What some bloke in the pub told me aboot FITBA!

Um.

I couldn't find the football talky part of this forum. Granted I went down Nick's route of looking but didn't get as carried away as him (23 seconds! Some of us have time to burn!) and just decided to start one here.

I kinda just wanted to poke fun at Robbie Keane.

Keane vows to end Liverpool title drought

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

This post has next to no chance of biting me on the arse in 10 months.

How much did they pay for him??? £20.3m, thats nutballs. There is no way he is worth that.

He's proven goalscorer and creator in the Premier League, even if he is a bit of a tit. 20 million seems right, especially because Tottenham weren't gonna let go of him easily. Like, Anelka is worth 15m, Keane is worth 20m easily.

Good luck ending that title drought, cap'n. He'll be cartwheeling his way to 3rd or 4th along with the rest of them.

Note to Andy or anyone else aghast at the money and use of the word "worth" in this thread: the the football transfer market is a parallel, disturbing universe.

I would have though more like 15m for him. He is 28 and he is on a 4 year contract, I don't know if he going to last another 4 year at the level hes been at.

Chelsea's spending (and United's to a lesser extent) has changed the market, though. Even 2 years ago I'd have agreed with you, but players just cost more now. It's costing 5m just to buy Championship strikers these days.

Ronaldo says he is staying for this season. Hoolay!

For one more year...

Hey shut up you sum'bitch...

This is his interview with Publico.

Wow, the Olyroos sucked bollocks and they were REALLY lucky
to get away with a draw and the seven news portrayal of the game was sickening.

How did seven portray the game? I only watched a bit of it but it seemed like they were just showing the footage. ?

No, there news highlight package thing. Apparently we did no wrong.

Oh.

Dang that game was boring.

I was very tempted to not make any more replies at all, ever, so as to keep my '666' for all eternity. But I had to say this: I believe the olyroos game was part of the olympics, and it was before the opening ceremony. Indeed.

hmmm, maybe I should have created a new profile...

Yes, it was, you were right. I was gonna call you and tell you, actually.

Damn straight. Chalk that one up; I'm sick of always remembering when I was wrong, so remember this!

I hate Barcelona. They won their court case to to take Messi back to Catalunia and THEN LET HIM STAY AT THE OLYMPICS!
I think we're boned, yep, we're boned.

As I said in Mr Car - what an awesome use of legal funds and court time.

10 mins to go. 1-0 to Argies. I'm still hanging out for the whole Argie team to fall over and the Aussie team to walk one through, like that Aussie ice-skater dude. Then for them to do it twice. C'mon Australia.

*crosses fingers*

I believe the phenomenia is called a Bradbury.

Ah, that's right. But there was no Bradbury last night. Shame.

Oh well, this song should cheer us all up,

Dang me, dang me...

Macherano: Liverpool player, at the Olympics rather than playing for his club
Messi: Barca player, at the Olympics rather than playing for his club
Tevez: Man Utd player, playing at his club because it's a proper fucking club

Wow, your on your high horse. Liverpool is just as much a proper club as Man U.

Yeah, and they must be serious about winning the EPL, letting Masch go to a 4th rate international competition as the league kicks off.
