The clock "only" runz [sic] from 2005.

Think of your favourite footballing prejudice, and you'll be, in the words of Europe, halfway there.

I hadn't got there yet but was just coming back to post this:

"could actually be played ManU in the cup but that'd be an awfully dull answer"

But what great imagination from the tv companies.

Yeah. Because it's not like any of the other clubs in the same earlier rounds could have used to TV money, is it?

Thinking "outside of the box" from Chesterfield chairman, Dave Allen -

http://www.chesterfield-fc.co.uk/news/article/20130129-allen-outlines-need-to-reduce-debt-626246.aspx

Quote
"There's a council loan of £960,000 with four per cent interest charged and they should give serious consideration to writing it off over a three to five year period, when you consider how much publicity this club generates for the town."


Yep. I can see how that one would be greeted with wild acclaim.

Mayhap I should try that by cancelling my standing order for couuncil tax, and then when SCC try to recover it, I suggest the "write it off over three to five years"?

Lest we forget: Harry Redknapp in December, "I don't want to spend the owners' money really. I've got to be honest with you. I don't want to see the owners have their pants taken down like they have in the past."

Samba £12m with £5m+pa wages, Loic Remy £8m, wages likely >£70k pw (as that's what NUFC were offering).

A truth universally acknowledged:

Half-scarves are wrong.

[Unless it was Villa v West Ham of course -

Strange to say this in an interview but I guess hes pissed off.

Birmingham City manager Lee Clark has dropped Nikola Zigic from his squad following a lack of effort by the striker in training.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21472201

Is Lee Clark getting stick from the fans for not starting Zigic Ian?
