Now the Prem has well started, it’s time to have a first look at our Fantasy Footie League.
We have 32 participants, competing for the $500 prize, so far. Of course it’s never too late to join in and much can change quickly in this game.
After 6 gameweeks, Funky Toon F.C. and Riverdale United have taken a clear early lead, and Funky Toon F.C. could still score points today when Newcastle tries to add another victory to their not too bad balance this year. After the jump, at the end of the entry, a screenshot of the Top #20 so far.
With the Champions League starting tomorrow, of course we also launch another league, for the UCL only. ((only for fun this time!))
Join this league at the official official UEFA site and after you have signed up and created your team, use the code
111162-18831
to join this league.
And now to the funnier parts. John Terry.

Instead of continuing to report about the still not concluded Tevez deal, today I get to announce some Manchester United Blog news. Yes, this is the [be-earlied] announcement I had already mentioned a while ago.
The runner-up will win a mystery prize, which even I don’t know.
The owner of this blog, Mark, is not only a blog network owner, but also Red Devil Fan To The Death Fan and he sponsors our Fantasy Footie League.
Thanks Mark!
To join our league, sign up at the official Fantasy Premier League and create your team.
Once you have created your team (no need to worry if you’re an early joiner, until the season starts you can make as many transfers as your little heart desires ;-)), you can join our ManUtd Blog League.
To join our league, click the League link in the upper right navigation block (the one with the red links and grey Budweiser background, the links sadly aren’t too readable) and then use the code 6734-2729. You’ll automatically join our league after having entered this code and hit [enter].
May the best team win!
And you better create an awesome team, because one of the early participants to our Fantasy Football LEague is no one less than Ahmed Bilal, who does not only run ManU blog RedRants, but also SoccerLens
Rules:
The rules are simple: everyone can participate, but only one team pro player. No hidden midnames or team in the wife’s name. We will check this and if cheaters get caught all their teams will be banned from our League. That’s all.
Maybe, if you’re an Arsenal or Chelsea fan, participating might not be the best idea, because you’ll have to deal with one more loss at the end of next Season.
Once more, the code to join the League: 6734-2729.

I know that the owner of this site, Mark, still has a nice surprise to come for the next season of our Dream Theater blog, but that’s not the only thing that gets me excited.
The end of June is coming closer and that means that the pre-season is about to start!
Once we’ll have reached mid next week, we’ll finally be able to focus on our Red Devils again! Last weeks have been really hard and hardest of all was not to focus on all the rest… the Henry saga, the City soap and both Chelsea’s and Liverpool’s inability to significantly improve their squad. I’m sure it would have been a blast, but we’ll have time enough over the next 11 months to do so. 
In 4 weeks we are on our Asia Tour, in 6 weeks it’s time for the Charity Shield.
I hope some when in between those two events we can announce the news for this site. And I hope next season will bring us among the most read and important English football blogs. I surely hope to bring my views on our magnificent team and it’s foreseeable awesome new season! And of course I hope you’ll enjoy those views too.
I have been thinking a little about what we could do for this blog to make Season 2007-2008 a success and that’s where I need your help! Tell us in the comments what you’d love to see on Manchester United Blog over the next months and we’ll look to implement it. Those are my thoughts so far:
- Player interviews would be awesome, but the guys most of time are very busy and not that easily to approach for interviews. Still, I will try. Every help here is of course appreciated.
- A Manchester United wiki, starting with player pages. With time and your help, we could easily build the most extensive online ManUtd. encyclopedia.
- Guest bloggers : been to a ManU event or play in a youth league? Has your ManU fan club organized a cool event? If you want to write an entry about, leave a comment (make sure to include a valid email so we can get back to you).
- Regular polls.
- A ManUtd. photo gallery. Seen one of our stars and snapped a quick shot, been to a game and taken pics. We could share them in a gallery.
I can think of many more things, but now it’s up to you guys. Let us know, so we can prepare the next term and make this site rock!
One more thing: I’ll be at Old Trafford next week watching paint dry for a cricket Twenty/20 game. Leave a comment if you’re going to be there!

For Sir Alex Ferguson, obtaining the Champions League Cup is the next stop for the United Reds. While they fell short due to injuries to a couple of their players, it is obvious that the team is headed in that direction and only time will tell. After talks of impending player transfers coming their way and leaving enough time for the healing period to its key players, it will be all systems go in the coming months as the United Reds will be once again in harness.
Â
The Reds have proven to be a team to reckon with despite the various obstacles that the team has faced. Getting that far with what they have is an accomplishment that Ferguson has readily appreciated and lauded. One can just think of what would become of the Reds team once all players are up and about. A scary thought for their opponents and a wondrous one for Ferguson and company.

The charity match between the United Reds and Marcelo Lippi’s Europe IX drew praises from all throughout, led by Sir Alex Fergusson calling it a “fantastic success”. The match was held in celebration of the 50th year of United in European competition. United went up against a selection of the finest players in the game today which was won by United 4-3 thanks to the efforts of Wes Brown and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The match drew praises as well from former Italy World Cup winning coach Lippi, who stated that the match was fitting to celebrate 50 years of joint celebration since the Treaty of Rome.
There was no pressure at all for everyone on hand as the atmosphere was totally relaxing. Fans, both young and old got treated to a classic match of football on a different level. Fans and players on hand played their part in making the event memorable and certainly it would be one that would be best remembered for years to come.
