By the way, I´m rooting for Liverpool.

Plus, it's Jonathan's favourite team (and not because of me)...

shame on you !! He was brought up in the shadow of Leyton Orient's ground. He should be supporting them.

Anyway, Gerrard is injured and Torres is walking wounded. Without those two Liverpool don't really have a team, so Lyon should make mincemeat of them.

I know, but I never got around to taking him to an Orient game...

None, I said it wasn't because of me :P

The story is he once went to a half-term vacation football school run by (surprise) the Leyton Orient and the last day they had them play a little tournament and they assigned them Premiership teams and his team got labelled "Liverpool"... Young boys are apparently very impressionable :P
