English Football 2015-16 - Leicester City won the league - Page 566 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I like the way Sam feels he has to add the extra line that he in fact hasn't won the champions league in case we just assumed it was on his illustrious list of accomplishments.

I'm currently trolling Mido on Twitter, he has responded. Obviously I'm biased but I reckon I'm that far ahead on points that he needs a knockout to win. I'm kind of surprised that he has evolved to the point of having opposable thumbs so I dare say that isn't going to happen.

Djibril Cisse nicked in some sort of plot featuring a sex tape of an international footballer.

I don't get it really, most footballers in this country simply upload them to grumble sites to give their fans an insight about how they live their lives. Cisse and his mates are doing this for them, thereby saving valuable admin time.

I'm massively in favour of your mum jokes, but that was so poorly executed that it was basically this:

Next time he should just say "I'm loaded and got paid to be a footballer, so who's the ****?"

EDIT: He's 32?

If he never used emojis at the end he would have landed a better mum joke

And what were you referring to? 32 stone or 32 years old?

It's amazing that the match isn't called off. Also amazing how much money came in late on Ecuador.

[edit] so here's a random table that looks semi convincing: http://www.alltime-athletics.com/m_mileok.htm

the only* entries for 54 are Bannister and Landy
the only* entries for 55 are Chris Chataway, Brian Hewson and Láslzó Tábori

(*unless my searching failed some way)

It's a core academic text for sport psychology, so I'm inclined to think their claim had some merit, but it obviously by no means proof.

When my $2 million comes through due to the estate left to me by a Nigerian prince you will be sorry. The £10k I've sent him will be a pretty good investment.

Infact my area is a hive of wigan players over the years. Henri Camara used to live in my close. Mohammed Diame used to live on the estate, often saw him running. Franco Di Santo was always in the local DW gym (Dave Whelan tight arse lol)

Could have gotten you a signed ball Baids

I think Mido got paid a grand a week when he was playing for us. He was still stealing a living at that price.
