The Funniest Thing I've Heard from a Footy Fan was in the pub last night.

A Liverpool Glory Hunter he was. He said something like this to his mate:

Glory Hunter: You know how a player can be shite at one club, and then move and be absolutely World Class somewhere else?

Glory Hunter's Mate: Well....that's gonna be Mascherano. Next season we're gonna win the League.....

To be fair though, those comedic geniuses over at the Liverpool supporters' club have been cracking that gem for the best part of twenty years now.

(What's that you say? Bolton have never won the title?.....I'll get me coat then.)

Mags reckon their "Inter-toto 3 bit, 10 pence" cup classes as a "major trophy". Thats canny funny.

From my Knobhead West Ham fan mate.

'Bolton are shit, at least West Ham play entertaining football'.

I promptly respond by laughing and pointing out that West Ham are going down.

Liverpool will get docked 7 points for fielding Mascherano, handing the last Champions League spot to Bolton, by half a point, after it was revealed that the Anfield pitch was specially fitted with a system that always meant the picth titled at a 30 degree angle in Liverpool's favour, thus all Liverpool home games which Liverpool won were chalked off and the opposing team given half a point.

I wouldn't say he is world class (yet) but Mascherano did to be fair look pretty hot last week. However, I would like to see him dominate the likes of Essien as opposed to Sheffield United's pub footballers.

Mine was in a lecture today. We had the most awesome lecture I'm ever going to have, on competitive balance in football. It showed how much clubs were earning, especially West Ham, and how much they'll be fecked when they go down.

Some guy speaks out in the lecture after the lecturer (a Liverpool fan) had a bit of a dig at West Ham's January signings. The student said

"But it's those players that are gonna keep us in the Premiership this season"

I actually stood up, turned round, pointed and laughed at him, and I didnt know who he was!

He's right, well they certainly entertain me!

Not really the funniest thing I've heard, but there was a Bolton fan on the Legends phone-in on Century last week who obviously didn't have a clue what he was talking about. He said something like "The game isn't the same as 10 years ago when Everton were winning the league every year." Embarrassing.
