I don't know, Moi.

 

I see that everybody is on that Mourinho's mistakes thread. That's not good.

The man has just made one mistake.

 

You should forgive him.

 

I do.

Kevin De Bruyne should have played the Super Cup finale against Bayern München. He was the best Chelsea player in the preparation and at that time, Jonty.

I can't be sure, but from memory KDB had a bad game against United and got subbed off very early, which was the game before the Super Cup.

Correct.

 

He shouldn't had played against United. That was too much for him. A little break would have been good for him. And then the final.

Perhaps. But he played with Bremen very well against Bayern.

He knew them. He had the experience. He had the motivation.

 

(United came too soon for him. He needed a break at that time.)

 

Don't forget that the road from Bremen to Chelsea is not a easy one. But he did well, didn't he. His preparation was very good and impressive. I know that the most of his followers thought he would play that final.

 

If he had played that final and the first games of your competition, you would have seen another Kevin De Bruyne. I'm sure.

The Lukaku penalty in that same game was not a mistake but a wrong choise.

So, one mistake in a season is not bad.

 

Mister Mourinho stays one of the best in the world!

 

 

 

Marc Wilmots is the best.

And on a good second place Diego Simeone.

Krc - Mod is  very busy at the moment.  He and his family have just moved house, and he probably doesn't know whether he is coming or going!

 

Do you know that English expression?  When you have so much to do that you don;t know where to start, you say "I don't know whether I am coming or going!"

Our mate The Mod should give you the key, Moi.

He can not 'coming or going' now. It's almost time.

 

If you want a real beer in a real Belgian pub, the owner can not say that he's 'coming or going', Moi. 'Sorry guys'. 'No beer.' 'I have so mutch to do right now.'

Such a shame!

 

 

 

 

Elections, today.

Pffffffffffffffffffff.

 

 

Yes, for reasons that are lost in the mists of antiquity (but maybe someone more erudite than moi can explain) elections in the UK are always held on a Thursday, whereas in France (and presumably Belgium too?) they are on a Sunday.

 

I suppose it makes more sense to have elections on a day when most people are not at work.

Ah now, I have consulted Wikipedia and found this (perhaps) plausible explanation.

 

Election Day in the United Kingdom is by tradition a Thursday. It has been suggested that this tradition arose as the best of several circumstances: Friday pay-packets would lead to more drunken voters on Fridays and weekends; having the election as far after a Sunday as possible would reduce the influence of Sunday sermons; many towns held markets on Thursdays, thus the local population would be travelling to town that day anyway. Under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011, all future General Elections shall take place on the first Thursday in May every five years, barring special circumstances. Most other European countries hold all Elections on Sundays. Polls in the United Kingdom open at 7:00 and close at 22:00.

Along with the above my Grandfather told me it was also because of shops early closing days.
