http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foo...tic/7630069.stmI was listening to Clyde 1 when he did that. I was laughing my arse off.
Hehehe, and I happen to know the person who slapped him is Rangers supporter. >_>
Ohh, that reminds me it's the English League Cup tonight and tommorow.

Yah. Most played games would come down to MxO, Football Manager (and the earlier championship managers) and Pro Evolution Soccer. <3 FM.
Celtic thumped Livi tonight, hopefully we'll do the same to Partick tommorow.

Partick Thistel 1 - 2 Rangers. Both rangers goals were top class. But should have pounded this mod to a pulp. Never saw the entire game though.

Good to see Spurs get off the mark with their first domestic win in 6months, against Newcastle. Pavlyuchenko got his first too so he'll hopefully go on a scoring spree. Also, Newcastle fans are far too expectant of their team. A big stadium and a mediocre amount of cash for a premiership team doesn't mean you should be challenging for the Premiership. All of the top 4 went through but Man City, and their Billions, were knocked out by Brighton!
Also woot, one of teams my season kicks off on Sunday in Glasgow... it's about time, a summer of boozing knocked me out my stride >_>

Apart from the two goals we did manage, the finishing was pure rubbish. Darch looked way off the pace, Wee Nacho clearly couldny buy a goal last night and Boyd missed a couple of chances you'd put your mortgage on. Thistle really deserved something more from their second half performance but in the end just werent strong enough to beat the Gers. I will say something though.. it was an engrossing cup tie. Thistle can walk away heads held high and Rangers really need to give their strikers a kick up the a*s!
Darcheville still has the work ethic he had last season but his finishing(see: missing from 1 yard out against Lyon), it wasn't good originally, has gotten worse and he seems to have put on even more weight. Boyd is the only natural goalscorer but does blow chances from time to time, Nacho has been erratic with his finishing since he had his debut 25 goal season for Rangers, he goes from the sublime to the shocking with some of his finishing(see: missing from 1 yard out against Liverpool) but he plays his heart out for the team too.
oh i agree with everything you said there Yas... just wish Boyd would spend more time chasing the ball rather than moaing to the first person he finds about this or that! If he worked just that little bit harder he could be up there with the likes of Coisty! I know Coisty was kinda lazy too but when the ball can hit you and just go in who cares right? Coisty worked harder than Boyd any day IMO!
Yeah, I agree. Boyd is a stone overweight. Sometimes he works hard but it's like 1 in every 4 games instead of every game. Coisty was definitely harder working.
I do enjoy this 'FIFA Scottish Football Season 08/09' thread.
Everyone knows the SPL doesn't count. It's like 'The Bill', all the chewed up and spat out players go there when there's no other option.

If Portsmouth can get their defensive / goalkeeping problems sorted i fancy them to push for top 5 or 6. Cant see past Man U for the title right now, despite their poorish start to the season.
EDIT cause i canny spell!

Europa League O_o
I'm not sure how successful this will be. I kinda like how the UEFA Cup is different from the Champions League. The idea of it becoming the same might make European competition a little bland.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foo...als/7636495.stm
The European Championships have been made bigger too. Maybe England, Scotland and Northern Ireland will qualify this time since they came close last time. XD

West Ham just got stung. 30m quid fine, ouch.
I'm looking forward to the Merseyside Derby tomorrow. Thankfully it's before work so I'll get to see it, but I'll be playing when the Gers play Hibs on Sunday so I'll miss it. :/

Uefa cup should be knock outs like before.
It works pretty much the same as the current UEFA Cup structure in terms of qualifying for it except runners-up in cup competitions don't make it in. In my opinion thats a good thing, it means teams like Queen of the South who have no chance of improving Scotlands reputation in Europe and Millwall who had no chance of doing it for England will have no realistic chance of making it into Europe. It might suck2bethem but frankly for the good of the countries football thats something I don't have sympathy with them for.
I thought the runner up to the Scottish cup thing ended last year. Meaning QoS was the last team that would get it (In Scotland at least). Now i hear this isn't the case? BS!
It should go down to the next league position.
It should go down to the next league position.
Yep, that ends the year after this. Unfortunately. We can but hope for a Rangers v Hibs final
I'm hopin for Killie to gte close to the finals. After that 4 - 2 scutching we gave to Aberdeen last week its got our hopes high to then get crushed again for pulling up against Celtic for the next round 
Yeah ditching the team thats in the final will be a good idea. We need our better teams to head into Europe rather than QoS style teams lol
And ex, SPL is better 
(not really, only sayin that cause i'm Scottish ha ha) I prefer watching teams from my own country rather than being a glory seeking idiot (Hence why i support Killie and Scotland 
)
Anyone but the likes of Gretna and Queens. ~_~
Hearts beat Celtic at this stage last year I think, so it's not beyond Killie to do it considering how they played against Rangers at Ibrox. Depends what team Strachan fields and how up for it they are.
Thoroughly enjoyed the Merseyside Derby this weekend, Fernando Torres got back to scoring ways (and earned my fantasy football team 24points in the process!) scoring twice and his overall performance was awesome. Shock of the weekend goes to Hull! Daniel Cousin scored the winner, haha. That'll be his last goal for 5 games Unless they play another big team soon. Spurs are still struggling, beaten 2-0 by Portsmouth, Ramos keeps chopping and changing and doesn't know what his best team is and I have a feeling he'll lose his job by the time he knows what it is. Newcastle beaten again, I hope they're relegated. Just because you have a big stadium doesn't mean you have a divine right to be in the top 4 of the Premiership like most of their fans seem to think.
I missed the Rangers v Hibs match and I'm gutted, because apparently we played them off the park winning 3-0. We should arrange friendlies with Derby and Wolves, since Kenny Miller only seems to like scoring against his old teams Celtic, the jammy gits that they are, snuck a late win against Aberdeen. It won't be the last time they do that this season, unfortunately. Killie are on a bit of a slump after being beaten by Inverness! Shows how valuable confidence is in football, since they would probably have won that match before they lost to Rangers and Celtic but since they've taken two defeats and lost their clean sheet record the heads were bound to be down.
Caught the second half of Valencia vs Deportivo in Spain and Valencia were awesome, it's good to see them back to their best after last seasons troubles.
Our team won 3-1 on Sunday =D

Rangers did indeed play Hibs off the park. The midfield was in total control all except that numpty Charlie Adam. Why he gets a game i dunno. There were 3 or 4 oppertunities where he could have put Darch, Nacho and Miller through on goal only for him to get caught with the ball or not release the pass quick enough.. total eedjit! Apart from him.. top marks. Mendez has already won player of the season as long as he doesnt get injured imo.
Premiership was good this weekend. Lots of controversy as usual. Dodgy reffing, teams not performing and of course Arsenal getting PUMPED haha! Gotta love it.

keke, Strachan says Celtic are out if they lose. So, I guess I'll be celebrating Celtics Champions League demise after 2 games tonight. They'll have lasted aslong as Rangers, technically.

So Celtic stumbled to a 1-0 defeat against Villareal and their chances of making the last 16 are pretty much gone. The fact that they have taken 1 point from a possible 51 points in the history of the champions league away from home tells its own story. They did seem to play well in spurts but Villareal had too much class for them on the night. In the same group Man United got their campaign off an running winning 3-0 against Aalborg comfortably.
I'm a little disappointed with Zenit losing again, I really thought they could trouble Juve and Real but it looks like they might struggle.
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/footba...86908-20763913/
Scotland have managed to secure a friendly with Argentina in November and the prices of tickets are cheaper than originally expected, thankfully so hopefully I'll be able to go to that.
Looking forward to seeing how Cluj do against Chelsea tonight and there's some other fairly exciting ties going on.

Berbatov finally got on the score sheet for Man U.
Gotta worry about Celtic facing a Man U that are finding form too. Doesnt look like their terrible away form in Europe is going to get any better anytime soon either.
Arsenal bounced back last night too. Pumped Porto 4-0! From the highlights i have to say it should have been double that.
My lads are appalling at the moment!
Last night was a bad night for Chelsea, they drew 0-0 in Cluj, just and Didier Drogba was struck down with a serious injury. Liverpool on the other hand cruised to a 3-1 win, Gerrard got his 100th Liverpool goal and in contrast, but equally important, Keane got his first. Atheletico Madrid kept up their awesome form, beating Marseille 2-1. Sergio Aguerro showing why he's the most talented youngster in the world right now. I suppose the only other shock of the night went to Famagusta beating Panathinaikos.
UEFA Cup tonight, 4 English teams and 1 Scottish team are playing. Good luck to them.

Well Spurs scraped through along with Portsmouth, Aston Villa and Man City but Motherwell and Everton were knocked out. To be honest, it doesn't suprise me that either dropped out. Motherwell didn't seem strong enough mentally to cope with european football and Everton did the damage when they lost 2 away goals in the 2-2 draw at Goodison.

That would have brought the game alive. But their defense i rotten. So glad Rangers didn't sign Mark Reynolds. He's just to short to be a center back imo.

Walter is a smart guy, a big reason that Broadfoot is in good form is because he has Davis in front of him who does work back and help out unlike Burke, who is just horrible and hasn't gotten better in the 5 years he's been 'on the scene'.
Reynolds form has dipped this year, he showed real class last year but was really found wanting when he stepped up to play in Europe.
AGAIN I have to miss the match due to the Rangers match conflicting with my own teams start time. ~_~

Well, I'm glad I missed the Rangers game this weekend. 1-0 Loss to St Mirren leaves Celtic top of the league on goal difference after they beat Hamilton 4-0. At least my team won again, 4-1.
Liverpool showed their mental strength and desire to win the Premiership by coming back from 2 goals down to Billionaires Man City to win 3-2. Tottenham AGAIN lost, this time to Hull City and I'll be suprised if Ramos lasts this month as manager, although they do play Stoke next so perhaps they can grab the points there. Sunderland managed a draw with Arsenal, although they were in a winning position with seconds to go but a point off one of the big four is always good and Chelsea made it 86 league home games without defeat, a run which spans 4 years, beating Aston Villa 2-0.

World Cup qualifiers this week and Scotland have already lost Kevin Thomson and Kenny Miller to injury which is bad news, though it should allow McFadden and the prolific Boyd to start up front which might be for the best anyway.
England are without Joe Cole which is bad news for them as Cole has been in great form for them in the past couple of qualifiers and Lampard and Barry were exceptional against Croatia so, does Gerrard walk right back into the team?

Touching on the overpaid, prima donna attitudes; I've always said if I was at a club which I was happy and comfortable I wouldn't desert them for a bigger pay packet. It really pisses me off when people ditch clubs for the extra money. For example, if I ever ended up at the club I supported for my whole life the only thing that could possibly make me leave would be to join a club in which is a step up, and I only consider there to be 6 of those clubs in the world. In terms of winning tropheys, playing at the highest possible level and general lifestyle. (That'd be Arsenal, Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Baracelona). If I didn't want to leave, I wouldn't then be persuaded by the offer for my wages being tripled. If I'm sat there on 10k per week, the offer of 30k means nothing to me. Wow, money for another a new car this week, who cares? One is enough.

Never discount the Germans and Spanish in Group A there.
I think Man City (despite their apparent financial soliditiy) will have a seriously hard time getting through.
