Haha, we'd all need bloody seatbelts if the stadium was like that!

Frankly I think FIFA have got it wrong. Kakuta did not have a legally binding contract with Lens, simple as that. FIFA are trying to say that it is legal in the world of football because they want to protect youngsters and the clubs that develop them, but that doesn't change the fact that actually, Kakuta's contract at the time was a pre-contract agreement and nothing more.

Exactly what I was thinking!

This is the right move for all involved. Sheva can go back to where he started to wind down his career, we get rid of his astronomic wages especially as he would have been about 5th choice, everyone's happy. Can't deny he had a good impact for us when he was here, but not quite what we had hoped given his transfer fee. If he was a £5m signing we would've have been well chuffed with what he did for us. But there you go. Good luck Andriy.

Premier League is always the most important, especially after having not won it for three seasons.

I think it just kinda slipped under the radar. Everyone knew we were unbeaten for ages, but I think it took a while before anyone realised how significant it was!

The big games will only offer 1 loyalty point, the little games such as cup games against minnows will draw 5. The idea being that the most diehard fans will make it to the less popular games and the most games, and as such are more deserving of big games at the end of the season.

What has him being a "gitano" got anything to do with anything?

No-one is indigenous to anywhere. England is a political entity. You can't say, for example, you're English because your DNA descends from the DNA of people present in what we call England 2000 years ago because England didn't exist then! It's all pointless. For me your nationality has to be based on where you were born, where you were brought up, and where your immediate and next to immediate family was from. Anything other than that is rubbish. I hope you don't think all British people use immigrants as scape goats by the way. That would be as stupid as those people that do.

That United might just go and get a record 4th title in a row.

Thinking slightly with my heart... Chelsea United Liverpool Arsenal City

I think if we've kept a player at the club long enough from a young enough age they can still qualify as Homegrown, so I think actually we may be okay, but I would've thought we'd include Mancienne and Hutchinson in any case.

When's the cut off point? 100 years? 1000 years? Could go back far enough, probably find my ancestors on the British side came from what is now Germany, being that those that populate Britain tend to descend from Saxons or Scandinavians, so as they were not from Britannia, am I German, or Swedish? Personally I think as far back as you need to go is grandparents as far as nationality is concerned. If your grandparents were all born in America/Australia, then you are very much American/Australian. You can talk about DNA and then we all get parcelled into European/Asian/African, but what's the use of that?

You're just jealous That said, she's not to my taste.

None of your parents born in Australia then?

You can't just say all conspiracy theories are false, it's likely a few of them are true.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here Terminator X?

I doubt he will be asked to pay it one lump sum... Or if he is, he'll have to take out a loan, won't he.

Hopefully he does well, he's a great talent but needs some games at this level.
