Re: NSR/Off Topic #5
Thats gonna be brilliant...what countries are you looking at travelling through?
When I finish school next December I'll also probably be travelling through Europe, mainly to watch alot of football matches and stuff (  )...no matter what league, just not the English lower league.
Probably Spain, Italy, Portugal and more. Hopefully I could watch alot of the main teams in those countries because there are often open seats in matches.
Money spent on football matches is never wasted imo because you're unlikely to forget the experience.
Pretty boring day I've had. I woke up this morning and looked in the corner of my room where all my boots are and was like 'Woh, I've got Copa Mundials!' and then i realised they were my indoor 7406's. Isn't that just fascinating.

Re: NSR/Off Topic #5
Can I just say that I love sunday league!!
I decided to go and watch some of the games at the local playing fields by my house. OH MY GOD THEY ARE CRAP!!
I was watching one team where the ref was struggling to control the players who were contantly abusing him. In the end a fight broke out and even the ref was throwing punches! It was so funny!! hahaha!!

Re: NSR/Off Topic #5
Haha, sounds like the veteran team at my club. One day two teams were playing against eachother and the guy sat down on the ball in the middle of the match and started pulling weeds out of the ground! The opponent came and kicked the ball out from under the guy and then a fight broke out!

Man you should have seen our first half today, we were pants. I have absolutely had enough of my MVIII's, they STILL haven't worn in. Anyways we were playing the most pants team in the league, and long story short we were 3-0 down at half time...so annoying. Plus I had two mega-blisters cos of my boots and I absolutely blew my top (not very good as captain). I told the team in no uncertain terms that if they didn't want to win the match they could ******** off home now because I'd kick their arses all the way if I caught any of them slacking second half. I'm actually glad to say, despite the blisters I scored and we pulled the game back to 3-3. They had a player sent off for literally stamping two-footed on our wingers' chest - I punched him but I knew the ref so he didn't "see" it (besides he deserved it the bastard).
Then came the moment of madness - I sent our striker (who had already scored once) clear through on goal. he left the defender on his arse, rounded the keeper, had two people to pass to, and as he shot the fattest fcuker on the pitch ran back, dived in and somehow scrambled it out for a corner! He headbutted the post and picked up a concussion for his trouble, but considering he weighed at least 20 stone, it was quite unbelievable! We were all over them for the last 10 minutes, but I suppose as Arsene Wenger would say, when you're that far behind so early in the second half, you've got to be happy with a point I guess...

Re: NSR/Off Topic #5
Yeah but you shouldn't be that far behind in the frikin start of the second half! Sorry, still very p'd off about yesterday's match!
I don't blame you for cr@pping all over them, I hate it when you put in your best effort and other people let you down...thats why I would love to play in a position like Flamini...I love just running around and getting stuck in and then playing some nice balls through, although I do love running down the flank.
Sain1, I'm getting V1's for Christmas...nothing else. Maybe my parents or sister will pay for the 02/04 Arsenal shirt with GILBERTO 19 I've seen availible. And you?
Which reminds me, Bigg, what name did you choose for your shirt in the end?
Woh, just watching Spanglish ATM, whose the actress who is the 'maid'?

Re: NSR/Off Topic #5
Think it's got to be Gilberto. I'm gonna order the player size printing n that and I'll heat press it onto the shirt at the shop down the road. I was willing to pay out that little extra just to make it 100% authentic
Leaning towards Adebayor now....
