Now be careful here, you bunch of fey cunts. Helpful replies are not
part of teh charter for this froup. Having said that, I've noticed
some new vocabulary that you lot use, and I'd appreciate a translation
so that I can join in with your in depth analysis of British
Soccerball. So, what the fuck do these things mean:

Froup
Betcunt
Youk
Newsghey
Goan The Hoops


Thankyou for your attention. I'm off to bed now and I expect a bumper
postbag of helpful etymology when I wake up and log onto the finest
soccerball discussion board on the whole of the internet (with the
exception of Owlstalk... obviously)

I just skip over those confusing terms. I think they may be female 
genitalia or something. Yes, that's it. It's cunts all right.

Not a problem, Andy.  I'm just the man to assist.  A lot of people say
I'm probably the most helpful, beautiful man they've ever met.  And
they'd be right.

> Froup

Well, it's, like, the froup, isn't it?

"Where've you been?"
"Just been on the froup."
"Ah, okay.  Want to look at btnpierced.jpg some more now?"
"Yes."

> Betcunt

Easy.  You have to place your betcunt before the Saturday deadline
(usually 11.45am) and hope it wins.  That's basic betcunting strategy
right there.

> Youk

You can't betcunt without Youks.  You just can't.  You'd look like a
fool.

> Newsghey

It's like a newspaper dedicated solely to stories about ghey stuff.  Think
"Daily Mail minus xenophobia and racism but plus bumming and fisting".
It's very, very good.

> Goan The Hoops

Ben Nunn's catchphrase.

Heh.  Owlstalk, indeed.  Owls can't talk, silly.

Can they?

I'm not sure this is what Andy means, Mikey. I think Owlstalk is 
something to do with nocturnal predators following people, and I suggest 
that we be wary of this 'Andy' fellow.

Imagine what the world would be like if people actually *joined* the froup?

I'm not sure we want that to happen, do they? It would be almost as mad 
as Liverpool selling Xabi Alonso.

See, I don't know about this, Chopsy.  Alonso's performances when he
first arrived were beyond brilliant.  And in 05/06, he gave just about the
best midfield display you're ever likely to see in the Anfield Merseyside
derby when Gerrard was sent off after 15 minutes.

But for the last two years, it's not just that he hasn't kicked on.  He's
actually gone backwards.  He doesn't dominate games like someone of
his obvious class should.  He seems to drift out when he's got Mascherano
and Gerrard around him, as if he feels a bit intimidated.  And even though
Mascherano does most of the donkey work, he's still been doing more
effective creative work than Xabi for the last six months.  I don't think
Alsonso has even scored since getting two against Derby in September.

He's obviously just about the best passer of a ball in the league but I just
don't understand why he's not an awful lot better than he is.

Because he's playing for Liverpool?

I often notice a 'Coventry effect' whereby players are much worse than they 
should be once they start getting paid by CCFC Ltd, and I wonder if the same 
thing ever afflicts other unlucky sides?
