I love a bit of local rivalry in English football.
The Cypriot fights the Irishman over Liverpool or Man United.

Ah reminds me (in a weird way) of the old joke.
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez sends scouts out round the world looking for a new striker to hopefully win Liverpool the title. One of his scouts informs him of a young Iraqi striker who he thinks will turn out to be a true superstar. So the scout flies to Iraq to watch him, and is suitably impressed, and arranges for him to come over to Anfield.
Two weeks later Liverpool are 4-0 down at home to Man Utd with only 20 minutes left. Benitez gives the young Iraqi striker the nod to go on. The lad is a sensation, scores 5 in 20 minutes and wins the game for Liverpool. The fans are delighted, the players and coaches are delighted and the media love the new star. When he comes off the pitch he phones his Mum to tell her about his first day in English football.
"Hi Mum, guess what?" he says. "I played for 20 minutes today, we were 4-0 down, but I scored 5 and we won. Everybody loves me, the fans, the players and the media, they all love me".
"Great," says his Mum, "let me tell you about my day. Your father got shot in the street, your sister and I were attacked and beaten, and your brother has joined a gang of looters, while you were having a great time".
The young lad is very upset. "What can I say Mum, I'm so sorry."
"Sorry?" says his Mum "Its your bloody fault we moved to Liverpool in the first place!"

I'm not english...I think its aparent. No offence though, just a correction.
Football is crap in Cyprus...more fights and politics than football. I grew up supporting Liverpool more than any other team and got more involved when I went to live in Liverpool. I got even more involved, in fact hooked, when I went to watch a few games in Anfield.
Actually I lived in Liverpool for 6 years and saw more crime with my own eyes in manchester.
And by the way, I called the all-in...and obviously won

I'd just like to correct my earlier post and change my outsider prediction to Sevilla.
20/1, I might just have a shot at them.
Tempted to go for them to win AND Villareal to win UEFA cup. Lots of moneys if that comes in.
EDIT: OK you saw it here first, £5 on Sevilla at 20/1 and £5 on Villareal (UEFA cup) at 16/1. I can't work out how to put it on a double bet, so I've emailed William Hill, lol. Apparently though, £5 on that would ship me £1600 if they both won.

No, what do they have on these days? Is it still just the scottish games? Cos I wouldn't watch Dundee Utd vs Motherwell on a Monday night if they paid me.
