I put L1 Rs because there are a lot of interesting things happening within the league today, and I'll probably post scores within the thread. So if you don't want to see scores of other games, you should probably avoid the thread.

Please win.

My sentiments, exactly.

I'm...pretty nervous right now. I'm glad there's a stream for this, hopefully it works. I was worried I'd have to watch Lyon-Nancy and follow this game on om.net, which is even worse as far as nerves.

[SportBoy333]

Well I dont want Nancy in the Champions League and I want OM there instead. Nancy are a low budget, boring team who scores few goals. They are much more suited for the UEFA Cup. They cant hang with the big boys in Europe and would get disgraced and embarassed and knocked out of the qualifying round.

[SuperSebGrimaldi]

Not to be argumentative, but actually couldn't we have said the same thing about Lille some seasons ago? In any event, I do agree that l'OM are more suited than Nancy for the Champions League. However, I don't think they are much of a threat against the "big boys" of Europe, either.

It seems there has only been one goal of real importance so far in the league, Toulouse lead 1-0. Pauleta just had a very good chance saved on a shot which he probably should have placed better.

Don't know if you were here back then but I was saying the same thing about Lille at that time as I am now about Nancy. I even created a "Lille sucks" thread that was soley dedicated to bashing them.

As for OM against the big boys, I watched them take it right to Liverpool in their first meeting and dominate them. Karim Ziani was the man of the match.

RIP PSG

Lille 1-0 Lens, Cabaye with the goal. Puts them in the drop zone.

This multicast is the only thing I could get to work, so I'm getting a bit of every game.

[prvev]

And PSG answer by allowing a goal. 1-0 for ASSE. PSG back in the drop zone.

Good. Keep us posted. I cant see any matches.

[prvev]

Bah, Lyon scored but it was wrongly ruled offside. Damn it.

[SportBoy333]

And PSG answer by allowing a goal. 1-0 for ASSE. PSG back in the drop zone.

This is both great and crazy. I want Lens down and PSG and TFC up. I'm crossing my fingers.

[prvev]

Bordeaux score one of the worst goals ever. Puts them level on points with Lyon, but behind on GD. Hopefully that inspires Lyon. Or something.

Dude, that was one game. What happened after that is they fell flat on their.

[prvev]

By the way, halftime at stade Léon-Bollée, 0-0. Most games are at halftime now.

[SportBoy333]

Is Nasri choking again ?

[prvev]

I haven't seen enough to know. But I finally found some place that works showing just our game, and they're showing the highlights during halftime. I didn't see him really featured.
