Liam Brady said this morning on the radio that Paul Scholes would be the most comparable player to Ball in the modern era, and I don't think he just meant in appearance. RIP.
In case you didn't notice, they were playing Milan tonight, not Liverpool. Why any bluenose would want them (and the Granny shagger) to beat Milan is beyond belief.
It was so like the situation that got them the free kick in injury time against us (was it Giggs & Finnan that time ?), any sense of an opponent at their back, and down they go and as sure as night follows day, the ref buys it. It annoys me so much.
In Croke Park here in Dublin, the shops in the ground are required to remove the top off any plastic drink bottles as they hand them to you, so that full (or half full) bottles cannot be thrown.
in work now after a good night out...........the game was pretty s*** though. Boca (he who loves Roy Keane) is still circling Cork airport apparantly because of fog.
I get in to Manchester airport around 1.15pm. As I have never gone via Manchester before, can anyone tell me if the train service from Manc Airport to Lime Street is regular and how long the journey takes ? Cheers.
Jeeezzzz, what a nothing story. Of course he still collects his salary ! What did they expect ? that he'd be on the welfare? As for anything over ?6m transfer fee, that Harry would get half. Nothing wrong with that. I'm sure the club knew that his value wouldn't be much more than that at the end of his time with us anyway.
