Aleks The Peacemaker

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Anyone who takes political baggage onto the football field should be shown the door by Uefa or Fifa and that should be the end of that!

lets see what uefa make off it £10.000 fine and slap on the hand

but if that was England well lets say a 10 year ban in all formats of the game if we are lucky

Just shows the incompetence of UEFA....They allow Serbia and Albania play each other despite political indifferences, but deliberately keep apart Spain and the footballing / political Titan that is Gibraltar.

YCNMIU.

That's the first time I have seen that video. Aleks showed a lot of guts there. He could easily have copped one from one of the nutters out there.

He has certainly earned my respect for that. Well done Aleks.

Would you try and land one on Aleks!?!?

Yes, it was always going to be a worry. Germany v Poland is only just about civilised now.

It's OK at tournaments run by UEFA/FIFA on neutral ground but this home and away business was always asking for trouble. Although the spectre of Israel playing in France [with 4 or 5 million Arabs] will be problematic to say the least.

I suspect that the second leg will be on neutral grounds behind closed doors [Italy?].

Sorry, back on topic. Aleks is the business. Cool, hard and funny. In fact, the funniest ironic stare in football. Comic genius.

Academy youngster Bersant Celina is Albanian.

He's been in the national squad but don't think he was on the pitch last night.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Plays for Kossovo doesn't he? (Albanian descent).

Think Bytiqi similar (Austrian national).

 

[CrownPointBlue]

He's a hard - and funny - bastard. Never backs out and looks after his mates.....they love him in the dressing room.

Such lovely people the Serbs. Responsible for more trouble in Europe in the last 100 years than any other. No wonder everyone hates them.

Credit to Kolarov though.

I think you might have just been timed out on that claim, PB.

I don't hate them. Met plenty of Serbs during my time in Eastern Europe and found them nice people on the whole (much more pleasant than the Albanians I met anyway).
