It's all coming together!

F'kin ESPN, put the Ajax game on E3 and it's in Spanish! Better than nothing, but really? The Dutch speak Spanish?

[BigBurk]

We don't! Hahaha.

[swordsandtequila]

Been watching this game not even ten minutes and H'veen could have scored 3 goals. Ajax standing on their heads.

[swordsandtequila]

Ajax hold on they better take their keeper out for a steak.

[BigBurk]

Yeah.. He kept us from a loss. But what a shitty day today.

Going out for a run, blowing of some steam!

[swordsandtequila]

Was a good pick, can't account for red cards. Should be some entertaining games in their CL pool.

[Vaughany]

Wow Van Persie covered his transfer cost already...amazing comeback

[Vaughany]

dammmmmmn Guzan with a great save in last minute saving Villa

Kind of feel sorry for Southampton, played fairly well and don't have much to show for it. Great finish by VP though!

[Vaughany]

Took Juve -1 A.H live-in-play after they scored the penalty...2-0 up at half-time so need one more goal

Monday:

Sporting Lisboa (POR) -1 -140* vs Rio Ave (POR) (3x) *LOSS*

Atletico Madrid (ESP-P) -½,-1 -137* vs Athletic Bilbao (ESP-P) (1x) *WINNER*

Tuesday:

Dinamo Moscow (UEFA-Europa) pk,+½ -128* vs VfB Stuttgart (UEFA-Europa) (1x) *WINNER* -half stakes-

Wednesday:

FC Cluj (UCL) pk -112* vs Basel (UCL) (2x) *WINNER*

Thursday:

Heerenveen (UEFA-Europa) -110* vs Molde (UEFA-Europa) (1x) *LOSS*

Partizan Belgrade (UEFA-Europa) -129* vs Tromso IL (UEFA-Europa) (1x) *WINNER*

Genk (UEFA-Europa) -124* vs Luzern (UEFA-Europa) (1x) *WINNER*

Friday:

Chelsea (UEFA SuperC) pk -124* vs Atletico Madrid (UEFA SuperC) (1x) *LOSS*

ADO Den Haag (HOL-E) pk,-½ -138* vs Groningen (HOL-E) (1x) *LOSS*

Saturday:

SC Heracles (HOL-E) +½ -116* vs RKC Waalwick (HOL-E) (1x) *WINNER*

Sunday:

Athletic Bilbao (ESP-P) +111* vs Valladolid (ESP-P) (1x) *WINNER*

Newcastle (ENG-P) -158* vs Aston Villa (ENG-P) (2x) *LOSS*

Ajax (HOL-E) -1 -115* vs Heerenveen (HOL-E) (2x) *LOSS*

So, the math shows us that last week went 7-6 with the bigger plays (again) losing, ultimately accounting for a loss of 5.77 units.

If only Newcastle and Ajax had won (like they should, let's be honest) a profit of 5 units would have been made. Only to say; again we were thát close to having a good week.

Just need the luck to change a bit and get us on the way this season!

I'm leaning Atletico pk -127 tonight, and even though I normally don't play totals I really like the over 2,2½ in that game (-128).

Input appreciated!

Betis, Atletico clash postponed

Monday's La Liga clash between Real Betis and Atletico Madrid has been postponed.
The scheduled fixture would have seen both teams deprived of their international players as they joined up with their countries ahead of next weekend's World Cup qualifiers, and was also three days after Atletico's European Super Cup clash with Chelsea.
A statement on the LFP's website read: "The Competition Committee of the Spanish Football Federation has given its agreement to the postponement of the match Betis-Atletico Madrid on the third matchday of La Liga.
"The meeting was originally scheduled for September 3, 2012 and will now be played at a new date to be determined."
Betis had expressed their unwillingness to call off the match at such short notice and club president Miguel Guillen told a press conference: "Atletico are defending their interests, it is legitimate, but the way it has happened seems to us indecent and outrageous.
"We are disappointed a body like the LFP have not deigned to pick up the phone and inform stakeholders of the problem. We learned through the media that a deal had been agreed before the first fax was received."
With arrangements already in place for matchday staffing and policing, Guillen added: "The legal department is studying the possibility of claiming damages for the logistics employed.
"Today [Friday] it seems the schedules are set more in line with the interests of television stations than fans. If this continues, the stadiums will be empty and people will have to subscribe to pay TV to watch their team."

Seems like Ronaldo wants to leave Madrid.. unhappy there.

Where the **** could he go? Who could pay the transfer fee and his salary? Man City could be the only one...

[Vaughany]

Paris St Germain maybe?! Two divas together with Zlatan

[BigBurk]

Haha yeah.. also could be an option!

Although I don't really think he will actually leave Madrid. They'd be stupid if they let him. Imagine the transfer fee for Ronaldo with three years of contract left? 150 mil?!

[Vaughany]

yeah would be huge amount...don't see Mourinho letting him go neither

[chidondollars]

yeah would be huge amount...don't see Mourinho letting him go neither

He allowed Zlatan to join Barca and won the champions league that season.

You got a point there!

Although I don't think Zlatan was as important for Inter as Ronaldo is for Real. Imagine Real without Ronaldo, they would not nearly be able to contend in Europe and/or the Spanish title.
