Football : Season 2007/2008

[DocDutch]

TBR, I know the dutch havent been playing proper footie for a while (sack the manager game is needed) but I think as soon as there is a decent manager again (bring back Louis van Gaal or Guus Hiddink) there will be fire again, say a team with Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben on the flanks together with say Ryan Babel and Dirk Kuyt in the attack.

Trust me. I haven't The Scots play with their hearts in it and should be applauded for it.

Actually, after our recent displays i think we'll have you. The only trouble is that i dont actually think your lot will be our biggest problem, that will come in the form of Macedonia and Norway.

We'll see. They should be interesting matches. BTW: Holland struggle with the smaller nations as well.

And support from Sneijder and Van der Vaart, and the option to bring on Huntelaar. Good things could happen. Oh Yes

How is RVN these days ?
We don't seem to hear much about him.

[DocDutch]

he's alright at Madrid

So, McClaren gets sacked, and now Billy Davies gets sacked from Derby (McClarens former employer) Interesting timing!

McClaren is 25/1 for the Derby job, might just be worth a punt me thinks.

Mcleish leaves the jocks

Players back Redknapp for England job..

Redknapp arrested...

Hopefully Weymouth will stand aside tomorrow, then United will, with any luck, get a good draw in the next round.........fingers crossed on both accounts.

If Germany had swapped places with Romania then Group C would be incredible.

Thats true, the rounds after would be crap as well as only two of the best sides will have gone through.

You might like to look at the head to head stats. Not too shabby.
