The "Tottenham to get 10 yellow cards for simulation" one at 20/1 is tempting. Surely it happens more than 1 game in 4ish? I know they're getting at Bale leaving, but still.

Mourinho fired by end of August at 9/1 is ridiculous. Also, why is it West Ham players sent off for fighting each other? I remember the Newcastle one, but was there a similar incident involving West Ham that I'm forgetting?

I'd take a Holloway fine at 7/2.

Although I think that's a play on the fact he generally talks a lot of poo poo, but unlike Colin Wanker won't accuse the referee of being blind, a cheat, or a blind cheat.

I hope the number of Stoke blips nearby are just because they were in town for a friendly last week because otherwise that's just depressing.

edit: I wonder what kind of heuristics they're using to assign a tweet to a specific club, I assume anyone just referring to "Wolves" for instance isn't getting counted

Yeah I found Scunthorpe and Hartlepool fans seem to get about a bit. Geordies on the other hand are all clumped in one massive lump in the north east, it must be so wonderful there that they never want to leave.

Plastic gets thrown around way too much in here. If you're in a country with a poo poo or non-existent league what are you supposed to do? Swear off football? The notion the the closer you are in proximity to your team's stadium the more of a fan you are is really stupid. In the end a Chelsea supporter lets say is rooting for basically a band of internationals and people from elsewhere in the country anyways. It is not like they're cheering "the local lads" on. You can claim a Manchester fan in Canada is a bandwagoner, but you know nothing about their viewing habits/level of support. In fact a lot of people in these countries get up at ungodly hours in the morning for their team to go to the bar and get drunk and watch the game, gambling with their health and sanity.

I've talked to quite a few British fans of American Football and when they tell me which team they support (whether a good franchise or not) I say cool and I'll talk with them about it. The furthest thing from my mind is this guy is a loving plastic which seems to be the kneejerk reaction here when someone likes a team that they live more then 100 miles away from.

It's not surprising to see a Derby fan in FL tho, there's a shitton of ex-Pats there as well as a lot of tourists visiting Disney and then S.FL.

Hell one of the owners of a lower-league team used to go to my local in Boca and was a great guy. Damned if I can remember what team he was a part-owner of.

You might change your tune if the British fans of American Football were insufferable know-nothing retards deeply convinced of their knowledge of the game.

Tbh it's not the Stoke fan living in Peru people complain about. It's the Australian Chelsea fan who started following the club when Abrahmovic came in and now thinks they are the realest fan.

Also American football has like 32 teams in 22 states so it's not even remotely similar and drawing comparisons between the two is silly.

Well you never see his face and his hands at the same time, so it could be a player piano or something. He asks Pirlo at the end "you know what to do with your feet?" but I can't tell if he's asking him because he's showing him how or if he's actually asking him.
