I vowed I would never followup again to these postings but.......
Looks like we've got a Scottish  version of DENISE  here but thankfully
the language is cleaner.  To the posting.  I suppose it wasnt the
aspect of their play which got 100 league goals last season, a league
championship, a Scottish Cup thrown in, 18 wins in a row this season,
the Skol Cup and into the later stages of the European Cup.  It's also
professionalism which has achieved these victories something which 
Graeme Souness instilled in the side and perhaps something Liam Brady
should be doing.

Wasn't McStay the big saviour this summer when he re-signed and win all
the trophies ?  :-)  As for Nicholas, wouldn't you reckon you've seen his
best form and only occassionally will he now display it.  It's getting a bit
cold for him anyway !


To matters more serious : I hear that there was a UFO sighting over Cambuslang
last night. To be more specific, it was "a pie in the sky".  Can anyone
supply more facts ?  (Facts, not lies or models or artists impressions or

Organization: Computer Science Dep. - Milan University

Juventus won yesterday afternoon the first derby match of the season
against a bad Toro . For the whole first half of the match Juve has 
leaded the match with many opportunities to score ,  but the luck
hasn't been good for the black&white players , and other times Marchegiani
' Toro's keeper , made miracles .
In the second half Toro played better than before and after 25 mins played 
at a good rithm and after a bad error of Dino Baggio , Juve defender , Toro
scored with Sordo . Then Juve woke up and its players started , as in the
first half , to play as they know , so after 10 mins more , on an assist of
Casiraghi , Vialli ran in the area ,dribbled also Marchegiani , and put the 
ball in goal . After the goal Juventus kept on insisting with its actions
so at 92 , on a corner , Moeller shot the ball from the limit of the area,
Toro's keeper was in good position to catch the ball , but Venturin , Toro's
defender deviated the ball , surprised his own goalkeeper , and made happy
a lot of good old Juventus fans (I'M ONE OF THEM) !!!!! :)

	The yahoo comments refered specifically to spread of rumors that

the people in charge, as well as FIFA themselves. It would help if you had

Well, that's not the reason. The point is that Berlusconi has acquired the
right to broadcast *all* the matches of the Champions' Cup semifinal groups,
including those played in Milan. Therefore the Milan-Goeteborg game (and all
the other games in said groups) will not be broadcasted by RAI, but by
Berlusconi's networks.
BTW, the Roma-Galatasaray match should start at 18:45, that is 12:45 pm

Nope - can't even claim that I'm afraid :-) - USSR took Cameroon apart in
their final group game beating them 4-0. Hard to judge how hard Cameroon were
trying as they had already qualified but the Soviets looked real good on that

Well, the experiment made in the Stuttgart-Inter friendly (played in
Monza last Wednesday) was not so dramatic. I wouldn't speak of "three
referees": actually, the experiment consisted in allowing the linesmen
to go up and down the whole sideline (instead of just half of it) and
to enter the field (for 5-6 meters at most) when play is on the opposite
side. According to the promoters, this way linesmen could be closer to
play in many situations and thus they could give the referee more help.
But the decision power would still be of the referee alone.

Has anybody ever watched games on Univision (nee SIN)?  They carry the
entire match, whistle to whistle WITH commercials by using brief (<10 sec)
cartoon scrolls across the bottom of the screen at various intervals.

Anyway, if advertisers want to get their message on the air, why don't 
they buy space on the sign boards that encircle the field.  Then their
name is on the screen whenever the ball is in the vicinity, which could
be 20 - 30 minutes per match!

Streuth we're NOT into this again, debating which of fifty or so
average shite munsters should represent the mass who shout
"Inger - land" "Inger - land".

I have to seriously doubt the credibility of a team that includes such
dubious characters as "Adams" and "Batty" if these players are your
idea of International Class I'm surprised you didn't make Trevor
Hurlock captain, and Vinny Jones midfeild maestro.

I've made this point before but if you're playing  a game of 500
(cards) you need more than the Joker (Gascoigne) and the Ace of
Blackburn (Shearer) or the King Of Nottingham (Pearce), if the rest of
your hand is weak in off-suit you haven't got a chance, no matter how
much you shuffle the pack it still comes out the same strength.
