If they make Serie B again I might even get RAI....although I think RAI only show 1 Serie B game a week correct?? Would all depend on what their coverage would be like but yeh as far as Italian football goes.....Pescara over Fiorentina any day.
this is definitely your greatest moment on this forum, GREAT POST!!!

1994 in a top of the table clash. Watched brum fans trying to cause trouble all day long and then run away outside New Street Station. I watched an old bloke near me get seriously hurt by a broom that was thrown from the upper tier. Basically spent 90 minutes dodging coins. Old joke that the ticket cost 15 quid, but I picked up 20 in change.

AND then I open up the newspaper the next day and the cum cunted slag dog from hell (karen brady) was blaming it all on Millwall fans, even the old bill were laughing at her telling her she was wrong.

She then produced a bomb that we had apparently smuggled in to blow up st andrews. SO can't bottle of shiraz stand the champagne.

In my incredible conquest of the world in FIFA 06, Pescara was the club I coached in Serie B, winning the Serie B and Coppa di Italia, apart from the season I had with Real Madrid where I won every single game in every single competition and won a total of 5 trophies Pescara was my next best as I also won every single game conceding 11 goals in all competitions and scoring 112 :lol:

I'd get RAI purely because I like football, I have to really think about it though because it's pretty expensive and considering I already have the platinum package and Setanta Sports, i'm not sure I want to go and spend another $30 on a channel per month BUT if Pescara were to get into the Serie B, i'd probably HAVE to, because my weakness is football and it pains me if i'm missing out on any of it.

of course he won't because I only deal with FACTS!!!

Does it not annoy others when man u are referred to by australians as 'manchester".

eg. i've been to bristols ground, but I've never been to bristols. I went first to nottingham's ground in 1993 but never made it to nottinghams until 1996. i went to manchesters in 1987 but didn't get to manchesters until 1998.

SEE MY POINT!!

Straight over your head mate. The whole post was a joke. Read my other posts and you'll see that I always refer to them as United.

Yes, (Im sure Australians aren’t the sole perpetrators though)
here is another example that frustrates me immensely

A: Who do you support?

B: Milan

A: AC or Inter ?

The difference here is the names of the two clubs are "Milan" and "Internazionale". Inter Milan is just an Englishized (I know that's not a word but you know I mean" terminology for Internazionale. Just like they add city names to other clubs (ie. Rosenborg Trondheim). Trondheim has no part in Rosenborg's name (full name: Rosenborg Ball Klubb), but they play in the city of Rosenborg. It's just like saying Arsenal London or Everton Liverpool.

Still, the things that annoy me more are retards who don't know how to list the home side first.

I do not know if they are the only perpatrators but they are the only ones I hear doing it. No Englishman would do it, I know that much.

As for those, I have always been told by italians that AC Milan are called Milan and Inter Milan called Inter. Is this wrong? Seeing as I'm not italian I have alwatys called them Inter and AC though.
