Finally the leagues are starting....if not all

Strangely the Swiss League has been going for over three weeks so far, so it was good to hear about some rather better supported (no offence Axpo Super League) games beginning this weekend. Today saw the start of both Ligue 1 and all of the Football Leagues. So finally the main French Sports paper, L'Equipe, can concentrate more on action and less on rumour. PSG started as though last season had never ended with defeat at Monaco (despite new signings Makelele and Giuly). The seven times winners , Lyon, begin their defence tomorrow, playing Toulouse.
Basel continued their scoring form with a 4-0 home win, maintaining their second place (with a game in hand) behind Aarau. Hopefully they can keep it up in the Champions League game.
Brief again tonight - too much red wine and recovering from the party last night.....
