I am going to take a division 4 team on, but until the Sporting mess is sorted I cannot divulge any more information.

Well, in that case, there's only one more thing left to do....

Estudiantes de LP beat Toulouse FC 2 - 1 in their SMFA Shield Group A fixture.
Mitroglou had an impressive game and was voted Man of the Match.
N\'zonzi was on the scoresheet for his side.

We were down 1-0 after four minutes, and were then down a man after Paul Veraugh (Mario Gaspar's replacement) was sent off after 19 minutes, but the ten men rallied and came back stronger to send us safely through to the next round as Group A winners by six points. Happy to say as well that, after Inter's thumping of Koln, albeit unnecessary (the hammering I mean, not the win (that was extremely necessary!), also sends them through to the knock out round.

No Sporting or Sunderland interest? Me thinks people are waiting for a definite on the situation over at the Camp Nou.

Imo you would have to be mad to apply for a role until Barca position is clarified ... the knock on / manager carousel that would follow a potential big job like that could be immense, would be mad to be locked into a new club

Hercule Poirot

There was a mournful atmosphere at the San Mames II Stadium this afternoon as journalists gathered for an impromptu press conference called by the Athletic Club manager amid very little fanfare and at very short notice. Dressed in a simple outfit of jeans and cardigan he gave the following statement:

"Recent events have shaken me to my core. I knew that Al was considering leaving so while I was prepared for his announcement the blow was still painful. I was not too familiar with the Sporting manager but I was an admirer of his work - and when we lose one of our brethren it is a loss for all. Which brings me to why I've asked you here today...."

At this point in his statement M. Poirot appeared visibly distressed, pausing momentarily to wipe a single tear from his eye before he continued:

"My Bear, my beautiful little Bear - his genius and intellect was too progressive for modern society, he was a square peg in a round hole, a gem hidden in a wasteland of destitution. I would like to thank him for his years of friendship, his awful advice and his maniacal laughter that resonates constantly within my soul...."

M. Poirot then burst into tears, ripping open his cardigan to reveal a My Chemical Romance t-shirt, he starting applying eye liner and black nail polish upon himself and began screaming obscenities at random members of the crowd before addressing the audience again:

"Look what that bastard has done to me," he roared as black tears rolled down his cheeks, "He promised he would never leave me! He promised we would go together with our heads held high - but look at me, LOOK AT ME!! My life is now empty, my world is darkness and my soul is stained black for eternity."

He then began playing Welcome To The Black Parade on his mobile phone and left the press conference head hung low, staring at the floor like the pathetic emo he has become. Even Eva cannot save him it seems.
