The Big Fat European Latest Thread

**John83** · 06/08/2009, 4:56 PM

I won't bother starting a new thread for this. Would anyone care to explain to me what the hell the 'paper of record' is going on about here:

The League of Ireland side may have been flanked by a heavyweight total of three supporters but this was always going be a tough assignment.

I can't tell if it's a dig at Pats or just some garbled nonsense.

Only just found out now thanks to TV3 - after a long report from 'football mad' Dunmanway....."we're mad for Liverpool, we go and see them twice a year"

Unbelievable result - well done Pat's and Derry to join them

It will mean that both St. Pats and Derry would have done the league proud this season in Europe.

I think Bohs did well to be fair.
Looking at the league table and the respective positions of both Pats and ourselves this result really highlights how poor our efforts were in Europe.

billsthoughts you are reading that post too literally.

I am very happy that Pats got through.

My reverse-jinxing worked a treat!

Just got in now, was 3-0 when I left for home. Unbelievable result.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dundalk were fielding bids for Fabio before the window closes. Regardless of his age, there are plenty of mid-ranking clubs around Europe who would be perfectly willing to take a punt on someone with that scoring record in Europe, almost sight unseen. Particularly when they could have him for buttons.

Glad to see you're a man of your word

I'm glad I wasn't driving when I heard this on the radio, I think I'd have crashed if I wasn't in the passenger seat, the last I had heard was 3-0 down and out, amazing turn around, now come on Derry and make this a truly stunning night for the League of Ireland.

St. Pat's join Vaslui from Tuesday's game.
Two years in a row into the competition proper, good stuff.

Imagine if Pats got Dinamo Moscow!!!

Bate Borisov wouldnt be a bad one if looking to progress

**Sheridan** · 06/08/2009, 5:41 PM

That Michael Lyster **** gave Pat's props for about thirty seconds and then launched into a rant about LOI teams not having enough local players, unlike his beloved Gah. Gimp.

**eirebhoy** · 06/08/2009, 5:43 PM

The oul paranoid Russians.

Guys, the next fixed match has been played. I do not have doubtless approvements but I can look through my eyes and make my conclusion:
1) This match again wasn't broadcasted on TV and other medias. I can't remember any time when Russian team wasn't shown on TV in eurocups. Even matches with Andorra teams were to be.
2) The process of match. Krylya easily were outplaying guests in first 70 minutes and led 3-0. But then they suddenly forgot how to play. Up to the moment when one player ever forgot where are guests' gates.
SHAME for Krylya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
