We struggled at home against a rapidly improving Aston Villa side and managed to scrape a point mainly due to our persistance and their nerves.

So from being out of the title race to being clear winners and being level within 2 weeks just shows what a close race this title race is, but it’s great fun to be involved.

Not that you’d know of course.

once again - £88K a week for Bent ? His agent must be a hypnotist !

Maybe like Wenger you only choose to see what suits you?

We are also still leading the title challenge, which kinda slaps all those who dismissed us in August slapbang in the face.

Tonight we plan a great AC Milan side in a real European tie, against some of the games greatest players. These are the games we aspire to, the games that lend an edge, a game we look forward to for weeks, games you can only admire, games that you can only sigh with heartache at not being involved.

Of course, your only recourse is to tell me that, in fact your dreams were fulfilled by winning the monkey cup (Bagels name). I expect nothing less than illogical defence of all spuds’ shortcomings.

While you stargaze through the game tonight, you can dream of having these players, this management, and this team, with the wonderful stadium, and the riches and glory that beckon.

Perhaps you could be part of it if you didn’t spend £16.5M and a whopping great £88K a week, yep, £88K a week on some benchwarming hacker.

How about Brum away and Villa at home? Surely, you would have expected more than 2 points out of 6 from these 2 games?

And in the blink of an eye your 5 point lead was down to 1. Looks like you’ve got more to worry about than us. After all, we’ve already got some silverware this season and we are in Europe again.

The Bagel.

Cannot believe that about Darren Bent. Ludicrous.

Well, we had to come back to earth eventually, didn’t we? Ignore, suck it in and let’s carry on. COYS.

A bit of a slip that wasn’t it ?

Woodgate injured - hahahahahaha, that’s really funny.

King out for season probably.

While newcastle are around to press the self destruct button, I expect you wont get relegated, but it would seem that spuds doing enough to placate the fans is the current going concern.

The plusses and minuses of a spuds season ticket holder:

Getting to see spuds go to wembley and win.

Having to watch uninterested players thrash out meaningless games from march til the end of the season.

We gonna beat Arsenal to the title..really shame that your team was hot to tip arsenal n replace top 4 which will be great but now you will be surviving relegation..pity :>

Hopeless in league, hey but don’t worry you still have your “World Cup” to enjoy with..haha!

- MU Fan -

Bagel, your lead this week was spot on this week. The squad’s too thin and the investement in new players can’t come too soon . Let’s hope they can get the back some depth with the money they’ll have to spend in the summer. I also hope its Juande and not Comolli that will be making those spending decisions!
