Footy Speak

Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of updates! I’ve just come past a very funny blog post on another blog. Feel free to read it below, or visit http://www.theda.co.uk for more of the same. That site now lies in my bookmarks folder!

The FA hailed their new ‘Golden Manchester United goal’ policy this morning after Michael Owen scored four hours into injury time allowing everyone to get back to work on Monday and spare the Old Trafford club an embarrassing home draw.

Man City manager Mark Hughes thought the new system was flawed and ‘extremely f***** annoying’ but United boss Sir Alex Ferguson insisted the laws were beneficial for everyone associated with his club. ‘No one wants to see a draw, and while everyone would probably rather see us lose that just doesn’t sit well with me I’m afraid, and let’s face it, you don’t have Sir in front of your name do you?’

‘This new golden goal things works terrifically well. It saves me having to give a constant ear full to the forth official because I know the game won’t finish until we score. It’s incredibly refreshing.’ Fans have been advised to take at least a week of holiday leave for the Man Utd Chelsea clash with officials saying ‘bring a bed pan, and plenty of tinned food.’
