Which is what Steve McClaren's been saying for years. What will be his excuse as England manager?

Ye all make the ugliest jerseys, me like it.
Certainly a good way to bring the morale down.

I tried to make the ugliest shirt possible. I tried to mix Hull with Brighton. The man, not the team.

I think Pops picked the ugliest combination. I think mine is rather dashing. If a tad over the top.

I thought it was quite amusing, folks' attempts to make the most mixed up garish kit possible. Lots of purple and yellow in evidence.
I couldn't, actually, be arsed expending the necessary anti-aesthetic brain power.

Purple and yellow. Exactly. My entire kit is purple and yellow.

Vennegoor Of Hesselink? I don't care who he is or if he'll play, but he's in just for the stupid name. I'm in at £74.5M, Oh and the object is to finish bottom isn't it?
The kit is a variation on the yellow theme, it includes Blue and Black.

I wanted an African backline, but Cameroon aren't in there and it's no fun without Rigobert Song.

I'm in for 90m I think. I thought the point was to finish top? Ah well, I may just fail with that one.
I didn't bother to look at the rules on transfers. Can we do any?

Vennegor von Hesselink will be familiar to people who read the Bongo McPantfish thread, Coffs.
Or non-senile people who read it, anyway.

Unlimited transfers before the start of the tournament, um... un-unlimited transfers before the start of each round after that. (2 or 3 or some other random number that sounds reasonable).
That Vennegor von Hesselink bloke was mint in CMsomethingorother as well. 0001 probably.

Anything that comes out of Hesselink can't be good though. Jammy bostords.

But I'm assuming he came out of Mrs of Hesselink.
Is that the same?

She had a jammy fanny?

Might have done.
At some point in proceedings.
Highly irregular.
But then honey is a bugger to shift.

17% of people playing the game have picked Roberto Carlos.
In related news, 17% of people are idiots.

I won the unwashed's European Championship 2004 thingy, so all be warned. Or not, as that proves nothing, so the results of the WC 2002 unwashed thingy showed.

I still remember him whacking that cross that swerved in, then half the world claiming he meant it. Yes. Of course he did.

He lived for a while on that goal in Le Tournoi or whatever it was called.
Fair play to him- anyone that gets their own runup on PES is doing something right.

He's bound to score another like that soon, the law of averages says so. Probably.
I can't remember who I picked now. :cab:

Brixie. I almost picked Cristiano Ronaldo, but realised I couldn't live with even a tiny part of me wanting him to do well. At anything. Ever.

Highlight of the 2004 finals remains Ronaldo crying at the end.
If he could have been crying over the shattered dead body of van Nistleroy, with a cactus wedged up his pantfish it would have been better.
