Anyway the problem with the English team is the Press, the English FA and the Manager, but only the Manager can be sacked . . . unfortunately.
The FA if you ask me. Brian Barwick is just a
dunce.

Vieira:
I hope you all remember the fact that English teams were banned from Europe for almost 10 years due to Hooliganism and it took them a while to readjust to being back in Europe.
Very good point.

They were doing great before the ban and there
was no way they could have come back to do
very well after 10 years in the wilderness.

Now they're back amongst the best.

No questions!

Maybe you meant the retirement ground for Zola, Vialli, Casiraghi and Gullit
Maybe.

Nothing new in that. Although Zola peaked
at Chelsea.

Figo is even using the Calcio as a "retiremet
ground".

I have a friend that didn't like football as well.

Then one day, I took him to Old Trafford! He
became hooked. He became more passionate
that I am.

Give supporting Man Utd a try. You'll love it.

Just listen to this song and begin to get the

Career10 Things I Hope To Do In The Next Few Years! by akinalabi(op): 1:55am On Oct 14, 2007
Hello everyone,

About five years ago, I made a note of the things
I'll like to do in a few years. I've done some of them
while I haven't done many.

I still hope to do everything and more very soon. I'll
keep trying. Don't laugh at some of them grin.

Here we go,

1) Visit Dubai (Have not done that)

2) Quit drinking (Have not done that)

3) Marry a very good woman (Have not done that)

4) Watch Manchester United at Old Trafford (Done that)

5) Be a guest speaker at the World Internet Summit (Have not done that)

6) Earn a living online (Done that)

7) Win a million pounds in football betting (Have not done that)

8.) Start my own business (Done that)

9) Go clubbing in Blackpool (Have not done that)

10) Write a book (Doing that)

Chei!

Looks like I've not done the things I hoped to do. I won't
quit though.

What about you?

What are your heart's desires? Have you fulfilled
them?

We Can All Succeed!

SportsJose Mourinho's Departure: Is The Premiership Less Exciting? by akinalabi(op): 11:59pm On Oct 10, 2007
Hello everyone,

When Jose was sacked, we all said the premiership
we no longer be the same, that it will no longer be
exciting.

On a personal note however, my interest, enthusiasm
and passion has not waned one bit since his depature.

And it's just a couple of weeks since it happened.

Did we over estimate his importance?

Shooting Stars.

I've watched over 100 of their matches

They give me nostalgic feelings when I
remember the good old days.
