my first soccer game

[Advo]

im quite nervous, i dont know what to anticipate honestly

in about 6 hours or so an english team named arsenal will play against a spanish team named barsanowa or some shit like that (please dont quote me), i cant say what my reaction would be but pray for me that i pull through.

don't put to much hope on the team you are rooting for if they lose your whole day will be wrecked. But if they win you'll feel on top of the world

Club supporters caadi ma'aha all the way from the US eh

[Advo]

heres the thing, i dont know enough the teams nor concept of the game besides the obvious scoring shots, so it's strictly observation status.

and how do people choose teams and does the USA have a soccer team?

Dont ever scream 'offside' for the sake of it...you will have to explain why.
Dont talk about their kit, you will sound gay unless you want know when the new one is out.
Make it fun by playing a bet, non monetary of course...favours or humiliation is just as fun.
Watch it with as many people as possible...its homo when its just 2 guys...its more fun when more people are also opposed to each other's team.
Dont invite chicks who dont watch football, they will plan on ruining the game and attention seeking.
Learn how to pronounce Barcelona, this is a quarter final match...no joke ting.
Barcelona fans are racists...like most people from that city...but they support UNICEF instead of big money corps....you choose.

Could of not chosen a better game to be honest. Two teams that play the best football in the world. Watch out for messi, probably the best player in the world. Arsenal are lucky that barca are mssing xavi and inesita, the teams not the same without them.

Advo, mashallah...You finally discovered the wonderful sport they call Football Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And what a game to start with. Fariid, Fariid...

Let me begin with a few facts about tonights game. I think you're watching it through the states so the commentators over their will most likely ruin the experience for you but still....


Arsenal: English Club also called The Gunners or Gooners. Consisting of a youthful team with little experience but no how to rack up wins when their underdogs. Play the beautiful game how its meant to be played; beautifully. Wicked 1 touch passing as will as fluid movement all around the pitch. Have a habit of passing the ball into the goal but when it works out...its fantastic to watch. They're Underdogs because they havnt won a trophy for about 4 years, and for a club of their prestige, stature and past achievements in the world of football, this a woeful thing.

Managed by: Mr Arsene Wenger aka Le Proffesor. (No, he did not change hes name to fit in with the club). French man who has been at the club since 1996, second longest serving manger of an English club.

Main Man: Mr Francesc Fabregas. Plays in Midfield positon, also the Skipper/Captain of the club. Only 22 but has bags of talent.

On to the opponents- Barcalona

Barcalona: You dont reallly need to know much about them. Won of a lot of silverware. A guy called Messi plays for them. Short little guy, kinda good.

Tips: Look football is not hard to understand. The only thing you might wanna do is brush up on the 'Offside Rule', they're gonna mention it a few times during the match.

1 more thing:

COME ON ARSENAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Londoner, 5 years by the way.

In that time united have won 3 league titles, 1 champions league, 1 world club cup, 2 carling cups, 1 charity shield and 1 champs league final. Just thought i'd mention that.


Advo if your looking for a team to support, Man united is the one. Most successful club in recent history, had the same manager who delivers every season for the last 20 years. Have had the biggest names in club football play for them, basically they are the best.

lol@ Londoner

[Firefly]

Londoner:- Kinda good??

But Come on GOONERS!

Advo:- You gotta make sure you got somethin' to snack on, lol. Oh and be prepared to do a lot of shoutin',screamin' and jumpin'...and then to only turn around and ask the person next to you..why am I shoutin'? what's that a GOAL?! You might wanna have plastic cups of water nearby, i say plastic..'cause you might injure yourself..no sharp objects should be anywhere near you or others...

Btw, it's football..okay? None of that soccer ish..Lol..

[1_londoner]

Nobleman, Can you stop filling poor Advos head with insignificant info.

Advo: Heres another little thing you might want to consider before choosing which club to support. Right so theres this team called Manchester United, Theyve won a couple of trophies but theyre also popular due to having also the largest gay fanbase. Can you believe that? And we all know how you feel about those people soomaha.
