So I'm kinda slow. This suspension only affects international play, right?

c0rrine August 17 2010, 14:21:17 UTC

yes

ok, so much for optimism below.

IA. That's a looong time to be suspended from international play.

at least Anelka still gets to play (after 18 matches, that is) after all. i thought they kicked him out of the NT permanently.

nha_chi August 17 2010, 17:00:22 UTC

You know what, I thought they did too!

smea_chan August 17 2010, 17:05:34 UTC

but then again it's like a multiple life sentence. lots of people now think he won't make it :\

nha_chi August 17 2010, 17:08:33 UTC

yeah i don't think he will either, it'd take him out of qualifications for the euros and i don't think blanc likes him too much :/
too bad...i really liked him...
