DF Tavern

Yes Aqua Chan, cheer for the Americans. We'll ruin the world's most popular sport one way or another. With at least a draw against the Poles, our malignant ilk will procure ourselves a seat in the field of 16.

However, AC, if you must know, I've been a die hard football fan and player for most of my life even though I've spent all my time in the states. My words above are sarcastic although I'm sure there are many across the globe who shudder at the thought of our success in the sport.

Whew. Two paragraphs and no booze.

@ Ysh,

things is good. glad you enjoyed the message. I already got a jab back from Gwally.

You do mean in the stands, correct no??

@Mr Sleep: blood and death?

I'm sorry to hear that it's that serious....

@Yshania: *hug*

Good luck with England Saturday

@Ned :

@Aqua-Chan: South-Korea and Japan are good candidates for your support

lol! good for you! I tend to support the underdog too - except when England are playing them

Not always, i want Spain to win the World Cup, they are hardly an underdog

This WC has been thankfully free of too much hooliganism...maybe the cost of flying to the far east?

Not free of booze though

Wait a minute..Sleep, I thought you were being sarcastic about that blood and death thing!

I feel stupid now.

Oh well it was, lets put it this way, it is a lot like Braveheart. It all happened years ago, but Wales doesn't forget past injustice

Lets put it this way, as a country we have no actual power and are ruled over by our neighbours, we used to own a quater of England and they also steal all of out water...

As for Beckham, he is a muppet no matter what hair style he has

@Aqua Chan, oh i am sure you could find some good history books on it

I was being semi serious, i apologise to all concerned or being serious, i will stop and spam instead

Well, it *is* after five o'clock here, so I guess it's okay for me to become unsober (Look at me making up new words, and I haven't had a drink yet, either...)

Ned Flanders · Post by **Ned Flanders** » Wed Jun 12, 2002 4:18 pm

I think it is a great word AC.

@Sleepy - LOL!!

I am feeling generous, and everyone needs a hug from time to time - just ask Viv

@A-c - football is our national sport, and unfortunately a few teams are reknowned for attracting a certain type of supporter

Unfortunately (IMO) for these animals, football is an adopted label, something to fight for, these are not genuine supporters in most cases, just nutters who enjoy the hit of group hysteria

I have heard that gang fights have been arranged in their little underworld in advance of a match - that there is contact between rival fans to meet up...thankfully, this is not anywhere near as rife as it used to be.

Sometimes it happens that an innocent will find themselves caught up in the heat of the moment, this is the emotion that is involved. Just ask Cantona

@Ned LOL!

and FYI we used to have an American play for my club (Sheffield Wednesday) we rated him highly - you might remember him, John Harkes

@Omar - thank you

Ned -

You should make up your own book titled "Ned's Thesaurus of Made-up Words to Use in the Tavern". I'd be glad to help you out with it.

...who should have been sent to jail

@Gwally, damn straight

I may not remember much, but i do remember my heritige

@Sleepy - why not? he has never done me any harm

re Cantona - he is bad seed - amazing talent, but his actions that day were way over the top. Forget anything about genius, and consider Mr Unstable. btw - did you know it was Sheffield Wednesday that brought Cantona to the UK?? He got as far as the subs bench then we released him to Leeds. Wilkinson did not have the man management to bring out his talent (though apparently Lesley Ash did

) hence he is transferred after a bust up with Lee Chapman, and Fergie steps in. Now Fergie knew how to harness the talent of Cantona, even if the ego was a major test for him...

Ned Flanders · Post by **Ned Flanders** » Wed Jun 12, 2002 4:32 pm

Indeed Ysh, I know the name John Harkes, he was a pretty solid playa.

@ Ysh's Last Post-

Oh, jeeze...I'll stick with my Fantasy Football and Backyard Baseball with the three- and five-year-old, thanks.

Looking at the size of the DF Tavern and the DF Discusssion Part III, I now see how we spent our time in Part II.

LOL

Not yet, look at the menacing use of that poker

Now Fergie knew how to harness the talent of Cantona, even if the ego was a major test for him...

I must say Ferguson as a man manager always seems quite poor to me, i was not aware Sheff Wed had Cantona first, maybe if you had played him....

Whatever happened to Lee Champan anyway?

I think i am thinking of Lee Sharpe

I think i have found a sure fire way to kill spam, talk about Welsh history
