Well, Saturday night was fun. After a first half where FCZ dominated play ( 8 corners to 0, and double the shots on target ), the second half started with a goal for FCZ. Hurra! Luzern then started playing, and scored 2 goals, the second of which ( on 73. min ) was a penalty, after a defender...

Everyone misses the Migros. FACT!

Why thank you, kind Sir. Well, it's my first day here, so should be on my best behaviour, and we Swiss are fairly polite usually, which I hope Capt. Sensible will verify. Also I bloody hate Crystal Palace ( their shirts remind me of FC Basel, amongst other things, ultras, etc. ) so there...

Indeed! The Super League is a lot slower than the Championship, and not so rough and tumble, so hopefully there is that positive aspect to work on. And of course we have to invest, but Basel ( and Gigi Oeri + the Champions League money ) are miles ahead at the moment, with no real hope...

Exciting will do for me short-term, and as it looks like he's probably here long-term, I will hope that he can sort the rest out, given time ( and money ).

Sali – d Sunne schiint für ali, au für Hoppers! ;-) Yes, the danger that he failed at Leverkusen and then at Brighton is one that is worrying me. Three strikes and you're out! I'm guessing the pressure will be pretty high now for him personally, as he knows that another failure will be...

Well, the pressure is pretty high, actually. Biggest city in Switzerland, FIFA HQ here, so some football interest, and of course all the money, so expectations are quite big. Plus we have a rival in Grasshopper Club who we have to stay ahead of, and then there is the monster that is FC Basel...

OMG! We ( imho ) don't have a good assistant manager, and one of the criteria of Sami coming was that he had to come alone, and have to work with our training staff. Also every team here in Switzerland has a sport chef, ( Director of Football, something like that ), but our Owner won't have...

Yes, but that's the same scenario as with us at the moment. Our Chairman and Owner controls the Club, has stated that there'll be no new transfers this summer, and we have a revolving-door policy as regards managers. We're doomed!

Good Morning everyone. I was that soldier! TBH it has traumatized me, and I even had a dream ( nightmare ) last night about Hyypia deciding to play with 9 outfield players, only 2 of which were allowed to defend. There were a couple of more positive posters, symyjym being one of them...
