zmurko 7,622 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Champions League starts today. Doesn't look like any spectacular matches are scheduled for 1st round, except perhaps Barcelona-Juventus and maybe Liverpool-Sevilla and Tottenham-Dortmund. And I'm sure Ally will be rooting for his favourite green team that face the most expensive player today.

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Important win for Scotland last night. We've got Georgia tonight and Ireland on Monday, both must win games. Without Bale for both games, apparently a calf injury, but he looked OK for Real last time I watched them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banketelli 3,655 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) We are extremely close to a playoff spot. Looked shit 4 matches ago but after winning them all, we actually have the chance to take 1st place on the last match day. Though Poland would have to lose home against Montenegro without Jovetić. Not gonna happen. Just hoping we can avoid Italy and Portugal in the playoff and Eriksen continues to deliver. 7 goals in the last 9 international fixtures.

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Eriksen is a class act, probably one of the best in the world in his position. Will always be underrated while playing for Spurs and winning nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmurko 7,622 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 94th minute goal pretty much ruined all hopes for us making the playoffs. There's still a theoretical chance, but we would have to beat Scotland and Slovakia would need to draw or lose against Malta. Probability of that is about the same as for example someone like Greece or Denmark winning the Euro championship... oh wait... Nah, I hope Scotland wins and makes the playoffs. We'll just join other football super powers not making it to the WC, like Argentina. 1 Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zmurko 7,622 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well done with the bet! I'm just a bit salty, as I dont think England really deserved to win to be honest. With all the talent they have and all of them playing top level football in Premiere league, they look really mediocre. And I swear they have a different manager every time I see them.

They take all the headlines. Plus Eriksen isn't named Eriksinho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they were poor. If Slovenia had a bit more quality, they could have really punished them. England always look as though they can't be bothered, but the same players have great games for their clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford1872 2,580 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I’m not arsed yet, we’ll probably draw against Z’s lot and even if we win it we’ll probably be the lowest 2nd place/if not lose the playoff. It’s the Scottish way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the Scottish way. That place will probably go to a team from group D (Wales/Ireland) or H (Bosnia/Greece), though it will be a close one even if you win. I'm fully expecting a 0:0 on Scotland:Slovenia match and around 50.000 l of beer drank by Scottish fans in upcoming days in Ljubljana. They're usually top class, as its mostly "older" and "civilized" crowd. Probably best away fans in the world.

Personally find the whole walking about in kilts thing rather ridiculous but then again I hate Scottish nationalism and all that so that factors in. Best away fans I’ve seen were probably Inter Milan fans at ibrox. Scotland fans generally don’t like Rangers much anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Another defeat for Swansea, another game without a shot on target. 7 goals in 14, no goals in November and only 3 teams in Premier League history have scored fewer. Toothless, no threat, all 11 players behind the ball hoping to grind out a draw. That's not football. No Premier League quality. Relegate us now. Clueless Clement out.

Crawford1872 2,580 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) We beat Aberdeen last night to avoid losing 3 on the bounce. Still no manager but it was nice to leave happy (and not early) for once in case anyone is wondering how c*ltic have such a long unbeaten run it’s thanks to 86th minute penalties like this if they’re in trouble, the sfa are embarrassing Edited November 30, 2017 by Crawford1872 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zmurko 7,622 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Oh wow, just reading an article on Thursday's europa league match between Maribor and Rangers. I didn't know Gerrard took over as a manager? Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
