  1. We all know that when England get anything approaching a top quality player they must rush to proclaim him the best in the world. And much liek Celtic, repeat something often enough and it becomes fact. So for the past few years they've been proclaiming Cole the best left back in the world because he's good at attacking and plays for a team that mostly dominate games so he gets to show off his attacking. Now that Bale in recent weeks has put in immense displays of attacking full back play and at the highest level in Europe, above a level Cole has ever shown, where does that leave England and their desperated claims of having the best player in the world in a given position. FWIW, he wasn't even the best prior to Bales pretty meteoric rise.
  2. He's not been there very long has he?
  3. Waa, waa, waaa. A club full of greeting babies.
  4. Gab Marcotti wrote a really interesting piece on Bayern Munich and German football in, I think, yesterday's Guardian. Their commercial sponsorship is more than Man U and Liverpools combined I think. They can get away with cheap tickets because they have many flush fans paying up to �£8000 a year for season tickets that include a free-lunch etc. Prices are perhaps low because generally speaking German tv rights are poor which Marcotti suggests is because Germans aren't prepared to pay for footy on tv, they don't want to drive them from games too. Sorry, way off topic though.
  5. I'll take any kind of positive result as that keeps us in the driving seat.
  6. Not seen it for a while now, but not all contact is a foul and my opinion at the time was no pen. A decision upheld by the panel who reviewed the whole issue. They agreed Craven's advice not to give it was correct. The only problem, aside from the fact that it was a farce in eventually making the correct call, is that it was a correct call given against Celtic.
  7. For the keeper clearly playing the ball?
  8. JJB no medium in stock (online). Is that correct re: Sports direct not doing name/number printing?
  9. Where's the cheapest place I can get this ordered online? Also prob want a name and number on the back. Ideally to arrive before weekend. Cheers Guys
  10. Anyone on Valencia?
  11. Fucking terrible!
  12. Or perhaps neither. Maybe some players are just injury prone. http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php The opposition having free reign to "do" Jelavic, Edu, Naismith or anyone in a Rangers shirt probably doesn't help.
  13. Maybe. Wattie disagrees. :fish:
  14. He beat you too it. And I don't think they are overrated. You don't routinely finish in the CL/UEFA places in Spain if you're not a quality side. It's like saying Arsenal aren't good because they can't break the Man U/Chelsea duoply down South.
  15. Drew 1-1 home to bottom of the table Zaragoza. An o.g. brought them level. Unsure if key players were rested: Both goals first half. Zaragoza played 22 mins + stoppage time with 10 men.
  16. Read elsewhere that a podcast this week mentioned only ourselves and Real Madrid remain the only European sides unbeaten in all competitions. I assume this applies only to Europe's top divisions.
  17. Hateley might well be right here, but it's pretty rare I listen to much he has to say these days.
  18. A police spokesman said: "Officers in Broxburn attended at an address following reports of a disturbance. Upon arrival there was no disturbance ongoing and no damage had been caused to the property. http://sport.scotsman.com/news/Antho...ies.6604707.jp
  19. A few of my favourite bits, from the first poster: And another: Comparing the SFA with Hitler and the Nazi's. Epic fail fail.
  20. Do we want a player Guengnon (sp) don't want? Unless the only reason they let him go was because they cannot afford him, in which perhaps compensation is fair?
  21. Though Pete does live in Holland.
  22. Who is this team Shelltic he keeps speaking of?
  23. Of course it fucking wasn't. Yet thanks to all Celtic's greeting it's almost agreed that they were somehow robbed. Moaning that a correct decision was given in a game they ultimately won. Fuckwits.
  24. �£500k was far from a great piece of business for him and many said as much at the time. A club desperate to sell meant we got far less than he was worth.
  25. Or a kick in the stones?
