    Apparently so. I'm thinking the Ajax fans won't be happy with anything less than the league title.

    Though as an Ami, I am glad that Beasley got to play for a good portion of time as a sub.

      Unless PSV experiences a major collapse, they will take this year's title. Ajax needs to close a seven-point gap to overtake AZ for second place (Champions' League qualifier spot). It is a tough onus, but we're facing AZ at home in April, and they have a tough sked ahead (also with UEFA Cup matches in-between).

      IIRC, Beasley came on when it was already 0-4, so he wasn't doing anything special in the half hour that he was on the pitch.

        Yeah, but he got some good playing time nevertheless .

        Yeah, it is quite a ladder for Ajax to climb to reach AZ, and AZ is looking good (at least in UEFA Cup). I guess the new coach will get another year to see if he can return Ajax to the usual place.

          Watching Real Madrid vs Malaga, and wow, Beckham actually looks useful . Put him in the center of the midfield, and he does pretty good. That being said, I think Madrid needs a Striker who can put a head on Beckham's brilliant crosses. Of course someone like that wouldn't be famous enough to be a galacticos I guess .

                Ramat Gan.

                ( I'll see this one on T.V., of course, but there is a chance I'll go the distance and see the game against France 4 days later)

                  I'm guessing Ramat Gan is in Israel?

                  Well, then you'll be safe. Though I'm not sure how you'll do on the scoresheet.

                    I predicsiate that the players from the local league will suck real bad, esp. wrt fitness ( the league is horrible this year, zero competition) Our players from europe will deliver, though.

                      But you're guys will have to be top quality to get a ball past Given. Keane and Carr are also going to be on Ireland's side after not playing the last friendly. It'll be a tough nut to crack.

                        Oh, for sure!

                        We'll just have to out-brutalize the Irish.
                        All the coach needs to do is to tell the arab members to show off some of their league charms to our Irish guests.

                        j/k Seriously, though, I think we're counting on a packed stadium. Everything will be just fine. People are worried about Ireland? I am more worried about France on the 30th.

                          In response, the Irish manager tells his players to play like... well, Irish .

                            Nah, his first goal was in the fourth minute of first-half overtime while there only should have been two minutes of OT
                            His second goal was a penalty, and the third was a crappy goal...

                            All in all, a flattering result. As the new coach, Blind still has a lot of work to do...
                            Blind something tells me its going to be hard work...

                              It seems that the "sent off" stat is what the real contension is about.
