As a rider: The best Swiss Nati was that of the 80s with Heinz Hermann/Marcel Koller/Lucien Favre/Alain Geiger etc. Trouble was they had 'dodgy...
What, no Schar as CB?/goal scorer for Newcastle Utd vs PSG! Twas a cracker! Yes, I'm still here - But for many a year have thought the Nati has...
Hi RTA. Seems it's just you and me now! Whatever happened to SwissGCZ? Nice to see Swz have been drawn with ROI. I think the last time 'we'...
Ah yes, PJ the GK with 'feminine' features. When I saw him vs Eng many years ago I seriously thought he was female. No matter if he is/was/trans....
Pretty much as I expected. Regretably the swiss can never seem to go the extra mile/kilometer/round. I was hoping/expecting a start for Drmic and...
I've had a bet on Iran to win/qualify from the group. 20-1/7-1. Spain/Portugal are 'yesterdays news'
Hi 'All' The action is soon to start. I'm 'underwhelmed' about their prospects. They're quite capable of springing a surprise v Brazil....and...
KWYM. But let's face it; Most Swz goals are now scored by defenders (at set pieces) or midfielders. Still; a goal is a goal. The swiss are...
If the odds are 'long' enough I might have a bet on them beating Brazil. Not so sure about the rest of the group matches though. NB: I bet on Swz...
HansWorldCup: The best team the Swiss had was in the 80s when Heinz Hermann played for them. Shame said team never qualified though (the Swiss had...
I'm still here. Seems it's just RTA and me! When Swz were drawn against NI our media became excited about the prospect of NI qualifying....
Not sure where my 'In praise of TB post' went, so I'll post it again. Barnetta was a mainstay of the Nati but 'disappeared' without trace. He...
It's always been like that seit 1980 (with caveats)
It just gets better and better!
I'm still here. Delighted with the progress so far. Surprised to note Stocker back in the mix. I'd forgotten about him. Can anything possibly...
I can only agree with all the above comments. If there's a 'plus point' it's that we all agree with each other. We can't even blame the...
...And Mehmedi scores! Nice to see a goal by an offensive player rather than a defensive one. It's only thanks to Sommer that we've blundered...
Long time, no banter. So long in fact that I note your 'new' username! My last post was probably along the lines of Swz 'peaking' a few yrs ago....
I got odds of 8-1 on Turkiye winning the group. Seem a bit 'short' but they may surprise. Also: I got 66-1 on them reaching the final.
I last made a comment about Abdi three(?) years ago. Whenever he's fit he seems to do the biz at Watford. He kinda reminds me of Gygax...who when...
Interesting? Hmmm yes. I groaned when I saw the draw. You're probably familiar with me saying that I hope Swz avoid Turkey (and especially...
