No way! Lets put money on this thing! Rangers will hold there own at Ibrox but will lose it all when they play in Northern Germany.

JBN- You in or what? Come on now. If you fancy an upset put your money where your mouth is.

Anderlecht - Bayern
Marseille - Zenit
Fiorentina - Everton
Leverkusen - Hamburg
Tottenham - PSV
Benfica - Getafe
Rangers - Bremen
Bolton - Sporting

 

[johnnybluenose]

Bayern over Anderlecht
Marseilles over Zenit St Petes
Everton over Fiorentina
Hamburg and Van Der Vaart (magic) over Leverkusen
Tottenham and Alan Cafu Hutton over PSV
Benfica over Getafe
Rangers over Bremen
Bolton over Sporting

 

[Captain Shamrock]

Come on the Werder........

Bolton over Sporting? That's almost as crazy as Rangers over Bremen.

Bolton beat Athletico.

Athletico > Sporting.

Nuff said.

 

[johnnybluenose]

what he said ^^^^^

 

[Wolfgang]

How many are there left in the Champions League?

Most likely the same amount as the Italians!

​

o.k. 30 min to kickoff. I do not expect much from bayern today. They play in 44 hours from now in the Bundesliga and they have stated that this is their #1 priority. This being the reason they are sitting 4 regulars for this match. I exoect the much the same as the result against Aberdeen. The Bayern will go for it all at home.

Good luck Gers! To be honest I'm hoping fro the draw there.

 

[johnnybluenose]

Rangers need a win today...going goalless draw at home and trying for an away goal draw away is risky business, Werder Bermen is no Panathinaikos.

Even with the 4 regs out for Bayern, Anderlecht shouldn't be able to hold a candle to that side.

 

[Wolfgang]

I would normally cheer for the German side but since my buddy's team is playing them I'll play this one quiet

 

[johnnybluenose]

Prediction then?
My heart says Rangers 2- Bremen 1
My heid says Rangers 1- Bremen 1

 

[Wolfgang]

ok. I just saw the lineups and wow Bayern are sitting more than I thought. Look at the squad you could dress with these not playing.

Ze roberto
Klose
Ribery
Kahn
Janssen
Lucio
Van Bommell

 

[Wolfgang]

Ok I was wrong! We thrashed them 5 nil!

Rangers are up 2 nil at the moment. I'm surprised to be honest!

Bolton up 1 nil at the moment as well.

Sorry but neither of your teams scare me. Hoping for a Bayern and Rangers tie

 

[steve1234]

Don't be sorry, It's a sign of weakness. It's bad enough your German.

 

[Rangerforever]

Oh Yeah Baby.

I like it going back to Germany with no away goals for Bremen and up 2-0.



Who said the Huns are ugly?
Check out those nuggets Captain.
Yowsa.

Cheerleaders....

 

[Rene]

That's Okay boys as Hamburg SV is going to take this tourney!!

 

[johnnybluenose]

Oh-O-Ohh Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy NaNaNaNa Na Naaaaa...

Bremen are lucky TBH...

Naldo should have been sent off after burying his knee in Bazza's kidney or lower back...

McCullough Bottled the 3-0 Opportunity
And if Smithy grew a pair of testicles and played a winger or two on the day with the shocking defending and keeping put on display by a very arrogant Bremen team it could have been 4 or 5.

Bremen looked like they thought it was a forgone conclusion. Had all the possesion in the first half but did nothing with it. Diego's flame was snuffed out by Hemdani and Weir straight away.

Davis and Baz were good, but Dailly is shocking at best.

I would dressed
------------------Mac------------------
Broadfoot---Weir-----King Carlos---Papac
-----------------Hemdani----------------
----------Baz---------------Davis--------
Burke-----------------------------Adam
-----------------Cousin------------------

terrible that Dailly saw the pitch, he ws useless 10 years ago...he's no better now.

I wouldn't be surprised if we went out next game thouugh...Not that I don't have faith...It's just bremen were played off the park in the second half and are going to be pissed next game...and if Frings and Borowski are back the quality in the team goes waaaaay up.

I hope McCullough's gaff doesn't catch up to us...

but otherwise I am a happy bear today!!!
GIRFUY, no Timothy in Europe

 

[johnnybluenose]

PS: Guinness, we missed you at RSC#1 Today

actually stay away.....You're bad luck, especially against Zee Germans

 

[Rangerforever]

Actually in Bremen I would go with:

------------------Mac------------------
Broadfoot-Weir-King Carlos-Papac-Hemdani-Baz-Davis-Burke-Adam
-----------------Cousin------------------
