Sporting Lisbon should be banned from CL for 5 years

[dorgie]

12-1....wtf. That's downright disgraceful.

[Tones]

Its unbelievable that a team so bad can even reach this stage of the competition. Bayern are no great team and they beat them 12-1? Unbelievable.

I remember saying something along these lines when Roma got tonked by United, but this is even worse. I said the exact same to a mate "Sporting should be banned from Europe for 5 years for that performance".

[Sion]

From watching the highlights Bayern weren't even that good. Sporting were awful, handed them all put 2 of the goals.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

yeah, I saw the highlights, they weren't even trying to defend, just standing around watching

[smithdown]

Maybe ban all the players for five years too, no matter where they go.

[_00_deathscar]

Don't forget the manager.

[New York Red]

How about burning them?

[Stanley Leisure]

Thought this was another A@A thread.

12-1, got to be a fix, surely no team at this stage of the competeition can be that s***.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if there was a tinge of suspicious betting activity or players being bought off; Portugeuse footy is hardly Persil-clean.
