It's fun to watch games played in adverse conditions once in a while.

While I agree with this Id hate to have my team lose out on a place in Euro competition because the pitch was waterlogged and the match more closely resembled water polo.

Is this a non sequitor??

What does luck have to do with reading many books and watching many matches? Collecting matches and goals and hilites? After its all said and done you might be the biggest fan in all the UK?

I must get this out in the open, as it is running around in my brain, and even though it sounds weird I must stay this.

I have something that tells me that at one of the MLS All-Star games where it was played on a waterlogged pitch (not sure the year, and as you don't watch it I won't expect you to know), in a post-match interview that my boy LD said that he loved (or enjoyed, unsure which) playing in those conditions.

It could be a total laughathon for you all, and I could be totally wrong, but I am sure this happened. I wish I still had the tape to confirm it (but like a lot of things, it goes missing).

No, I'm not interested. I've told you the reason why - no J. League.

In fact, no new leagues at all, so there's not much point in playing it tbh.

You might not believe this but Im having the same thoughts myself. It seems like a patched FM2006 with a new roster set.

You are right. I dont watch. This is MY proof that Im not a real fan.

Im sure LD loved a waterlogged pitch because hes crap on a normal one.

You're nasty to him.

I might have got the wrong person, or just dreamt it all together, as it must be a number of years ago. Memories fade over time, and things merge into one.

I needed to get it off my chest, as it was annoying me so much. theasfl may know and can confirm or deny it happened.

And sorry for using "my boy" - I blame Kornheiser and Wilbon. They're who I picked it up off.

That usually happens when drinking.

Are you sure you dont drink? Things are very different in the UK. Ive had several people in the UK tell me, on the footiemanager,com forums, that they not only drink as teenagers but that their parents will buy it for them.

No, I don't.
