    Jose Holebas could be Agamemnon, leader of the Greek forces - and recent events suggest that Miguel Britos would make a fine Abhorson, the executioner.

    Perhaps his exchange with Pompey will happen in the next 24 hours or so...

    Currently watching the Queensland National Premier League final between Western Pride and Moreton Bay Utd - Western Pride have a forward by the name of Endean.

    I wonder....

    Looking at the ages, young Adam would likely be a grandson of our Barry if they are directly related.

    Watching the France v Luxembourg game - currently 0-0 - I can't help but think that France need a Luther Blissett...<laugh>

    A mighty effort by Luxembourg there to draw 0-0. They could even have nicked it towards the end when they hit the post...

    And to think France beat the Dutch 4-0 only last Friday.

    Just shows how football can change.

    People will bring out the "no easy games in International football" cliché now.

    Depressing draw. They only have 37,000 players in the whole country. Last time we failed to beat them was 1914.

    I don't think the French press were impressed.

    Did the manager play a "weaken" side (not that there should be such a thing!)

    Their midfield probably cost more than the State of Luxembourg - Pogba, M'bappe etc...

    Sounds like the Luxembourg team work harder than their counterparts in the finance industry - I don't think it's fair f I start on a work-related rant on here.

    Have just finished watching the Iran vs Syria WC qualifier - a great effort by Syria to draw 2-2. That means they qualify for the play-off round, which could see them in an 'interesting' encounter. If Saudi Arabia fail to beat Japan this evening, Syria get the chance to 'bomb' them out of the World Cup...

    Bugger, Saudis beat Japan 1-0, meaning Syria play Australia in the play-off.
    Not overly confident... :(
