Julien LaurensPANELIST
No.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
But that's kinda for me is part of that conversation, especially Martin O'Neill.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
So I'm thinking back to Martin was in charge and remember FC Basel beating 3-1 at Celtic Park.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
They beat us 2-nothing over there in the Champions League qualifier, wasn't it? And that was the year we got to the Sevilla in the final.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
We're all debited after it, like we always are when you lose these qualification games.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
especially Martin O'Neill.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
So I'm thinking back to Martin was in charge and remember FC Basel beating 3-1 at Celtic Park.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
The beat is 2-0 over there and the champs did qualify, wasn't it? And that was the year we got to Seville in the final.
Hector BandidoPANELIST
We're all debated after it, like we always are when we lose these qualifications.
JanuszHOST
Und ich als Tourist in, in Basel, was könnte ich hier erleben? Was könnte ich sehen?
speaker_8GUEST
Ja, jetzt momentan Fußball, der FC Basel.
speaker_8GUEST
Der ist Cupsieger, Meister wahrscheinlich, oder.
speaker_8GUEST
Jetzt mor-morgen Abend, äh, hat er vor sechsunddreißigtausend Zuschauern im Stadion-
Olu OkeHOST
I have another center back to bring to your listening pleasure.
Olu OkeHOST
Guys, we've got a 90-year-old center back that plays for FC Basel called Victor Yagbe.
Olu OkeHOST
Victor Yagbe plays for FC Basel.
Olu OkeHOST
And over the weekend, he came off the bench and he provided a late assist and also scored the equalizer as Basel came back to rescue a 3-3 draw against their fellow title challengers, BSC Young Boys in the Swiss Super League.
Olu OkeHOST
Now, one of the reasons I love this move for Victor Acpe, he moved straight from, I believe, the Latvian League straight to a team like Basel.
Olu OkeHOST
What's the word? The building factory or the production timeline of having more centre-backs.
Olu OkeHOST
So, guys, keep watching Victor Akpe.
Olu OkeHOST
He was absolutely sensational this weekend for FC Basel.
Olu OkeHOST
He started in defense as Basel beat FC Zurich two goals to one.
Olu OkeHOST
He was booked, actually conceded an early penalty in the eighth minute, but then he won a late penalty for FC Basel, which they scored to win the match.
Olu OkeHOST
So next up for Basel, they play against Young Boys on Saturday, 5.30 p.m., So watch this space.
Olu OkeHOST
Emmanuel Fernandez had no game for Rangers over the weekend.
TinoHOST
But despite that, you know, there's sore ones there.
TinoHOST
There was the pain of losing to FC Bale in the qualifier that eventually saw us drop out of the UEFA Cup for the Seville run.
TinoHOST
So, you know, there was that disappointment.
TinoHOST
And Seville itself... was sore in the moment you know there was devastation around the stadium at that time but there was also a huge pride in Seville wasn't there in terms of what the club had given you and just restoring a bit of credibility in Europe so there was mixed emotions there in terms of some other kind of European stuff you'll have seen the banner I'm sure from the Green Brigade on Saturday rhyming off the various failings what is it now eight failings out of the last ten in terms of Champions League qualification AEK Athens Cluj Maribor Ferencvaros Michelin Kairat Almaty and now LASK etc etc.
Harry BradyHOST
So I'm very much a, every cloud has a silver lining person.
Harry BradyHOST
So by Wednesday morning, I was persuading myself, well, we got knocked out by Basil and ended up getting the Seville.
Harry BradyHOST
So if it was me and I was running the football club, Wednesday maybe Thursday maybe Wednesday might have been a what the fuck meeting but certainly by Thursday my conversation if I was CEO with the manager would have been right okay so that's happened can he change it it's in the past we can have a full debrief about what went wrong but when the season's going now and we've got a game Saturday and a game Wednesday and a game Saturday so we need to sort this out yep your target for the season what's our target for the season domestically and in Europe and and I think we should have been I would have been sitting down with the manager for double as our minimum domestic and where are we in Europa League last day last four I mean I'd have been maybe setting a bullish ambitious target and I'd have been sitting down with the manager saying what do I need to do between now and Wednesday to give you the best chance of finishing last eight in the Europa League.
Harry BradyHOST
Because you can't sit and wallow in the negativity.
Sean HamiltonHOST
Yeah.
Graeme FinnanPANELIST
FC Basel snapped him up, and he went and won the league in Switzerland.
Sean HamiltonHOST
Hmm.
Graeme FinnanPANELIST
He, I think he played 14 games, 15 games in that season.
JarrodHOST
It's being looked at.
JarrodHOST
Balagouisha has both Monza and FC Basel looking at him.
WillieGUEST
Do you think Celtic are actively emailing all the other clubs across Europe about Balagouisha the way they email us, us about merchandise?
JarrodHOST
I believe they probably are, but it's only going to the certain clubs that haven't blocked their emails.
