Tried yesterday evening apparently, but were let down by the Austrian allies. Could be a good test for what is to be expected when the Euro are in Poland. There were already a couple of nasty clashes between both set of wankers two years ago. For the game: I am nervous as fuck. On paper it looks good, but there are far too many players in our team who have been in poor form this season.

Shearer Wants To Speak To Rovers - Your Thoughts?
Isegrim replied to bluepeter1875's topic in Newcastle Forum
Wasn't there a time in the 90s with quite a lot, some as player manager? Vialli and Gullit springing to my mind. Lombardo too IIRC. Also Pearce at Man City. -
Shearer Wants To Speak To Rovers - Your Thoughts?
Isegrim replied to bluepeter1875's topic in Newcastle Forum
Giving someone totally unproven the job is always risky. Shearer doesn't look like a "modern" type manager to me, but unless he is tested nobody can say about what he will be as a manager. But as he will always be an automatic candidate for Newcastle, it wouldn't be too bad if his earning his credentials elsewhere first... -
That wasn't really my point. My point was rather what being a mediocre footballer has to do with anything. Quite a lot of mediocre footballer do quite good jobs in executive positions or as managers... But it looks like the tabloids are doing well in printing all those half-true stories as there is still enough people who buy them. Throug the wisdom of the Sunday Sun of all sources it is now established as a well known fact that our researches are based on the knowledge of a Spanish internet geek (I bet he also plays Football manager). We also know that Keegan has nothing to say, has to swallow young players and hates all the other staff at Newcastle anyway.

What has this got to do with anything?

Well, seeing it's from the the Daily Lie it's probably bollocks anyway (especially the bit about not being able to sign French players anymire), but offering him a new deal with reduced terms was my suggestion as well. If he doesn't agree he can sod off.

I only realised last time I was in Hamburg how many Portugese are living there. A couple of very good restaurants though... Great food allround. By the Hafen especially. Couple of years back on NYE me and the Mrs had a great meal and I'd left all me cards at home...They just let us off. One in the Schanzenviertel was really brilliant. La Sepia? Sim. That's the one. Turkey lost by two goals. Keep them lot down here at least quiet for another couple of days...

I am watching it on Swiss television and you can hear the commentator of Al Jazeera in the background. 45 minutes of non stop talking and screaming.

How he can dictate the game, some things he does are just brilliant. Tuncay for the Turks is just totally crap.

They even made the little waster captain. I wouldn't be surprised if he even would play decent football for a change. And people complain about Owen's commitment...

You think Zigic did well for Valencia last season?
-
I'm still surprised about Bargazli's move, even though he has done it purely for fiscal purposes. Yep, very strange, raised a lot of eyebrows here, too. Especially as Wolfsburg also signed Zaccardo and apparently also di Natale. Looks like Volkswagen are pumping a lot of cash into the club.

Sinister bunch of Machiavellian bastards the lot of them. Probably planning a further incursion into the Balkan states as we speak... Ah bollocks, I knew there was something on the agenda for tonight...

Really? Both teams should have been thrown out of the tournament tbh. Most disgraceful violation of fair play at a major tournament ever. For both being Kraut or because of bad sportsmanship, or both? Nah to be fair I reckon right up to when we beat Germany in Euro 2000, most people hated Germany, partly because we couldn't beat them and partly because they were emotionless, methodical machines. Now we realise they're not cunts at all, I'd rather be Kraut than any latin nationality any day of the week....and Alex I was too young to remember Krauts v Kraut Wannabes. Isegrim I've been to Austria its a nice place, friendly people too, does your average German stuck in a Dusseldorf highrise like Austrians, or do you view them like we view Scots? I think the majority of Germans rather like Austria, but (arrogantly) see them as a sort of little brother who isn't to be taken seriously and who has to be mocked. Some Austrians probably suffer from a kind of inferiority-complex though. Anyway, for those who understand German a funny pisstake about the game in 1978 (Two commentators who are exiled in Argentine since 1978 commentating the game Germany vs. Germany) "Lassen Sie sich bitte durch die Ergebniseinblendung der Feindpropaganda nicht irritieren." "The referee today, a certain Abraham Klein from Isrrrael - any further comment is superfluous."

I only realised they were showing it at the moment a couple of days ago when I updated my tv channels.

Porto Kicked Out Of 2008/2009 Champions League
Isegrim replied to Mad-on-the-cocks's topic in Newcastle Forum
They throw as many teams out (Sofia yesterday) as it needs to allow Milan to participate. http://www.focus-fen.net/index.php?id=n142457 -
What did the bloke who made the tackle get? Both got red. Not bad for a "friendly".
-
A lot of uncreative rehashing of old stories at the moment. Looks like the press is as much or even more clueless about transfers than the fans. I think just like with the Emre deal we will be caught by surprise when the first deal comes off.
-
They're insured, it's not an issue. It's more likely that clubs don't want to sell players who are "on show" because they know a good tournament will inflate their value! Foremost it is difficult to finalise deals during the Euros. Some teams ban agents and all transfer talks from their camps (Barzagli had to sign his pre-contract with Wolfsburg at a parking place in front of the hotel). You also can't do medicals etc. So even if you find an agreement with the club regarding a fee you will still face problems to tie up a player during the Euros.

Are you sure you were in Belfast and not somewhere in Switzerland?

I seem to do everything wrong. If she wants a war I'll give her a fucking war. If she wanted a war she surely would have invaded a Polish exhibition first. She does know Rothko is from Latvia, doesn't she?
