Meanwhile I don't start for another 2 weeks. Even then, unconvinced we'll actually get to play our scratch match tomorrow.

Got to play, but lasted all of 20 minutes. Cheers for that back .

Tottenham were ahead for about one minute at Filbert Street

The game? Or your match time?

Here's one for ya,

Christian Maldini has just captained the A.C Milan under 19's side.

He's the son of Paolo Maldini - Five European Cups and seven league titles with A.C - 127 games for Italy
He's the grand son of Cesare Maldini - One European Cup and four league titles with A.C - coach of both AC and Italy

Talk about having a family name to uphold

How would you feel if you were just a bog average footballer and don't make it professionally? That's the kind of stuff that destroys people mentally.

 

[moomba]

Just a bit of pressure. But didnt seem to hurt Paolo much. What a footballer he was.

 

[jd2010]

Both of those games were the only ones I could think of.

Trailed us for about 7 seconds

 

[Zidane98]

Cruyff junior really struggled with the expectation his father's name brought.

Eventually became known just as "Jordy" instead of "Cruyff".

In general very few kids follow in the footsteps of their fathers in their footballing careers.

Interesting how it is the complete opposite in footy where the father son rule is commonly used.

 

[Cruyff14]

I think Christian will live up to expectations, looked promising at a young age.

 

[Van_Dyke]

The game? Or your match time?

Match time.

 

[jod23]

He probably wont win as much as his Dad and Grandad as AC are shit now.

That was before October. The stat was since October.

He's turning 20 in June and captain of the U19s... while it is for this season, I do wonder what his prospects are for next season. You don't hear much about the younger Maldinis (Christian and Daniel). Defenders don't really fly until later on, but you would think he would've had some opportunities opened up even now with a weaker Milan team. I know he was on loan to Brescia, but he didn't really get much time there at all.

I guess we'll see how he's tracking on next season now that he will no longer be a U19.

Very, very worrying for Newcastle.

Very, very worrying for Newcastle.

I can't see Shelvey staying when they're relegated. He wants to play football and there are plenty of clubs in the PL who would take him. I doubt his contract is public knowledge, so revealing this info, credible or not, is just a way of getting clubs competing for him.

Apparently he's keen to stay.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Apparently he's keen to stay.

He has nothing to lose by saying that. The test comes when an offer from a premier league comes in.

Unfortunately I can't see Newcastle staying up now. You could ale most call it curtains if Norwich beat Sunderland at the weekend

Manchester United legend Alex Ferguson throws a banger after flops drop a clanger against Tottenham while watching the Masters

Former Red Devils boss was so angry with his team's performance that he threw his sausage sandwich down

SIR ALEX FERGUSON was so angry at Augusta when he saw Manchester United had crashed 3-0 at Tottenham that he threw his sausage sandwich down in disgust.

The former United boss was tucking into his bangers during a break while watching the final round of The Masters golf at the famous course in Georgia.

The Scot checked on his mobile phone in the VIP section to see the result of his old Red Devils’ match at Spurs.

A furious Fergie flung his half-eaten sandwich down on his plate when he discovered they had lost to three late goals.

An onlooker said: “He was looking on his phone when he suddenly threw his sausage down on to his plate in anger. He’d obviously seen the United result.”

Apparently Spurs were Fergies English club when he was growing up. Probably because we had some brilliant Scots playing for us when he would have been a teenager (Mackay, White, Brown etc). What could have been....

 

[typeclub]

mid table german clubs > Real this season

We shall know after the next match. They didn't get a big enough lead for me

What can't this bloke do? I'd struggle to keep the sausage on the plate it I "threw" or "flung" it down from less than a foot away...

 

[FAITH]

Yes you and Sozaberus get rekt today.

i actually won money on real winning the tie so not sure what your on about.

 

[Zidane98]

Yes you and Sozaberus get rekt today.

You only ever seem to appear after Real victories.

Can a Spurs fan explain your logo to me? I know everyone says it's a chicken standing on a ball but I assume there's some kind of meaning behind it?

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Something to do with some geeza called "Harry Hotspur".

Why do you have a fox? Is it because of the sexy football you play?

Is a chicken otherwise known as a Hotspur? Genuine questions btw, I want to know.
