im guessing that the height above sea level might have some effect on the game

Cologne- 37 m (121 ft)
Johannesburg-1,753 m (5,751 ft)


Alright, Mr. Technical.




It's still shit though. But I'll stick it out, 'cos I love 'em!

After two and a half games, none of our strikers have found a goal. If we have the same strikers for next season, then it looks like Rafa is going to be our top scorer again.

Its a very valid point - Argentina lost, what 6-0 or something ridiculous to Bolivia due to primarily the altitude which must be incredibly sapping, especially in pre-season where we are still a good few weeks short of full match fitness.

Not making excuses, but surely it's a fundamental reason for the lethargic displays so far and looking positively, it should prove very beneficial in our fitness preparations.

Prediction for a triple substitution on 60 minutes:

Pav for VDV
Kaboul for Bassong
Bale for Lennon

Another goal by VDV 2-0 one on one with the keeper from a superb though ball by Benny

I can't wait till we sign a striker. VDV is quite frankly embarrassing everyone else.
