Many football league fans will be on awaiting 3pm today with great anticipation, with a hope that this is season is their team's season to shine, at this point everyone is even, and anything could happen. Fans of clubs in a less wealthy state will be hoping they can 'do a Burnley' whilst fans of the bigger clubs are expecting to breeze the division.

Here it all begins, some fans hopes and dreams will be crushed within the first 90 minutes, although bare in mind it's only the first...

...for my work five a sides to start again next wednesday... first few games I'll be unfit but hopefully will have my shooting boots on! 47 last season... I was averaging a hattrick per game up to the last few games of the season, but the ratio still ended up over 2 goals per game... record 7 goals in one outing.

What a game it was! I celebrated the night away and woke up this morning with one beamer of a smile!

Great game, full of incident! United definitely had the first half, and Chelsea were very lucky to equalise on half time, where we should have gone in 3-0 up. Chelsea no doubt had the second half, and also probably could have scored 3 too!

Extra time both sides had one blinding chance, Lampard hitting the bar and Giggs' shot cleared by a JT header with the keeper nowhere!...
