  1. @ "Making substitutions early is not good."
  2. From Wiki: "The title "Real" (Spanish pronunciation: [reˈal]) is derived from the Spanish language where it is traditionally used by certain Spanish football clubs such as Real Madrid of La Liga. It is translated into English as "royal" and it is taken by teams that make the King of Spain an honorary member of the club." (Real Salt Lake's wiki) Oh, right, so the King of America is an honorary member. They have a relationship with Real Madrid IIRC.
  3. Isn't some American City called the "Salt Lake City"? I think I've just got this from a snippit of a song I have in my head after hearing that name. "The salt lake city's gonna set my soul, gonna set my soul on fire." Aye, it's a city. The Winter Olympics was hosted there in 2002 or something.
  4. I'll never stop to be flabbergasted at just how into detail Americans go when analysing stuff in sports.
  5. I'm annoyed how all the pre-match build-up seem to be about Beckham
  6. probably not but you can't go round calling LA galaxy as simply "galaxy". it's just not right. It's hardly as if there's so many other football teams with Galaxy in their name mind
  7. to do what......outsell turkish delights ? To beat Real Salt Lake. Edit: Oh yeah, I didn't even take notice of your joke before replying.
  8. Stuck £100 on Galaxy, returns £240.
  9. Would love to see East Stirlingshire get promoted from the Scottish 3rd division to the Scottish 2nd division and then to the Scottish 1st division before achieving promotion to the SPL and winning it like. Why? 'cause it'd be awesome if they did it all in four successive years. Also because it was a bit random, and I wanted to be a bit random.

  11. Looking forward to the MLS Final tonight. Come on Galaxy!
  12. Argentina will win it purely because when Maradona was a player, Argentina did shite in all qualifiers and just got qualified for the major tourneys. Then they flicked the "rape" switch.
  13. Good. Another body can't hurt, and he's had a somewhat half-decent career as well.
  14. I'm so fucking happy I forgot to put bets on this weekend. Woudl've been a massacre of any money in my wallet.

    Football pet hates

    You lose most heat through your extremities, ie hands, feet and head, therefore it doesn't really make much difference what length sleeve you wear since you don't lose much body heat through your forearms I always thought you lost most heat through your head (etc), because everywhere else was normally covered. Am I an idiot? Yes, that's true, but then come the hands and feet, and since the hands don't do anything during a football match (unless you're Thierry Henry), then one is often required to wear gloves, sometimes with short sleeves, but it makes no difference with the length of sleeve. The heat loss through the head thing is a myth. As a Canadian all things related to keeping warm are pretty high on the list of general interest topics. The only issue with the gloves is that your fingers will get cold quicker and it is painful. The strange thing is that with activity comes greater blood flow and the conversion of calories to energy has the side effect of creating warmth (hence the sweating). Warmth that is transferred through the body by the greater blood flow of cardio stimulation = warm hands. So if you wear gloves while playing sports you are a pussy. So sayeth the igloo dweller from the centre of Canada... Well you learn something new everyday, I always assumed the heat loss from the head was true. However, your hands clearly take a lot longer than anything else to get warm (if they ever get the same level as the rest of your body, therefore wearing gloves is perfectly fine, whether with short sleeves or not...

    Wrong, You go and pay good money to watch that week in week out. Wrong. I don't. Wrong. I meant, you go and watch that s*** and I'll stick to trying to watch teams attempt to play football. Wrong. I have no intentions of going to watch it, I am saying it's an effective tactic for these teams rather than just something which can't be classed as football. Wrong. I just wanted to join in. Correct. Wrong. Awesome. Banana Orange.

    If you're talking about the European CL, I'm actually all for the "lesser" teams having an easier go at qualifying themselves. Means more money for the smaller leagues, which can only be good for european football as a whole long term. Even if the "big" teams just mash the smaller ones 5-0 or 6-0 short term.
  19. Are you Babatunde in disguise? No, my mother would slap me silly if I used such grammar and profanity. Do we have another Nigerian Mag? I doubt anyone will get stoned btw, man. This is not Egypt, fans are civil. 'tis a joke man 'cause you're so passionate about your country, which is a good thing in my book
