Just some random odds and ends for you to read as you bide your time waiting for Lyon’s Champions League clash with Liverpool.

<— Sid’s Serious Captain-y Face.
If you’re wondering why the captain’s armband showed up on Cris last Saturday, despite Sidney Govou also being on the pitch, it’s because our dear (former?) captain was seen [...]

With World Cup qualifiers about to take place, there isn’t too much happening at club level. But there are a few articles and updates that caught my eye.
The biggest news is the medical update on Bafetimbi Gomis. Two days ago at Guingamp, Gomis collapsed during practice with the France squad. He was out for a [...]

Have Lyon Gone Batshit Crazy?
By: Inara | 53 Comments
It was bound to happy eventually. I don’t know about you guys, but after the embarrassment of last season’s finish, I was dreading the oncoming ~dramah~, :tearz:, and angsty soap operas from the players and the staff. I was expecting a meltdown of epic proportions. I thought that the sky would fall.
Which sorta happened, [...]
Newsies For This Week

I plan to post a much longer entry tomorrow about Lyon’s winter transfer season (or lack thereof), but for now, here are some other things that I wanted to mention that don’t deserve their own post.
First off, it’s INTERNATIONAL TIME!!! That’s good news and bad. Good because some players get some rest, bad because [...]

Sort of, anyway.
Alain Perrin took over management of St. Etienne last November, after the last derby that took place in August. Today will be bittersweet for him because he won more trophies than any other OL manager (four), led the squad to their first ever domestic double, and despite a horrible injury crisis, was a [...]
Just a depressing post, really.

First things first, the last few weeks have been very hectic in my “real life” because I’ve fallen behind in my research, and as a doctoral student, my adviser is not happy with me, which is why I’ve had to take a vacation from the soccer blogosphere. So you can imagine my disappointment that despite [...]

Oh Jean-mimi. How you love to find new ways to make people hate you (outside of Lyon, that is).
This morning, in a rather long interview in which Jean-Michel Aulas touched upon various subjects such as Laurent Blanc, the title race, and Hatem Ben Arfa, he also spoke about his regrets at being unable to [...]
L’OL = LOL
By: Inara | 15 Comments
If any of you read my match preview of yesterday’s Coupe de la Ligue game against Metz, you can see that I was expecting a comfortable win for my team. Not champagne football, but a solid, no-nonsense victory. But it turns out that I, along with the entire squad of Olympique Lyonnais, am now being [...]
Fred’s Latest Hissy Fit
By: Inara | 15 Comments
Fred was very pissed yesterday when, as he was walking off the pitch during a substitution, he was booed rather voraciously by the home crowd at the Gerland. Sayz Fred:
“It’s very difficult. Every time, it’s the same thing – the fans are angry with me and whistle at me. When the team draws or loses, [...]
