And we're pulling the sh*t back on ourselves ... - Eternal Allegiance

We're doing very well up till now ... Brugge is still #1 in the competition and our chances of qualifying for the second round of the Champions League is still realistic ...

But it's starting to go wrong now ... last Thursday, two of our players Mendoza & Ristic argued with each other on training and it eventually resulted in a fight ... Ristic got suspended for 1 match and Mendoza for 3 matches (by the trainer) ...

Now Ristic being suspended for the match tonight, well that's not a big deal ... but Mendoza's three game suspension is bad ... with matches against Barcelona & Galatasaray coming up (both games at home)

We're already missing key defender Spilar, key midfielder Serebrenikov, good attacker Saeternes & deep striker Rune Lange ... all 4 injured ... now with that, you can add Mendoza (striker) to the list ... I just wonder how the hell we're gonna score now and most of it all ... who will?

I actually read an article on uefa.com about an injury to one of your players, not good, hope he recovers quickly. I didn't know about all the others though. I hope this doesn't spoil your season too badly, but every team will have a bad spell, maybe this is it.

Players fighting amongst the team is not good at all. It's a shame that the trainer had to punish them leaving them missing for your big games. Hope these 2 don't argue again.

Who are you playing tonight?

Whoever it is good luck.

We're playing Charleroi tonight, shouldn't be a prob ... I'm more worried about the upcoming CL macthes ...

Who did you read an article about?

And I hope no one ever fights again in Brugge

Charleroi should be an easy team. The CL games will be tough, but I believe you can get the points you desire to qualify.

I think the article was about Serebrenikov. It's on the uefa site in the CL section somewhere.

Well we simply NEED a point against Barça and 3 points against Galatasaray

Well seeing as Barcelona is the fifth game you play then they might have already qualified and won't need the win. A point is likely if that's the situation.

Actually no

Louis Van Gaal is the type of arrogant player, he doesn't care if they have to win or not, he'll still try to win and put his best players on the pitch ... which could backfire him then later in combination with the Spanish competition

Too bad to hear that all. Sometimes these things happen and then you still have to try to make it. But it does come at a bad time. Hopefully everything will work out fine for Brugge.

Just checked teletext, Charleroi - Brugge (1-0)

Not the final result though.

I got the final result for you: 2-3, we won

Not with ease, cause we played bad ... but we did what we had to, take the 3 points ... next is Galatasaray

"Shouldn't be a prob"....right

Anyway, good to hear Brugge still won. Indeed, next is Galatasary. Again 3 nice weeks CL football.
