Watford Beats Leicester

The moment underdogs Watford beat Leicester to go to the Premier League finals ….. priceless.

Oh, there’s more ….

Fabrice Muamba Suffers Cardiac Arrest

Thoughts and prayers for Bolton Wanderers player Fabrice Muamba who suffered a cardiac arrest on the field. Players and 36,000 fans watched in horror as the midfielder collapse during the first half of the FA Cup Quarter Final between Tottenham Hotspur and Bolton. He remains in a critical condition in hospital.

Psst In a sign of respect Aston Villa have agreed to Bolton’s request to postpone Wednesday’s match.

Soccer Player Linked To Famous Deaths

Oh dear, Arsenal soccer player Aaron Ramsey has been linked to some very high profile deaths. Seems every time he scores a goal, a famous figure dies within a few days. His last four goals have resulted in the death of Osama Bin Laden, Steve Jobs, Ghadaffi and  Whitney Houston. Hmm, luckily he doesn’t score that often!

Black Day for Football

Soccer just hit a new low after a football riot in Egypt  left 73 people dead and at least a thousand injured. Things got ugly after Al-Masry had a rare win over Al-Ahly , Egypt’s top team. The moment the final whistle blew Al-Masry  supporters invaded the pitch and began hurling stones at the players and fans of Al-Ahly. The violence that followed has left the sport’s world stunned. Hmm, that’s why we should all play badminton.

FIFA is a Farce

All I can say about Sepp Blatter’s FIFA re-election is, what a disgrace. With only his name on the ballot and corruption claims placing Qatar’s 2014 World Cup in jeopardy, it seems Football has reached a new low. Alleged blackmail threats, bribery allegations, money changing hands under tables hasn’t stopped Batter from retaining the top position in World Football, with not one single soul willing to contest him. Surely there must be other people wanting this role? Which makes you wonder why only his name on the ballot? Blatter had allegedly told the team bidding for England to host the 2018 World Cup that he would “only support their bid if the Falkland Islands were handed to Argentina.” True or false these allegations, the least FIFA could have done was delay the vote until all these corruption matters had been resolved. Now you have an enormous question mark hanging over the integrity of the sport and for that you should be ashamed.

Michael Jackson Statue Controversy

OMG, Mohamed Al Fayed has really showered himself with crazy this time. The ex owner of Harrod’s and owner of the Fulham soccer team has erected a statue of ….wait for it… Michael Jackson, outside the football grounds. Some fans are bemused while others are appalled at the 15 ft, £100,000 statue. One fan said “We’re a laughing stock” . In response Mr Fayed said “If some stupid fans don’t understand and appreciate such a gift they can go to hell” or “Chelsea”. Michael evidently attended one match as a guest of Fayed a few years back. Hmm, Michael Jackson is to soccer as Charlie Sheen is to losing!

Psst I suppose it’s better than being erected outside a kindergarten.

Grow Up!

OK, here’s the thing Julious Javone Threatts, pretending you are 14 so you can join the Tampa Bay Youth Football League and Tampa Middle school is so High School Musical. You are 21 for goodness sakes! Threatts, who used the alias Chad Jordan, did it because he wanted to play football (hmm, must have been crap to want to play with 14 year olds). Evidently he was pretty good at passing as a 14 year old  as the coach told police, he acted more immature than his 13 year old son. His ruse came to an abrupt end when he tried to register for classes at Tampa Middle School with his fake id. Now Threatts is in jail having violated his parole for burglary and earning a string of new charges.

Psst In my day it was 14 year olds wanting to be 21!

Russia Set To Win The World Cup

In a recent poll 8% of Russians believed their team will win the World Cup. Psst, they didn’t friggin qualify.

Kim Jong Il Angered By Nasty World Cup Rumors

Kim Jong Il would like to set the records straight, North Korea has never played or ever lost to a football team from Portugal and are offended by suggestions they lost 7 nil. North Korea looks forward to meeting Argentina in the finals and are confident of a resounding win.

World Cup Leads To Murder

Hmm, it was bad enough that Australia got beaten by Germany during the World Cup but imagine a man getting killed because he wanted to watch the game!!! Not friggin worth it my friend!!! David Makoeya, from a small village in South Africa , was desperate to watch the match but his wife and two kids  were equally desperate to watch a gospel show.  So it was no surprise that  a fight broke out over the remote. However, as a last act of defiance, Mr Makoeya changed the channel manually , which in hindsight wasn’t a good idea because his wife and kids beat the crap out of him. In fact they ended up  killing him! Hmm, well there goes Father’s Day.
