The General Football Thread

Yep, thought I was pretty good at observation, but that's a great spot on your part.

And yeah, the Charles brothers are incredibly alike. I did just about guess one from the other though.

 

Serge Aurier, the Paris Saint-Germain defender, has been sentenced to two months in jail for elbowing a police officer.

The Ivory Coast international was convicted on Monday, having committed the offence after being stopped to take a breath test in the early hours of 30 May.

Anderlecht's penalty was described as the "most embarrassing decision in football"................ Until compared to the penalty given against Fonte at Arsenal.

Les Reed doesn't want a foreign player quota system....he disagrees with idea that it will help the home nations. Says our players gain experience from competing with good players (from all countries) to get into the side.

I understand Nigel Pearson has been suspended by Derby County pending a club investigation #dcfcfans

 

My son`s mate from school plays at centre back for Blackpool against our fishy friends tonight. He`s been told he`ll never be allowed back in Aberdeen unless he keeps a clean sheet.

 

.........Blackpool one up!

 

Two big ego's in one building never ends well.

 

Nice to see Leicester City 1-0 up against Porto in the Champions League. In the vanguard for the smaller clubs.

 

Their clappy things piss me off still though.

 

Balls - he`s been subbed with an injury and it`s 1:1

 

Nooooo Rickie gone off injured - can't remember that before?

 

Spurs 1 up in Moscow.

 

Mahrez limping off. He'll be back for Sunday with their two extra days rest.

 

I'm not a betting man - but what are the odds on Leicester winning the Champions League and getting relegated from the Premiership?

 

Leicester won't be relegated or anywhere near, so the odds should be massive (though will drop after we thrash them ). They have been impressive in the Champions' League so far.

 

Though me and FLT managed to both survive the Old Farmhouse

 

Those of us sat at the same table still haven't fully recovered though, even Tom's been quiet!
