Good win for us last night. There was only about 400 French fans but they were doing a fair bit of kicking off, wrestling with the stewards and trying to rush our fans. They threw a flare into a Newcastle department store as well
I'm glad and at the same time scared that you guys won with such a big score. Glad because I like Newcastle/PL more than Bordeaux/Ligue 1, but scared because if you guys win with such numbers against a team that battered us with 4-0, it basically means we're going to have a really hard time against you guys.
I basically gave up the EL after the Bordeaux game, and I still see it quite negative for us, but I must say Maritimo was really really weak. Wow, how did you ever lose points there?! So weak honestly, we should have won with 3-0 at least.

Also, gives me goosebumps every time.

Jose Mourinho on Mario Balotelli in an interview with CNN: “Mario was good fun. I could write a book of 200 pages of my two years in Inter with Mario, but the book would be not a drama. The book would be a comedy! I remember one in Kazan. We went to Kazan in the Champions League. In that match, I had all my strikers injured. No Milito, no Eto’o. I was really in trouble and Mario was the only one. Mario gets a yellow card in minute 42 or 43. So, when I go to the dressing room at half time, I spent, I would say, 14 minutes of the 15 speaking only for Mario. “Mario, I cannot change you. I cannot make a change. I don’t have a striker on the bench. Don’t touch anybody. Play only with the ball. When we lose the ball, no reaction. If somebody provocates you, no reaction. If the referee makes a mistake, no reaction. Mario, please” Minute 46, red card!”

Newcastle being sponsored by legalised loan sharks. Wonderful.

Newcastle have really crossed the line this time.

They're a bunch of cunts and I can't say I'm happy to be associated with them. But then bearing in mind how many teams are sponsored by gambling websites, how your lot are sponsored by this mob of bastards and how the entire league is sponsored by LIBOR fiddling Barclays there are very few clubs who get their money from firms which are paragons of virtue.

Bruge REALLY don't want us to be over there. Two hotels that a lot of Newcastle fans are staying in (two miles apart) have started cancelling rooms booked for the game claiming 'unexpected work'. So not only are there going to be thousands of Newcastle fans without tickets over there, there's also going to be thousands wandering around without accommodation. You had to book your train tickets first in order to apply for match tickets, Eurostar is over £100 and non-refundable, so it's not like they're going to succeed in getting people to give up on going over.

Easy question, none.

I still haven't understood why people watch soccer when they could be playing it themselves instead.

Cause they are bad at playing it.

Why don't i sing?
Cause i have a terrible voice, still i watch music videos and listed to music.

Now on topic.
Not a Soccer fan but i can watch it with friends or dad.
Don't have a favorite team.

We won...we actually won...
Same reaction for me, but against Serbia. 0-3 IN Serbia, amazing result, especially if you take in consideration that Serbia only lost 1 in 27 games at home (including matches against Spain, France, England, ....)
This Tuesday we're playing against Scotland, shouldn't be a problem!

Why would they need Busquets when they have Toure? Don't get me wrong, I think he's pretty good but that money could be better used in another position. But whatever it's better for me if city waste their money and don't improve much :toot:

Toure doesn't really play defensive mid or atleast not this season hes been attacking more. It's obvious that Mancini is trying to get a really good defensive midfielder after he failed getting De Rossi he signed Javi Garcia.
Javi Garcia hasn't really played that well he hasn't been particularly bad but he's not contributing as much as he could.
