it. What about the Roy Keane testimonial? If there was a torrent for that then I'm sure there will be one for Ole's too.

No idea about the Keane memorial as that was before I had discovered United, actually before I had discovered footie at all. heh.

The only reason I heard about it was because I think Cristiano scored in it! I think it was at Celtic Park and Keano played half a game for us and half for Celtic.

Funny. Only reason I heard about it was because Ruud wasn't allowed to play, one major part of his falling out with Ferguson.

Oh, then maybe I'm thinking of some other game. But it was against Celtic, that I'm sure of.

I thought Ruud didn't play in the Carling Cup final? That he stormed out of the stadium in a huff, and that's why he was off to madrid.

I think, he actually spend a relatively huge amount of that whole season on the bench which was part of why he went. Oh well.
