Subtle jealousy with undertones of resentment. :p

Great news irv! Really happy for you. Make sure you spread that PTC goodness.

One second? OMG One second. Football is decided on milliseconds. For someone of rvp's quality he should be able to tell his foot not to kick the ball within one second. If a footballer can't decide within a second not to shoot the ball that is in his possession then he is pretty shit. And no...

It wasn't harsh. If a fcb player got a yellow for shooting the ball after the whistle had blown when it was obvious that they were in time-wasting mode then I couldn't complain. RVP knew the whistle went. He is a trained footballer. There are 95,000 people but a whistle is loud. You can't ever...

Abidal really wasn't the problem tonight. Pique seems to be mentally Even though Abidal filled in well defensively, we lacked that hunger at the back that Puyol brings.

Whoah irv, nice one!

Manyh reliable places....but all will be hard to actually get tickets from due to demand. Tickets go on sale to members first, and then are released to the public. You have to be mightily quick to have a chance of getting a ticket. It's more than possible, but make sure you don't dither. If...

Buy a T-10 at the station, as that gives you 10 journies anywhere. For the game go to Les Corts or Maria Cristina station. If you go to either of those two you'll have no problem finding the stadium as long as you follow the crowds, or, if it's early, say "estadio?" to someone and they'll point...

It's a shame he doesn't have his brother's physical presence. Gio was a player with a lot of potential who got completely screwed by inheriting his father's attitude through being managed by him. He wouldn't be a starter for fcb, but he could either have been be a very useful squad player, or a...

Indeed. He is a weapon in many aspects. He isn't just there as a crosser.

He isn't the best crosser, but he scares defenders and he pulls players away from Messi. Teams can't mark Messi and let Alves run free because all he needs is one or two good balls and we'll be a few goals up. Alves may be replaceable, but it doesn't mean he isn't important to our style...

Nope. Out of interest, if you started supporting fcb in 2007 when Ronaldinho was on the down, what was it exactly that appealed to you? I could understand if it was Ronaldinho in his heyday, but in 2007 is surprising. Just curious!

Where are you coming from? I imagine getting a coach from the States, for example, would be a bit more expensive than plane.

By the way Alves isn't going.

Puyol covered RB in 2009 and did well, true. But how much longer can he continue to cover that side?

I haven't sat on the first tier before so I really don't know much about it but I guess 106 looks ok. I know it can be a problem for second tier, but make sure that the overhang from the tier above doesn't block your view i.e. don't get seats too far back.

I voted 16+ but it may actually be 12-15 on second consideration.

Paulo Coelho's comment is great. Thanks Ryan.

Most painful memory was watching the decline of Ronaldinho.

No I never really use msn. But it's one of those things. I still read PM's on here! We'll do a game sometime later in the season.
