The 2015-16 World Fitba Thread!

Noo, ah agree Billeh.

That kit is an ootrage.

 

Largest soccer attendance in U.S. history.

109,318

 

Just back from the boxing finals at the Hydro. The good: it turned out we had lightheavyweight, cruiserweight and heavyweight finals as part of the event whereas I thought we only had the welter and middleweights. The bad: we had to stand for the english national anthem 5 times :: They just about cleaned up.

Highlight: the young chap from New Zealand started to cry during his anthem and everyone starting to cheer wildly which made him cry even harder and bow and blow kisses to the crowd. I'm definitely getting old, sentimental & homosexual because I could have had a wee moment there.

 

Are they sponsored by McDonald's?

 

:giggle:

"Try our all new McHaggis!"

 

McHaggis ::

 

Would you eat it to show solidarity with your Scottish brothers? :l3:

 

Not a chance in hell of me eating that:giggle:

 

I was just picturing a scenario.

You're in Glasgow getting on with the locals and one of them buys you a McHaggis thinking they're treating you to something very special. It's like inviting you into their family. "Go ahead, eat it. We go it just for you Mr. McDogg"

You start sweating, heart racing trying to think of any excuse you can make to get out of consuming it. They aren't hearing it though. "Please Mr. McDogg, do not insult us"

Somebody comes up with one alternative. You breath a sigh of relief.

The other option? Either you eat it or sing God Save the Queen at Ibrox.

:hut:

 

I think I'd sing!

 

:laughing:

 

:will:

LMKO @ sponsored ba McDonalds.

Haggis is no' that bad laddies, Ah actually like it and have fried, slice haggis alongside ma square sausages, drop scones and white pudding. It's just some chopped up sheep liver, heart and lungs mixed wi' diced onion, spices and oatmeal packed in stomach casing and boiled fer hoors, like. Ah thought Caligula widae loved eating heart from his ancestral roots... SEE YOU!

 

:::: OMG, the thought

 

::

 

Haggis is genuinely really nice, I'm a fan

 

I've never had it.

 

Get yer Haggis right here! Chopped heart and lungs boiled in a wee sheep's stomach! Tastes as good as it soonds!

 

Trivia time.

Who has won the World Cup, European Championship, Champions League and UEFA Cup? (there are 4 different players)

 

Is this specifically champions league? Or does this include the old European Cup?

also, does activity as a manager count?

 

If managerial activity counted, Beckenbauer has all of them

 

I was thinking of Zidane but it looks like he never won UEFA Cup

 

Just champion's league. (no managers either)

 

Damn this is tough... I keep coming up with guys like Xavi, Iniesta, Deschamps, Zidane, Alonso etc who have won everything EXCEPT the UEFA Cup

 

None of them are French internationals.

 

So it's got to be someone German, Italian or Spanish

 

Or all three :scared:

 

Actually it's got to be German or Spanish since Italy hasn't won euro since the 60s

 

I've got one!

juan mata

 

Yeah same, that's a tough one

 

Fernando Torres is another!
