Basle (H) - Tues 9 Dec, 7.45

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

ok....

 

Gonna need a 'Big European Anfield NIght TM' here. Got to show some sort of cojones that have been largely absent so far this season.

 

If I was a betting man, I'd say draw...assuming they've done their homework, they'll set up by parking a fleet of buses & see what happens - nick one on the counter if they can...

 

The team should be pretty obvious I expect. We have to come out of the gates hard & fast, get the crowd bananas

[muleskinner]

We're winning this. Is Balotelli available?

Apparently not according to the Echo today, 5 plane loads coming over not including the team, they were very vocal last time if I remember rightly

[Conrad]

it's tailor made for mark walters

They were very fighty.

[Sion]

Young Boys were the same

 

I got kettled with them in Williamson Square. Was a laugh until they started smashing pint glasses on the floor.

[RP]

Didn't you have any shoes on?

[Rory Fitzgerald]

Didn't you have any shoes on?

 

We're in Die Hard season now

[Gunga Din]

They were very fighty.

 

 

aye. tried to storm the sandon afterwards i think

[Swan Red]

they threw bottles at the lads outside the Stanley I think it was on the way in

[Cam]

So are we going with "Baah-sil" or "Basil" for this?

 

And how come no-one ever calls them "Baaal" any more?

[whitewidow]

Let's go the American version

 

Bay-sul

[Case]

Watching this with a Baaaah zel fan at mine. If he drops a pint glass on my floor, he can feck off. He's convinced they'll win one or two nil.

Sure Baaal is the correct pronounciation

I'll go with Baaal nil actually

How do you spell 'Basel', Macca?

[Molby]

f***ing yoddling collaborators

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Is it an English or French word?

 

I don't see any 'F's' in tough

Baslé

[redjersey]

Locals in Basel speak German don't they? Swiss-German anyway. So Bar-zil it is.

 

Hope I'm wrong but it looks a nailed on 0-0 this.

[Falconhoof]

Oregano

[whitewidow]

Oregano

Ample proof that Americans ruin everything

 

Route.....

[Cam]

I'll go with Baaal nil actually

 

Sadly it suspect it may be preceded by "Liverpool nil" too.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

I hope it's a route on Tues - LFC 8-0 Basil

[scoose]

If you speak German is Basel (barsel)

 

If you speak French its Basle (Baaal)

 

I used to work for a company based there and went there a fair bit. I quite liked it apart from them taking the piss in the shop like.

 

I hand over money for purchase and say Danke - they respond Merci
