Celtic have drawn both red bull pieces of shit. Their fans will maul the piss weak supporters at those clubs. 

It's an abomination that both RB teams are allowed in the same competition, let alone the same fucking group.

I know I've said it before but I really don't like the cross-ownership model. I realise that being a Victory fan makes me naturally biased against CFG but I really feel that one club should be one club and an entity owning (and branding) multiple clubs, regardless of whether the ownership comes from an energy drink company or an energy producing Sheikh I really think it's not in the best interests of football. In decades to come we'll look back at this and see where it all started to go wrong.

Amen, he looks absolutely wrapped by the move. Well it is a sight better than Bursaspor I gather. Trent there as well + BVM looking on.

Loaned to Oldham Athletic who were relegated to League Two for this season, will surely get minutes.

Oldham's best result in the English league system was runners-up in the top tier 103 years ago by one point to Everton. Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham the bottom three teams that season, all finishing below Bradford (Park Avenue) AFC, a club that now needs parenthesis for anyone to tell who they are.

Golgol is on the bench for Sparta Praha. Half time Sparta 1 - Dukla Praha 0. Tetteh (ahead of him on the pecking order) is the goal scorer.

Lustica on the bench
Kalik not in the squad
Pasquali on the bench
Full match for Kruse, got an assist for the equaliser
Full match for Jurman, Rhys Williams, Duncan



By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Once again, old and slow Šural is subbed off for Pulkrab. Golgol is at least 4th on the pecking order up front.

Hes playing for the reserves. For the under 18 team he was one of their stars and so was pushed up.

That's right, and it should be noted that they play against seniors in the Dutch second division, the Eerste Divisie.

This will go unnoticed since everyone on this board seems to hate Robbie Kruse with a passion lately for some reason.
So I’ll say it, nice going Robbie.

In decades to come we'll look back at this and see where it all started to go wrong.

I'm not biased against City, I just dislike the very nature of their club. Melbourne City doesn't actually own any players, they are all in effect on loan from Manchester and if a decision has to be made in the interests of Melbourne or Manchester, Manchester will win every time. Hypothetically, if Arzani had wanted to go to PSV (and his contract still had years to go) and PSV made a good offer to Melbourne (say $2m), Melbourne would be blocked from taking it if Manchester thought they could get more money from loaning him out and hoping he earns a bigger fee next year. If that path risks Arzani's development and loses Melbourne their chance at a payday, who gives a shit? $2m is nothing to CFG and they'd burn through multiple Aussie talents if they think the overall strategy can be profitable.

Having a reserve team from Manchester in our league bugs the shit out of me.

so having a large club spend 10-20m investing in buying a team in our league... clearly knowing there's talent around... put in the best facilities around and for the first time ever provide a proper pathway to the big euro leagues and your whinging about that? jesus fucking christ mate.

That does seem to be a worst case scenario type theory, the reality is most young players have and will continue benefit from the cfg ownership
