And we thought Ticketek was bad with their $5 administration fees in finals.

Yeah can you please go ahead and do that? United need to stay 18 titles for at least one more season!

Liverpool are miles away. Anyone who thinks otherwise is very diluded

Anyone catch the Spain vs. Czech Rep Euro qualifier? Amazing game -- the Czechs went ahead early, forcing the Spanish to attack and try to break down an 11 man defensive set-up and a gun keeper in Petr Cech (Chelsea's keeper). Spain's possession game is great, but when they go into a lead they can tend to be a bit "possession for it's own sake" to shut the game down and it gets a bit boring, but when they are behind and have to break a defence down, the creativity and variety guys like Iniesta, Xavi, Navas and Villa can pull our of their arse is amazing.

It stayed 0-1 till halftime (mainly through some ridiculous goalkeeping from Cech), so Spain really had to go to work in the second half, and for 30 minutes it was the most amazing display of creative passing you've ever seen, and Villa score two goals (one from a great jinky move, the other from a penalty after Iniesta is brought down in the box after non-stop pressure and 90% possession in the attacking third of the pitch), then it was back to boring possession football. They fell asleep themselves towards the end and the Czechs had a couple of half-chances they were too surprised to take, but in all, it was an amazing display of attacking football.

Lucky to be able to watch a team like this -- reminds me of the '70s and the dutch team all over again.
