Baros (and Portsmouth) v. Manchester United

The most media attracted by a Czech footballer today? Easy: That’d be Milan Baros, who is widely expected to play tomorrow night for Portsmouth at Manchester United since his transfer from Olympique Lyon was completed on Monday.

Those of y’all lucky enough to be able to see it (Here in Magyarország, some hyper-expensive cable company owns the rights to the Premiership. This writer can still see it on slightly illegal IPTV, but this grousing is utterly justified, believe me), the game kicks off at 20.00 GMT.

For quickies on this story, check out:

Baros will play because David Nugent and Benjani Mwaruwari are injured.

Harry Redknapp reckons he’s pulled off a “coup.”

Simply put, “Baros happy to be back” in the Premiership. (This one ran everywhere.)

The Agent speaks.

Meanwhile, Olympique Lyon remains atop the table

Cheers!

May 27th, 2008 | By: Yuko Méd'a Orii | Comments Comments(2)

Sorry for being a stranger – was just popping around among domestic leagues, international teams, transfer rumors, Champions League final and my personal legal b/s. Anyhow, as opposed to Mr. Brückner’s positive praise towards the Czech squad and the facilities in Bad Kleinkirchheim, personallly, I sense that this might be the worst European Championship experience ever in my life.

Czech Republic-Poland friendly “highlights”

February 7th, 2008 | By: Os Davis | Comments Comments(0)

Managed to catch Eurosport’s abbreviated version of Poland v. Czech Republic in Cyprus, for the best, perhaps, given the result.
Roll the highlight clips (such as it was, given the tepid first-half lackadaisicality you’d expect from a game played in lovely Larnaca in February)!
6th minute. A full-capacity crowd of an estimated 600 thrills to see Wojciech Lobodzinski catching the Czech defenders ... [read more]

Jose Mourinho Does "Who? Me?" Better Than Anyone

During this evening's Copa del Rey final, won by Atletico Madrid in extra time at the Bernabeu (big win, that one), Jose Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo were both sent off. The latter was unjustified, though Cristiano probably could've been sent off for kicking Juanfran off the ball earlier, and there's ...

Heineken Offers Up An Impossible Task
