Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Ouch.
Pool will still finish 4th. I predict it. Why am I so confident? Well last season it was in Villa's hands to finish fourth, but they lacked the experience to finish the job and bottled it at the end. Villa aren't mentally stronger this season. Everton are too far behind despite having a good squad. Sp*rs wont pick up enough points from the teams above and around them. City have 11 egos on the pitch. Sunderland have a chance, but do they have the oomph to make the final push (remember how fragile Bent was a Sp*rs?).
But, that's not why I stopped by. I came to see how Loius is feeling after Bordeaux topped their (tough) group tonight.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Extremely excited about it! It's not often one gets to see Bordeaux ahead of Munchen and Juventus. I didn't think we could pull it off. No hands this time either!Originally Posted by Psychonaut
We had qualified already, but needed to secure first place. The result would also decide whether Bayern or Juventus would be second. You just can't lose with a prospect like that. You know it is going to be an exiting game in its own right, AND you are guaranteed to see either crying Germans or Italians at the end. Sheer bliss.
Bayern Munchen, I should add, defeated Bordeaux in the UEFA Cup final during Zidane's final season at Bordeaux. A fact our dear lederhosen-clad friends reminded us of by bringing along thousands of UEFA Vase copies with them last month. Then we defeated them twice. Tonight, they were dependent on a Bordeaux win just to stay in the race for next round. They came grovelling to us to please please play with our A team so that we would beat Italian giants Juventus. Juventus pleaded otherwise.
There is something in my mind that is deeply satisfied by the view of pleading Italians and grovelling Bavarians.
These are great times, rivalling the spells in the eighties and the period of Zidane. Bordeaux is doing better financially, there is some more spending power in French football in recent years, us and Marseille have got our act together so it's not just Lyon alone anymore.
Most importantly, Blanc is an absolute genius coach. Fantastic results, great football. Bordeaux is a big club, wealthy compared to the champions of most countries and all that, but we're not Man Utd or Madrid. So these are thoroughly exciting times.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Let 'em dream a bit. They're cute.
L'OL, L'OM and Bordeaux have to play midweeks in the Champions League. The internationals are from these clubs too, who've played qualification matches throughout the world.
Auxerre will float back to mid-table later in the season.
Lol @ 'pool's November end of season party.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Those on the continent aware that some hideous approximation of football matches do indeed still take place in far-flung outposts of humanity will know what Rangers are. Not just that they are Scotland's shame, but ever proponents of an agonising form of the game. To this typically reactionary one, it is undoubtedly an indicator of the continued decline of the SPL into farce that they had managed to remain unbeaten domestically for 25 matches. 25. [Cue laughter from Romania.]
No more. And I feel it fitting not only that they were reminded that they are a sorry excuse for a Champions League team by the right side, but such an undeniably poor side.

Link. For those who haven't seen it. (But, no doubt everyone has by now.)Jimmy Bullard you crafty sod you!
So, looks like we've joined the end of season party with the Liverpuddlians; ah well always next season.
As an aside, I wish our fans were more like Sunderland's or Wolves'; none of this booing rubbish, just 100% support all game long.

World Cup seeds are picked:
England
South Africa
Brazil
Spain
Netherlands
Italy
Germany
Argentina
Looking at the pots, the US will likely get grouped with Brazil, Nigeria, and Portugal if all goes per usual. We're in the same pot as North Korea, so no luck there.

I want France to draw the US. We'll beat you anytime at football - both sorts with Henry playing.

Hey, we were promised the World Cup trophy in 2010 by the USSF! Don't give up now!Yeah, god forbid. Just when I mortgaged my house and betted it all on America winning this World Cup.At some point we have to best our 1930 WC result...

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
The little fat man will see his country grind out a couple of 1-0's in the same manner they did against Uruguay. It won't be pretty, and can only hope one of their matches is against Serbia, so we can see a proper vengeance thrashing.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Argentina are my pick to win it... it's destiny
Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Im just saying, with a good draw we could probably advance to the next round.Yeah, god forbid. Just when I mortgaged my house and betted it all on America winning this World Cup.
I want France to draw the US. We'll beat you anytime at football - both sorts with Henry playing.
Do I think the US could beat those 3 teams? Not likely
Do I think the US could lose to the same 3? More likely
It's just a tough draw like we got in 06.

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
I seriosly doubt the thrashing part. It's still Argentina, little fat man or no. But, on the plus side, we can only improve from the last time we've played
That's the good thing about hitting rock bottom, you can go only up.
Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
I can live with that...but instead Brasil i would prefer England or the Netherlands...

Re: LEN Teh Footy God's Footballodium
Yes, as I'd tend to think as well, but then my mind wanders back to that disgrace that scraped past Peru... and I begin to dream.
In other trivial news, Dan Petrescu has applied to be the next Scotland manager. [Along with a few drunken neds.] Quite why you'd jump for that when you can get a decent club job after [almost] taking the might of Unirea Urziceni to the knockout stages of the cashcow, I don't know.
