Chin up, Galatasaray! You have better players, it's just that for now you don't have a team yet. This comes with time, and I hope Skibbe is the right man for you (although didn't look like it, IMHO). Results come and go, as they always did, but the fighting spirit is something no one can take away f...

Less than six hours to the game... can't wait to get there!

Enjoy the atmosphere, guys. Enjoy the game. I'm pretty sure you won't enjoy the score.

Oh, yeah, sure, Steaua is the devil, the care-nothing-but-the result sons of bitches. Ok, now, you're getting towards the attitude I expected. :) And, let me guess... the Turks did not care about the result, they just wanted good football, right? Yeah, yeah, I'm sure about that. Match by match: The ...

Ok, now you're getting too much head over heels. My historical references were dued rather to some other personal interests outside football than the actual game between our teams. Perhaps their place would be on a message board with a history focus. Sorry it didn't come out right. Although... seein...

The higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment. Optimism is good, but is it worth it?

Guys, I got to like this message board a lot and it was a hugely pleasant surprise for me to see the friendly tone here (unlike, for instance, what I got with Betis fans 2 years ago). This makes it all the more difficult for me to break the terrible news to you. It has to be direct and it definetly ...

I remember something called "mamalika" (not sure how to spell) - that stuff was nasty... It's "mamaliga", which is basically boiled corn flour, served hot. It is pretty good if served right, but it was indeed, 'til about 50 years ago, the typical food for poeasants and poor peop...

I have a lot friends from Costanza. Mostly Farul and Steaua fans. And I wathced mosth of the games. They were really bothered by Becali buying out the referies and other teams. Even tough they were die hard fans of Steaua, they did not want Cluj to loose, just because of Becali. I tought that was v...

I posted the italicized text before the game against 1860 Munich and forgot to update it last night, so it was just after the Hoffenheim match.

So, you think Arda will be fit to play against us? I'd rather hope not. :)

This is another try. Last part of the first missed post: Our Latino players... First of all, we the the goalkeeper, Zapata. He's Columbia's national goalie and a certain value. He was named best keeper & best acquisition in Romania by the most popular sports newspaper here. Then we have Dayro Mo...

Ok, thanks for the info. My last (long) post returned some errors. I figured it was too long and tried to put it in chapters. I posted the first part, but then failed to put the second. I kept trying to paste it the last days, but it always returned a strange error message. SQL works in mysterious w...

1/2

One at a time... I think it is quite unlikely that Radoi leaves for Inter, the Italians are hunting for a bargain and at 12 million euros (plus tax), that's not quite it. Is he worth it? Well, if Pepe (Real Madrid) is worth 30 M, might well be. Frankly, I have no idea. Transfer deals are sometimes t...

Your're only judging by figures, Murat, and, accurate as they may be, they do not contextualize the things and the performances. First of all, though I'm a bit subjective on the matter, I have to say that Steaua is the only Romanian club team to be taken seriously in Europe for the past 25 years. Wi...

Hey guys, thanks for the warm welcome! I expected a string of curses and swearings to be honest... :) Actually, Leo is short for Leonard, a name of Germanic origin meaning, obviously, "lion heart". My dad says he thought of da Vinci and Ray Sugar Leonard, a famous boxer 30 years ago. But t...
