A qualification campaign to remember

Posted on Saturday, 17 October 2009 by hastaelgolsiempre

Argentina’s 2010 World Cup qualification campaign isn’t likely be forgotten easily by anyone who followed it from beginning to end. For anyone who wants to read a little about the likely fallout from the decision to give the managerial job to a certified nutter, without (too much) mention of crotch-grabbing in press conferences, you can click here to read my latest piece for ESPN Soccernet. And there’s more, on the homepage of When Saturday Comes.

    I hope Maradona stays on as coach just so he can go back to the World Cup and tell Blatter to “keep sucking it”. I hope Maradona keeps being the stone in FIFA’s shoes, specifically that crook Blatter’s. I grow tired of FIFA and UEFA. Why doesn’t FIFA allow 2nd place finishers in UEFA Qual to play teams from CAF, CONCACAF and CONMEBOL? The a fore mentioned have to scrape for spots while dogcrap like Switz.,Slovakia and Serbia just cruise in. BS!

    Maradona funniness. Scroll down all the way for all the Diego photos. I split a gut every time I look at them.
