0-0, a draw. Not to shabby, not a win, but not a lose. We take a point away from a well played Espanyol team. We really should be grateful. Its not everyday the captain of your opposing team gets a penalty kick blocked =D. Great keeping by the Spanish keeper. I honestly think it shouldn’t of been a PK due to him just losing his footing, but obviously the ref had other things in mind.
I couldn’t catch the number or player that was crouching down and praying to the heavens for that to go in. Sadly, it didn’t work out for the best 
, well at least for his side =D. Overall, it was a good game. We played well, they played well, we had chances, they had chances. If only we were able to finish…or get the handball called on the 52′ minute V_V (00:39). In the end I applaud Espanyols defense.
Yes, we are now in 3rd place on the table. Really not too bad. I do on the otherhand, have good news!
Mr. Capdevilla will be staying with us for another season, and has even shown interest in playing with the club until 2011.
“When they offered it to me I didn’t even have to think about it,” said Capdevila of his new contract. “Because I feel at home here”
Damn straight we want you here. IMO he has to be one of our better defensive players.
This week we’ll be quite busy. Taking on Aalborg Boldspilklub on Tuesday, and Atlético Madrid on Sunday. I’ll be honest. I have absolutely NO idea about this Danish side were facing on Tuesday. Seeing some minor history and reports, I don’t really get a fear or cringe from them. However, I don’t think we should get ahead of ourselves and proclaim the win right now. We’ll see what I can find until the actual game comes up.
Atlético Madrid. Oh boy. Odd, it’s the guy who got me to write on the Offside club. We finally meet. I don’t know if were making a big post or anything due to the teams playing, but it shouldn’t be a problem for us taking the three points at home =D.
AaB prediction: I have no idea?! 3-0? 5-0!? 0-1? I’ll get back to you on that.
Atlético prediction: 2-1. Mr “Kun” will have a ready Villarreal defense to get by.

Tamudo is just not playing like Tamudo or we would have been looking down at 3 points. I admit it wasn’t a penalty but there were a few that weren’t called in the first half. Good match, though. Very entertaining. You lot had all the posession, but we’re playing on the counter-attack mostly. Good luck.
