Of course not - I put them in that order for you  ;)

This is the first appreciation I get for Because There's Silence. That's nice :-)
Let me know if you listen again and your evaluation changes.

Well, FC Midtjylland just went and knocked Southampton out of the EL, thereby qualifying for the group stage (1-1 in Southampton, 1-0 in Herning). So at least we have one team there. Brøndby was knocked out with a blast, losing 5-0 to PAOK Saloniki in Greece and drawing 1-1 in Denmark.

Last Sunday, I was in the crowd just behind the goal when this happened:



Morten Nordstrand scores with a bicycle kick in the 89th minute, securing AGF a 2-2 draw away vs FC København.

Here I am, seconds after the goal:

I'm very active with The New Wave at the moment. Next Saturday we'll play our 5th gig this summer, and I've just finished and recorded a new batch of songs which I've made into an album, which you can be the first to listen to before we play them live.
They are quite high quality demo recordings but of course not to be confused with studio recordings.

What is it then?

The problem in Hungary is the right wing government was clever enough to foresee its own downfall by the turning of the democratic clock and to eliminate democracy as a precaution.
#83
I get it :-) Clever. USA is somewhere around 2 o'clock right now. In Denmark, we're at 5 o'clock. UK too.
#84
They must be quite rich to travel so far for fun. What characterizes the "new middle class"?
#85
I get a lot of middle-aged, Brazilian tourists at the hotel at the moment, and they are the worst at speaking English. Most of them barely know "hello". They are also quite demanding, but not rude.

Okay, thank you!

I get a lot of middle-aged, Brazilian tourists at the hotel, by the way, and they are the worst at speaking English. Most of them barely know "hello". They are also quite demanding, but not rude.

Must be a pain to sew...

EL play-off round:

PAOK Saloniki vs Brøndby IF
FC Midtjylland vs Southampton

It's kind of fun that FC Midtjylland drew Southampton because the Premier League is so familiar to me. But they're definitely going to lose. Brøndby has a chance, of course, but they're not looking like a team that can eliminated a top team from Greece.

Another disappointing year for Denmark. FC København is out after losing 2-3 at home to FK Jablonec from Czech Republic. Very disappointing.

Brøndby (currently in last place in the league) barely scraped by with a 2-2 away draw vs Omonia Nicosia. So they're in the EL play-off round, and if Videoton are there, then so is FC Midtjylland after being eliminated from the CL qualifier by APOEL Nicosia. So it's 0 teams in the CL group stage and either 0,1 or 2 teams in the EL group stage. In any case it's disappointing - unless of course some teams get exceptionally far in the EL.

I'm glad Videoton was eliminated, but it's a shame about Debrecen and Férencvaros.

Yeah, that's the reason. It only counts for national team ice hockey.
