---------------------

The Spurs game is just about to start on Five if anyone is interested in watching it.

Keane scores a fine goal for Spurs. A cross was cut back to him and he fired a volley past the keeper. Spurs haven't been particularly good, but Keane has looked sharp in recent games and he scores again.

0-2 but I didn't see the second goal.

Teams for the big one in half an hour, hope this is legible...

Spartak are happarently 1-0 up on Leverkusen, penalty converted by Pavlyuchenko for a foul on Torbinsky by Kießling. not that I'm watching.

Someone called Shish kebab or something has been sent off in the Spuds game.

Bayern are playing a strong team, it will be a very tough match for Bolton and they don't even have Anelka playing. For FF purposes (and a little personal satisfaction) I hope Ribery and Toni tear them to pieces. Leverkusen's group looks very open, all the teams are quite evenly matched. A defeat in Moscow isn't too unexpected, although they've still got a bit of time to rescue a result.

Allez, your line-up is wrong. Lell is playing, as is Ottl, Schweinsteiger and Podolski. Toni is only on the bench, he has been a disastrous FF captain so far!

An under-strength Bolton side are beating Bayern Munich in Germany! They've caused them a couple of problems early on and Gardner opens the scoring.

--------

Fantastic goal from Podolski to draw Bayern level. Ribery was the instigator of the move and Podolski fired in a great goal with the outside of his boot.

1-1 podolski...klose assist

what a miss by sweinsteiger.

1-1 half time

No way Bolton will win. They will capitulate in the 2nd half. That team is absolutlely awful!

yeah i think they will tire 2nd half and with players like klose , ribery , podolski , scwienstieger they will pay the price.

Think I'll start keeping a closer eye on the Uefa Cup...
Bayern, Villarreal and Fiorentina are perhaps the biggest names. Have I missed anyone of note?

I'm sure there's some good football being played, but if Sporting end up there (the very least expected of them) I would hope to go far in the competition... latest knock-out stages.

I'm guessing Peseiro's Panathinaikos will be playing some good football, but if his time at Sporting is anything to go on, the squad will lack unity and true fighting spirit.

Podolski 2-1!

Game over.

lol Bolton truly are a pile of wank though I don't think they'll get relegated,

Did anyone see Nolan's throw? Comical!

Lol, that team we're playing is so Cr@p.

Fantasy going well so far, but I'm annoyed that Hitzfeld already took off Ribery, who was on fire. Thankfully it was 25 seconds past the 60th minute. Now a couple more goals for my captain Klose please.

There really is no creativity of note!

Diouf and Anelka are injured, otherwise that might be a half decent side. But we've never replaced Okocha and Djorkaeff in midfield. Or we have, but with McCann

Feindouno was available in the summer, I'm sure we could have got him. But no instead we got Wilhelmsson and Helguson.

Mikel Alonso is decent though.

Unlucky from Bolton it's been a dogged effort but tbh this result is never in doubt. The bench is shoddy!

HAHAHAHAHA

2-2

lol eating my words or what.

Bayern are $h!t!

Jesus Christ. Shots on target 9-2. Score 2-2.

Super Super Kev, Super super KEV, SUPER KEVIN DAVIES!!!!

Give Bolton some credit ! how they have scored twice against Bayern is something.

It's unreal Gary Megson is going to become an instant hero at this rate!

BOOOOOOOLTON WANDERERS FC!!!! We're BUT FAR THE BES TTEAM, THE WORLD, HAS EVER SEEN!

Hitzfield needs to be sacked.

Why did he take of Ribery so early , is he injured ?
