Went to the blades V Liverpool match today and waited for autographs afterwards. I got Liverpool players Daniel Agger, Bolo Zendon and Jose Reina. I also got Sheffield United players Phil Jagielka, Christian Nade and Nick Montgomerys autographs.

Way cool! I'm a huge Liverpool fan, but I gotta say Sheffield played their hearts out and deserved the draw, every bit!

Not being rude or anything but leela, you speak perfect English and know all about the UK Football squads. Are you really from India?

[leela]

Yeah, I'm sure, I'm Indian!

In reply to your statement - I'm a HUUUUUUUUUGE football buff. I've been following the EPL since I was around 10 (I'm now 13). The sport, especially the EPL, is very popular here in Asia. ESPN and Star Sports are the main sports channels available, and they cover a lot of football, so it's no surprise I'm obsessed!

As for the English part - thanks! It's just a myth that Asians (especially Indians) aren't that great at English. Where I live, in Chennai, 85% of the schools are English-medium. English is also a compulsory subject in EVERY school, even the non-English -medium schools. The aim of the government is to ensure that everyone is literate in English...which is a huge reason why the country's developing so rapidly.

No offense taken at all!

Im a Sheff Utd fan. We got bloody robbed. Penalty my arse... if it happened at the other end there was no way Styles would have given us a penalty.

I agree, Gerrard did a tad of play-acting. But seriously, a pat on the back for Sheffield. Think they'll be the next Wigan?

[The_Terrible_Toad_King]

I think well be the next Chelsea

[leela]

Hehe that really would be something!!! Go Blues! (they're my fave team)
