shen Posted 11 November 2015 Share Posted 11 November 2015 Borussia Mönchengladbach have failed to break a club record of seven straight wins in the Bundesliga. The goalless home draw against newly-promoted Ingolstadt was a feisty affair - including play acting, yellow and red cards, late drama and a lot of tension. Eden Hazard's brother Thorgan came close to secure all three points - in injury time and with a man down! Leicester-esque turnaround of their fortunes after that horrific start!

shen Posted 13 November 2015 Share Posted 13 November 2015 Meh, rather indifferent really. It's nowhere near as bad as it is made out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkon84 Posted 13 November 2015 Share Posted 13 November 2015 Hardly horrendous. It's a bit sunday league and could have been a lot better, but it's nowhere near as bad as some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MattP Posted 13 November 2015 Share Posted 13 November 2015 It's really shit that we can get Asian and African qualifiers on TV but not South American ones. Really shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted 14 November 2015 Share Posted 14 November 2015 (edited) It's really shit that we can get Asian and African qualifiers on TV but not South American ones. Really shit.That is shit, but aside from the time difference, it's probably because CONMEBOL and the federations are asking for stupidly high fees for the broadcast rights.Traffic Sports is (or at least has been) a big player in distributing the rights for Brazil games, so that tells you all you need to know. In the US, BeIN Sports shows all the SA qualifiers, but that's probably because it's owned by al-Jazeera, for whom paying for broadcast rights is like using Monopoly money.

purpleronnie Posted 17 November 2015 Share Posted 17 November 2015 Tim Cahill hatrick in 25 mins... but yeh, Bangladesh are no San Marino I would argue that the Aussie's route to the WC is always easy but given Englands easy qualifying groups I'm not so sure.

Aus Fox Posted 18 November 2015 Share Posted 18 November 2015 Asia is a pretty simple qualifying campaign where by Australia, Japan and South Korea all qualify without really being tested and we play to see who joins them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted 22 November 2015 Share Posted 22 November 2015 (edited) https://twitter.com/acciesfc/status/668393425692205056That's a nice gesture from a club and community that have shown themselves to have big hearts (notably with their outreach programs for recovering drug and alcohol addicts).I've never heard of a side wearing another team's shirts like that, at least not in modern times, aside from France wearing an Argentine club's shirts in 1978 for a kit clash (and with exception for clubs wearing their opponents' away shirts, like Leicester vs Brighton a few years ago). With the way licensing agreements are these days, I wonder if this was actually allowed (Nike and the FFF might have a strict exclusive agreement for their apparel/logos). I'm willing to think if so, all parties would put aside legal squabbles for this kind move... Although I'm not sure how many French fans would want to buy an Accies shirt Edited 22 November 2015 by Jordan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Etienne are also wearing an altered kit tonight. Where the sponsor usually would be is the circle with the Eiffel tower in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
