You missed out on an ‘n’ there, Farmer.
The Milan ultras turned up on the first day of pre-season training, started a few fires and fired missiles at the club directors. Great stuff.
Only something like 1000 season tickets sold by Milan so far!

Doubt Jim Magilton will be interested. Kavanagh flopped at Birmingham City did he not?
AC Milan have announced the surprise signing of American defender Oguchi Onyewu.
Onyewu, who had a loan spell at Newcastle in 2007, has signed a three-year deal with the Italian giants after leaving Standard Liege.
Gabriel Obertan signs for United
Sir Alex Ferguson has made Bordeaux’s Gabriel Obertan United’s third signing of the summer, after the promising young Frenchman signed a four-year deal at Old Trafford.
The 20-year-old’s contract keeps him at Old Trafford until at least June 2013, and Sir Alex revealed Obertan, who can play in a variety of attacking positions, is a player whose progress he has followed for some time.
“Gabriel is a player we have tracked for a few years now, but because of his educational programme our efforts to get him here have always been delayed,” the Reds boss toldManUtd.com.
“We are delighted to get him now as he is an exciting prospect. We like to get young players and develop them, and we will see that in Gabriel over the next two years.”
Gabriel admits he jumped at the chance to join the Barclays Premier League champions.
I am very happy to join Manchester United," he told us. “This is a big opportunity for me to play at such a great club. I am very excited to be here and I look forward to proving what I can do.”
Hopefully wont be Bellion mark 2. 
The downsizing of Manchester United continues apace. I remember when they used to have good players.
Didnt think you watched English football unless this was your days as a City Fan.
They used to have Ronaldo - he was brilliant. I watch some EPL football, just not as much as the lepers in this country who watch ‘Super Sunday’ religiously, even when it’s Richard Keys and Andy Gray creaming themselves over Hull and Aston Villa or some nobody game like that.
You would have to pay me to watch Spl and infact I only watch it in Pp Towers because its my job. :rolleyes:
It’s your job to watch soccer matches? Do you price up matches or do the odds for betting in running or something?
Do you have to watch games like Motherwells v Greatna? Now that would be painful
Nah just settle the Prematch book so if a goal goes in I can settle a few markets and the goalscorer etc. Live matches would take priority if we were busy like on a Saturday which during the season is a madhouse from about 3pm to 6pm.
Whatever would be on Sky/Setanta Kib we would have on in the office.
They would get disturbance money for that

Serie A seems to be back as the best league in the world based on that info:clap:
Touch and go between Serie A and La Liga all right.
How many world class players have turned the EPL down this summer at this stage?
The list is getting ever longer and Melo’s the latest one.
You have Ribery, Benzema, Ronaldo, Fortune, Melo, Villa, Vucinic to name but a few.
Wigan are on the verge of signing Jason Scotland from Swansea though.
