Wasn't Messi in his younger years regarder to be asocial to the point of moderate aspergers? I'm guessing thats where the chant comes from. Not particularly nice.

My god this cunt is bad at the football

41 goals in the equivalent to 83 games (7467 mins) for us. Canny.

Away at Palace last season.

Apparently they were fighting amongs themselves at one point. Nailed on it was between the neo-nazis and those parading the israel flags. Uniting various groups that hate stuff; a great idea.

So do you think the fans of whoever wins this will be enjoying winning a trophy or enjoying qualifying for the CL? I'd suggest anybody who fell into the latter category to be mug.

It's only important now it gets you into the one 'your' team play in, kk.

How is it pointless? Most teams either treat it as a consolation, a distraction, or a hinderance. It means the effort and quality is all over the place...bit like the league cup. It's certainly not a measurement of a team, it's too unpredictable. Of course you'll say that's a good thing, maybe it is for some but it's cheapened by the teams that don't want to be in it and it won't change until CL teams don't drop in for 3rd place and goes back to knockout right the way through. It's a lot more important now that CL qualification is guaranteed by winning it. It's important anyway for the teams that win it. You know what with it being a trophy and everything. I know you'd probably not realise that from your ivory tower of endless glory hunting success. Throwing in the token prize like that to try and make up for the terrible branding, formatting and scheduling decisions they've made to fuck up the UEFA Cup in the first place is a load of shite. Sorry but pretty much everytime you talk about football you sound like the typical aloof, Man Utd glory hunter. Everybody knows one.

Also it produces so many good games. Bilbao - Torino right now on BT is brilliant.

Europa League provided fans of teams who go far in it/win it better memories than plodding about in the league ever did I'd imagine. Great competition and its ridiculous the way English teams turn their noses up at. Well I say that, that always seems to be the excuse when they get dumped out anyway.

He played in qualifiers for them but Sparta haven't been in the CL proper since Henry scored that brace against them.
-
The last time a side progressed from 2 goals down in a home first leg was Cruyff's Ajax in 1969. It's definitely over.

English clubs really showing they're spending those billions well

Tbf I'd be far more disappointed if my future son decided to be a 'keeper than if he was gay.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_FIFA_World_Cup#Venues This really shows how fucking ridiculous it is btw. All but one of the stadiums in the greater Doha area The other one at the top: Ash-Shamal (Arabic: الشمال) is a municipality in the state of Qatar. Its capital is called Madinat ash-Shamal and it is considered to be one of the major cities in Qatar.[2] The name means "City of the north" - although the population is barely over 5,000. Ash Shamal will be home to the proposed 45,330-seat Al-Shamal Stadium, one of 12 venues used in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
