Nova Carmina Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share Posted September 3, 2022 Liverpool . . . sigh . . .

(and not the dreamy wistful sigh of teenager seeing a heartthrob, but the heavy mournful sigh of a middle aged man too emotionally invested in sport) So, is that like the noise I make when I get out of a low chair? If I was in the States, there`s no way I`d support a PL side. I`d pick a top side from mainland Europe where the jeopardy is so much less. PL matches are just too hard these days - the rising (financial) tide has indeed raised all boats. But don`t pretend you`re not happy with matching Brentford`s start to the season, and having the same number of wins as Bournemouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten more league games before the World Cup - you`ll be at the very worst 4th, possibly 3rd, but almost certainly 2nd by then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never fear Nova, we have City at home next Saturday and that should put our equal-point status in a very real, very frightening perspective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkrush Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Cracovia 3 Rakow 0 Where did this come from? Part of the answer lies with the goalkeeper Kovacevic, rumored to be leaving for Benfica for 7 million euros, having a bad night. Even Lewandowski didn't go to Borussia for that much. Rakow should take the money and run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbanezJem Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I hadn`t followed all yesterday`s afternoon games as closely as I sometimes do, so watched highlights this morning. I hate to be someone that goes on about referees... but some of the decisions were much worse than before VAR existed. They`ve somehow found another guy who`s got it all wrong to advise the first guy, who at least got it wrong in real-time speed. To get those decisions, with the benefit of viewng the action numerous times, we have to realise that we are dealing with some unusual people. The only person I ever knew that ever went into refereeing was the kid that wore his mum`s underwear to school. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbanezJem Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Four ex-Arsenal players in the Marseille side (Alexis Sanchez will be absent, but still...). Add this to their 1992 European Cup fraud and let`s not forget what they put Popeye Doyle through in French Connection II. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
