Today's football.

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.

sounds like a job for Davey Moyes.......

I would laugh so so much if he got the barca job.

Humbling that for Barca. Bayern will blow Dortmund away in the final.

Be a damn sight better final than the last one on my birthday.

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.

The woman's story wasn't that she was asleep, it was that she was "sleepy", and that she "sleepily" told him to make sure he was wearing a condom. He replied "yeah, yeah" and went for it, which she "allowed". Turns out he wasn't wearing rubber after all. She wasn't happy.

As they were both naked in bed, and had been having consensual sex all night, I struggle to define this as rape. You can call it caddish, arrogant, sleazy, seedy, perverted, male-**** or whatever...but rape it's not.


But Assange is 'known' to be a "rapist" by most of the world's online population. He is put in the same basket as genuine rapists, who genuinely hurt women.

And all this because he dared to reveal that video of shoot-em-up soldiers in a helicopter...

I think the final will go to penalties

In his defence Dudek was a few yards off his line. Should've been retaken.

You're confusing two different people as if they're the same one. There were two woman involved.

Assange's lawyer's have argued that the woman was sleepy not asleep and that the police exaggerated that statement, yes. But the swedish police charged him with having sex with an entirely asleep person.

See this article. Again his lawyers say that charge was fabricated but that's still the charge.

Imagine ginger bollix at the Nou Camp. Neville replacing Xavi.

I think the final might be overly defensive too

I'm expecting Brazil Vs Italy from USA '94 basically

Italy always play defensively. Bayern and Dortmund only know one way to play.

This will be a belter of a final.

That article you link is totally bogus. Assange has not been formally charged with any offence.

He has been "accused", and is thus wanted for questioning.


The BBC is a more reliable source...tho' the term "rape" is used often enough for skim-readers to associate Assange with being a rapist.

It'll be 6-4 to Bayern.....
