Old red eyes Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Valencia v Getafe is on tonight. Looking forward to watching it. I wouldn't mind Getafe winning it as Valencia wouldn't be in Europe next season. Plus i felt sorry for Laudrup's team when Bayern got two late goals to knock em out of the Uefa cup.

surf Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Also on is Groningen - Ajax. If Ajax fail to win PSV will (finally) regain their Championship. Ajax 1-0 up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the game being staged tonight after being postponed due to fans burning seats at the weekend ? Imagine Platini if that had happened in English stadia!!!

Old red eyes Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Good for you Not really as i'll have to put up with German commentary which is crap. All games have dual commentary which is alright for the EPL or CL involving English teams. But tonight it'll be German or Spanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine Platini if that had happened in English stadia!!! Yep: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ElH482cJHqA&feature=related Groningen fans were throwing toilet rolls to create a little atmosphere, something they'd done a few times before. A few idiots thought it would be fun to set fire to something, which got out of control. There was more smoke than fire, but turned into quite a panic. On of the guys on the clip said that Groningen had asked the fire department for permission/advice to determine whether fans throwing toilet rolls would be a risk. Fire department apparently said ok. (that bit is quite speculative) What made it worse was that for some reason there was no pressure on the fire hoses, so the fire couldn't be put out for some time.

Ta, i watched it on the German news the other day. Rearranged that one pretty quick!. Got live score on and Groningen equalised on the stroke of H/T.

Old red eyes Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Groningen equalise just before HT, 1-1 PSV champions if score stays the same Have you seen what happens to the rest of the league ref CL qualifier, Uefa qualifier etc..? Mental it is. 1.Play Offs for Ch.Lg QF: 2-5 & 3-4, winners play together for the Ch.Lg QF spot.The other 3 teams will play for UEFA CUP.2.Play Offs for INTERTOTO: (a)6-9 & 7-8, winners play together for Intertoto spot. (b)10-13 & 11-12, winners will play for a position against a team from (a) for another Intertoto spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surf Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 'We' like our playoffs.Personally i hate them and think they're a bad idea. Only way it makes sense if it it extends the season and gives teams a few extra games and more income. From a competionwise point of view it's rubbish.

Old red eyes Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Don't believe it. Due to contractual rights ( Premiere not paying the odds ) they are now showing a delayed Celtic v Rangers match instead of the Spanish final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
