Languishing in Paris

710

When watching Real Mardrid, Barcelona or Bayern Munich it is easy to be discouraged at the gap between where we are and the quarter finals of the Champions League, but despite the many hundreds of millions spent on both Paris St Germain and Chelsea, the standard of passing and decision making throughout their game last night was abysmal.   Despite their win, PSG were the worst offenders last night, even the Great One was poor.

There is now a real prospect that no English side will make it to the semi-final stage of either European tournament for the first time since 2003, when Liverpool were last to drop out, at the quarter finals stage of the Uefa Cup……..  You’re welcome.

What struck me most watching last night’s game was Sky TV’s Gary Neville pondering how long PSG’s star players would languish in such a poor league.  This is the French league we’re talking about here, not the Scottish Premiership, it’s Paris, not the ‘New East End’!

It’s easy to mock Neville but he asks an interesting question, will players always migrate to a higher-profile league?  If so, there are more clubs than just Celtic in need of structural change.

  4. leftclicktic We are all Neil Lennon 16:46,

     

     

    Myself and an olde Gentleman I was working with at the Time tried to tell one of the most indoctrinated, he was quite clever no doubt, he could regurgitate most pro Rangers nonsense and had others believing the hype, that they had to stop buying season tickets if they wanted to go anywhere. I was being subtle as possible, over 12 months on, I hope he realises for Rangers to do anything, they must realise the old Club Died.

     

     

    Rangers 2012, Bring it on.

     

     

    LCT, Brilliant Big Chap. ;))

    Just read Kev Jungle’s comments in the Daily Record there.

     

     

    Having a pop at Neil Lennon and Leigh Griffiths, oh dear. Disappointing to say the least.

     

     

    It’s not like there is a lack of criticism towards our club in that paper. Is it a cry for attention?

  6. today I decided to treat Charles (son) and Charlie (grandson) to a burger king (the wee fella loves the play area in EK ) I also took along Nicola (daughter) to stop us looking like a complete bunch of charlies…..howevah, we got on to talking about the april fools that have been portrayed in various celtic websites, Charles gave a stern look and I asked ‘don’t tell me you fell for one?’…….’not a football one dad but Julie got me hook line and sinker’ Julie being his partner since his schooldays, this girl is a lovely girl keeps a lovely house and is a great mother, but not a prankster,if you get my drift so I sat up in surprise letting him continue ‘I got up first on the morning of the 1st and did my usual teeth hair and face thing before setting of to work, when I saw a pregnancy test stick with the two lines on it on top of the cistern, as I was running late I just headed out to work, so for the rest of the morning I had the worry about how can we afford another kid, dad I was bricking it, Julie phoned him at lunchtime as this generation do and when he asked about the pregnancy stick, she bursts out laughing thinking that he hadn’t seen it so her wee cunning plan, had misfired (that was my pun) she thought that he would have reacted immediately,and as he didn’t, he couldn’t have seen it……..instead he had a worrying morning at work …….ma poor wee bhoy

    Thinking about what Eric Joyce said day before yesterday and what could happen.

     

     

     

    Tiny specks of dust are falling through the atmosphere

     

    Sunlight passes through them, they don’t easily appear

     

    Some fall on the water, some fall on the land

     

    Some of them will fall on you if you hold out your hand

     

    “Father, oh, and mother, How is there such great alarm?

     

    If you cannot see them, then, how can they do you harm?”

     

    “They can make you suffer, they can make you change

     

    They are over Norway and quite soon we’ll be in range.”

     

    All our teeth are falling out like leaves upon the ground

     

    All our hair is falling out, no other can be found

     

    Some are dying slowly, some are dying fast

     

    Some of us hold on to life as long as we can last

     

    Poison and invisible, it falls all round the world

     

    Fifteen hundred roentgens for every boy and girl

     

    We just read the papers, we just watch TV

     

    Passive as the cattle we await our destiny

    Different medicinal mushrooms can be effective against different cancers.

     

    They do not interfere with other treatments.

     

    There’s a website called “cancer defeated” and many others that you can find.

     

    Mushrooms or fungi have very special sugar compounds that human cells can absorb.

     

    This boosts the immune system but on top of this different mushrooms have special chemicals that are effective against particular cancers.

     

    There are suppiers for these medicinal mushroom treatment products which can be found on the internet. They can be ordered from Germany for instance.

     

    Check out www. Myco Vital.de .You can phone them they speak english.

    A Cambridge statistician has by using the formula.

     

    Ln + In + Ah + 05(Tf + Ts)

     

     

    Picked Monbeg Duke to win the race.

     

     

    He has studied all the 169 results and his model is based on analysing the names and ages of the horses that have won in an attempt to find a pattern.

     

    Most winners are 9 years old and results show horses with between 8 and 10 letters have best chance of winning.

    Frank Ribery’s brother Benoit was only given a contract at Paris Saint-Germain because he had some dirt on the owner.

  17. I dinnae get to see posts all the time because of work, is Ernie Lynch ok?

     

     

    He was always a regular poster, A top poster in my mind as well, if you get by the occasional put down. ;)

     

     

    I hope he hasn’t joined philvis down in his ranch in Venezuela, if both the stalwarts are there, it is indeed Time to get out of Dodge.

    I don’t think Ernie would settle for mucking out the stables for Philvis.

  22. Steinreignedsupreme 17:32

     

     

    I wouldn’t underestimate philvis like that, I’m sure he’d definitely muck out the stables for Ernie.
