Michael* Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 ^ A statement of intent from Monaco today, with Porto's Joao Moutinho and James Rodriguez confirmed to sign for a combined fee of €70m. Also, Champions League football now on offer to future Europa League winners. So now in theory a club could win the Europa, take part in the Champions League the following season, stall in the group stages, drop back down to the Europa and continue the cycle while also dropping down their domestic league. An unlikely scenario I suppose, but a weird one all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SympathysSilhouette Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Sad to see Dortmund lose in such a manner. Even sadder to see Robben as the hero... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 One reputation as a big-game bottler shaken off by Robben, another acquired by the referee for not issuing Dante with a deserved second yellow for the penalty incident. Like many before him, the ref decided that because it was a huge final, some of the rules didn't actually have to be applied properly. He saw the foul, gave the penalty and realised Dante would have to walk, but didn't have the gumption to see it through. Such a tough break for Dortmund. Still, a breathtaking game with a brilliant atmosphere. Hats off to both teams and their fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederick Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 As the old poem goes, Nemanja Vidic should have been sent off in 2010 League Cup final but wasn't, Uli Hoeness should pay his taxes but doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See anyone you want? http://www.premierle...ist-2012-13.pdf Only interest stems from learning little asides like Eric Lichaj's middle name, to be honest. Or the existence of the brilliantly named Joshua Richard Charles Darren Morgan Webb, once of Reading. Meanwhile my club has done the unthinkable and moved early in the summer market. Here he is, sensitively photographed by the avfc.co.uk gang. Welcome aboard, Aleksandar Tonev! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
