Like i said, it won't happen. Robinho is there because he totally burnt all his Madrid bridges trying to get to Chelsea. Fair point, although Ronaldo might well burn his bridges with Man U before too long. Then again, if he thinks that his likely destination would be Man City, he might shape up! Re...

Little too much romanticism in that, blurred, though the underlying ideas of the article i share to some extent. I've stood on the Kop, though, in the 70s - and it was pretty terrifying, and vile, and piss-sodden. Tho, without doubt, high on adrenaline. The difference between then and now is caused ...

Platini was transferred only twice in his entire career and has never manager a club side. Typical Frenchman, likes the sound of his own voice. Racism? the french aren't a race, so no. Xenophobia perhaps, but it's the French who gives a shit, he could have added soap-dodging, sheep-burning, cheese-...

Exactly right on the wine - largest wine producing region in the world (I believe). And it appears that the Pyreneean peoples (Occitans, Catalans, Basques, Gascons, Andorans et al) have cornered the market on life expectancy. So you can always claim its medicinal! (And I'm a Fronton man myself) Fro...

Its based on Occitan (or was) William. In laymans terms a bit like Catalan (its where the name Languedoc comes from - literally language/tongue of the Occitans). Totally unfathomable, but not widely spoken. Some of the street names in Toulouse are still written in it, and the flag (again very catal...

Welcome Mario. You chose a Spanish name? Pourquoi? Porque? In Toulouse, we are used to say our "Païs" in Toulouse dialect, and my name is Mario MariodelPais : MarioFromCountry So 'Pais' is like 'pays'? Is the Toulouse dialect very 'strong'? What was the title of that very funny French film about th...

Interested in coming after Batty's suggestions about the brothel? Am in the middle of studentville off Smithdown Rd. Address is Wavertree but I'd say it's more Allerton. Only a few roads from Kevin Nolan in fact. I'll have been to all the brothels round there already; that was my old stamping groun...

He'll be killed and then his fat head will be marched around the place on a piece of wood. That's what will happen!

I read their ground was 28,000 capacity? Could of sworn it was larger when it was built... Stoke have consistently had higher crowds than us when playing in the same division. About 30% higher when we were both promoted from the '3rd Level' in 92-93. Despite them playing brutal hoof it football und...
