Group A: Auxerre or Livorno (Livorno must win in France, Auxerre win could knock Mccabi Haifa down to third) Group B: Leverkusen or Besiktas (Leverkusen vs Besiktas, Leverkusen need win) Group C: SC Braga or Slovan Liberec (Braga must beat Grasshoppers, Liberec don't play) Group D: Lens, Osasuna or Herenveen (All have 4 points, Herenveen must win at home to Lens, Osasuna need a point in Parma) Group E: Feyenoord or Wisla (Feyenoord must win at home to Wisla) Group F: Ajax or Zulte Waregem (Zulte Waregem vs Ajax, Waregem need a draw to stay 2nd, Ajax need win to take 2nd) Group G: Anyone from Hapoel Tel-Aviv, Rapid Bucuresti, Mlada Boleslav or PSG (too many combinations to type out) http://www.uefa.com/competitions/uefacup/Standings/index.html

Cretin, one of their games is against us. The dilemma!

He was a panic buy, yes, but for once it's a gamble that has paid off...so far

10 days till next league game now, we can rest a few up in Frankfurt - we need a point and then there's no waiting on Fener's results in Vigo. It's good that we have a long time after Frankfurt though till next league game because we have to make our home games count. Haha I bet Sean Davis is regretting saying "Titus Bramble" on soccer Am the other week (and again mentioned yesterday) Bramble absolutely crunched him!

Not sure I'd have gone near him at that point, did you see how mental he looked, you could tell the adrenaline was flowing and he almost made a major fuck-up immediately after the re-start, which could have gifted them a goal, he was that pumped. To tell the truth I was jumping around the room myself. For some reason I was confident that we'd win that all the way through, even when they scored. I was sure we'd get a late goal and for once I was right. Yeah, as Skirge would put it, he's finally removed that other dog's cock from his beloved dog's arse. And he's really happy about it!

If we're level on points is it goal difference or head to head record like in the Champions League? If it's head to head then a win tonight would see us finish top regardless.

A draw would be very nice

To be fair he plays on the right side of a diamond, he's not being played as an out and out winger and has always been a defensive midfielder, surely this clued up Bremen fan should know this?

So Oliver says Roeder doesn't want Nobby at right back because of Nene (the Vigo left winger) or something...so putting a player who has never played there is the obvious solution :roll:

I don't understand why Roeder is racking his brain thinking of a solution when Nobby has played right back several times for club and country - it's not a tough decision to make!

Yes as long as you promise not to make another poll

Sweet sweet jesus

Given Taylor Ramage Bramble Zog Solano Parker Emre Milner Sibierski Luque Resting Dyer and Martins, and working on the theory that it will be 4 at the back. N'Zogbia hates left back though and I'm really surprised it's not Solano at right back. Meh, that's probably not even close.

So...N'Zogbia at left back...maybe?

Save Dyer and Parker for Pompey, Bring Sibierski in, Zog on the left, Duff at left back, Milner for Nobby, Butt and Emre in the middle, hope Martins can get a goal for confidence. Bob's your uncle

If Bramble's errors were only giving away free kicks then the odds of every single one being punished is a lot less likely than his multiple air kicks/inability to mark/lack of concentration.

I only listened but the criticism of Nobby sounds harsh, considering we were away from home he spent 99% of the match defending he seemed to do alright, nothing special admittedly. Mick Lowes went off it at Martins repeatedly, saying "he doesn't even look like he knows where he is" then to come on here and him getting rated at 8's and 9's in a huge extreme. Personally I think Mick Lowes dislikes him intensely, he's always having a dig at him. Can't believe Dyer and Martins lasted the 90 considering they were both supposedly knackered after an hour, can't believe how bland Duff is and I can't believe we just took a point from the Emirates!

Rumour was posted on readytogo not so long ago http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=175615 Does that make it more likely or even less likely?

Judging from the nufc.com match report from City and Oliver's height-o-meter, I'm pretty sure we have an interest in Distin - although I doubt it'd tied up to be honest, I think Oliver will have been on a fan appeasement mission.

Have you read the nufc.com match report from Man City? Something like "Sibierski may have swapped one average club for another, and his fromer team mate Distin might yet do the same.." Bet the Zog told you that already, given you're now a friend of the players

Phil Cave?

Start to clean up that mess you've left everywhere Pievert
