The Round Ball Game

[eighthobstruction]

Sick of Thatcher (again)....So thinking....

(a) How many goals would Barce have scored this year if Messi didn't play for them.....where would they be in the league....

(b) Which Premier League team would be best suited to House him....Surely Chelsea or Man City....

(c) How many goals might he be limited to in PL....Would Robert Hoth be able to avoid sending him to casualty (just imagine Messi playing against Stoke....What would Tony Puliss instructions be re Messi....)....

(d) £100 to see Messi versus Titus Bramble....

Ah footie , you know where you are with footie!!

[BBMmk2]

No contest with (C), 8th!!

[teamsaint]

Re A, we may get an indication tonight.

And 8O, that football seems like a place of sanity is a damning indictment of our political world.

Music is the only safe haven

Ah, that it explains it, ts ... couldn't see inside the coach due to darkened windows! ... yes, Wilmslow's a nice place though you are certainly not too far wrong about some footballing gentlemen who reside in their even nicer mansions there, and in nearby Alderley Edge.

Ah Alderley Edge. There's a rather good brass band piece called that. By Peter Graham.

Very poshe.

Barcelona being out Barcelona'd by PSG this evening,quite incredible.
The boy Messi warming up though he looks to be struggling doing just that.

What a difference a half fit Messi makes.

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

actually a pretty woeful night for the English clubs in Europe .... as a fan of les bleus i note that they are playing a lot of games, Rafa is rotating and they still get the job done in a workmanlike way ... but they can be fatally sloppy, lucky tonight ...

and a belated thanks ER for the scores ,,,

[scottycelt]

'Heading for the title ... ' ... let's hope so, ER ... nearly 9,000 at Firhill the other night... watch out SPL, the Jags could be back!

[BBMmk2]

Well, I suppose the writing was on the for for The toon. But I think we did quite well and shouldnt be ashamed of our performance, well, hmmmm having said that, whenI saw the last goal from Befica, what were the defenders doing!?!?!?

[teamsaint]

Thanks for the round up, ER.
Football not much fan for Stockport fans, so extra thanks for sticking to your task. We appreciate it.
On the plus side, SC have a lot of virtual fans hereabout, and things are not always as bleak as they seem.

Oh and Sam allerdyce can take his brand of football and shove it. It's offensive to see such talented players playing such an ugly style of football.
well done to today's board winners!

[EdgeleyRob]

Currently Wrexham 1 Kidderminster 1.Play off place secure
