Beautiful and California shouldn't be used in the same sentence.

Seriously? Spoken like someone who has never been off his soggy island.

Congratulations, I think it took you three posts to rip our team, our city and our country.

But Randy the pansy Lerner is great reason for supporting any sports team ... maybe you are this guy:

If so ... we'd all like to punch you.

By the way, here's a brief refresher:

California:

Aston Villa:

[gftChris]

Man, that Bradford game. Fucking ridiculous.

[LondonBrown]

hahaha brilliant Zombo

Lol. I was going to comment about his trashing of California, but I've only been to LA and clearly that town does not represent the entire state.

[DieHardBrownsFan]

LA is a cesspool. Outside is nice.

[LondonBrown]

Birmingham is an awful place so the Villa fan had a cheek there straight away tbf

It's better than it was, but that's not exactly difficult. But yes, saying Cali is ugly is just ridiculous.

[MLD Woody]

Welcome. Happy to have a new Browns fan. But man, you picked a bad team at a bad time. but I guess it is always a bad time for the browns.

Don't mind some of the people on here. They flip out over anything different. They flip out over anythjng not Brown's. They flip out over a lot actually.

Oh, and soccer is a fantastic sport. I've been playing my entire life. Not every American is allergic to it

Old trafford is great, but it's all modern, glass fronted and the rest. Villa Park is in the middle of the community, still with the original red brick façade.

David Platt left the villa in 1991! But yes, he's a villa fan I think so still comments on the club sometimes.

And I have watched and rewatched the fumble and the drive, and red right 88 and the rest, on their own and as part of compilations of "greatest comebacks" or "sutpidest moments" etc

LOL.

And, what the fuck happened to Leeds?

Nottingham Forest, Derby, Birmingham City and Sheff Wed were all Division one back then.

[LondonBrown]

Around 10 years ago Leeds suffered the worst mismanagement at the top level in English football history.

They nearly went out of business and went from playing in the biggest club competition in the world (Champions League) to getting relegated a few times. They are currently in the level one below the Premiership.

Such a fantastic finish. Not sure it's the best world cup goal ever though, for me not even the best english goal - michael owen probably has that honour. Jairzhino scored a great goal, Bergkamp's was amazing -

- and probably at the top is Maradona against england (the one he didn't cheat on)

Yea you probably seen more than me. Bobby Charlton gots to have the best performance though.

LOL. guy posts here about being a new fan. We bash him and now he is going to be a Giants fan now. good job guys. California is kinda shitty if you live here.

[HowieDawg]

There may be parts of Cal that are shitty, but one undeniable fact is that the whole of Birmingham is shitty. Every square inch.

Well done for picking the browns however. Once bitten forever smitten. You might want to do your soccer talk elsewhere however, Zombo has a hair trigger for that kind of talk.

Maybe we need a soccer forum?

[VaporTrail]

Well, while we're on the topic. Anyone think Klinsmann can get our boys out of the group of death this year? I'd also love to see us beat Ghana.

To be perfectly honest, no, I don't think so. Not saying it's impossible, but you'd need to beat Ghana and get a decent result against Portugal to stand a chance - that is assuming Germany beats everybody.

Sweet all of my teams suck. Leeds had the team, David Battie, Vinny Jones, Gordon Strocken, etc.

You've probably had this topic before, but i am an Aston Villa who has decided to get into the NFL and i've chosen to support the browns, i've had Browns merchandise for ages but never really been into the NFL until now, any way i was wondering if you guys could give me some information about the browns and what not.

I'm not sure the nature of this forum so i could just end up getting abuse for being a fan of football (soccer) but oh well.

Also if any of you guys could tell me, was there ever any Villa merchandise sold over there? Or do you guys hate us.

Thanks.

Just spell it right if you are going to call soccer by that name: it is futbol.

We play football, you play futbol. Well, we play futbol too...but we call it soccer.
