Pre Match THIS is all but sorted, isn’t it? The amount of spares knocking about you would think these aren’t bothering sending a team tonight and are putting out 10 bottles of Superbock with a piri-piri chicken in goal. Let me take you back, circa 2003, to a...
IS it just me or do you feel like we might just have slightly cheated ourselves out of a proper Champions League night out? Doing Porto 5-0 in the first leg was the best and all that but we could have kept it to two or three. We’d still have been supremely confident...
