    I think Messi passed up the goal as it would have been his 300th La Liga goal and he wouldn't have wanted it to be a penalty. Plus the fact Suarez was on a hattrick.

    Something to do with Cruyff, some sources mentioned that anyway.

    Cruyff was the first to do what Messi did. Pires and Henry tried it and failed.

    I meant his battle with cancer and some sources say it was tribute to Johan Cruyff.

    Yeah but like Lemlin said Cruyff and Olsen did it with Ajax back in '82. And yes, some sources suggest they did it to pay him tribute and give him support in his battle with cancer.

    Considering many here are fans of the Finn Harps Fantasy Competitions and even a few latent sympathisers who invested somewhat in our fairytale last season, I'll take the liberty of posting this link.

    Great prizes. A car for a tenner! Help us keep the miracle going. :)

    Thanks.

    Anyone else as happy as me to see McGregor beaten? The sight of Diaz raining punches down on him was a joy to behold.

    Hopefully now the bandwagon will be parked up for a long while.

    I didn't shed a tear. Don't mind the man himself, smart lad that has built a persona and made millions out of it. Some of his fans though, I've no (good) words.

    I never like to see an Irishman beaten at any sport. I'd hope he bounces back. Fair play to him, he'll fight anyone it seems and he's making millions.

    Currently teaching the wife to drive. It's more nerve wracking than doing the test myself!

    It's between 4 and 6 on a Sunday afternoon between August and May,
    The cricket is on Sky, if you have Sky Sports 2 you also have Sky Sports 1.

    You can take it for granted that there's not many here glued to the cricket:pac:

    Do people only one screen these days? I think it can be taken for that they don't!

    There probably isn't many but there are maybe some which is really the target audience. I'm surely not the only one from FSA here watching it all!

    I don't understand cricket at all when I'm watching it so I can't really offer an opinion. But it doesn't look the most entertaining in any case :P
