How Long Usually Is Pubic Hair

THE "ENGLISH WEEK"

MGladbach II 2 RWE two
Reading 0 Burnley two

The search for the away win experience (of away win if you could speak in the light of RWE's away record is not really) turned out first so bleak as ever, no, really still worse. Mid 1.HZ were the red-whites already 0-2 behind, a little less than 500 spectators, what impressive for a viewing audience.
But I found a recipe on how to deal with RWE-away games, if you're not even on site, and to live here to attend a RWE-Auswärtsspiel, das ist momentan nun wahrhaftig keine verlockende Vorstellung.
Also, es ganz einfach: Direkt nach dem ersten Gegentreffer, spätestens aber nach dem zweiten, raus auf den Balkon, Buch lesen, evtl. noch ein Bier zur Hand und dann einfach warten. Wie von Geisterhand wird beim Blick durch den Balkontürspalt Richtung Liveticker aus dem 2:0 erst ein 2:1 und dann sogar noch ein 2:2. Auswärtspunkt !Auswärtspunkt!! Dank Toren von Wunderlich und Kühne.
Schön wäre es, wenn Mike Wunderlich mithilfe dieses Tores vielleicht doch zumindest etwas von der Form wieder findet, die ihn bei Köln II ausgezeichnet haben muss. Nun hat man bei RWE wahrlich schon eine mittlerweile unüberschaubare Menge seen of players who were committed with high hopes, but then come up in no time, the presumption in talent-free twins or doubles allowed. But still I refuse to believe that even Mike Wunderlich falls into this category.
On we go on Friday with a home game against Leverkusen II, one of the many sympathetic reserve troops. The places 1-4 are now occupied in the West Regional two previous missions, Lev II and II MGladbach are already behind in wait when the first 6 places will be awarded at the end of the season in reserves, which should surprise no one. Is there really someone at the DFB, the development of the reserve leagues, regional leagues uh keep an eye on? Probably not and why, is still running but in German football.

The much more interesting and more important game was held directly after then held in Reading. In the Madejski Stadium with a 2-0 Burnley secured are moving into the Championship play-off final, where you meet on May 25 at Sheffield Utd. The victory was unexpected, but great effects on the external perception of the Clarets who suddenly as a kind of ambassador of good old football hearts fly the neutral fans, almost old motto football v modern football see
and the following in When Saturday Comes and twohundredpercent.com over copied items that really any football romantics, and what are RWE fans if grant not football romantics, a thick lump in throat would, alone turn broken to German conditions, should and could be such articles read sometimes in conjunction with RWE.


Burnley heading back where they belong?
Monday 11 May ~
Reading fans might now want to hear it but I'm prepared to bet that a lot of viewers, especially those above a certain age, will want Burnley to prevail in tonight's Championship play-off semi-final. Football fans aged over 40 will remember as First Division Burnley regulars and I still tend to regard them, as whimsical as this may sound, as a top-level club fallen on hard times rather than the habitués of the bottom two divisions that they have been for most of the past 30 years. If either Burnley or Preston were to be promoted this season, there would be eight clubs from the north-west in the top level, the most there has been since 1960-61. At that time, Liverpool were in the seventh of their eight years as a Second Division club – and Burnley were reigning League champions.

In a football annual published that year, Burnley were compared to Stade de Reims, the French team that had been in two European Cup finals over the preceding five years. It wasn't a fanciful suggestion. Both clubs were from small towns with consequently modest home gates, and had built their success on a steady supply of talent from a well organised youth system – when Burnley acquired striker Frank Casper from Rotherham in 1967 it was the first time in seven years that they had paid a fee for a player. Not that their squad was staffed with locals – for a while the majority came from the north-east via Jack Hixon, the scout who later spotted Alan Shearer.



Reims' era ended with relegation in 1963-64. They returned to the first level subsequently but their only achievement of note since that time was to be runners-up in the French Cup in 1976. Like the other Lancashire town teams, Burnley were badly hit by the abolition of the maximum wage which led to players gravitating to the region's four biggest clubs in Liverpool and Manchester. They hung on longer than the others – after a brief spell in the Second, they finished in the top half of Division One in successive seasons between 1973 and 1975. But like Bolton, Preston and Blackpool they eventually spent time in the fourth level.

Now in a wholly different age for football, Preston and Burnley might meet at Wembley to contest a place in the First Division, from which Preston have been absent since going down in 1961. Some people, and not just Blackburn fans, would be wholly unimpressed with the notion of someone feeling a sentimental attachment to either of these clubs. But football's history can't simply be brushed away, however much effort is put into divorcing the modern game from its past, with regular talk of records set "since the Premier League began". Anyhow, this is as much about the present as the past. Forza Lancashire. Carl Hawkins

In Praise Of… Burnley Football Club
May 12th, 2009 By admin Category: In Praise Of, Latest, The Football League
This evening’s Championship play-off semi-final between Reading and Burnley was a battle between old and new. In the blue corner were Reading, snatched from the jaws of obscurity by John Madjeski, who dropped them into a brand new stadium and gave them the means to challenge for a place in the Premier League. In the claret corner, representing “old football”, were Burnley. In many respects, Burnley are the anti-Reading. Stoically northern (it’s almost impossible to even say “Burnley” without lapsing into a cod-Lancastrian accent), they still play at the pleasingly onomatopoeic Turf Moor, which is one of the oldest football grounds in English football and which seems to almost sit overlooking the town as a reminder of glory days gone by. They are a club with a rich and deep history who, should they get promotion into the Premier League through the play-offs, would be taking their place in the top division of English football for the first time since 1976.

Founder members of the Football League in 1888, they are one of just three clubs to have spent their entire history playing in that competition (with Preston North End and Notts County - one of the original twelve, Accrington, folded and was replaced while all of the others have managed at least one season in the Premier League). Every defining characteristic of the traditional football club is present and correct - the autocratic chairman (and in Bob Lord they arguably had the most autocratic of the lot), the distinctive colours, the occasional financial crises and championship winning sides, Burnley have had the lot. Twice league champions (in 1921 and 1960), they even reached the quarter-finals of the European Cup before losing to SV Hamburg in 1961.

When they reached their lowest point, they played out a dramatic escape from what was widely expected be oblivion. Automatic promotion and relegation between the Football League and the Football Conference was being introduced in 1987, and Burnley went into their final match of the season against Orient needing a win to stay up. A crowd of almost 16,000 packed Turf Moor out and Burnley won the match 2-1. This result, coupled with a defeat for Lincoln City, meant that Lincoln (whose two successive relegations in 1986 and 1987 could be partly be attributed to the after-effects of their involvement as the opposition at Valley Parade on the day of the Bradford Fire in 1985) became the first team to be automatically relegated from the Football League.

Since then, Burnley’s fortunes have improved. They were beaten at Wembley in the final of the 1988 Sherpa Vans Trophy (now the Johnstones Paint Trophy) by Wolverhampton Wanderers, but the 80,000 crowd remains the biggest crowd ever for a match between two Fourth Divisions and was a potent symbol of the two clubs’ latent potential. Unlike Wolves (their sparring partners during the two clubs’ last truly great days during the late 1950s), however, they haven’t yet made it into the Premier League. They narrowly missed out on the play-offs in 2001 and 2002, but have spent much of the last four or five years keeping their heads above water in the Championship.

The signs of their potential this season have been there for anyone willing to look closely enough. They knocked both Chelsea and Arsenal out of the League Cup and were moments from a Wembley final against Manchester United before Spurs nicked it from under their noses. In the league, they came into form at just the right time, losing just one of their eleven matches to finish in fifth place. In some respects, they were fortunate to be playing Reading in the semi-finals. Reading had looked like shoo-ins for an automatic promotion place throughout much of the winter but had stumbled in the spring and missed out in favour of Birmingham City on the last day of the season.

Burnley won the first leg 1-0 at Turf Moor last week, which might have appeared rather too slender a lead to take to Reading for the second leg, but Reading’s home form - they were without a home win since beating Wolves 1-0 at the end of January - seemed to indicate that Burnley had a great chance of getting through, and so it turned out. Two goals in seven second half minutes this evening were enough to wrap the result up for Burnley, who will now play Sheffield United at Wembley for a place in the Premier League on Bank Holiday Monday. Manager Owen Coyle deserves all credit for dragging his team up from mid-table and giving them a great chance of making the Premier League for the first time.

If they do make it into the Premier League next season, it will mean that seven of the founding members of the Football League - Aston Villa, Wolves, Blackburn Rovers, Bolton Wanderers, Stoke City, Everton and Burnley - will be in the top division of English football, 121 years after the formation of the Football League. Even merely the continuing existence of the founding fathers of English football should be a cause for celebration. The fact that a market town with a population of 75.000 people can challenge for a place amongst the English football's elite remains a testament to the strength in depth of English football. And who - apart from Sheffield United supporters - would not want to see Burnley vs Wolves in the Premier League next season (twohundredpercent.net)


A victory Burnley now separated from promotion to the Premier League, a large performance for an old traditional club from a little town of 75.000 inhabitants. With 60 games
Burnley has the most games of any Football League club completed, it used only 23 players. By comparison, semi-final opponent is Reading to 52 games and 32 used games. The 37 year old Graeme Alexander was there in every single competitive game at kick-off on the pitch.
If I did not know that the god of football is a deceitful bastard, I would say: Come, let's win but only once, just once, the right ones.

A victory of Burnley could have ripple effect on all the clubs who think their fans for quite some time, "our best days are past and forgotten, we're just there to fill up the leagues."
Burnley is in the process to connect the evidence to the contrary.

SIV'S FINEST HOUR Malmquist ........

Sporty It is indeed for RWE only moderately and in the public image, there are still great opportunities for improvement, but on the field of music today, RWE won a great success. The great "Adiole" by Siv Malmquist was today named the best European club song. From the official eulogy:

"No club in Western Europe it has ever done more impressive way to carry out his sporting achievements the lyrics of their own fan anthem ad absurdum. Those who have assumed the Germans, no sense of humor that is not been at the Essen Hafenstraße "

Below here the lyrics of" Adiole "(known as "Oh RWE")


Since two of us we found ooooh RWE
characteristic I only happy hours, RWE
ooooh I've heaven on earth, RWE
oooooh no more can be Beautiful, oooooh RWE

Would my life would be without meaning, ooooh RWE
not give up, ooooh RWE
With you I feel safe, oooooh RWE
happy today looking forward to tomorrow, ooooh RWE


Chorus:

the world I called you and I
As air and light so I need you You are my
ABC, my great multiplication
like a magnet, you attract me,
the world to me, the World for me
your name and I



Since failed the really big sporting success in recent years for RWE but has Siv modernized Malmquist its probably the biggest hit now and added the following lines:

verse 3:

goals, like too late, ooooh RWE
cashing us and while many, ooooh RWE
And in the fourth division, ooooh RWE
Are we rarely winner, ooooh RWE


Chorus:

you pull on the jersey Essen,
you unlearn everything you can
do not be afraid, it is very fast, you'll already see
But only when you next year, then switching to
'NEM town club
hand your form and success instantly back.



verse 4:

The eternal search coach ooooh, RWE
is gradually coming to a farce or plague, ooooh RWE
was the last of the 's just a few days, ooooh RWE
What's next is the question, ooooh RWE




Chorus:

If you're standing on masochism
And then go to the port road
Then you are there at the right place at the right time
Also in Verl, Worms and Oggersheim
When you load the Essenes than willing
for good guests are rarely think with a little drum
always, always make
soon approaching when the next descent
in food is the next trap door is always ready.
