Yes, FOOTball.

CL predictions, anyone?

Judging from the first round...

I predict the English dominion is over. One team to semi, not more.
I predict that Inter will finally get their shit together.
I predict that that Porto will surprise everyone but their fans.

Of course, I'm known to be tragically wrong about these kind of things.

Yes, FOOTball.

You mean soccer.

 

[Liar]

You mean soccer.

Pfft.


But, since you're here: What's your opinion? Are the 4-5-1 lineups killing the beauty of the game?

 

[starrkers]

I KNOW that the Stallions will clobber City in the grand final of the under 13s comp

Cos it happened yesterday

Yeah, I'm a soccer mum and damned proud of it.

I have no opinion, one way or another, cos I don't follow football, haven't done since in my early 20's when the ex and I actually attended a few live games - we followed Ipswich, which, at that time, was our local 1st division team. Highlight of those years was when they won the FA cup. Since then, losti nterest, it all got a bit samey, too business like, no character.

All I know now, is that Mat Jr. is a lifelong supporter of West Ham, but rarely gets to the games. As he lives in Norwich, he often attends their home games.

Eldest sprog is a life-long supporter of Portsmouth - his local team. He's been to a few, and even tried to persuade me to buy him a season ticket for his birthday !! Hunnnnnnnndreds of pounds. I think not.

If it's on tv, I have to admit, I change the channel. Hurriedly.

Yes, I'm biased.

My bet is that Man U will be filing for bankruptcy or sold to the Arabs within a year.

I support Bristol City myself and EL could explain why they need all the support they can get.

I've never forgiven man U for beating Bristol City in the Cup final - in 1909 I think!!

Yes, I'm biased.

Considering they're in a relegation battle and have Chelsea today I can't see that happening.

 

[Safe_Bet]

You mean soccer.

I am a SOCCER Mom. I refuse to be a FOOTball Mom!

Ah, there's no grudge like a supporter grudge.
