Fowl play

Gemamy al kipim aff mab!"

u00a0"What?"

"I said, Germany are kicking..."

"Yeah, yeah, I got it. Must make you feel real vulnerable. I wouldn't mind getting the Golden Boot though. Would you go easy on the chicken please?"

u00a0"Seriously Pathikrit! I am putting my money on them to win this thing."

u00a0"Do you have enough to foot the bill? Or will I have to do the honours again?"

u00a0""Well it was the logical conclusion after the United States were ousted. Still they can take heart from what Mark Viduka once said ufffd 'I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league'. What position did he play?"

He was the team's main drawback. Dude, I heard somewhere that Oxo are making a new product. The packaging is white with a red cross and they're calling it the laughing stock! Ha, ha, ha!"
"You've got mustard on your nose."

u00a0"Mmm! This is better than KFC man! Who are your favourites?"

"East Bengal."
"Eas ufffdWhich World Cup did they win, remind me again?"

"That's a mere technicality. I mean 16 Durand Cup wins! Come on! Players such as Mona Dutta, T Balaram, Apparao, Peter Thangaraj. The win against Iran's Pas Club in the IFA Shield final of 1970..."

"Is still etched in your memory, I know. I guess the fact that all this happened in the Mesozoic era is a mere technicality as well. Anyway, at least Argentina were playing well. But Maradona looked like a plump school kid in that suit."

Still, with him around, the boys got some real hands-on training. The only reason I was a bit half-hearted about supporting them was Maradona's promise of running naked on the field if the team had won the cup. Do you think that was any incentive for the squad, at all?"

"I was hoping he would get red-carded. Err ufffddude, will you get that? Funny thing! It seems my card has expired."
