Third port of call is Barcelona, might have to wear my Oldham Athletic shirt instead of my Man U one that day, it all depends on the result.

Nice! Have fun

Do pay a trip to Camp Nou if you have time, looks fab on the tv but in real life i was suprised it hasn't fallen down! Much like the rest of Barca, everything is half finished

I didn't hear Boos. Just sounded a muted reception compared to some of the other players. I was wondering if they were holding back given his conduct earlier this season.

To me, it sounded like he got the same reception as everyone else and I watched it on tv.

This will be our third cruise visit to Barca in the past couple of years, done the Camp Nou and the aquarium etc.

It was heaven to be sat in Las Ramblas enjoying a cool beer and listening to Micheal Owen scoring in 'Fergie time' last season against Man City.

I have kept putting it off but I suppose the wife will finally get to drag me round some half finished church that is supposed to be a 'must see'

As for Rooneys reception it sounds just as good on TV as any other to me.

I haven't watched it on tv yet, but it sounded the same as everyone elses to me but I could be wrong.

Blimmin eck Chelsea didn't waste any time did they?! FGS what do they want (oh yeh the prem league title, champions league etc etc). Just to reiterate one of the great shankly sayings "first is first, second is nothing". Lets see if abramowich's cheque book can buy him a miracle worker.

Well thats the close on another season, what will i do for the next few weeks

Watch ladies football.

Just think, this Europa League, used to EUFA cup, which used to be welcome each year, but is now made a mockery by some clubs and they put out second string side.

True - but then the Champions League was only for Champions therefore bith the cup winners & UEFA cups held more weight

I think it is largely only English clubs that put out second string teams

Kolo Toure gets a six month ban for taking drugs..... unbelievable

Kymmy · 26-05-2011, 21:45

they were water tablets.. surprised he even got 6 months

Shadow Demon UK · 26-05-2011, 21:49

Yeah, i'm sure they were...

8 months for missing a test, 6 months for taking drugs. Sounds about right for the FA.

He admitted it, the mistake seemed genuine, it wasn't really much of a performance enhancing drug. In fact, it was performing enhancing at all it just happened that one of the ingredients could have been considered so in much large doses. 6 months seems harsh.

Ferdinand only got 8 months for missing a test...
