Auxerre 1 — ASSE 3 and our European chances
By: Richard | March 23rd, 2008Well, let me start off by saying that I was wrong.
Totally wrong.
Pedretti played (initial reports were that he’d be out)
More importantly though, we scored four goals! (albeit, the first one was in our own net)
Pascal Feindouno had an incredible game (I counted seven chances) and was rewarded with an 81′ goal.
We were down 1-0 at the half, and kept taking chances the entire time.
Here are the two better of the goals.
1-1
1-3
Now;
call me crazy, but it seems (don’t laugh) a European place is not outside of the realm of possibility for us.
(I said don’t laugh)
We have 8 matches left against the following:
1. Home vs Le Mans (6th)
2. Home vs Lens (17th)
3. Away vs Sochaux (16th)
4. Home vs Lorient (8th)
5. Away vs Metz (20th)
6. Home vs Lille (7th)
7. Away vs PSG (18th)
8. Home vs Monaco (13th)
Put in that perspective, it seems that we could finish the season strong. Our three ramaining away games are against teams that are in danger of being relegated. Le Mans & Lille are always tough. Lens and PSG might be backed into a relagation corner by the time we face them, so they’ll either be dangerous, or totally self-destructive, and have given up. But, all-in-all these are winable games.
I know you’re reading this and giggling to yourself, but I think it’s possible.
There’s still a faint glimmer of hope, and if I’m wactching games mid-week next season, I’ll at least be able to say that I knew we’d make it.

St. Etienne is club fuul of shit. Lyon alway kick their asses. Hahahaha Benz scores in 91′ minute this season for 1-1. Let’s say that Le Verts never gone be like Les Gones. We enjoyed when we look St. Eteinne lose. I gone never forget a words of St.Etienne speaker : Lyon is dead, Lyon is dead, he never gone be champion. I have just little comment. We are champions, you are losers, and that will be forever.

Sainté in europe, that would be a good reason for me to watch uefa cup matches!!!
And i guess they would go for it all the way, not like Bordeaux and Marseille playing B teams…
38/69/42 ftw!!!
