Today's football.

going to be a great final no matter what, but bayern can **** right off if they think they're going to win it this year when i have no money on them, instead of losing last year in the most one sided of finals, when i would have won hundreds.

i also win money if dortmund win, 'koff paddy power

gutted I'm going to be missing it

 

[Allezfan]

it was my fault this time, but i just don't like slander...if unchallenged it can cause people to believe something that isn't true (much like how most people believe Julian Assange is an attention-seeker, when he has always been the opposite).

Talking of rapists.

I think the era in question is the one of Barca's domination outside of Spain

I'm sure they'll win La Liga next season, but then again I'm sure Celtic will win the SPL. I don;t think either side will win the CL next year. It's going to be the German sides and the rejuvenated Italian sides for the next few years. Spanish and English on the way down I reckon

english is definitely on it's way down. how madrid to achieve anything massively noteworthy with that squad i'll never know. They nearly lost at home to man city ffs

Assange is no rapist in any definition of the term. And he's not accused of it, either.


...this one might go off-topic for a while...is there an Assange thread in the Ale House already?

Ribery is a disgrace doing that to underage hookers

 

[davek]

suppose, but this is a right kick up the arse for barca, of course it's an end of an era in a way. But now they realise they're miles off bayern, so they may go out and spunk a shedload of cash on the world's best players. They could become irresistable by doing that and all of a sudden their invincibility will be back.

Need to mix it up more to be able to go long at times and get a threat from wide into the box. Pep tried to do it with Ibra's signing but, apparently, caved in to personalities and got shut.They cant rely on Plan B Messi all the time.

He was accused of having sex with a woman while she was asleep. That's rape.

You can argue the charges are fabricated, assange's lawyers have, but that's what he's accused of.

That case was closed at one point and it's reopening always looked political.

Sure, Al Capote would never have been prosecuted for tax fraud had he been anyone else. Doesn't mean he didn't do it.

Anyway this Bayern side are quite good aren't they?

Piqué is probably their only fully fit striker at the moment when the need a plan B.

They haven't brought through their youngsters enough, Xavi has been carrying an injury since 2010 and Thiago should have been given a lot more playing time. Tello and Delefou have shown flashes but really haven't been given enough playing time.

So good. Not quite as good as Currywurst, but they're close
