Think I'll get the ball rolling on here about football. What I want to know is what does other people think of the Premier League season so far (06/07)?
As a Liverpool fan I am hoping that we can keep up at 3rd and maybe even challenge Chelsea for 2nd. But the last two games against Arsenal have left me worried [:0]
Am surprised to see Wigan in 17th. You'd think that they'd build on what they achieved last season. They've got the team to do it, just lacking confidence I think.
Oh and Shevchenko is a big flop at Chelsea, and has done very little to help their cause. With JT absent for longer that originally thought the pressure is definitely going to mount up on him to deliver.
Look forward to seeing what other people think.

No chance of making it to 2nd.

Very proud of my local team, Reading. First year in the Premiership, and they've not let themselves down at all. Including the complete whitewash of West Ham. (Unfortunately for me, my best mate is a West Ham fan, and we've had a bit of ongoing banter since they originally nabbed Alan Pardue. This was just the icing on the cake!)

Yeah...let's not talk about Watford. I was so thrilled when they made it to the Premiership this year, but unfortunately they haven't won many matches and they're dead last in the rankings.

Another good result for us yesterday- up to within 3 points of the play offs.Oooh, the dizzy heights beckon again:D

Few clubs will be able to boast of beating Arsene and his foreigners and the Mighty Man United, so there's a plus point from what has been a bad season for West Ham - I think they're really missing Dean Ashton.

Same here, you really can feel the atmosphere around the ground that the fans really think we might win it again this year. (Travel to Manchester from London every weekend totally worth it btw)
It'd be great if you could do us a favour this weekend VS075

Cheers,
Chris

Nope, couldn't get tickets - I asked a tout outside OT on Saturday how much for 2 in the MU section - £300 each [:0]

I don't think I'm really qualified to comment on this thread seeing as I am a Hammers fan:D However, I did derive some sick pleasure watching Liverpool get knocked out of the FA Cup recently, especially as they are the hubby's team too[}:)]
And, just to be a total girly about this, hasn't Thierry Henry got the best thighs you have ever seen?? ooohhhh!
