Back to our old selves then.

Think everyone will tbh

If Pardew goes with Marveaux and Ben Arfa from the beginning...oh my.

Looks like Mancini's doing his best to undo the "good" work he did last season.

A phrase that idiot Andy Townsend says every single fucking time an incident like that happens

I've not paid attention to this at all. So yeah, I'm officially giving up.

That was real, very weird atmosphere in a weird stadium. They had 4,000 or so mad fans behind one goal who are up there with the best support I've ever saw, just bounced and sung the whole game. Then the rest of the crowd were silent, we were at the other end in a corner making the other main noise. Great trip in a beautiful city which was made massively difficult with delays due to snow. Will post a bit more about the trip when I get some time, just got back an hour or so ago. Was there a guy with a megaphone/microphone in the front? Tis the Bordeaux Ultras if so. I though I heard someone on a microphone. They were fantastic. Good to hear that they're as brilliant as ever

Can't wait tbh. Knockout stages

Only just seen this. What a terrible idea. This better be a one off like (mind you, wouldn't put it past UEFA to insist on another one after 2020).

Stuff from the Connemara Facebook page:

I knew I'd done something wrong

Not bad. Got a decent chance of progressing to the last 16 imo...

Thought I'd try my hand at making one of these threads. Draw will do me.

Advise him to go to Café de Sport and Byron Bay. Canny places otherwise one can drown their sorrows at the Connemara - I did that many a time.

I alternate so guess that means both!

So shit game then?

My mate will be pleased. He's been going on about Ranger for weeks.

No, no, no, no, no.

Ah f***'s sake (if true that is). I'd much rather start Campbell.

(Will probably be one of the young'uns starting).

Pardew's starting himself in defence?

That's a shame.

Ha, only just realised the transfer window is about a month away. More rumours plz.

It's more of a sightseeing town. The vineyards are quite a bit away but a walk around town will usually do.
