Baichung Bhutia was a famous Indian player with over 100 caps. Played for Bury for a few years and may well have been the first Indian to play professional football in England. This may all be bollocks, my memory is fairly shit nowadays. I think. Edit: fuck me, 63 posts in 8 years is a poor...

Re: City v Al Hilal Its on Abu Dhabi Sports 3 if anyone has it :)

I'm English, born in Somerset but lived all over the country and moved to Abu Dhabi in 1990 when I was 9. About the same time I started supporting City - I literally have no recollection as to why. Before that I liked Arsenal so putting two and two together I figure that I had a strange love...

Trevor Francis Barry Silkman John Burridge Barry Conlon (never actually played for them) Richard Edghill Gareth Taylor Steve Lomas David Seaman Ish Miller (was there on loan) Lived abroad most my life so when we went back to the UK it was during summer so never saw any City games live until...

Just had a look on timeoutabudhabi.com and theres a place called Coopers relatively close (just over Maqta bridge) - try calling to see if they have Al Jazeera Sports http://www.timeoutabudhabi.com/restaurants/details/7408

Isn't that where the Fairmont and Shangri-La are? I doubt there's too many sports bars around there (could be wrong, I am regularly). Why not get into town and meet up with the Abu Dhabi Blues?

fnaaaar. did you vote then?

Whilst we're on the subject of voting and because I'm not allowed to start threads would those of you with facebook accounts mind voting for me here - http://www.turning-thirty.com/gallery/503# - simply put, the person with the most votes gets a car. Unfortunately the leader has over 1300 and...

I hope we're two down with a minute left and we're rescued by two late, late goals to force extra time and then we go on to win it on penalties. Again. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hahahahahaha I hate Pulis.

Peter Drury just said that Tevez had failed the fitness test and that Dzeko starts...

Although technically we weren't 'here'. We were at Sincil Bank watching the mighty Lincoln beat City... *snort*

Can we avoid turning this into an Arab/Israeli debate and stick to the topic of Qatar hosting the World Cup? It's already been said that Israelis would be allowed into the country so that's the end of that.

We 'allow' them to do that? That's awfully nice of us. build mosques - there are churches in Qatar observe their minority religions - as above show the signs of that religion publically - ok you win that one speak their foreign language - if you go to Qatar for the World Cup you wont have to...

Its all good and well suggesting Egypt hold the world cup but a couple of reasons rule them out: 1) they dont have the resources to build the infrastructure 2) they are in Africa. Why would you compare Qatari and South African footballing abilities, what baring does that have on hosting the...

a) What makes me a 'know-nowt'? b) Does that make you a know-all then? c) There is no 'c'. What on earth would you base that on?! Football is for the fans. So why not let millions of football worshipping fans in the Middle East host a World Cup? Sure, Qatar has a relatively small population...

Are you a bit dim? If not, you should probably be aware that there are English people living abroad.

Although in defence of Australia it'll be winter...

Why is it a disgrace that England didn't get the 2018 World Cup? I'd love to have seen it hosted there as much as anyone but its not really a disgrace is it? Russia have as much right as we do to host it. They won, we didn't. Boohoo.
