That begs the question of how he was registered as a player though, surely?

AS were showing how a Barcelona player was offside during their game against Atletico Bilbao.

To make it look offside, one of Bilbao's players was Photoshopped out of the picture.
Please note that Mid Lothian is based on fantasy. Any references to anything/one/where that exists is completely coincidential.

Fancy an embassy in ML? Click me for details. (PS - I'll return the favour.)
I am usually rewriting stuff about Mid Lothian - just because it's true today isn't necessarily true tomorrow.

Figured I'd see you in here after that scoreline.

I wonder if people will still be talking about Uniteds poor away form?

yeah...was really shocked by the score line...I don't know if its a shaky defence or crap goalie to be honest...seems to be a combo of the two...we have been leaking ridiculous amounts of goals these last few years...although (luckily) we have been lethal up front.

4 nil v Wigan...I'd have thought that would have been a given to be honest...well a win anyway...

Shame about Dean Richards...only 36... :(

GOD! NO! Wojciech Szczesny, what a bloody idiot! Paid up by the Chinese gangsters who own Birmingham City, I tell you. Nobody not bribed would run miles out of his box to tackle a striker, not one! And that defender, and whoever the Hell was meant to be right-back when Obafemi Martins kept tearing down the wing with loads of space- it could've been 4-1 at the end.

Why, oh why, oh why do THEY get to win a trophy? When, Monsieur Houllier, are we going to win a trophy? Will I still be alive to see Villa's first actual trophy (InterToto 2001 doesn't count) since I was 2? I highly doubt so.

On the other hand, I, as a spurs fan, was delighted with the result.

I think this loss could be the spark for Fab to leave for Barca, as they are seriously interested in him and would give Jeffren and Millito to Arsenal, I mean don't you agree Fabregas has sorta outgrown Arsenal?

If they don't win anything this season then I think he probably will leave, yeah.
