the players are mad at the direction team of real madrid
(valdano, florentino perez...) cos they think they only care
about money and cups but not about the players as people...
(there were problems with guti when he knew beckham had been
bought... and the same happened this summer with solari and
morientes when ronaldo was bought)

so the players after ending the match and knowing they were
the champions decided to celebrate only a few minutes in the
field (not all the long that it was necessary for
journalists to make some interviews and for the public to
celebrate)
and then immediately they left to the dress rooms... there
valdano went and told them to go back to the field... ans
hierro as the captain said that they wouldnt and that if
they wanted they wouldnt even celebrate next day (its a
tradition to offer the cup in the main political buildings
of the town)

at the end they didnt go back to the field... but next day
all the official celebrations took place as usual... anyway
that same day hierro and del bosque were not renewed
contracts

direction team didnt like del bosque to be so friendly with
players... so much that players ended up in revolt

huh, thanks for the insight...
i had no idea what was going on, madrid players always seem
like very good friends on the field - but it is normal that
players like solari, mcmanaman, morientes and now guti are
not happy sitting on a bench...
this was a really bad move from the managment of madrid...i
mean if the players liked del bosque, surely that will
affect them in some way
this really is a sad news...

yeah, i heard about that yesterday as well...do you think he
can improve their game?
he was a brilliant player, dont know how is he as a
manager...wasnt he a holland selector when they failed to
qualify for the world championship?

anyway, i hope they improve their game, to see some real
rivalry between madrid and barcelona again!

no he wasn't, that was van Gaal, their previous coach ;)
Actually, Rijkaard led Holland to the semi's of the 2000
european championship, of course they should have won it,
but also of course it had to come to penalties, and then
everybody knows who's gonna lose :P

i didn't understand why barça changed Antic, he did well
this year, isn't it? barça should say thanks to Antic for
UEFA competition.

I dont understand that either... I liked him a lot... I
still remember that 3-0 against Inter

I am not liking the new management team so far:

they said they wanted beckham (look where he is now)
they wanted koeman for coach... he didnt come
then they went for hiddink... neither

...

i could be wrong but it seems JLP is putting barcelonas name
to every quality player in the world just to justify his
appoinment and not to seem like he used david beckham to get
himself there in the first place
eg henry, ayala
hell probley bid for zidane next

that's better for mendieta as he totally doesn't fit in the
system that Barca uses.
I didn't understand why Antic had to go either. Seems to me
that he did an incredible job of reaching the UEFA cup spot,
if you look at the position they had when van Gaal got fired
again. Now they're taking a gamble by putting a fairly
unexperienced coach in the hotseat.
He did a great job in EURO2000 for Holland, but never
produced with the shitsquad Sparta he signed for next.
And to me the Spanish Competition isthe toughest league in
the world, with so many competitors for the nr1 spot.

quick note for bill_

you're joke is sharp and topical ,

but your target is hopelessly wide of the mark .

If you're gonna be regarded as funny , at least go for
someone who deserves it . Marc was a really lovely guy who
came from poverty to give his family a better life . You
don't appear to give a stuff about human values . Thats
where yourself and the REAL Bill Hicks differ , and its a
gaping difference . He chose his targets from his heart ;
You need a conscience with your humour or people will think
you're a wanker .

From the footy board I post on....

"Apparently MVF was quite close friends with one of the City
academy kids named something Jordan. One day they were
having lunch in the canteen, and MVF mentioned that he'd
just bought a brand-new top-end Benz. The kid was asking all
sorts of questions about it, so MVF offered to swap cars for
a week to let the kid drive around in it for a while. The
kid didn't think he was serious, so they went to the car
park and the kid showed MVF his car - a beat-up old Renault
Clio and waited for him to rescind the offer. Instead, MVF
just gave him the keys to his Benz and asked for his."

shit, cocu will stay at barca, well good news for barca fans
anyway, terrific player. But I was kinda hoping he'd go to
PSV. :\
Shame on rapist/murderer Kluivert though, on complaining
about a wage cut.
"fuck that, I ain't settling for $3.5 million a year! I want
my $7.62 mill!" bah, the git.

Juve bought Brasilian defensor Lucio from Bayern Leverkusen
but he will play in Italy in theason 2004/2005

Juve bought also Appiah, a good midfield from Ghana
(Africa).

dude wingers are dead since defenders started playing
football instead of kicking players as they run by or when a
cross goes in defenders are over 6'2 mainly which means they
head most crosses away
