Just Davila. I think it ended up being a pretty poor loan spell unfortunately. Will be interesting to see what we do with him next season: Send him on loan again, or keep him with the reserves.

I always figured it was a work permit deal and he was shipped off to the first taker. I hope he gets in the Olympic squad so we can at least see if he has talent.
 
Well, if they manage to win against Hoffenheim they would make it to Relegation Play-Off.
I expect them to lose in the play-offs anyway
I'm pretty sure Babbel wants Preetz to get fucked really bad. All he has to do is win one match and Preetz can look for a job in the third league or something lol
 
I sure hope we'll end up with Köln - Düsseldorf in the relegation play-off. That would be sick. The rivalry between those cities goes way beyond football..

Saddens me to think that this game against Norwich could be Robin van Persie's last home game for Arsenal. Football can be cruel....

Cagliari-Juventus moved at 20.45, something something Galliani mafia.

Don't know if playing during their derby will be better for us or for them.

Was a disgrace. Both that we didn't score and that ref. But hey, at least we can count on you beating them... Right?! For once I will actually hope for Brøndby victory.

We'll probably score 3 goals or so
and concede 6
. My heart is still fragile from our last game. 6 goals in 15 minutes >_<

Juventus draw today was funny. They completely dominated the match then conceeded a comical goal, I felt quite sorry for Buffon there.

They are already getting rid of half of the team in order to make space for the reinforcements. I don't think Dávila has a chance to make it.

I've had GAF withdrawal shakes and vomiting

Went to look at a house today but didn't get it, bah. People hate students.

Anything happened in football land?

edit:

My friend went to the concert:

He said they all asked for The Masterplan countless times, Noel replied: 'Oh nice, you want The Masterplan'? and then 'I don't give a fuck.' LOL

You're in Brazil, eh? I've learned just how much Brazilians love Noel and britpop in general from last.fm.. or just those who do are rabid on there! Seriously, I seem to see as many Brazilians as Americans or Brits on Noel's page and other related artists. I know from videos that the crowds in South America are always fucking nuts at rock shows. The gigs at River Plate are legendary.

LOL @ The Masterplan bit. Dude cracks me up.

Just read his latest tour diary entry, the bit about his wife holding up a similar sign is priceless.

Strange cats these Brazilians

Yes comrades . . . so, Sao Paolo.

Had a press conference early doors. Bit awkward to start with. It livened up though. It actually ended with my interpreter and a journalist just having a chat down their respective mic's!!

The show was fucking mega. What a spectacle. The crowd (or some of them at least) were waving yellow and green balloons as we took to the stage. Looked mega. Great atmosphere. Too much atmosphere as a matter of fact. Not sure if anyone was actually listening . . . they was sure feeling it though. Could barely hear myself sing. I don't mind telling you I lost it in a couple of places. Think it was being broadcast live on the Internet and all!! Lots of very amusing banners, signs, placards etc . . . here's but a few examples:

NOEL..WILL YOU MARRY ME? (this kind of thing has now become standard)

WE LOVE SARA!! (aww..so do I and she'd have been most pleased by that one)

FIRE TIM SMITH AND HIRE ME!! (very funny . . . if you're not Tim Smith . . . whoever that is?)

And my personal favourite . . . and this is not a joke . . .

NOEL..I AM PREGNANT BY YOU!!!!! (???????and it was held up by a boy!! Reminds me of a similar sign my wife held up over breakfast a couple of years ago!!)

Strange cat's these Brazilians . . . anyway onto Rio!!


See you there or maybe not.


ONWARDS.


GD.

Del Piero going to Buffon after he made the mistake:

Forza Buffon. You saved us MANY MANY times this season, you're allowed to make a mistake or 10. <3

If Milan end up winning the title, we won't blame Buffon. We'll blame our blunt strikers for the other 14 draws.

Don't worry, Ricky. I expect nothing from them, and quite frankly, I'd prefer to win the title with two wins instead of counting on them. We won't hear the end of it that's for sure. :p

Juventus pics time. Kits a bit small, need to lose some belly :D

Looks awesome ;)

Del Piero looks really short in that gif, but then again Buffon is a giant.

We're going to need a new thread soon, guess we'd best start coming up with name suggestions!

I'm amazed how many threads we've made it to this season, didn't we only have 4 threads last season? Bets on how many we'll make it to next season?

My aim for OT10 - post more!
