Europa League 3rd Oct

[Blue Mist]

I can't think of any more cheese puns so I just want to wish the lickle raggies the best of luck tonight in Alkmaar, if they keep it tight it might only be a 3-0 loss for the out of town scum.

Oh by the way Alkmaar do not have a Lord Mayor, instead the have a Burgher, I believe his full title is a cheese burgher.

Seen AZ a couple of times online this season, doing well and a fast team, should it be a level playing field they'll win tonight at 15/8 is a great price for the Dutch.

Playing on a plastic pitch as well. They are replacing it straight after tonight's game.

Used to go out with a lady in Alkmaar - Around the time they last won their league.
Lovely place Alkmaar. As was all the other bits of Holland I saw.
Nice stadium from the outside as well, drove past it a few times.

Come on AZ!


NB And no, I'm not following the pic rules, as she was 6ft 5", and I still keep in contact.

I just saw a line that said he wouldn't risk Pogba on that pitch but assumed it was muddy/bumpy or whatever. So he wont risk the shite on a plastic pitch ! what a stupid excuse, why not be honest and say he has been dropped.

Why kicking off so early?

Why kicking off so early?

This year in the Champions League & Europa League there are two games per night kicking off early - Real Madrid vs Brugge kicked off on Tuesday at 17:55, as did Atalanta vs Shaktar. I would imagine it enhances the TV money with two bites at the cherry

I'm struggling to understand just how shit their squad is, how do you spend the money they have and put out a team like that tonight.

Ole has been moaning about the pitch,excuses in early

 

[kippaxwarrior]

That line up is shit

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Looks like Wolves have put out quite a strong team.

Potentially bodes well for us before playing them on Sunday.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Stadium at AZ not even half full apparently

 

[remember arthur mann]

Newton Heath Loco playing er ? Newton Heath Loco !

Pitch looks fine to me,how the mighty have fallen,it makes me laugh that no-one makes a big deal of them being in the europa league,it's like they daren't mention it or have a laugh at their expense,can you imagine if this was us,we would be crucified

Damn offside
