Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Are the group stages on UK telly anywhere? BBC coverage seems paltry... The final will be shown live on BBC Two, while the two semi-finals will be available on red button and BBC Three. The BBC website will have team news, statistics and match reports for every game and live text commentary from the opening match, semi-finals and final. Piers Edwards will be blogging from Angola, while Richard Connelly will be sending regular Twitter updates. ITV are covering it live and highlight shows from 22nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offshore Toon 0 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 It is a key game and should be entertaining. I'm looking forward to the African goalkeeping masterclasses, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toonotl 2410 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Tiote sent off in warm up match. May as well come back to Newcastle while he's banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 8989 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Tiote sent off in warm up match. May as well come back to Newcastle while he's banned. I think it's a 1 match ban to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toonotl 2410 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Yeh. That's the more pressing matter. But I think they have a pretty good side. At least in attack. They could go a fair way. While Cote d'Ivoire are probably close to favourites. What are the odds for a Senegal v Cote d'Ivoire final? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CabayeAye Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Up there with other hits such as ''Happy New Year Cunts''. Perhaps why Newcastle Online got shot of him I got released from N-O because the mods there are a bunch of pathetic, childish twats who jizz over the prospect of banning someone because they can.

Monkeys Fist 38739 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It is a key game and should be entertaining. I'm looking forward to the African goalkeeping masterclasses, personally. Energy Murambadoro! There's been some class African footballer names- Have-a-Look Dube, also Zimbabwean, Two-Boys Gladstone Gamede, Danger Fourpence,Bongo Christ, Johnny Moustache. Best ever, though has to be Ralph Minge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dembgoals 0 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Is it bad that we're all wishing Ba professional failure in the ACN? Yes it is. If the lads win the competition for example, they will come back stronger in such a mindset, ready to crush other teams. And they will gain value in case you want to sell them later. And besides, you should be happy for them if they can go so far for their country. It's important for them so if you like the guy you should hope the best for him Edited January 20, 2012 by Dembgoals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
