Big week ahead, the added incentive is finishing ahead of man united which will be a minor landmark.  

I read somewhere that if you take form from mid November chelsea would be second, I cant believe that but if true it may be the start of 1BN starting to repay itself, Mudryk is still crap though.

Would love Dortmund to overcome Real. 

Real have a serious knack of getting the job done though. Their record in this competition in last 10 or so years is stupidly good. 

Oxford through to play Bolton in the final! Peterborough came very close towards the end.

Ohhhh that linesman cannot be putting the flag up when it’s that close! He looked onside. Jesus Christ. 

Just now, Mel81x said:

Hot topic of discussion in the morning for sure. That linesman made a big mistake and why it wasn't reviewed considering there wasn't that much of time behind the ball being put into the back of the net and the whistle is hard luck on Bayern.

Not reviewed because ref had already blown. However, it's so close the linesman had to be playing on. 

Lino has fucked up there.

If we retain the world club title we are champions of the world again, Europe is part of the world so yes 

Thanks for proving me right...

As for the link two quotes from top of my head. @Storts "Guaranteed title with Bayern in this league" @Danny" Even I would win the German title with Bayern."

As I said I show the same respect as you do, only difference being my claims are factual correct.

That's weird the link takes me to a matchday thread from Feb 2023

As for the claims, you miss out a lot of context for the Sancho/Man Utd thing. 

What have I claimed that isn't false? We just have a difference of opinion on some things. And you're attributing things to me that I didn't say... 

What is Burrows doing? Blatant handball from a free kick, gifting Oxford a penalty. 

Peterborough level on aggregate. Knight scoring to make it 1-0.

Right now we are still the Champions of Europe and all the world. thanks for asking 

How's the defence of it going? Will you be retaining that title?

Read through this thread http://talkfootball365.com/topic/18417-harry-kane-joins-bayern-munich/ for the bolded part.

As for the Sancho's door part. It's as reasonable to put  either the league deterioration and the CL succes at Sancho's and Maatsen's door or none of either.Because being of of impact  but contemparanious being of no impact for the same team is simply impossible.

 

 

 

You're the one pretty much saying they've made no impact, right? 

No one is saying it has to be one or the other? All I see you doing is downplaying any of their contribution just because they played in the PL? First thing you mentioned about Sancho was that he warmed the bench at Man Utd, as if that has any bearing on how he performs at Dortmund. He was clearly unhappy at Man Utd and I very much doubt it was due to lack of talent that he didn't play. 

As for the link to that thread, what am I supposed to be seeing? I don't see anything about 'farmers league' so I'm not sure what the relevance of linking to that thread is?

I'm hating English football and am disregarding the reality? So Sancho didn't warm the bench at Man Utd mainly? Or didn#t they crush out of their CL group against Copenhagen and Olympiacos? Or weren't it @Danny, who said Kane would win the Buli easily with Bayern? How did that pan out by the way? It's not as much a case me not liking English football, as you not liking your football receive the same respect as you have shown towards foreign football. Reminder I said the truth it were  the English fans talking about Bayern walking the farmer's league who were wrong. You were giving now it's time to take.

You're very degrading of it. There's reasons for Sancho not succeeding at Man Utd - he 'warmed the bench' because he fell out with the manager. 

You then imply that Dortmund aren't better off purely because they finished 5th this season compared to last, and put that at Sancho's door? 

You also seem to imply that it's Kane's fault that Bayern didn't win the league? It really isn't unreasonable to suggest Kane and Bayern would win the league and I know you know there are other factors why Bayern didn't win. 

Not sure where I've said Bundesliga is a farmers league? I'd like to think in quite respectful of Bundesliga and definitely rate it nowhere near a farmers league? Is this even a common concept, or you just jumping on what one person says and thinking that's what all English fans think?

tually I'm undecided whether it's ridiculous or insultingly disrespectful to suggest a player, who consistently warmed the bench at a team crashing out of a CL group consisting of European giants like Copenhagen and Olympiacos as rock bottom would improve a team reaching the CL final. Das ist mein voller Ernst!

We get it, you hate English football

Thanks. 

@CaaC (John) @Rucksackfranzose please amend your predictions if you want to for the Man Utd/Newcastle fixture correction. 

At what point do Everton just scrap 777 Partners as a potential owner and look to other buyers? I know they've got loans repayable back to them but on the face of it they'll seem more of a hindrance to the club than a benefit?

Does make you think that if there maybe a hung parliament, it'll probably be Labour and the Lib Dems, assuming the Lib Dems can get their shit together enough to take advantage of Starmer's shit on a stick like charisma.

I do wish people (in general) would stop using 'charisma' as a marker of a good PM or not.

Boris Johnson had lots of it and was a terrible PM.

Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have very little to none and also made terrible PMs.

It's policies and clean personalities which make good leaders. Not least at such a treacherous time for politics these days. I'd rather Starmer be boring but get UK back on track with decisive policies and bringing people together* as opposed to having charisma and not actually getting anything done. 

*contentious point given that I think society is has gone past the point of no return with how divisive it is. And that I put firmly at the door of the Tories thanks to their rhetoric since they came into power and 2016 Brexit was a big catalyst for it.

Natalie Elphicke has just swapped from Tory to Labour. She's on record as having attacked trade unions over P&O Ferries' fire and rehire a couple of years ago amongst other things. She's pretty right wing and pedals the Boris Johnson fan-fiction that Rishi Sunak took over the Conservatives via a political coup.

She's the MP for Dover and is standing down at the next election, so the chosen Labour candidate is still going to stand in her seat, and this is clearly a handshake deal that she can join to make Rishi Sunak look like a tit at Prime Minister's Questions today without actually having a long-term future in the Labour Party. But she is still not remotely the type of person they should be welcoming into their tent.

I just don't get why Labour do this to themselves. They're on track for a huge win at the next election and if they're losing any votes, it's on the left. There is no need for them to make this move and risk alienating a bunch of people on the left and centre-left just to consolidate their position with centre and centre-right voters who are already overwhelming leaning towards them or at least toward not voting instead of voting Tory.

Baffling.

Bizarre. It's like Labour are through on goal without a goalkeeper in the opposition goal, and they've still missed.

Extremely disappointing that Starmer has welcomed her with open arms, too. She's the exact kind of person to steer well clear of given her recent comments and views over past 2-3 years. She's vile and you'd think Starmer would just want as little controversy or controversial individuals in the party as possible. Welcoming Elphicke to the party just stinks of naivety and takes a backwards step after gaining so much ground in last week's locals.
