Blah, Blah, Blah… Waffle, Waffle, Waffle…
yada, yada yada… I don’t write good post headings.
And so it goes. Another void to fill. It’s champions’ league day today, although it doesn’t involve us. It’s also election day today in the country where I reside. Of course, I wouldn’t want to use this platform to air my political views, but dear American friends who are reading this, please don’t vote for that nutcase. You know who.
Hmm… now let’s see what I can talk about. Ah! How about this? Fifa.com carries a Q&A session where fans, with many curious sounding names, asked Ronaldo questions. He answers questions about his personal ambitions as well as the club. In short, nothing out of the ordinary. Read it, then.
Curiously, it seems Tony Adams finds Ferguson more approachable than Wenger. Perhaps that’s because Wenger is now a stubborn, miserable, old git who can’t see his team’s failings and has recoiled into a cocoon. Surely, now, you wouldn’t want to take advice from someone whose lost to Stoke, Fulham and Hull. Jokes aside, I’m not really a fan of Adams, and I really don’t care. Also, I’m not sure if he’s manager material. But that’s a hunch and only time will tell.
Nani thinks a better grasp of English has helped him develop a better understanding of his mates, and hence, better performances on the pitch. Whilst a better understanding of language and culture may have been useful, I think it’s got more to do with the few games he’s started, forcing him to work more on his game to prove to the boss that he’s ready to make the right (or left) wing his own.
Ahead of the Celtic game tomorrow, I would hope we’ll get more quotes as the day wears on and bring them up either in the comments or in tomorrow’s preview, but it would seem that Ferguson might go a little easy on the team lineup keeping in mind Arsenal this weekend. We could probably see Carlos Tevez get a start, for one.
And that’s about all I’ve got for now. Rest tomorrow. Over to you…

The only time I have been happier in this decade than tonight’s victory of hope by Barack Obama was when United won the Champions League. At least I have my priorities right.
A historic moment and an inspirational and motivational moment in history. The Death Star has been destroyed and the One Ring has been thrown back in to the mouth of Mount Doom. It’s time for the World to celebrate the end to tyranny, fascism, immorality and total stupidity. Although I would have preferred an Obama/Ferguson ticket.

Nice that obama won
and having a bit of kenyan blood 
like me makes it even more happy. back to football now, today is our champions league match and I really hope that we wont have those complancent spurts we have seen in some games this season. We need to be more hungry and never give teams a hint that they can get back to the game. Prediction Celtic 1- Man united 2

we do care what happens to the three other clubs. If they crash out of CL, they lose money that they would have used to challenge us in the transfer market. That is why I care that they mess up.
Plus, their performance in the CL will affect their confidence going into the weekend.
Hence, we want Arsenal to give up a late goal and lose/draw – that should make then ready for our pickings this weekend.
Regarding, Obama — he still has a lot to prove. With congress on his side, he should be able to push his stuff through, but if he hangs with a bad crew, he can also create havoc…

@Red Ranter: I agree but that isn’t unusual. By that time all the pressure is lifted and one is more like himself. All of a sudden the John McCain that many of us admired despite his political affiliation emerged. He showed some class instead of acting like a maverick ass clown. What a route. Thank God for Obama but thank our lucky stars, no Palin. That woman terrifies me.

@Nelson Otieno: It was a funny and emotional week for me. I just finished watching five seasons of the HBO series “The Wire” which made me feel like there was no hope for America and the continued decline of the American Empire was so evident in that series. Then Obama wins and hope and optimism overflows in my heart. YES WE CAN!

@Madschester United: “If he hangs with a bad crew”. You’d have to resurrect the Third Reich to find a worse crew of scum and villainy than the group of Nazis that were running the country for the last eight years under Bush.
