Will you be bringing this gem then?

I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air,
They fly so high,
They nearly reach the sky
And like my dreams they fade and die!
Fortunes always hiding,
I've looked every where.
I'm forever blowing bubbles,
Pretty bubbles in the air!
United! United!

Unreal signings.

BBC website: "In May, Kia Joorabchian, the president of London-based MSI, said: "Tevez will leave Corinthians if a team pays the contract's release clause, which is between £69m and £83m."

Somewhere here lies a gambool of great proportions!

How long does a season last and how many games have we played...

If you fancy a fun little wager, and are feeling deluded enough I will go up to $200 with you that we finish higher in the league this season(haven't made any bets on the football this season so I might as well start with a banker) or up to $100 we are higher on Christmas day(slightly more risky but I feel good about it).

Re: \"Soccer\" Brag
 
paul,

I'm happy making bets, but I'm pretty realistic, and I know that you're obv the favourites to finish avout us. If you give me sweet enough odds though, I'd be happy to bet.

At the moment, I've only got liverpool to not finish in teh top 2.

What odds would you give me that arsenal won't get in the top 4?

All the Hammer Fans are crawling out of the woodwork now, you won't even finish above Spurs.. let alone Arsenal!

That's so true! We poor people of europe who love this game only do so because we have no money. If we were better off then we would all play basketball instead. And eat 17 big macs every day. And become obese. And speak louder in public. And wear baseball caps when we are old.

But because as a continent we are essentially destitute, there is nothing else for us other than warm ale, crumbling houses, bad teeth, and, thank God!, the beautiful game.

so you deny the many third world countries that play soccer? oh rite i was talking about europe, wait, i never mentioned europe, ok moron. i'm talking about you know, latin and south america, certain areas of asia, africa, etc.

also europe is plenty obese.. remember you all have tons of american food brands? LOL.

I think if every country in the world plays futbol, it would be pretty impossible for the majority of the futbol playing countries to not be third world.

You really had something going there for a second though.

HAHA. Just being able to use the words 'logical' and 'fallacy' next to each other does not mean you are smart. Your argument is stupid. If something is the most popular game in the world, is it not a logical certainty that SOME (and by no means all) of the people who play it are VERY LIKELY to be from third world countries. The fact that football is played in South America and Africa is a measure of its worldwide popularity as a sport, not it's financial viability. Aside from sports like cricket and golf, most games can be played on a shoestring budget with very little equipment. Football just happens to have a far wider global appeal than all 'American' games, for no more deep-rooted sociological reason in my opinion than it is, well, BETTER.

LOL
