AjanleKoko: Guys, Let's keep supporting Villa and all our boys. They gave us a great season, great goals, famous wins in all competitions, whatever happens in the Champions League. Messi, Villa, Pedro . . . everybody. Even Pinto, Affelay, Adriano, Masch . . . they all came through when it really mattered.
Let's forget the Cup defeat. We are winning the league. Let's even forget the Champions League. If I was Pep right now, i would do like all those movie basketball/American football coaches, and tell the boys to go out and be themselves, tonight, on Wednesday, and any other night. No matter what happens, we're still Barca, and we continue challenging next season.
We passed tough tests in all competitions. Arsenal in the UCL, Bilbao in the CDR, Madrid, Valencia, Villareal, Espanyol, Sevilla, and Athletico Madrid in the league. We have been severally complimented, even by our enemies. They're all parking the bus, scared to come out and play against Barca. Imagine Arsenal: Playing with 11 men against Barca is tough enough. How cool is that?
One thing I noticed from this Cup defeat . . . so many footie fans around the world have been desperate to see us lose. Too bad for them. Whatever Real does in the CL semis will never wipe away the stain of 5 back to back clasico defeats, including the famous manita. They can never beat us 5-0, not any time soon, anyway. To eke out a lousy cup win, they have to turn footie to American footie. Good for them. Even their talisman has thumbed them down as a sorry side.
Our Mephisto, Mou, also can't come away from this season intact. He suffered his heaviest defeat at our hands, he's not winning the league this season, a first for him since Porto, and he has to play extremely negative football to get a trophy, any trophy, for the great Real Madrid. He even lost his impeccable home record, a record we all respect, at the hands of a lowly team.
We are BARCA.
When they have beat you 11-1 and 8-2 you are talking of they can never beat you 5-0. Before you do anything to Madrid they've done to you. And you have already started feeling it that it is over for you in champions league. As for loosing to Gijon that you call a lowly team, Everyone knows that they are not as lowly as Hercules that came from segunda division and are on their way back, so what are you saying?
ddippset: it is very easy to play football by sitting back in your own half , waiting only for your opponent's mistake without using your own initiative. that's what the 'special fool' does to us always. i suggest that next time we do the same, so that the ball remains at the centre circle and no one touches it. then i will see the football those madrid and mourinho fans will pay their stadium gate fees and the dstv subscription to watch. spend multi millions and you dont got the balls to attack.
You think so, let me remind you of the words of Pep himself
"This Madrid is better than the one we played before. They start as favourites"
"The Madrid players shoot more, jump higher and are quicker and stronger than ours,”
“I have never seen a team that plays in space like theirs - in three touches they have already reached the goal. We need to move the ball from [goalkeeper] Victor Valdes to create a chance, they need three seconds.”
and on Ozil he said "We knew what he could do, besides playing well he breaks [between] the lines, he gets on the back of the full backs and it has pleasantly surprised me how he is coping physically.”
Messi is the difference between a good player and a genius! [quote][/quote]And then he face REAL MADRID when winning is important and all the players on the other side played better than him.
Ify27: In 2010, an official in one of the commercial banks claimed she lost an undisclosed amount in foreign currency between Lagos and Abuja, which she said she checked in on an Arik flight.
spade: Apparently, you're in another planet - probably the Viking planet; because, first of all, Toy Story IS the movie to beat at the Animation category, and that's what critics believe too (read reputable blogs to broaden your view on this subject and confirm my point). Toy Story is the best-reviewed movie of 2010 with a 99 percent rating on rottentomatoes.com, as opposed to How To Train Your Dragon's 98. It is also the highest selling film of 2010, as well as the highest grossing animated movie ever made, with a superb haul of roughly 1.07 billion dollars. Critics like Roger Ebert have long tipped this movie to be a valid contender for the Best Picture title. So, for you to even think of How To Train Your Dragon as anything remotely similar to a shoe-in is just totally laughable.
Oh, and, umm, by the way, I think Mobinga was actually talking about its presence in the Best Picture category.
You can also add that "TOY STORY" is the 5th highest grossing movie of all time.
BizBooks: At $8950, the red one is a bit cheap. The best I can do is $9200. But the Silver one does not count since it is Manual transmission. It is a well known fact that manual transmissions are much cheaper than automatic.
OK Sir,but the point is Auction is suppose to be much cheaper than free market. There are many comparisons of significance I have seen.
This 2 vehicles are 2009 model Corolla and have 45,000 miles and 57,409 miles but are both under $9,000. The green Corolla 2009 model with 63,718 miles is $10,150. So I think you should take note.
Maxidoe: Absolutely brilliant, chop Knuckle jo, when insults are thrown up and down i hate to respond to a topic, but your post here just made it impossible for me not to respond. An award was given by a group yet peeps come in here and insult all Arsenal fans senselessly as if it was Arsenal fans that gave him the award, and they think is wrong for you to say congratulations to a Coach who is in charge of the team you support, most of them ranting,the moment their team dont win trophies they abandon and join another, a particular team has its supporters from mainly two teams after a rich man took over the club and very soon they would live in drones, thats not what been a fan is all about, Leeds united have been relegated for almost ten years or more, yet they have fans, West Ham may have not won anything in more than 20 yrs but upton park is always filled up each time they have a match, true fans you know. We have not won anything in the last five years, we dont like it, we would really love to win everything, if we dont is that a reason to stop supporting the club or be ashamed of the club? heeeeeeeeelllllll NO, in good and bad times we remain GUNNERS even if we are relegated we will still support and make noise about ARSENAl, your insults, taunts has never and will never affect us great and real fans respect each other, they may hate, dislike, and fight each other, but they respect each other and remember respect is reciprocal.
It's like you lost it friend, the issue is not that you should not support your club. You have the right to support your club, but don't just follow embarrassment and say it is the best. People are arguing about Wenger not being coach of the decade. And you should have read my post above to understand that the organization that came up with the award is a one man show. Also tell your friend that you responded to his post to go and check how Mourinho started with Porto, that is how you know a coach is good.
In a wide range of media there is massive doubt about the significance of IFFHS rankings and elections. German news agency Deutsche Presse-Agentur abstains from publishing news relating to the IFFHS. Karl Lennartz, a sports historian from Cologne, Germany, calls the organization "obscure", describing it as a one man show of its chairman Alfredo Pöge
amazonia: The matter of there is , or there isn't al qaeda is academic debate. The facts are there are radical Islamic terrorists with the blood of innocent Nigerians on their hand. If you like call them what you like. They are murderers that need to be brought out to face their due justice.
So if you are saying this now, why will you see my fault when I did not believe Alqaeda's link with the bombing which majority of Nigerians will not doubt if they say it is politically motivated but instead they are telling us of Al qaeda.
If you have problem with the US, take it to them. I don't know while you all find it worthwhile to Blow your brothers and sisters into pieces because of your pecieved slight of your religion by the USA. Violence never solve problem. Violence is evidence of weakness, no matter who exhibit it.
If only you have watched the video before you comment. I did not make the video but BBC does and you know if there is number one US ally it's the British. They showed evidence that the Al qaeda does not exist as the US claimed. They did not say Osama did not exist or is not anti US. So if this so called Al qaeda does not even exist, how can they come and tell us that the bombings in Abuja and Bayelsa are connected to Alqaeda? Or is it because US said then we must believe. I'm not the first person doubting what they said and will not be the last. As you said violence never solve anything and I agree with you.
"The truth is, there is no Islamic army or terrorist group called Al Qaida. And any informed intelligence officer knows this. But there is a propaganda campaign to make the public believe in the presence of an identified entity representing the 'devil' only in order to drive the TV watcher to accept a unified international leadership for a war against terrorism. The country behind this propaganda is the US . . ."

bolee: Well I confess that I reside and work in Lagos, hence my skewed vision. And i read the papers thank you, even at that how many Northern women are there, compared to their counterparts from other regions.
I actually meant young emphasis on young, upwardly mobile women in corporate environments like oil companies, banks, FMCGs, Multinationals and not Government parastatals where its quota system or PDP rationing is used.
Northern babes in companies like Guinness, Cocacola, BAT, PZ, Shell, GTB, BG, NBL, , where art thou!
Then you should know that Lagos is not Nigeria but just a part and therefore should not base everything on Lagos.
