2nd leg won't be an easy game by any stretch, but with a stronger line-up, a more committed approach whilst taking into account Man Ure's very decent away form, they got more than a good chance of turning it round.
Bilbao never gave UTD a chance. Best moment of the match (aside from the sumptuos Van Percy-esque volley) was their RB waltzing straight through three UTD defenders like they weren't there... only to put his shot wide. The skill was 1970s Brasil though, would've been goal of the season:
On top of the amazing players, the fans gave Giggs a standing ovasion when he was subbed, cheered their players every time they chased down a lost a cause, applauded Rooney's goal, and gave the whole match an amazing atmosphere. Owned in every sense.
Well, it is always easier to applaud the other team when you're cruising to victory no?
Anyway no complaints about the result here, would have been nice to have added that one last trophy but was never the priority and Bilbao played lovely football and deserved to go through. I hope they go on and win it.
Does make me wonder quite how good Real are this year - everyone nay-says them but they're obviously doing something extremely right.
Positives: More time to focus on sorting it out for next year, could have been worse, we could have been knocked out by Sporting.
Ha! I forgot to mention that the Europa Cup looks like poo and everyone who touches it has poo fingers. Plus 7th does not equal mid table, it equals Liverpool. Hmm, that second point didn't really do me any favours.
Was excellent to see Cleverly back. Still not entirely sure about Pogba but he's still young so who knows.
I wonder at what stage the media will actually accept that the well worn argument that team for team the Premier League shits on all others is not possibly as grounded in reality as it once was. And by media I don't mean the Guardian.
I dunno if Pogba is properly ready for the first team, from what I read you were force to advance him to stop him being poached by Juve. But Fergie must rate him and he's touted as the 'next Vieira'.
Freal doe, I think it best, at this stage of the season, that we all concentrate on the league.
All these other continental types can pat deyself on the back until dey blue in the face but no-one is really going to do Barca, are they? The others are folling deyself.
bilbao is no joke
i feel bad for citeh
i like dimatteo but i still feel villas boas would be in his shoes...planning against his former rivals benfica
won that and kept his job...
i just hope romeu does'nt continue to lose out to lampard in the final stretch
lol! super star. I once saw two Donny C's at a record fair in zurich for a grand each. so i bought both, naturally. (of course not!! but the guy from zero zero was literally selling two of em. total facemelt...)
good to read skel, any chud send it my way big dawg! i flipped some of that last batch on this.
Yeah, liking "Sun Goddess". Very nice that. The others are a bit too repetitive for my 2p. BTW, did you know that the site puts a really annoying "BEEP" in, on every 30 seconds, over whatever's streaming? I mean, less concious headz may think it's part of the tunes...
Messi has scored as many goals in his last 7 games as Torres, Carroll and Suarez have in their last 103 combined.
FACT OF THE DAY.
Not to detract from man's goals but I would also like to qualify that with the fact that that league is less competitive, they all play in the sunshine and ting, and the matches are all bent. IMHO.
he should get at least an "executive producer" credit for supplying sampleable chud, right...?
Nice arrangement they got going on. I think you'd only get a thanks in the liner notes (if you're lucky) . Maybe if Skel had a particular raer and knew it was straight blazin' lava son (just add drums) he'd be probably working out some agreement.
There's a Bowie x Sunburst x Negro "Fashion" remix he did too, which he used my bass on. I can't remember how many different versions there are 'cos I gave him a load of loops but there was no money changing hands, JUSK 4 SHITZ AN GGLZ.
Mystery hum on bass is a mystery. I think it's a result of an amp emulator. I got a version where it's a bit Jaco in the chorus but it's probably too busy for it's own good.

Does it go like this?

Very impressive Bilbao side, doesn't reflect badly on United at all.
Turns out that they can't treat Europa League with the same life or death commitment that they do other tournaments. oh well.
Anyway no complaints about the result here, would have been nice to have added that one last trophy but was never the priority and Bilbao played lovely football and deserved to go through. I hope they go on and win it.

Doesn't really detract from the fact you again looked incredibly ordinary and got an absolute spanking of a midtable Spanish side over two legs.

Obnoxious football banta aside, on the plus side it was good to see Cleverly back and Pogba (sp?) looks like quite a prospect.

1. APOEL x Real Madrid
2. Marseille x Bayern Munich
3. Benfica x Chelsea
4. Milan ??x Barcelona
All set up for the Real vs Barca final then. & always good to see that had Arsenal made it through we would've once again drawn Barca.
All these other continental types can pat deyself on the back until dey blue in the face but no-one is really going to do Barca, are they? The others are folling deyself.
That's my excuse anyway.

On a lighter note, the breakdown on that Ray Munnings Funky Nassau is sick!
Some very nice chords going on.
good to read skel, any chud send it my way big dawg! i flipped some of that last batch on this.
I will sort out some libraries and lounge chud for you soon...
A fraction of a g.

I just bought one BTW (order 646370)
Keep it up!

@. Beatnik, which rubbish lib did you use?
There's some more crap to dump on you and you WILL take my don c on. It's signed, dude!
@ Jimster, sold the jazz hip trio now but I will upload to sound cloud when time permits.
he should get at least an "executive producer" credit for supplying sampleable chud, right...?
also, what is this don cunningham album? not the one that was reissued a few years back by ubiquity?

Zomby moves ;)

I think you need a DI box or something if you're going straight into your soundcard.
I copped one of these a while back to solve my amp sim buzzing woes:
I bought one of these a while back to record bass:
Not bad for the price.
But, to be honest, I pretty much now record all bass direct via this preamp:
