Interesting...

It’s like they don’t want to go through.

 

[Trusty]

as if, top of the bar

 

[Kill_Phil]

When's the draw for the next round? City surely favourites again

First European knock out game ever for Brighton tonight, on the back of some terrible form and injuries coming out our arse. Hopefully the slight resting against Fulham will have helped!

Sad to hear a Brighton fan was stabbed last night, I know we have some crappy fans over in the UK but I’m so glad we don’t have this ‘ultra’ culture. Scumbags.

Damn that's bloody awful. My dad and uncle went to the Villa away leg at Leipzig, apparently the fan culture there was disgusting. Only thing stopping it from getting truly out of hand was the utterly ruthless police.
At our home leg there was a lot of trouble before the game and the fans weren't allowed into the ground. Think 4 police where injured pretty bad before they where able to disperse the crowds. They where throwing rocks and glass bottles up into the Holte end at one point. Disgusting.

We tend to be quite self loathing in the UK and imagine that the rest of the stable first world is somehow more cultured and advanced than we are. Its complete BS. Most countries have big issues and quite a lot of them are far less willing to admit them than the UK.

Strong team for the game tonight rather some them were rested considering we've got a far more important game in 3 days

[Mark1989]

It’s a good mix I think over all

 

[Mark1989]

I do hope we avoid Leversken as they must be favourites this year for it or if we get them its the final and not before.

 

[Trusty]

Surely it's written that Liverpool face Leverkusen in the final

 

[Mark1989]

Easy pen and nice finish from it.

Ref looks like he is wearing chest pads of some sort, that or he knows Sparta like there cards and brought extra.

 

[C Kent]

Cracking save and good clearence off the line from gomez

 

[Purdy]

City will be terrified for Sunday watching this

 

[Mark1989]

Dont get how Kelleher is so under-rated. He isnt Alison but he is easily premier league quality.

I mean Onana is worse and he cost stupid money for how poor he is

 

[C Kent]

Getting a lot of joy down our left, going to be a long day Sunday if we play like this

 

[scarps]

Defence all over the shop currently, normally happens when players haven't played together much. Have these 4 ever started a match together before?

Kells saving us at the moment

Only reason is because he plays for Liverpool, same reason some say Ali isn't the best keeper or Mo isn't the best right sided forward going.

Sweet Jesus! :O
