    I like to think that we cost you any silverware this season. Yes, it's a mickey mouse cup but it's still ours.

    Sorry for the rubbish spelling / grammar people; been drinking since 12pm so not at my best! Went to a Sports dinner with John Barnes, Peter Shilton and Nobby Stiles so thought I'd share my thoughts...

    Nobby Stiles: What an absolute gent! Spoke to us for ages about his Utd career and how Duncan Edwards was the best player he ever saw but George Best was a genius unlike he's seen since. Lots of funny stories about him being a hard (not dirty) man of football, particularly relating to his game against France in 1966. Eddie Coleman was Stiles' hero.

    Peter Shilton: Diamond geezer - still not forgiven Maradonna for his 'hand of God' incident and don't think he ever will. However, he did say that Maradonna was the best player he ever played with or against. Isn't particularly fond of Paul Parker either whom he describes as 'very unlucky' (read: stupid) for the deflection! When Barnes talked about the Shilton v Clemence argument, he settled it by saying that when they were in training Shilton would end up black and blue but Clemence would stand by saying "I would have saved that in a game!

    John Barnes: Fantastic host AND did the John Barnes Rap!!! Said that the money in football was too great now; when he was managing Tranmere, they had a wage budget of £1m - the lowest in the league. The likes of Leeds had £8m so was never an even playing field.

    Barnes also made a good point about footballers. Eric Cantona with his seagulls and trawlers quote is hailed as a philosopher but Tony Adams (for example) would be hailed as a crackpot. Barnes also said that he would have been involved in the dentists chair back in '96 had he made the squad.

    Finally (and most crucially!) watch out for John Barnes doing his rap on the new Mars adverts. You heard it here first
