Did we give them a game?Quote:

I would rather watch the mongo derby than guffball. Any day. It you are talking about over hype. F@ck me guffball is embarrasing. Closely followed by the chump league
Id watch Hamilton v St Mirren over guffball. Id watch QOTS v ICT on Alba over guffball.
Scottish fitba trumps everything in my viewing
Timothy were there to be beat, as they have been a few times and yet we stand off, the 4-3 score line flatters us a bit IMHO but that's just as i said IMHO which we are all entitled to (opinions and all that) :confused:Quote:

Hope DM was watching and taking notes.
But that's the year end and we are only 3 points of top spot, fk knows how far ahead we would be if we had had a better start and shown some decent consistency.
So all in all mustn't grumble and I'm quite happy with where we are for now.
But for the record Cosgrove is still shyte though and normal service has been resumed by him in the last couple of games >;)
Happy New Year JJ

Happy new year to yourself too, I’m back to the bread and butter of amateur fitba next Saturday and will not have scope to watch much of the once michty apart from midweek/Sundays, and indeed you are correct, it is all about opinions,of which most are respected on here, I stand by why I walked up the road fuming at Gollum though.......the best ref we ever had was William Miller esquire......it did not do us any harm.Quote:

Their real games don't start till 6th so shouldnt read much into it.....likely just getting there!
Think I read somewhere that he wanted to play players in friendly that hadn't played much recently so that would exclude Rogic. Aussie manager just won't have wanted players to play in league games to avoid risk of injury

Belenenses 1-2 Porto
This fixture wasnt up when i booked my holiday. So an impromtu game it was.
Estadio Nacional is a belter. One of my favourites. Its in a superb setting. Its dug out of a wood. You have to walk through the woods to get to the entrance. The place itself is old school and very concrete but it adds to the character. Along with the fact theres no stand on the wing and the pavillion on the main stand makes different to anything ive seen. Obviously the pigs had their glory there which is the only down side. But all in all its a f@cking beezer of a place. Only 10 euros to get in too.
The game itself was decent enough. Belenenses were in Portos face and didnt give them a sniff all first half and were worthy of their half time lead. But the second half Porto looked alot better and sharper. Must have got a shellac at half time. Once they equalised after squandering 3 or 4 really good chances there was only going to be one winner. And backed by an excellent travelling support(one of the best ive seen/heard) they went up 2-1 and saw the game out and put Belenenses oot the cup. I was rooting for the underdog but it was not to be and the ref bribing b@stards went through
Decent enough game but a great stadium and if you get the chance. Take it.
