The Official Amazon Football Thread - Third Round

RIGHT HERE WE GO!

Come discuss football and other sports like proper rugby and fisticuffs! Slag off the refs, divers, and international football! Fabricate some stories about transfers! Make some joke about my supposed penchant for the non-opposite sex! And other non-gaming frivolity.

Who've we got in our merry bunch?

Firstly there's myself, Ryan, a United supporter who lives in Portsmouth but comes from Wigan. Despite not actually going on Twitter that much I do like a good hashtag. Footballing mancrushes have drifted ever younger from Wesley Sneijder to Shinji Kagawa and now Christian Eriksen who is most definitely a winger and not an attacking mid. I also like rugby league and F1. And pies.

Second on the little spreadsheet I've got for the predictions is Rich, all-round nice guy who supports Arsenal. Absolutely detests Gervinho and the lack of technical ability in English players. Also isn't fond of Rooney or Walcott.

We then have Dave who tells us he can't post all the time because of work but it's really because they only turn the internet on for an hour a day in Kendal. Supports Chelsea and comes up with nicknames for players whose names he can't pronounce. So far we've got Ivan Ivanovic and Dave Azpilicueta, just waiting to see what he comes up with for Mata and Cech. NEVER WATCH YOUR TEAM PLAY WHILST IN THE PRESENCE OF DAVE.

Stew used to be a regular but now only really pops his head in to make predictions or gush over Raheem "Enough Kids to Field a Team" Sterling or Luis "Swan Dive" Suarez. Also offers his views on the fitness of varying women.

Bri's the intellectual of the group, he reads books about football and everything! He's the first Geordie I've met who doesn't support the Toon, and instead defends Liverpool to the hilt and is slowly but surely trying to change public perception of Suarez. It's worked on a few people so far and at the very least I don't consider him racist anymore.

Greggles is a happy chappy who's always up before the crack of dawn due to his job, can't understand half of what he writes but I get the idea he supports Hearts and to an extent Liverpool. Has a family member who is available on a free should your Sunday league side need a keeper, so give him a call!

Tom, or Waxy, supports the rubbish sort of rugby because he's Welsh but I let him off with that because he's a fellow United supporter. Recently revealed to be even more blinkered than me and doesn't rate Anderson though. The day before a match an entire page can be taken up with us predicting line-ups.

Mick is Bri's brother and supports Newcastle. Loves Ba, Cisse, Shola, Ben Arfa, Da-vee-day Santon, and pretty much anyone else in black and white. Also likes to place a bet, and recently won a small fortune on Chelsea-United.

Will is another Liverpool fan who used to post a lot but doesn't post that often nowadays. Much of what can be said about him is better left unsaid but we'll just say he's Welsh and has very particular taste.

Aaaaamoooooood comes all the way from India and supports Real Madrid, or rather Kaka. Speaks better English than all of us and recently took a test to prove it, and due to time difference usually posts before even Gregg! Remarkably thinks Mesut Ozil is better than Phil Jones and also supports Arsenal when watching English football.

There's also Nessy, another of the Jock contingent who supports Celtic! Ever the optimist, will always fight a Celtic's player's cause and also has strong feelings about Celtic playing in England. Scottish Football lol.

Lill's another of the likable well-read sorts. Lives in London and supports Leicester, he provides a neutral viewpoint from which to slag off various Premier League. Helps me perpetuate certain myth but he sold me an Xbox for a tuppence so he's alright in my book.

Bozz lives in Huddersfield and supports Huddersfield, most likely to be found teary-eyed at his shrine to Jordan Rhodes. Also likes a bet and we hear he's a handy keeper as well as being the next Phil Taylor.

Mike's another one of the lads who support their local team, and he comes from Shrewsbury. He's commendably been to every Salop game this season and will carry on doing so I believe. Doesn't like clubs spending money and thinks Pompey should be banned.

There's also the two Spurs supporters, Si and Andy, who, while being decent on SoccerManager, do have their faults in the real world. Si's only just heard about the signing of Jurgen Klinsmann and Andy doesn't predict the football which actually makes my job easier but I'll still hold it against him.

We've also got Clark who often comes up with an alternate view to the rest of us but to be fair to the lad he backs it up! Scotsman who supports the Toon.

To round out the Scottish contingent we've got Bally who's having a tough time of it at the moment as a Rangers fan. Midfield enforcer in the FIFA club and genuine beast of a man from all accounts, go easy on him eh?

And finally we've got Stimpy, who's another United fan. Doesn't post often but I know he'll have a go if I leave off here again!

Hope that's everyone, and if I've forgotten you, do one.
