City/Bayern friendship initiative

[sweynforkbeard]

In the spirit of postwar reconciliation I have paid for cards to be placed on each seat in the East stand and Colin Bell lower tiers. As the teams emerge please hold them up in unison - one side will depict a lifelike portrait of Angela Merkel. On the reverse of the Colin Bell cards is spelt out the message:

'Football only uses one ball,
Snooker's are very very small,
But ice hockey uses no balls at all.'

On the reverse of the East stands cards it will read: 'Thank you for bombing Old Trafford.'

No - please hold the card up instead.

Are you some sort of pit prop? Seriously - well done for entering into the spirit of the event.

I would like a king sized one!

I like your analogy. Was it Angela Merkel that only had one ball ? I forget.

No, that was Helmut Kohl!

The Old themes are always the best. If you are in the Colin Bell lower tier, " Make sure you don't tell them your name -Pike." Bastian Schweinsteiger has been put in charge of the list!

With Bastien Schweinsteiger it should be, 'Don't spell them your name, She...Szch...Swi....er, Pike.'
