I hate to say it Andy but Drogba is struggling to get out of Bougherra's pocket.
You are correct about the imaginary card though. Dirty Bassa.

From the BBC text updates:

2000: From Cameron in Edinburgh via text: "Has the hero Sol Bamba started for the Ivory Coast? He is the best centre back/defensive midfielder in the SPL and never looks out of place with the expensive boys."
Yes I can confirm the Hibs man has started for the Elephants. Full teams are further down the page.

[Toaods]

Highlights of this round of games will be shown on BBC on Tuesday.


Bamba's always no 22 - squad numbering.


Drogba ha sbeencarrying a knock since the start of the tournament but the dirty Hun Buggerer should have been carded in the first minute for going right through him from behind. The Old Firm experience showing through.

The IC coast is a bit radical and Kolo Toure runs like hes about 65 years old, although still quicker than his bro.

[SRHibs]

Suicidal defending by Bamba there.

[Andy74]

Oh dear sol!

[bob12345]

How's Bamba playing?

[Toaods]

How's Bamba playing?

hardly had anything to do but nearly sold teh jerseys caught in possession facing his own goal.

The IC are far too laid back - obviously think they are Barcelona and will win at some point. Algerians are trying to hussle them and in the main it's working.

Perhaps the IC aren't too bothered if it goes to extra time- get some others a game as remember they missed a match so haven't played for a week or so.

[PeterboroHibee]

IC have been awful, no urgency, Toure and Zakora have been terrible in the middle, losing the ball so easily, and had a few dodgy moments at the back.

Kalou and Gervinho have been the only players really giving it a go.

[Wotherspiniesta]

Bamba is having a 'mare :bitchy:

2-1 civ What a strike Keita

wHAT A BLOODY STRIKE CMON THE IC

Wonder what the banner the camera went to had on it. "Bamba something something something".

2-2. Bougherra. How ****ing typical is that. Bamba ballwatching there. Should've had that covered.

[Dunbar Hibee]

Good game though.

[Frazerbob]

Now that my coupon is Donald Ducked I can't decide what result I wont.

Ivory Coast win would potentially scupper any transfer deal fo Bamba before the end of the window.

or

Ivory Coast lose and we get Sol back a wee bit quicker.

[Dunbar Hibee]

3-2 Algeria:grr:

3-2 Algeria. :thumbsup:

3-2 Algeria

Another cross in another case of Bamba and the IC coast defence posted missing.

I think Sol will be back ar ER for next week! he has not played well tonight

Do we get Big Sol back for Wednesday evening? :devil:

[Andy74]

Sol has just made sure he's going nowhere! Good lad!

Cannae slate the big guy for that one the left back was nowhere.

[Wotherspiniesta]

On tonight's showing, I'd stick with Hanlon :greengrin

[Toaods]

to be fair, no chance there - watch the replay, the camera angle makes him look like he's dithering but the wider angle shows he had 3 opponents to mark with Buggerer being the man who appeared at the back post. IC midfield don't track back.

Agree. Their defence are not too fussy about it either!

Algeria should have scored at least 5 by now

[greenlex]

Sols on his way home. :thumbsup: Unlucky Big Man. :agree:

[MacBean]

should have stood!!

[iwasthere1972]

On tonight's showing I would be asking Colin Murdoch to consider coming out of retirement. :devil:

Does this mean that the East Stand project will be put on hold. :greengrin

[--------]

That Drogba's rubbish.

He let our big guy down.

:wink:

[Jim44]

Serves them right for poor defending....Bamba definitely at fault for their equaliser and wasn't too clever at their winner. I can't understand how the Algerian goalkeeper managed to con everybody for five minutes twice in extra time and took all the momentum and fire out of the Ivorians..............cheating at it's most skilful. :greengrin

[iwasthere1972]

:wink:

:agree: Not a patch on our Colin Nish.

Be fair he must have been up against a quality centre half, any ideas who it was:hide:

to be fair, who ever he is must play with a great club team if he can keep Drogba quite:wink:

[fife hfc]

Both goals looked bad initially from Bamba's point of view but on both occasions the full back failed to tuck in and left bamba and toure out numbered in the middle.

I've never actually seen a team so lacklustre and it looked like they didn't give a hoot (especially drogba who has woeful in all IC games). Good that we'll get Bamba back for Saturday.

[iwasthere1972]

To be fair even Doddy or Jonnyboy could have kept Drogba quiet tonight. :devil:

The way to keep a Drogba quiet is to hit him REALLY hard in the first couple of minutes - it's very seldom a referee will send a defender off that early, especially in an international match.

Hit 'em early, hit 'em hard, and leave a permanent mark. That's what the guys in the old days used to do.






You know it makes sense. :wink:
