I have decided that I might support a football team. I am not quite sure which one yet. Does anyone have any ideas? And what does it involve? It needs to be one that is likely to win more often than not.
-
Your proviso rather limits the options. You're a London boy, aren't you, Mince? I'd go for Manchester United.

If he wants a team that usually wins its got to be Celtic.
-
He will not be a fan only ardent supporters follow home teams
That would be Berkhamstead Town in his case.
Or if a league team it would be Luton or Watford
-
You've lost me already.
-
Follow Kilmarnock.
My teams are Celtic and Man Utd, they have been since I was about 11 years old, and they tend to win stuff, which is good, but it attracts bitchiness *cough*Kettle*cough*, so I follow Killie as it's the closest pro team to my mum's in Saltcoats and I used to be able to get to Rugby Park to see them.

I think you should follow your Prime Minister's lead and become a Raith Rovers fan. Maybe some day you could even travel to Raith and watch them play.
-
If you decide to follow them I'm sure there will be dancing in the streets of Raith tonight.
-
Perhaps I should support the team that Tarks and Peepmaster are buying into. They might need a fan.

I drove through Raith - what a dump!

Well that should double the crowd

Mince, I invite you to follow MY football team, i.e. the team I will be coaching next season, namely Capalaba Bulldogs U15s which includes my son Ciaran.
The results will be posted every week on the Football Brisbane site and I will furnish the link to that site nearer the season kickoff.
There is a little story to this which might make supporting the U15 Doggies a little more interesting.
I've basically been given a poisoned chalice by certain luminaries in the club who want to see me fail.
I was told after I'd been nominated s coach, that last year's players were virtually all leaving the Club to follow the coach to another club, that because I wasn't a well-known coach I would be lucky to get more than six or seven at trials, and that those kids were unlikely to be good enough for the Brisbane Junior League (our version of the Premier League, but for juniors).
On the night TWENTY EIGHT kids turned up. Not bad for an unknown coach.
I was left to grade the kids virtually unaided (there are usually four or five selection coaches, the team coach normally just runs the session) and I had a huge bust-up with one of the senior coaches, a know-all who has had it coming for years.
He stormed off refusing to be part of the whole thing.
The director of coaching and I finalised the selection process on our own, and his face was trippin' him. He tried to persuade me to play the team in the second division, convinced we would get hammered. I said we go the whole way -it's BJL or nothing.
So there you have it -all the ingredients of a roller coaster ride for 2008, in your off season (mostly) so there's no clash with the games in Europe, and I can guarantee it'll be interesting. I will endeavour to get video footage up onto You Tube and I'll post photos and reports on my blog.

Cripes! That was just like an episode of Dallas.

Go go Go BULLDOGS Go
-
I'm in! GO, DOGGIES! (See, Peter? I already use their nickname. Ha!)
-
Yeah! Go, Go, Get away.... Bugger off you Mongrels. Go!

You've never quite grasped the concept of cheerleading, have you, Peeps?
(I've just realised this leaves the door open for "grasping cheerleaders" gags).
-
The gags might be a step too far, just spreadeagling them to the bedposts should suffice.
Just in case the internet police are watching, I'm talking about grasping willing cheerleaders who are over eighteen.
In case any big feminists are watching, I'm talking about grasping willing cheerleaders who are over eighteen stone.
