Uefa Cup (Scores included)

Thanx 4 The Fish

First of the british clubs are in battle today.

Earlier game sees blackburn getting spanked by Leverkusen 3 - 1 at the moment but still time to play, Nancy Drawing 1 each with Shaktar, Bordeaux - Osasuna & CSKA - Haifa with nil all draws. Fenerbahce - Alkmaar one all too, kicked off at 6 so still a half to play.

Rangers have a reasonable easy tie v Hapoel kicking off in a few mins.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Blackburn pulled another back. 3 - 2.

Fenerbahce - AZ would seem to be the game of the night so far. 3-3 and still 10 minutes to go. AZ always seem like a great side for high-scoring games; haven't got the stats to hand but their league games always seem to produce goals as well.

Werder Bremen - Ajax just started. I can see goals in this one as well.

I watched most of the AZ match. What a team they are to watch. 1 particular move at the end of the first half was top class. A double 1-2 between 2 players which resulted in a 6 yard shot on goal.

As a Blackburn fan, I have a good feeling this year about the Uefa Cup. We didnt deserve that result. Leverkusen shouldve cruised it due to our dodgy form and some key players out. We seem to be getting good fortune in Europe ( eg. against Nancy)

Europe has been so cruel to us for too long. Its time to return

(We better do it this year though, because we wont be there next year;) )

Yep 3-1 with 10 mins to go. Not even Newcastle can throw this lead away*

*Not a Pighead guarantee

No, as opposed to an over 35s Sunday morning side.

Is it not possible to make a simple statement without some wise ass cracking (un)funny?

Missed the Toon game (feckin GMT evening kick offs ) but delighted with the result and apparent return to form of Duff

I was reading a Newcastle forum there. Jesus they don't give players much of a chance. :eek: Half them seem to hate Duff already.

Sadly the same at Spurs, I've heard some people write of Ricardo Rocha already!

Yeah some of them do my head in. How people can so easily write off proven world class players in barely a dozen games is beyond me. So many knee jerk reactions out there, though by no means exclusive to the Toon Army from what others I occasionally read.

I'm very happy with 3-2. Blackburn are in a good position going into the second leg.
