Scraping into the CL qualifiers on the last minute of the last game of the season

===

Sounds familiar that
----------------------------------------------------------------------

They missed out on CL altogether one of the other years too.

I think Tu Meke's life is in safe hands.

And no I don't mean Sergio Ramos.

when depor won it in 99/00, there was an 8 point spread between the top 6 clubs (which included alaves )

If you had to pick, Ramos or Koscielny?

Ramos no doubt. We don't score enough goals.

If Madrid lose the league and spurs win the league I might just top myself
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't. If it did come to pass, you could live to 100 and still wouldn't have to watch Spurs win it again.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

No darren, I meant if your life depended on either of those winning a one on one to stop a player going through on goal, who would you choose?

Fackin' awesome season that.

Madrid only made the CL by virtue of UEFA not wanting the holders to miss out

Atleti, Sevilla and Betis got relegated.

Espanyol won the cup. In the final they beat relegated Atleti, who had in turn beaten Barça 6-0 on aggregate in the semis...

Mental

Difficult question actually, both very good one on one defenders when switched on. Probably Ramos just.

Just realised Barca have broken the 100 goal barrier in La Liga tonight. We've scored 50.

For perspective, players relegated included Alfonso, Finidi, Denilson, Hasselbaink, Valerón, Capdevila, Solari, Kiko, Molina, Baraja, Juninho, Marchena, Reyes...

Managers who came and went for the bottom 3 included Ranieri, Hiddink and Raddy Antic.

Quite a collection.

Yeah but the prem is more competitive now.

50 PL goals > 100 Liga goals

In fact, I read the PL is going to have its goal coefficient for Golden Boot calculation boosted to 10 next season.

All other leagues drop back to 1, except Scotland, whose goals are worth 0.8 (generous I thought).

I hope you all get hit by a bus

You haven't yet, so there is hope after all ...

Be careful what you wish for

Wish what you look for

Fishbone wishbone

What a terrible game of football.

Mourinho vs Pep is losing its charm.

It's all Pep's fault.

ginger men beware around horny orangutans

<rofl?

"Kalimantan | An ecologist’s dream to watch orangutans in their natural habitat quickly turned into his worst nightmare after being savagely attacked and raped by a 400-pound orangutan in the jungle of Borneo. Zack O’Reilly, a young 26-year-old from Ireland, who is presently studying biology at Dublin city University and has been a Greenpeace activist for the past three years, had always dreamed of seeing orangutans in their natural habitat and was a strong advocate against the palm oil industry, which is a great threat to the endangered species.

The young man was quickly brought back to a missionary hospital near Kalimantan where he lay unconscious for many hours and where doctors found traces of internal bleeding.

Familiar traits

Kekbek Mahlouiak, one of the tour guides present on the dramatic trip, says he has warned various tourists to be careful around the animals.

“I specifically told him to wear a hat and hide his orange hair, that it could entice the orangutans. I’m not surprised of what has happened, I warned him many times. He did not listen,” he told local reporters.

“It is very dangerous for people with orange hair, the males get very excited. A male followed us deep into the jungle many kilometers, he was very aggressive. There is nothing I could do,” he added.

An isolated incident

A spokeswoman for the Borneo Tourism Board said it is the first time an orangutan has physically assaulted a tourist on one of their jungle treks.

“We are deeply horrified and saddened by the whole affair. We have offered the young victim a free tour if he ever wishes to come back again and will provide increased security for our travelers in the future,” she added.

A similar incident was previously reported in a Jakarta zoo in 2014, when a young red-haired woman was hospitalized after an orangutan broke out of its cage and tried to mate with the visitor, resulting in the death of the animal by zoo employees."
