No whoa..you got the wrong person. If it were upto me., we'd sell Kuffkuff, and land Dhorasoo on a free and proudly proclaim how we have a Brazillian-French core that harks back to the days of Papin. Besides using Vikash Dhorasoo also gives us marketting pathways into India and Mauritius. I might land Sunil Chettri or Bhaichung Bhutia as our Pippo replacements. I'd also come out in a statement saying Benzema ain't got nothing on Bhaichung. But I would fix that CB problem. Maybe get someone cheap from the Scottish League. I got the best interests of the club at heart, obviously. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) So you guys will all vote for me right?

QUOTE (Jack Sparrow @ Feb 10 2009, 07:43 AM) Sim...about Kuffkuff, any noticeable improvements? Like his workrate? Defensive work? Of course if he plays very advanced, his defending won't be much to talk about but... Well, it was non-existant. He created a few actions, took some by himself, his free-kicks are still not under control (means in 10 minutes he's able to hit a Beckham-like ball and afterwards a Phil Neville-like)...but to be fair, from what I've see M'Bami is a good DM and Taiwo did his share too. His defensive work...no,...not really.

Still inconsistent then?? So is it the 'big fish in a small pond' thing that is working in his favour?

But honestly...Marseille is one of the few very good french teams Bordeaux has to face, so, you never can actually say. I'd be watching more of the french league now, so I'll be reporting of Ku-ku more often..

Two great goals from Greek football. Last week, in the Greek league, a beautiful goal scored by a young gun, Papasterianos (do NOT worry if you can't pronounce it). let's call him papaAnd this... from the Cup game between PAOK and Olympiacos... an awfully classy goal by Sérgio Conceição (former inter, Lazio and Parma player). I don't think the keeper is at fault for this, in my opinion it's just perfectly executed! define: beauty

Both teams are clear off the relegation zone and cannot achieve much better than mid-table. The Greek league is corrupted but I have not heard anything about it. Ergotelis are possibly the cleanest team in the league and such bets most times are mistaken but... we'll see.

QUOTE Iraqi footballer shot dead by fan
An Iraqi football player has been shot dead by a spectator as he was about to score an equalising goal.
The shooting happened in the last minute of a game between two local rivals on Sunday, police say.
The striker was shot in the head during the match in the city of Hilla, according to local security officials.
The game was being played between Sinjar and Buhayra. The suspected killer has been arrested as police carry out an investigation. This is just crazy.. On a lighter note, Celtic beat Rangers in the League Cup Final on Sunday. It was goalless after 90 minutes, then Darren O'Dae scored after about 45 seconds on extra-time for Celtic. In the dying seconds, Celtic broke through 1-on-1 with the keeper, only for Kirk Broadfoot to take out the Celtic man from behind, resulting in a red card and a penalty. Aiden McGeady scored the penalty to give Celtic the 2-0 win.

It's been some time since Celtic beat Rangers right?
So since I don't know SPL too well, what are the unique factors about each team. This way, I know who to support. Right now I'm inclined to Rangers coz of the Rino connection.

I don't think Celtic have beaten Rangers in a cup final for a while, but seeing as they play each other 4 times a season, both teams get their fair share of wins. In the 90s Rangers were even more dominant in Scotland than United were in England, winning 9 straight league titles. Martin O'Neill ended that dominance, winning 3 league titles in 5 years at Celtic! (IMG: style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) It's a very religous/political thing. Rangers are seen as the Protestant team, while Celtic are Catholic and it's heavily linked to Northern irish politics of the loyalists (Rangers) and the Republicans (Celtic). Historically Celtic fans are generally Catholics and Rangers fans Protestants. But the most unusual thing for me is that this is 2 Scottish clubs playing in the Scottish league, yet they for some reason base everything around Ireland.. even the flags and colours of the teams. Celtic fans very rarely have Scottish flags, instead they just have green/white/orange or Republic of Ireland flags, while Rangers fans are red/white/blue and have British or Northern Irish flags.. there's hardly any Scottish flags to be seen! I personally ignore this completely and just support Celtic because I didn't like Rangers winning everything in the 90s.
