I expect twice as much fireworks tomorrow during the actual game, both on and off the pitch.


This game was a bit disappointing by the way. Not that it was bad, but it didn't have the fighting and do-or-die atmosphere I was hoping for. All in all it was nowhere near as explosive or controversial as previous editions of the Dutch "Klassieker". What it did have: lame hooligans (if you're gonna throw a can of Red Bull at an Ajax player, make sure not to hit anyone from the home team instead), a lame red card... but at least there was one very fine goal.

Yeah, excellent goal and I love it when Pelle throws the chair over while celebrating. Disappointing to hear that the atmosphere was more toned down than usual, though. Ajax Feyenoord has always been one of the games I'd most like to go and see and I'd hate to think it's slowly becoming just another fixture. Is it true that away fans are banned from those matches?

Went to bed thinking that Arsenal had fluffed up and lost against Reading..only to read they came BACK AND WON 5-7! Madness.

demonrail666 10.31.2012 08:37 AM

Yeah, crazy result! I'm not sure if Wenger should be pleased they came back from 4 goals down or depressed that they had to, against a team like Reading. Although so long as teams treat that cup so lightly, by fielding semi-strength teams, I suppose results/situations like that are always possible.

oh what is this credit-card themed cup? i heard about it the other day after the man u/chelsea game. anything anyone should care about? or just a sideshow? (i'm guessing sideshow)

demonrail666 10.31.2012 01:48 PM

Very much a sideshow. The bigger teams see it as a distraction and invariably field a lot of their reserves. Even the FA Cup (England's equiv to the Superbowl) is being overlooked by teams more focused on winning the Prem and the Champions' League.

And what about our (allegedly) racist referees?
