Andorra football teams play in spain, and monaco as you all know in france. Andorra is a bit more spanish than french culturally, and monaco quite more french than italian.


The team is UE Bossost and they play in the Ligue Haute Garonne Comminges Categoire Excellence...in fact I found lots of teams who play in other countries whilst googling the Welsh teams.Very enjoyable for a trivia nerd..

you made me look on google maps, and i just learned something!! :) (that village is less than 2 kilometers away from france)
there is actually a very small spanish enclave inside of france, east of andorra (and like 10 times smaller than andorra) called llivia. wtf is that?????? 1589 inhabitants, lol. apparently, it's a village over 5000 years old and the history on its wiki page is quite dense.. had absolutely never heard of this!

Yup, i love the history and geography stuff you learn nerding around with football clubs. Makes you look at some regions you would ve never thought of ;)


Anyway, as I ve been saying for years, Cabaye signs off for the PSG. It s the most important player from newcastle, how are you replacing him? Seems like Cabella is for june.

Well, this has been going on for at least a year. It was very very likely that it would happen this winter. If newcastle accepted the offer, it means that they have someone on their mind.

Looks like you guys are on the dutch forward from gladbach, de joonk. But it s a midfielder you need...

Pardew's bound to put a few bids in on the last day, it just depends if anyone fancies joining. Big players rarely move in the winter. I guess Cabaye wants the glory.

Southampton 2-2 Arsenal

That was nothing short of a disaster. Looked jaded, sluggish and just didn't turn up for the game. We've finally slipped up enough to let City and Chelsea have a sniff at the top of the table. Going to be a fascinating end to the season though. :)

I watched a big part of the Spurs vs Man City match and switched to Chelsea's game when it was 3-0. Amazing spectacle. The Premier is the best league by far. After the Chelsea match ended, I switched to Barca's game, boring.

Amazing how Man City plays at full speed and they are still very accurate. Chelsea just couldn't score, super exciting finish. Some might say they missed Mata. Hazard is incredible to watch, what a level has that guy, Belgium will be a threat in the WC if only for Hazard.


I agree with betiko, can't wait for Barcelona vs Man City. And Pellegrini knows La Liga very well.

Yes Leeds! 5-1 in our biggest derby. McCormack with a treble, he's going at the end of the season if we don't at least contend for promotion. West Ham put a £3mil bid in which was rejected with a £5mil asking price and West Ham borked. Not bothered about McDermott getting sacked. He's done a poor job overall, although the timing of his sacking may not have been ideal. I'd love to bring Poyet in but Sunderland have started getting their act together now. Maybe we can get Ferguson out of retirement or tempt Martinez away from Everton?

and the Atletico is 3 ahead of madrid and barça!!!!! :)
And the betis won vs Espanyol 2-0.... damn third victory of the season, hadn't won since day 7 and we are day 22! so we are 8 points away from saving our asses with 16 games to go... sounds veryyyyy complicated!

In France, unfortunately monaco tied, so they are now 5 behind Paris, and next week end it's Monaco-Paris. They could be at 2 if they win, but they could've tied in points with Paris had they not stupidly tied vs Lorient this week end 2-2.

Apparently McDermott has been re-instated because this rich Italian dude wants him when he takes over. Meanwhile, our current owners kicked out the lawyer who sacked McDermott. That seems unreasonable since he was obviously following instruction. I don't think takeover talks about LUFC have stopped for over a year, I struggle to keep up.

i struggle to keep up understanding who/what you're talking about :D
can you keep it to: "leed's current coach"; "a very good player from leeds"; "leed's current owner" and stuff like that? otherwise I can do the same with some french/spanish second division clubs, or nietzsche with the taco bell championship.

McDermott became our manager last summer, was sacked on friday and, I think, is now our manager again.

Chelsea need to win tonight. A draw would be OK, but City dropping 3 points is what really needs to happen.

Can't see past them winning at home though hahaha!

That was an amazing performance by Chelsea.

So intense.

Say what you want about Mourinho, but he can bring the best out of his players. I can imagine Mou directing an army that would conquer the world.

He hasn't lost a home game in the Premier League, ever. Maybe ever with Chelsea, not 100%.
