No, we are not going anywhere. Unlike most of the favored teams in the Euros, we will continue on. For the record, I say Russia clinches it next Sunday.

reading all the articles on the ince hiring i kept marveling at the fact that he is referred to as black. the first time i was like 'man i cant believe they didnt call him african american.' then i realized how incredibly dumb i am.
but it got me thinking, is there a 'pc' term for black people outside of america?
i for one think that things like this show how stupid that label is in the first place. if barack obama meets paul ince the media here would explode scanners style. you couldnt possibly put 'the first african american presidential nominee' in the same caption as 'first black epl manager'
also, his son better be good
No, espana is winning, silly.
As for Paul Ince, I am amazed. He has done wonders for MK Dons, but I figured his work wasn't quite finished there yet.
He is clearly getting the experience needed to take over for Fergie though, this much is certain. One of Old Trafford's most beloved players has to return home and manage some time, right?
Him and Roy Keane will fight to the death for that job, should it ever become available.
