FC Basel May Make Europa League!

Last night Basel may not have had a realistic chance of making the second stage of the Champions League but at least this result sees them achieve their real aim of making third place and so enter the Europa League. Maybe they will get one of the English clubs left in that competition. However, let's hope the Seibi Keller gets the Kasekuchli back on the menu!

FC Basel Suffer v Roma

Tonight was the second home game of three for FC Basel in their Champions League group. After a wonderful 3-1 away win in Rome last time out there was a real possibility of Basel qualifying (most unexpectedly) for the next round of the CL. However, they came down to earth with a big thump despite dominating much of the game. Roma just had that little bit of composure and class (in players such as Totti) and took their chances to take an undeserved 3-2 away win and so leaving Basel most probably chasing after a Europa League place now by finishing 3rd.

German Level is High End B1 !!!

Am considering going and doing another fairly intensive German course as the regular daily diet of podcasts and local newspapers has got to a reasonable level but I want to get a top up, a turbo boost if you will. So firstly I needed to see where I actually am in terms of Academic language levels. Here are my results from the German test via Migros Klubschule online. It was a pretty good test as you continue level by level until it determines you have reached your point of no return!!
