Mr Wind Up Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 So the share price is more or less the same as it was prior to Moyes getting the job. Its understandable that the share price plummeted when Ferguson retired, but rose when Moyes got sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnM Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Following Giggs's press conference this morning it is clear, to me at least, that the managerial gig is now a poisoned chalice. Any potential managre now knows that he is going to have to deal with Ferguson's Midwich Cuckoos. A clearer and more disgraceful case of player power I have yet to see. Shame on them: Man U as it really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerjon Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I actually found that interesting. I might need help. I found it interesting enough to work out if I thought any of them were wrong. I think Newport's is based on Spytty Park rather than where they are now (Rodney Parade). I also love the rants from some of the Brighton fans on that thread. Makes us lot seem normal.

sigesige00 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 In my opinion, 11-player Football will decline and Futsal will become popular than 11-player Football. The same happened in Handball, 11-player Handball (100m*60m) disappeared and today "Handball" means 7-player Handball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrek Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 What is futsal? Sounds suspiciously made up...although I know it isn't Its the only form of five aside thats recognised by FIFA and often credited with giving Spain, Portugal and Brazil football players far more technically competent than ours on the ball, but this probably explains it better than I can. Speaking with a specators hat on I find it an intriguing game to watch can go through slow spells then bursts into life, players roll on and off in a 12 man squad so everyones always "fresh" and restarts and keepers time on the ball is strictly kept to 3 seconds and the clock stops when the balls out of play so its 20 minutes of actual ball in play time each half. The English comp is just reaching its final stages with "Super League" under way which sees the top teams in the regional leagues grouped into national leagues with the 4 group winners having a play-off weekend in London. Then there's the Futsal FA Cup at the "Copper Box" in June to look forward to. Seeing England beat Cyprus and Lithuania in Lithuania last year in the European Championships was one of the best sporting spectacles I've witnessed in the flesh. Got a gig tomorrow photographing my first Ladies game at the Velodrome in Manchester looking forward to seeing how it differs from the mens game.

Got a gig tomorrow photographing my first Ladies game at the Velodrome in Manchester looking forward to seeing how it differs from the mens game. Futsal's rules are decided by FIFA. 11-player Football rules are decided by IFAB. This partially explains why Futsal rules are more logical than Football. And the number of a squad has been increased from 12 to 14. There is a problem in Futsal's rules. That is goal-throw. In Futsal, play is re-started by goal-throw unlike Football's goal-kick. So there must be a Goalie (Goalkeeper) who can use hands. For that reason, in the case of power-play (when goals are necessary, all 5 on-pitch players do offense like Ice Hockey's last minutes), there still must be a Goalie. Goal-kick should be allowed, and the rule that there always must be a Goalie must be abolished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
