Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

[Kunty McPhuck]

we don't like to mention it much, but Celtic won the European Cup in 1967 and were the first club from the British Isles (also first from northern Europe) to do so


done it with local lads playing all out attacking football too, none of yer mercenaries parking the bus or boring tiki taka shyte

Yea yea and Spurs 1st British team to win a European competition

And England the only country in the British Isles to win a World Cup. Celtic piggybacked of Englands success in 66

only winning the World Cup when it's hosted in your own country

even perennial international mugs France won their home tourney. Sweden (!) reached the final in their home country and that was decades before Henrik the GOAT ever graced their shirt. Not that impressive really is it.

Scotland havent even ever got out of the group stages in a world cup.

Sweatys should just stick to drinkin Scotch, producin managers that dont want anything to do with their own league and national team, takin heroin and golfin

Then the next year it's completely outshone by United


Let's face it anyway, if not for some ice on a runway United would have been the first, and we'd be sitting with at least 2/3 more CL trophies in our cabinet

Try itv iplayer if its avaliable in your country.

 

[Gilver]

Watching the highlights on ITV player. Red Clive gets a lot of stick, but he's got a voice for the big moments.


Speaking of which, i need to hear Tylers commentary in the big moments, was he epic as usual?

 

[mastermind]

Neville ejaculated for Drogba's goal


When Tyler hit that Drogba scream tho

 

[Gilver]

Luiz running past the crowd after his pen was good.

He seems like a player you'd love to have at your club for his personality.

Bit like their Evra.

 

[Gilver]

Oh that's a poor trophy lifting, no thrust in that. Tsk tsk.

 

[Gilver]

In fact i'm going to watch on sky player now for Tylers commentary alone.
