eircom League in Europe - 2008

[Torn-Ado]

Michael Keane's wages are correct AFAIK (see the Pats subforum and relevant thread)

€3,250 - forex €1 euro equals approximately SEK 9, that gives SEK 29,250 per week (3250*9) and SEK 117,000 per month (29250*4).

And here's the article about the Swedish wages if you want to read it yourself

Okay. I misread 'month' for 'week'.

Drogs must be sick! ...and Spartak score first after 3 mins......

[finnpark]

Its not so long ago that Cork knocked out the Cyprus champions.

Tonight they won 3-0 and look set to be in the CL this season. :eek:

Is Irish football ok? :cool:

[Higgo]

I never thought I'd say this, but best of luck to Pats tonight. There has been so much bad news today, so much negativity....give us all something to smile about.

[TheBoss]

9 Mins: 0-0

[paul_oshea]

[pineapple stu]

3rd round 1st leg full time.

Spartak Moscow 1 Dynamo Kiev 4. :eek:
I can only imagine Kiev were given an almighty root up the hole after the Drogheda game and took this one more seriously. Amazing result though.

[TheBoss]

On that page, it is on the Digital Radio Stations under RTE Radio1 Extra

I can only imagine Kiev were given an almighty root up the hole after the Drogheda game and took this one more seriously. Amazing result though.

I have seen Kiev playing for about 3 years now, they play a real open attacking game, too open, that is why they usually get beat easily or win easily.

[ifk101]

No real goal chances yet. A few long shots from both teams. Elfsborg have a lot of the ball in their own half but Pats look comfortable so far ....

[ifk101]

penalty elfsborg :(

1-0 23 mins

poor penalty to give away - (questionable if it was a penalty)

[paul_oshea]

they sounded comfortable, but can they score now they need to.

[TheBoss]

They seem to gave contained them well, and then that.

[LeixlipRed]

What was peno for?

[Sheridan]

A foul in the box?

[ifk101]

What was peno for?

trip/push I think. they didn't show any replay and the picture is a bit blurry.

[LeixlipRed]

A foul in the box?

Quite the comedian

[Sheridan]

I'm here all week.

I think it was a trip by Lynch.

[paul_oshea]

floodgates.

[ifk101]

2-0. too easy

poor defending.

[TheBoss]

Pats must score now.

[pineapple stu]

End of that, I think.

Elfsborg have conceded five goals in the league all season. Are Teddy Lucic and Anders Svensson playing?

[TheBoss]

I heard their names, so they must be there.

[ifk101]

they just need to keep their heads and stop giving the ball away so easily. they were comfortable the first 20 mins but are struggling now since the penalty.

[ifk101]

Are Teddy Lucic and Anders Svensson playing?

Yes. Quigley is looking good going forward.

We played Apollon & their best player was a forward by the name of Sorin who scored the second goal yesterday. IMO beating Apollon was one of our best results in Europe & I would rank higher than Swedish teams. Certainly getting a draw in the 2nd leg in the conditions (heat & items thrown from crowd) was very good.

Those Cypriots won 3-0 at home in the 2nd round 1st leg but lost 1-3 away so not certain they will progress.

Elfs 2 Pats 0. Another goal for Elfs & tie is over.

tx boss

[ifk101]

looks like Quigley is playing up front now. was on the left wing.

[TheBoss]

Have you got the Elfsborg starting 11 ?

[centre mid]

Pats seem to have run out od ideas, a lot of aimless stuff.

[ifk101]

half time

pats were aimless last 15 - 20 mins of the half so they did well not to concede a third.

[ifk101]

Have you got the Elfsborg starting 11 ?

4-2-3-1 formation

Johan Wiland - Mathias Florén, Andreas Augustsson, Teddy Lucic, Martin Andersson - Daniel Mobaeck, Anders Svensson - Emir Bajrami, Lasse Nilsson, Stefan Ishizaki - Fredrik Berglund.

[TheBoss]

Cheers, a full strength team really.

[Higgo]

To me, it looks like St Pats are lacking in confidence. Elfsborg look handy enough in fairness but this is a very poor effort from Pats, very disappointin' stuff.

[ifk101]

Cheers, a full strength team really.

more or less.

[centre mid]

Goal chance for Pats

[ifk101]

half chance for ryan guy

[ifk101]

freekick just outside the box for elfsborg
