I don't know, but I assume from that comment they are in trouble? If so they are not exactly alone - look at Holland!!

I say that Holland is in trouble and Greece are done. And Greece where the top seeded team in the group and they lost to the Faroe Islands.

I was surprised they let the game continue for a while despite that. And I was stunned when I heard that Platini personally ordered the match to continue. It was later abandoned when even more stuff was thrown at the Russian players.

Edit: Would be nice if someone could confirm that Platini was involved in this.

Someone IS going to get killed soon - this is getting quite ridiculous. Its all going off in the Balkans again.... Serbia, Albania and now Montenegro

Well its nice to get off to a winning start.

Sadly Tottenham are a total shambles of a team

Levy (Spurs chairman) needs to back Pocchetino in the summer or its going to be really difficult next season. You should have seen the Paulinho miss on Sunday (don't know if its available on you tube but should be - it is beyond embarrassing.....).

We need a major clear out - Kaboul, Capoue, Paulinho, Adebayor, Chirches hopefully will be on their way.

Personally I would be pleased to get rid of Chadli, Soldado, Fazio and Lamela too.

The jury is out on Stambouli, Townsend and Davies.

Of the rest I would like to keep Lloris of course but surely he will go to a sensible club.

What a piggin' mess....

Let's just hope that Aston Villa can spring two surprises and beat Liverpool in their semi and then Arsenal in the final. Would be nice to see Villa win the FA Cup once more. When I was a kid they held the record for the most win - 7.

However that record has long since vanished and apart from one Cup Final appearance (they lost) in 2000, Aston Villa have done nothing since 1957!! when they beat Manchester United.

Come on Villa!

As a purist - no its awful news.

As a realist, if it get the stadium built at some point in my lifetime then its just something to live with.

- Plymouth lost at home 3-2 in their semi-final first leg
- Grimsby Town are through to the final

Captain Fantastic will play no more games at Anfield as a Liverpool player.
One of the "great generation" of English footballers for sure, and a player that has in many ways become the club. Add his loyalty to the club, and all I can do is

Great player for Liverpool FC and England.

That is the team I used to play as when I played CM/FM and was done playing LIverpool.
All due to John Cleese and Fawlty Towers ofc

That has to be one of the best - and certainly the most original reason for supporting a team!

Still there is one consolation; the team I support and those I have an interest in - at least they won't let me down every flipping week over the summer - well except in the transfer market of course

Only one winner out of 4 in the play-offs sadly. Well done to the Invincibles:

Preston North End Good luck in the Championship next year.
