    Saving their energy for this competition, I'd imagine.

    Which is good. It's their best chance of winning a trophy this season.

    I'd be interested in knowing which the Basque fans would prefer to succeed in.

    I know which I'd favour.

    Great final 30 minutes from Athletic, they weren't at the races until that though.

    How come they're so poor in La Liga but doing brilliantly in Europe?

    They look like world beater when they get going, absolutely brilliant to watch. They should be 3rd in the table at least going on that, why aren't they?

    How on Earth can they have lost confidence though? Surely after destroying Man United over 2 legs they would be on top of the world?

    Godknows mate on the weekend against gijon missing a penalty poor passing and conceding a a cheap goal. They have had a few tough games against athletic Madrid a Malaga as well. Looked like it was going to be another poor performance until the last 15,20 minutes it was encouraging hopefully this will give athletic a boost.

    Wondering about my hole getting mustarded
    Would love to see them win something really would. Not that I'm much of a fan of theirs but their support is immense. I'm a member of a forum of theirs now that I think about it. * if I can remember my password but.

    It's called Aupaathletic forum or something like that if anyone's interested...
