Yup that's the one. And I thought it was 2nd yellow and an unfair send-off but couldn't recall precisely. Haven't rewatched that game in probably 20 years! And then someone like Pires had to be sacrificed when we went down to 10?
Aha. I remembered the incident and injustice, but forgot which exact game it was. Thanks for clearing that up.
They just said Pep is leaving the Shitty project in the summer. No big surprise. But if it's public knowledge, especially within the playing staff, it might just motivate them just a little bit more. So WIN TONIGHT is imperative. p.s. Don't let the door hit you on the way out Mr. Guardiola.
Need to run up the score in the second half for goal difference. Realistically, need three goals in the second half for goal difference to even possibly be in our favor.
That was away to Barcelona after the Arrsshhhaaaviiiiiiinnnnnnnn! goal. We had a real shot and got UEFAd
Been rumors for several weeks that they were negotiating with Maresca. Curious if he is leaving because of (a) the 115 or (b) doesn't want any part of a rebuild. Don't see any other openings for him right now. Curious if we might see any other players looking to leave now that Pep is leaving.
Probably all of the above, plus (c) burnout, and last but not least (d) wanting to spend more time with his new main squeeze.
Yeah that was stupid. I was just relieved he was just embellishing an injustice rather than a real injury. Edit: just after writing that he got a proper stomping on his foot. Now that coulda really hurt. But up he hops. As we need.
