"Man Utd the best??? DOnt Make Me Laugh!!! Rangers won the Scottish League by a even bigger margin and they do it almost every year!"

What a dumbass comment!
Rangers won the league and deservedly so. But only because thet had absolutely no competion.

I'm a Celtic supporter and I'm the first to admit we were CRAP. The worst season in years and we've had some bad ones! Why not get a bit of knowledge about the game before shooting your mouth off!

Anyway on with the topic.

BEST TEAM:Much as I hate to say it, but probably Man UTD.
HONOURABLE MENTIONS: I can't disagree with Schumacher on this except maybe to add Man City and Calais and remove Rangers for the above reason.- Real, Bayern, Deportivo, Valencia, Lazio, Galatasary
WORST TEAM: Celtic, so much potential but so bad http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/mad.gif
DISHONOURABLE MENTIONS: Man UTD for not playing in the Englich FA Cup.
SURPRISE TEAM OF THE YEAR: Galatasaray
HONOURABLE MENTIONS: Leeds Utd, Ok they faded a bit at the end but for a young team they did pretty well.
NICEST STORY OF THE YEAR: Henrik Larsson playing again so soon after breaking his leg.
WORST MOMENT OF THE YEAR: "The events in Turkey and Denmark, and various Turks and Englishmen trying to justify their actions here." Well said
That's enough for now

Mark,

I admit we did have a terrible season, but I wouldnt say we where the worst team in the world.

English teams only...

Best Team - Man Utd

Worst Team - Wimbledon

Surprise Team - Liverpool

Nicest Story - the respect shown by fans of all teams for Kevin Speight and Chris Loftus after...

Worst Story - a football match turning to death, and Galatasaraay's appalling behaviour afterwards, expecting a win or neutral ground. Also UEFA not banning Gala from the UEFA Cup.

Player - Harry Kewell, Kevin Phillips, Roy Keane, Nigel Martyn

Worst Player - Taibi

Manager - Houllier, O'Leary
