Champions League - 28th November

[dougie donnelly]

Charming Nastro and your point exactly!!! Surely it is about opinions and I got mine wrong tonight although I stand by my comments. I thought it was democratic on this forum but looks like I was wrong . Do me a favour and keep your comments for the playground.

No no Liverpool and you are crap with your nick. I watch that game, well nothing special, except result.

Liverpool did not play bad or very good, they did what they had to do!
The game started well for Liverpool and then the last 10 minutes of first half they suddenly stopped playing and let Porto in who then should have scored a 2nd before half time! Truth be told the 1st gaol for Porto should have been a foul on Mascherano as he was pole axed by the winger before he got the cross in for the striker to head home!
Whoever states Liverpool were crap in this game obviously has no knowledge of football -

Liverpool Porto

(taken from BBC Sports Site)

The 2nd half was inevitably edgy from Liverpool to begin with until Torres slotted home the 2nd goal. Liverpool then for the last 15 minutes looked like they could score whenever they went forward.
Porto's zonal marking is not good and if Liverpool were any better at the set pieces, then the scoreline could have been even more!
This league table is not over yet for Besiktas, Marseille, Porto and Liverpool and makes the final league game for each team a must win game as the financial implications of making it to knockout stages as very lucrative in deed.
Liverpool looking dead and buried after the first 3 games have risen from the grave and you would be folly not to fancy them to get that all important win in Marseille - after beating Besiktas 8 nil, then Porto 4 v 1 respectively.

Hi folks,

can someone recommend a site where i can get teams and shirt numbers for Euro / Champs league games please ?

I usually use sportinglife for domestic games, but they do not give this information on Euro games

many thanks

That's out of order and not acceptable on here Nastro, I assume an apology is forthcoming?

[dougie donnelly]

Been a member for a long time and also on the previous format and I have not had to put up with such a childish attitude. We live in hope!!!

[nastro 1888]

if its a crime to defend your club against sarcastic remarks then I apologise.

Sorry not getting involved, no crime just opinion so I take it no apology is forthcoming!!!!!!!!

Hardly sarcasm however it may be an idea to practice what you preach ie England etc. Back to your glass house with your silly remarks!

No apology was demaded from that ''nindza'' guy, he simply got banned. Bring him back in, he was certainly entertaining and never used abusive language, spiced up this forum well for 2 nights. Bring him back on a sole condition to change his name to The Fix Man

We're not here to defend clubs like 5 year olds, sorry but your "dickhead" remark was that of a 5 year old.

We're here to bet and make profit, not playground crap, so if I see that again Nastro, you will get a 24 hour ban I promise, because it's childish and not acceptable.

[MartinJB12]

Sorry Paul but I feel the need to defend Nastro here. if you take a look at this DD guys previous history with regards to betting on Celtic games is to state that celtic will get hamerred and to bet strongly on whoever Celtic are playing. Now a main part of the pl rules state to give decent reasons behind your tips. This guy's only reasoning is simply to slate Celtic at every opportunity and use that as an excuse to back the other side. An extremely "childish" reason for backing a team in such a big fixture. DD's resentment towards Celtic most likely stem from his associatopn with Rangers and the unfortunate West of Scotland bigoted attitude he has towards his teams rivals. His views that Celtic would not have a hope in hell at home against shakhtar were indeed narrow minded and "childish". OK Nastro's comments were a bit strong, but the point he was making was more than justified. A threat of a ban is indeed harsh here in my opinion.

[dougie donnelly]

A few misquotes there me thinks. As for bigoted!! I think not. Hearts supporter from the east coast sorry to dissapoint you!

Whilst I haven't looked into any previous comments from DD, it's still a playground reaction and a 24 hour ban is more than justified for anyone who thinks they can start insulting people in any forum bar GC or Sports Banter, where it is an entirely different matter.

This is the champions league betting forum, not the champions of the playground forum.

[Paul Ross]

Having reviewed DD's previous comments, while they may be a bit hasty without a great deal of reasoning, that's no crime and I don't see a war against Celtic in any of his posts.
