Tony Pulis will be named manager of the USA in the coming months after he is exposed as the Leaker by the 7th century chinese prophecy 'Tui bei tu'.
Pulis has already had discussions with the Denver authorities to build a state of the art training facility in the foothills of the Rockies and its expected that all games going forward will be played at the Broncos stadium in the Mile High City.
Kevan will relocate to the States as his number 2, Pulis quoting the fact that Kevan has vast experience of US players in Latin America.
Rawlins to be his Press Secretary after an unsuccessful experiment of being a hippy.
There are, as yet, unsubstantiated rumours that little Ant has applied for US Citizenship along with 750,000 other Dreamers.

They just said on the tv that it was years ago in the championship.
Did I dream the win when Bojan was in his pomp?

Ive still not got over our last home game against these numpties last season.Two nil up at half time and, against ten men, Mark Hughes ably demonstrated a total football management masterclass in sheer incompetence, not only throwing 2 points away from a dominant position with the sheer stupidity of his substitutions to, very nearly losing all three. UNFORGIVEABLE,even now. I was home for that match and left in a filthy mood. Thank god I went to Rome the day after to cheer myself up.

He could do with a few fluke goals like Diouf`s got this season. In off the Thigh or a misplaced header. I see the Dioufster has you fooled like every other defender in the league. I guarantee you, every touch and effort on goal is disguised to make him appear out of sorts and vulnerable. If Mourinho was a clever as he thinks he is, he'd be smashing our door down.

This game sticks in my head like no other.
My mates car broke down just north of Sandbach, he never made the game.
Me and two others hitch hiked up the M6 and got a ride to Wigan from other Stokies. Grabbed a few beers by the ground as you do.
Game was a disgrace, Soaking wet & bollocks exposed on a muddy bank.
Back to the pub, random Rugby League bloke bollock naked cause it was his birthday. Got a ride back in Tony Greyโs van via the Salamanca and finished at the pub just up the road from the Ritzy.
A marvellous day out against adversity. We lost the game and a manager but I made some good friends that day.

My one and only time in a home end was away at Man City when we won.ย Christ I can't tell you how tough it was keeping a straight face and quiet when Mame put it past Hart.ย I was sat on my hands and my arms were visibly shaking. Never ever again. Bollocks to that, Iโd have gone wild and risked the bruises. Years ago it was done on a regular basis including at home just for giggles. Mind you, I was close to the poor bastard who got smacked & lost his eyesight at Wembley, so i suppose shit can go sideways quickly. No-one gives a shit about the away fan in the home end so long as they donโt win. I exclude the Shit, Arsenal (like theyโd dare) & Liverpool.

SJW is one of those old school players that you would hate to be up against.
He's going to rough you up a bit, close you down continually and whisper sweet nothings in your ear for 90 minutes.
He's a master at putting an average defender off his game and there are plenty of them in the Premier League. He served us well over the years and was one of the first names on the team sheet for both managers. Attitude, work rate and team ethic put together with a bit of skill.

Am behind with my homework and not had the time to work out how Switzerland, despite having won all nine matches in their group,are not yet sure to go through๐ด Come on Shaq! If Portugal beat Switzerland then they have far superior goal difference and the same points.

Mate, you know his family probably without realising. Larry's mate Patrick is his granddad and Elsie his great grandmother. Don't remember the names mate, might know him by a nickname, then again, Larry does know a few people about the place, I've know a few over the years but I've been away a lot as well Did you see the bit in the Sentinel? Haven't seen the Sentinel. The surname is probably throwing you, he was Christened Jack Harrison Giblin.

Which must give them a heads up at least. I've just checked and they're 80% owned by them. Vieira is the manager and will no doubt be reporting to their general managers who run the City Group and they will pass it on. As FM says the MLS will have the final say but if they can get him for 5/6m (a complete guess based on previous MLS fees), I reckon they could make a profit on that easy even if he doesn't make it there. It just makes sense. He was back in the UK at Xmas visiting family and was receiving treatment on a strain at Man City. You are correct Bayern, NYCFC and Man City are most definitely well connected.

Oh ok, he's roughly the same age as my lad and the name just sounds familiar regarding junior football around 10 years ago. I see he moved away when he was 14 so I may be mistaken. I (vaguely) knew a Jack Harrison that was on Stokes books as a youth, got released a few years ago, may be him you're thinking of. Mate, you know his family probably without realising. Larry's mate Patrick is his granddad and Elsie his great grandmother.

His dad's side are all still in Stoke apart from my wife who is here with me ๐ Plenty on here know his dad from playing football and the pubs up town. Oh ok, he's roughly the same age as my lad and the name just sounds familiar regarding junior football around 10 years ago. I see he moved away when he was 14 so I may be mistaken. He grew up in Bolton when his mum and dad split then left for the US at 14. He's never played local football in Stoke. He was in the Bolton then in the Manchester United academies.

They played on Christmas Day up to about 1960 in England I believe and in to the mid 70's in Scotland. I think the best thing about Christmas is its football, I hate the tyranny of enforced gaiety that is the 'festive' season and welcome any opportunity to avoid being at home! I love boxing day because it's as far from Christmas as it's possible to be. Football at night as well. My mood hits a rapid descent at the start of November. Grumpy old man. I'm with ya Joe, Boxing Day home or away has always been ace. That night game against Liverpool a few seasons ago is one of my favourite games ever and what a break from the niceties of Christmas ๐
