Does there be football on of a Thursday night?
He lost his aura when he got rid of the glasses
Helmuth suffered an aneurysm in his right arm shortly after that European final which effectively finished his career. There were rumours that the aneurysm was caused by a beating inflicted by Ceaucescu connected heavies. It was alleged that Valentin Ceaucescu who ran the club was jealous of all the attention that Duckadam was getting. There was a story printed in the Irish Times (I think) that he was beaten up because a Real Madrid fan sent him a Mercedes and he refused to hand it over to Ceaucescu.
Duckadam dismissed all these rumours as fantasy.

This Caeucescu family sound worse than the Glazers.
The bould Helmuth was five weeks after his 27th birthday when this photo was taken.
Duckadam was an ethnic German, a Banat Swabian to be precise. The Swabians migrated to Banat in the 18th century after the defeat of the Ottoman Empire and the flight of Muslims from the region. It was then the least densely populated area in Europe. Intriguingly some Banat Swabians chose to stay in Romania after WW2 and as Romania eventually chose to follow a less severe policy of repatriation, those that stayed weren’t forced to repatriate to Germany.

What could possibly go wrong?
ICONIC.
Although it would be Liverpool v Ajax

You’d fear for Ajax in that scenario. Imagine the amount of goals we’d suck in

Liverpool have the weekend off to get their shit sorted.
During this one you’ll be like a Daily Mail reader who was told that paedophiles are the natural prey of immigrants.
Apparently
“The death of the 96-year-old British monarch is set to lead to a period of national mourning in the United Kingdom, which could last 10 days.”
10 days 
Just saw that in a group chat. Is there a genuine chance of this? Jesus it would be some treat to witness a Liverpool Champions League game in the Aviva.
Instead of having Wolves (H) next in the league though we now have Chelsea (A).
