    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/6559625.stm

    When they were saying it in January, I said "Fuck off, never again". But I guess it's shaping up for us at least to have a shot at 3 trophies.

    The omens are frightening. (I copied and pasted all this by the way - from RedCafe.net )

    SAF has won a european cup every 8 years
    1983- CWC Aberdeen
    1991 - CWC United
    1999 - Champions League
    2007 - ?...

    ---------------------

    we faced two italian teams to the final in 99.. Roma and Milan this year...

    ----------------------

    1998 World Cup - United's no.7 involved in a red card media storm, hated by the nation and booed at every away ground the next season.

    1999 - United win Treble

    2006 World Cup - United's no.7 involved in a red card media storm, hated by the nation and booed at every away ground the next season.

    2007 - ?

    ------------------------
    1. We played a Danish team in the group stages in both seasons (and we all know that Danish teams hardly ever make the group stages...)

    2. Real Madrid played Dynamo Kiev in both those seasons...

    3. The final of the CL in both seasons was/will be hosted in a Mediterranean city which also hosted the Olympic games in the same decade :

    Barcelona Olympics 1992, CL Final 1999
    Athens Olympics 2004, CL Final 2007

    ------------------------------------------

    I dunno, a few weeks ago I thought United probably would do another treble but Chelsea seem to be picking up steam a bit. Not to mention United are having defensive problems at the moment. I dunno, it will be interesting to see, I expect an English team to win the champions league though.

    United don't need defenders... the other team scores a couple but United score 4 or 7.

    It's a shame his career at Villa ended the way it did. I don't know what the standard is in the US but he could still have been a top Championship player if he wanted first team football.

    The standard in the US is probably less than the championship. More like League 1.

    Was tracking back through this thread and found this.

    You foresaw the catalyst of England's downfall. Obviously they weren't practising enough. >_<:D
