Could've, would've, should've..... they didn't, couldn't, won't win that way.

Well, actually they probably would. The better team usually wins. Last week was just an exception. Everyone gets lucky sometimes.

I'm guessing you were one of the few people who think that Italy deserved to beat the Netherlands in the EURO 2000 semi finals.

Nope, I was merely making an observation about the TFC vs PRI game on the day. All the squirming, wriggling, prevaricating and excuses by TFC supporters aside (and I count myself a TFC supporter much of the time), TFC could not beat PRI when they really needed to. That is an immutable fact now. I hope they can pull it off on PRI's home turf but I am by no means confident it will happen.

This is true.

But I have a strong suspicion that my Islanders are going to beat TFC again tonight.

I'm not running smack. I'm just basing it on our CCL history at el JRL. We have beat clubs just at home at least as good as TFC (which is a good club).
