For the wonderful Bravo are showing Italian football now. Juve v Chievo tonight.
And yes, it's our good friend Super James Shiny Bald Head Richardson in the studio and everything.
Hurrah, I can put the razor blades away

Cretins, down. Cretins.

I used to watch the Italien football on Channel 4 a few years back.

I've hardly seen any since

Even when teams were constantly turning out 5-4 wins, week-in, week-out, some friends of mine still insisted Serie A was boring, not having watched a match in years.

To be fair, the Scottish team in the 70s had some amazing talent in it.

The best Liverpool team a few years back was full of Scottish people and I mean full.

Now, kids are fat and lazy and have no chance to get a place. Myself (and to a greater extent my brother) were very good at football but the only chance was getting scouted by the one bloke who came about once a year to our town.

Now to watch Rangers get humped

Why can it not be insulted when there's very little reason for not doing so?

Money and reputation and location.

You lose on atleast 2 out of the 3 of those key signing tie-breakers.

The only way you'll grow is by joining the Premiership. But that's just silly.
:D

Yeah, you'd think, with Scottish clubs having no money and stuff, they'd be forced to nurture Scottish talent and you'd have a pretty good future ahead of you. Unfortunately, it's just never happened for you. Well, you once thought it was going to, when that manager promised you the World Cup and went round on an open topped bus and stuff before the world cup, but that was different...

Scotsport has been on for 10 minutes.

First break and no highlights!

I don't thinkour league is the best in the world, I just resent people insulting it. The good thing is that some clubs are so skint it means some young talent are being forced into the squads.

Russian league getting a second spot in the Champs League despite having no-one in European competition this year?

I love stuff back-firing into Uefa's faces.

Just as I'd clicked 'Post this message' I thought about that. And I thouht you'd be the one to bring it up. Thanks.

Yeah, there's really no reply to that, because I'm wrong and stuff. Well done.

Nonda at Roma eh?

Bit of a gamble going for a relatively young player like that.

Has he developed from the late match super sub goalscorer that he was for Monaco?


And also multiple yaysies for Vieira going to Juve, being my second team and all. It just means Juve will be even more dominant, unlike the shaky "we'll have to beat you in a scoring spree" mentality which was adopted last year in Serie A.

Ultra crapness at missing out on going to a Milan match last year though.

*sigh*
