  1. I come back as I told you. Olympiakos scores with hand ball in the 89th minute. Pitch invasion by idiots follows. Match abandoned - against home team naturally. Those characters have no brains whatsoever - they never will. The idea of inserting brains to the heads of hooligans is futile and there can be no more discussions about it. The ref. announced his decision to abandon just now.
  2. The managers are considered fair game by football players, even when the managers are 100% demonstrably right. Luiz staying at Chelsea was a borderline situation and Mou decided against it.
  3. Come on ! Remember the one who tried to rob the eurobank in 2002 ? It was after he backed REAL to beat CSSKA, 120,000 euros.
  4. Here is what I imagine will happen: Mourinho will start cautiously, as we are already ahead. Then they will have possession but will leave many gaps and Costa-Hazard-Cesc will miss at least 26 open goal chances. 5 more times they will be saved by the woodwork. In the end they will score through Ibra after 86 minutes. Courtois clearance finds Ibra's *ss and goes in.
  5. As leagues go, France is an interesting one. Also did well in world cup. EPL is one sided this year (we made it so !). In Germany there is no league to talk about. In Italy we fall asleep every time.
  6. Unhappily it's a primordial instinct quite widespread. I used to have a friend but I had no idea. Some 20-30 years ago I think he made a comment when the tv was broadcasting something about events in the USA - one of the usual black youths versus the fuzz situations and I said something in reply. Looked insignificant, I don't even remember, but sometime three years ago the neo-nazis created a political party and were elected to parliament (whereas previously they did not exist- there were 30 or 40 odd characters only). So he became a supporter. Some others too. So I said "listen here, 20 of you are already in prison for criminal offenses - if that's 5 more than should be the case or 5 less, go to the minister of public order and enquire - but I have no longer business with you".
  7. Come on. Stop talking about crazy ones. You become yourself crazy if you do that. Last week in Greece, Panathinaikos - Olympiakos, flares - Molotov cocktails. Panathinaikos win the match then Greek FA deducts their 3 points. Because of that, the new minister said no matches for one week and when they start again the first flare thrown in means the match is abandoned and the home side forfeits the points. Next week -March 11- we (AEK Athens) play a hot cup derby against Olympiakos. First match ended 1-1 and the two teams hate each other. The minister may prove a happy go lucky character like others before him but as it's a fresh rule, they are going to make use of it for a while. I bet with any bookie that AEK will be penalized because of one idiot. We will be here and I will tell you what happened (well, if they do and they are not ahead at the time, it does n't matter).
  8. Go to the bookies to back Fiorentina for the Europa now.
  9. Their midfield was getting the ball up front way too easy. Also Hazard sold the ball once and he did it against Burnley too - trying to get through a wall of men infront of their box. If you do that in the flanks and you lose the ball it's no danger for the defense but not in there.
  10. That was the season's toughest match so far ! We got equalized by City and United but this one was the toughest.
  11. To make the Ottoman empire a state without dominant religion was impossible in those days. America was a country without state religion from its beginnings but even in the early 20th century I imagin Christian churches were the ruling force. In the modern world I think it is possible for many religions to coexist in a single nation, in the absence of radicals, but not in the centuries past.
  12. Maybe we were a little better in September-October or maybe the others were struggling. In Europe it was an unimportant group.
  13. Explain to them that in ancient Greece we had a democratic system in the theatres. Any seats that were unoccupied could be occupied by the spectators who wanted to move. Such things as vip lounges, royal encolsures and what have you were products of the feudal aristocracies of medieval Europe.
  14. Do you know there are people who write the lewd verses ? I mean can you make a small poem just like that, in the spur of the moment ? The verse authors scratch their heads and when they come up with something then proceed to distribute to the fans. In many cases it does n't sound funny or it does n't rhyme well and gets rejected. One time I visited an orphanage (!) for Christmas where a certain team was strongly supported and they had a sort of newsletter in every table with such things.
  15. Look, if the nazis turn up and do the same things does it mean are we at war with Germany ? They are in fact already doing that (setting fires to peoples homes, factories), only there is no more than a handful of them but it is an exaggeration, not to say extreme, to blame Germany and the German people. But those characters actually do claim they act in the name of Germany ! It's the same with ISIS and their claim to act on behalf of the religion of Islam is false and manufactured. The scale of things differs of course and we have a world security problem in out hands. The answer ? Carpet bombing using B52s.
  16. He is ok in Fiorentina. But will Cuadrado prove good enough or we exchanged two equal quantities ?
  17. We did n't play bad against Burnley last week either Only in that match all the forces of the universe conspired. But against European opposition -after PSG- more is needed.
  18. Who says 2nd goal is own goal ? It definitely is n't.
  19. Boring Chelsea - Spurs 1-0. I backed >=2.
  20. City and Arsenal are the two useless English teams. I have respect for all others.
