    Mr Spy is just trying to impress. All he did was 'Google' British football and that was the first logo he found.

    Remember, we KICK our balls, and they THROW theirs.:D

    My family is in Rutherglen, my Mother was born and raised there, met my Dad when he was a US Marine in Scotland. I have family in Newcastle upon Tyne and as a "wee young lad", we would go for a visit. One of the highlights was St James' Park and a proper "football" game. I've been a supporter ever since.

    I am an American, yes, and proud of it, but I was blessed with being raised with very heavy influences thanks to my Mother. Hell, I have a tattoo of the Scottish flag on my left shoulder.

    And if I'd used the googles and British Football, would you not think a Man-U pic would have popped up first?:p

    No messing about with that tattoo

    You do not have to explain yourself, although as you probably know football is a bit tribal - and it is common to feel the need to have to explain a justification for such a tribal allegiance - unless you support Chelsea :D

    Introducing local team that plays in the English regional Bostik League, yes there really is a Bostik League - The Green Lions (attendance between 500-1000 for a home game)


    Hooooorrrraaaaaayyyyyyy !

    I know its only Wozza and me that like footie..............and Great Guy has his moments supporting 19 different PL teams depending on the results, but hey its a free world who cares, so just not going give this one a miss.................stuffing the plastic Mancs is nice, after years of watching putrid performances under BFS, Misery Moyes and the court jester Bilic, finally we are being managed by someone who understands what passing the ball between members of the same team means.

    OK OK, I hear you saying it, well it was only United and Jose forgot his bus and left it behind in Man Chester, and yep agreed they are a shadow of their former glory, but you can only beat whats served up in front of you and I will take that everyday.

    Arsenal ST holder here!

    It was/is hilarious to see the ongoing saga of Maureen at Man Utd.

    Good result for West Ham, at least those away supporters didn't have to travel too far home.

    Exactamundo my Gooner friend, Virgin West Coast didn't sell any day returns Man Chester to London on Saturday.

    Saw 2 muppets in the Home end before the game take off their jackets in the concourse to reveal their Manc tops and get a slap before they even knew what was coming, probably the first game they had ever been to.

    Things are looking up for West Ham at the moment and to be honest, they aren’t looking bad at all.
    Think Wiltshire might have a bit of a battle to get a place back?
    All I can say Being a Gooner is, how good it was seeing them not only beat Man Utd it’s but actually out play them too

    Well I am a home and away guy, so by default I am a pessimist as I see so much sh*te in a season, and one swallow so to speak does not make a summer, new month, new challenges, so not getting above my station, I honestly think Brighton will be a lot harder than the Mancs were, and for me I was more impressed with the performance against Chelski, twice the team the Mancs are and the key was starving Hazard of the ball, that point felt like 3 for me.
    Was drinking with a couple of Gooner mates Sat night who are STs and they are still not happy with the performances even with 5 on the spin.....come and live in my world :)
