Bluesteel Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Why do they call him the "professor"? Is it just because he's a clever player or is there a more amusing reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The professor will be seeing where he fits in the squad. On grass presumably? (I remember when a 5-a-side game against Baltimore Blast wasn't good enough!) Cantona was crap anyway..

pickledegghiderman Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Are we going to have a shitstorm friday where carlos sets up a game show style set and says " now to reveal the contenders" he then begins to seduce the crowd with a cheeky smile and then says " lets reveal the first contender, its abdi from watford" he then asks him a few questions and cracks an almost dirty joke before saying " and the second contender is...... Daniel, also from watford" he then begins to whisper sweet nothings into his ear and makes another quirky joke before announcing our third contender " its ben from blackburn " he then begins to send the crowd into rapturous applause with stories of the massive, and how the opposites will probababably be terrified when the wednesday roll into town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
