T.D. Posted February 9, 2009 Report Posted February 9, 2009 Not too big a surprise, but what I'd really like to see is a detailed report of Abramovich's finances. He must have lost a whole lot of money recently. Quote

Jazzmoose Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 How about a short clue-in to the thread for those of us who are clueless? Who? What? Quote

Christiern Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 Thanks, Moose, for requesting enlightenment. I thought this was something important, and I guess it is to some people. Quote
J.A.W. Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) How about a short clue-in to the thread for those of us who are clueless? Who? What? It's all about football - or soccer, as it's known on your shores. Scolari was manager of one of England's top teams, Chelsea, and was dismissed for lack of results and good football - eh, soccer. He won the World Cup with Brazil in 2002. Football/soccer is the national pastime of many European and Latin American countries Edited February 10, 2009 by J.A.W. Quote
sal Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 Lots of speculation going around regarding who will replace him. Guus Hiddink, Frank Rijkaard, the return of Avram Grant. I think I read somewhere about Carlos Ancolotti moving in from Milan and Rijkaard replacing him over there. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Ah. Thanks. I must admit, I've gotten so far away from sports over the last fifteen years, I couldn't name a manager or a coach in any sport at this point. Well, I'd gamble and say Sutter in the NHL; that's usually a safe bet... Quote
Cliff Englewood Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I do feel sorry for him, but at the same time, he is getting around £7.5 million for basically getting fired. Still it might just help Liverpool win the league this season, so I should be happy, I think he will be. Luiz Felipe Scolari sacked as Chelsea manager after meeting with Roman Abramovich Quote
B. Goren. Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Posted February 11, 2009 Still it might just help Liverpool win the league this season, so I should be happy, I think he will be. I'm afraid this is not their season either. Quote

I'm afraid this is not their season either. I wouldn't be so sure this early in the season, although unless Liverpool beat United at Old Trafford, it is probably United's to lose after that. Quote

I'm afraid this is not their season either. I wouldn't be so sure this early in the season, although unless Liverpool beat United at Old Trafford, it is probably United's to lose after that. Thought I'd dig this one back up for the football fans now that the league is very interesting again. BTW B. Goren, Yossi is my hero after today's result at Fulham. Quote
