Ok fellas.

It's D - Day. What a Sunday this is going to be !! Can't wait for it to start.

Will Man-U do it ? I have this odd feeling - they might just stutter !

+1 on that. they will go down by conceding a goal in the last five min or so.

Eddy · 11th May 2008, 20:58

Too good. Watching both the matches simultaneously.

Go ManU......

normally_crazy · 11th May 2008, 21:03

Both lead 1-0. This is getting really exciting.

Eddy · 11th May 2008, 21:15

ManU 2 - 0.

Looks like no stuttering now

Yippie! Utd win the Premiership for the 10th time in 16 seasons. Thats an awesome record! Now, Utd head to Moscow and hope to carry on the momentum into the CHampions League Final against Chelsea.

It was a fitting finale in the end as Utd won by 2 clear points. Chelsea could only manage a draw against Bolton at Stamford Bridge.

Let the beer flow

normally_crazy · 12th May 2008, 10:57

Yay !! Celebration time !!

The shocking thing - I saw some news channel today reporting on the EPL and according to them Chelsea won 1-0 !! What dumb guys !

finneyp · 12th May 2008, 11:03

Man Utd deserved to win for their class & consistency! Cheers to Fergie and his team!

Hope they win the Euro title too!

I had exactly the same thing in mind. Perhaps the organizers knew where it was heading to

and it remained in JJB.

The rules state that the cup be present at the ground where the team leading the table is playing. Even if I think for a moment that Utd would have lost the title (not easy to do maddy42; you are getting a lifelong Utd fan to write this; you owe me a few beers if we meet in future), the trophy would have been presented to Chelsea at their ground the next day.

@nkapoor777 Thanks buddy. Didnt know this info but now that i know it will treat you for beer when we do meet. By the way the match in Moscow is really going to be good.
On one side we got United trying for a revenge over the loss of the Epl game to chelsea few weeks back and on the other side we got roman who basically has his eyes set on this cup. Well will be great to watch this
