Interesting coincidence

Just saw this on another site:

1978
Wales win the Grand Slam in Rugby
The Pope Dies
Liverpool lose in the League Cup final to the eventual League
Champions that year{Forest}
Liverpool win the European Cup

2005
Wales win the Grand Slam in Rugby
The Pope Dies
Liverpool lose in the League Cup final to the eventual League
Champions that year{Chelsea}
Liverpool win the European Cup???????

Although more likely they'll get hammered 4-0 tonight!

Frank McLintock (sorry for swearing) was our manager...

Do I need to say any more?

I've backed Liverpool to win the Champions League @ 33/1,fear the worst tonight though without Steven Gerrard :-(

 

[Joe_Fox]

33 quid aint bad odds - only 4 games left.

 

[MKFox]

liverpool 6/1 for the win tonight

 

[Joe_Fox]

Think Mr Fox needs to nip down the bookies for that one then.

PSV Eindhoven fans have another way of looking at it:

1988 Coach: Guus Hiddink
Pre-season: crap, hardly won a game
Eredivisie: Top place from first game to last
Amstel Cup: Winners
European Cup ¼-final 1st leg: draw against French team (Bordeaux)
European Cup ¼-final 2nd leg: draw against French team
Finished the season with: TREBLE
Pope: lived the whole year


2005 Coach: Guus Hiddink
Pre-season: crap, hardly won a game
Eredivisie: Top place from first game to last
Amstel Cup: ½-final soon
European Cup ¼-final 1st leg: draw against French team (Lyon)
European Cup ¼-final 2nd leg: draw against French team
Finished the season with: ONE ALREADY IN THE BAG!!
Pope: the difference that proves the rule!!

Joe, '33 quid' isn't the odds :roll:

It depends on how you look at it. I'm an optimist.
