Useful when there are league deciders to be won otherwise not up to much.

Hugh Shaw, Walter Galbraith, Bob Shankly, Eddie Turnbull but now Lennon. Downfall of a once respectable club

"Rangers target Niko Kranjcar's father ........"
Who does he play for? Will he not be a bit old?

Better than the "golden generation" a few years back? They certainly play nice un-English football.
Kane and Ali are terrific players. So is Vardy in a system that suits him. Not so sure about the defence nder the sort of pressure that Spain or Germany can exert.

"The 'mysterious' bike found in a storeroom full of dust that today adorns the trophy room. Willie Thornton says Racing Club of Paris gave us it. The name of the club 'Racing' sounds as if it could be more than the truth"
The "racing" refers to foot racing.

Maybe Racing gifted a bike 40s/50s. Maybe St E presented a bike in 1975. Maybe they threw in a miner's lamp but that was more likely Gornik. As I say, I don't know. But I do know they brought a bike with them in 1957. Fact.

Never mind that, Boabie. Did we beat the greenyins?

Was it not for the euro tie we played against them in the mid 1970's ?
Two ties. 1957 and 1975. The bike gift was 1957.

A gift from St Etienne marking a euro-tie late 50s early 60s. At the time, perhaps still, bicycle manufacture was a big industry in the city of St E.

Interesting move. Huge success or utter failure. Nothing in between.

Sky saying he's going to Manchester Utd on a year's contract. Preferred OT to China.

He'll be joining Raul and Morientes in the squad for Japan

Not a sports department production, obviously.
I feature in the crowd behind the goal as Eric cracks it in.
World class player. What would he cost at today's values?

Enough of these cyber threats. I expect the poor fellow is on the 'phone now to the Gardai, the entire Irish Diplomatic Corps and any passing Nuncio to demand protection from imminent attack.

John Shughes is available for a reprise of the Leith gig.

Note the "finished on a high". Fair enough. It's a true statement.
No mention of " tarnished by fan behaviour". Quite right. It was a football achievement.
But contrast with a cup win in Barcelona, 1972. The victory is always qualified by the other bit. Without fail.

Is there an English language version of this stuff?

And if I remember correctly the first sight of one Konterman, Bert, Centre-half (purportedly)
I was ten minutes late switching on the Holland/Germany game and thefirst image on the screen is a wee German forward out-jumping our Bert who is nowhere near getting his head to the ball. No surprise, really. His eyes were shut.
Did the rocket goal against the tims make up for all the rest?

God help us.

He'll be taking his own backroom staff to OT. I wonder if our own Ser Barristan will get the PR job?

A man for all seasons.

I remember watching him break through with Man City and thinking this guy could go to the very top.(excuse the music..)
And now he has, Walter. At long last.

Arsenal bid for Vardy

Vardy's great assets apart from instinctive finishing are his anticipation of when a colleague is going to make pass/cross and electric movement to where the ball is going. Takes playing time to adjust that anticipation to new team mates who in turn have to learn what movement Vardy is most likely to make.
