not a big follower of the sport (no telly, maybe that's why), but I was asked to do this. 
and the following statement was given to me to bring forward:
ladygooddiva is crying because De Jong is leaving HSV for 20,5 million.
my work here is done, I leave this thread for you footie (soccer) followers

Cheers for the thread Emmi....but who, what, where?...DeJong?
All I know is the mighty Red Devils are on top of the Premier League for the first time this season
I'm just the messenger so don't who-what-where-DeJong me.
Sorry for the F1 reference, but I saw eMMi is from Finland.
Football - well thank gawd the Toon Army appears to have escaped relegation this year. What a disaster that club is! My poor hubby loves Newcastle and is gutted over the whole situation.
I too am glad to see Liverpool in 2nd. I sort of like Everton myself and at least they are on the top half of the table.
Come on scousers...don't make it too easy for the mighty red devils
thats my italian team
forza roma!!!!
oh, I hate them !
Fascists.
Who the hell is he to criticise AC milan ? One of Europes oldest, most decorated, respected and revered clubs.
It's like I win the lottery tomorrow and next week try and get a meeting with Bill Gates, and when he declines, I criticise his business credentials.
Man City......fuck me, the mind boggles!!!!!
i thought Lazio were the fascist team?
i heard Robinho has walked out of the Tenerife training camp.
Hughes wont be there next season... they need a big hitter and i think Mourinho will come in and bring his clout to transfers.
i think going for Kaka was insane, for that money, but also morally... they should be buying good/v.good players.... not World Class... build a team and take 2 to 3 years to gel it... not excpect 3 or4 superstars in a team of tedium to bring you the success... just look at the failed Galactico experience.
I saw renowned football journalist Paul Macarthy on Sky Sports news earlier....I think he read my post here about the Man City chairman
At the moment they look like a train wreck about to happen, a rich kids party threatening to get nasty and out of control. They need some class in the boardroom and the dressing room, I agree Mourinho would be the man for the job, but he's not about to walk out on Inter...he's building something good there. maybe 18 months or so down the line, until then they should build quietly and keep their trap shut.
yep.. they should build a team. not make themselves a laughing stock... oh wait! they already bought Bellamy .. too late

haha, well a more realistic proposition for them than Kaka ever was at this moment, but still.....£14M !!! Bit much by about £10M I'd say, that's what they face now everytime they go for someone, the price will just rocket.
Bellamy is a tosser btw, Welsh or not, he's a nasty little man with a big chip on his shoulder, if there's one good thing Joey Barton could ever do with his problem, it would be to smack Bellamy in the gob during a live on TV game
"whats it like to have no neck... whats it like to have no neck... you couldnt score with a putter, score with ahhh putter"
What are the first two?
6th best was Hereford United fans chanting at a long haired Darren Peacock, then playing for QPR.......to the tune of 'where's your mamma gone, where's your mamma gone?'..
"Where's your caravan, where's your caravan?"
and...another extra game for Liverpool
And, easy draw in the nest round for the mighty red devils
all in all, round 4 of the FA cup was a good round
Celtic
Lazio
Borusia Dortmund
Real Madrid
Hajduk Split
My teams!
Put the scousers on the top.
Put the city in the middle
And burn the f*ckin lot...
While it's not over things are looking good for Man United
Champions of England!
Champions of Europe!
Champions of the World!

He was never the class Liverpool needed, and £20M was a joke!
Shame he didn't stay
Man U march on
That is what a joke of a team do but I bet they wished they had him yesterday.

It's because they lucked half a dozen wins that they're even in the top 8.
Hopefully Gerrards hamstring will keep him out for 3 weeks or so, and even their arrogant, blinkered fans will realise how crap they are.
Maybe then they will fire the fat Spanish waiter who's picking the team.....actually no, let him stay
It's so frustrating being a toon fan at the moment (well since Bobby got kicked out really)!!

It's a tough time for you guys, even Shay put the boot in today
Tho, he was at pains to point out he wasn't including the fans in his side swipe.
Yeah, don't blame Shay one bit - he's been with us for so long and he deserves better.
There's a bit of a conspiracy theory going round that Ashley wants us relegated in order to then make money selling off the players with higher price tags. Can't see it being true though, as the money we'd lose just going down would surely negate any profits from sales of players.
He needs to spend money (and on the right players - Jesus Stephen Appiah still hasn't been signed up, he'd be great for us). Enough with trying to sign a load of midfielders too (although I know I| just mentioned Appiah - but he's free and damn good!) - we need strength at the back and up front too. I could go on and on! The thing is, how come it's so obvious looking at it from the outside, but no-one actually in there seems 'get it'??
Rant over - for now.
