You mean a professional footballer knowingly infringed the laws of the game. That's just not cricket!

At last some sense.

I rest my case

Hmmmm.

Indeed. The number should be divisible by seven.

I betrayed them in the Civil War and then had him ice-picked to death in Mexico City. I see Barcelona's opposition to Madrid rule as principally nationalist rather than socialist. Espanol is the real people's club.

Booooooooooooo! Posts merged: Chelsea 41 Barcelona 0 would be better

We have alredy shown we can contain and beat Chelsea. The current Barcelona side remains a new proposition for us. I also think playing with a European ref gives us an edge over Chelsea compared with a League game - with Barcelona there's no such factor. It would be good to see us beat Barcelona, of course. Almost as good as seeing Chelsea do it

No way! Were you at Chesterfield in 1978? I've got Kerry Dixon's thumbprint!

It doesn't. Unless they are Barcelona or Man United, of course

That's right. You'll often see me and Cobs on the Shed of a Saturday afternoon.

There's also the argument that English clubs doing well (even Scum U) helps because it increases/maintains the English League's 4 qualifying places and, therefore, increases our chances of qualifying. However, that's negligible compared to my hopes that Barcelona will crash and burn

It's not just Cruyff. That whole club and its supporters has the same attitude.

Well that's true - although you wouldn't know it given the respect Barcelona (European Cup winning equals of Aston Villa and Red Star Belgrade) seem to command - even from Liverpool fans, FFS. But what I meant was that Barcelona are among our rivals for future European trophies, including this season.
