Football!!

Post by Neil »

So what football team does everyone support? I realize that some folks here are from the UK, others from the US, and others from other counries - but say what team you support anyway (whatever version of football it is!) I don't know much about american football; but I have seen 'Any Given Sunday' :lol:

I support (for my sins) West Bromwich Albion!! Arrrggh.. we're almost bottom of the Premier league :cry:

In American football, I like the New York Giants. Don't follow sports as much as I used to.

Hibs got a draw today, 2 each with Livingstone. We were up by 2 up until the last 5 minutes and our defence just lost it.

I love football (the european version that is)! Too bad our local club VPS seems to be going bankrupt... :(

Even though we did make some money by selling quite a few decent players abroad, (Jussi Jääskeläinen for example, plays for Bolton nowadays).

How are Wiss & Paatelainen doing for the Hibs, David? :lol:

My favorite football team is the B.C. Lions. I watch the Canadian Football League. It's pretty much the same as American football only a few minor changes in the rules.

The Green Bay Packers, as far as American Football goes. I'm from Green Bay, and it's nearly impossible to live there without supporting the Packers.

Never got into soccer.

Paatelainen is doing great, all the fans love him. It's just Gary O conner gets the place over him at times, and Gary is rubbish and loses us our games.

Wiss i don't rate to highly, unlike paatelainines who's really good with headers he has no strong point and a lot of our fans don't like him. He doesn't make the first team anymore.

Although we are thankful for your players, scotland hesn't got a great history, every other country has better players, over the border they got Beckham :cry:
