Champs League build up
 
I like this....

Surprisingly, given Roman Abramovich's ownership of Chelsea, Manchester United appear more popular in Russia. "We like Wayne Rooney a lot in Russia. He's very popular. He looks like Shrek," said Ruslan Matveev, 26. "Manchester United are going to win 3-0," he predicted.

And yet, according to Martina Petrova (26) from Moscow, "Cristiano Ronaldo looks too much like a ladyboy so I pick Chelski to win 2-1 after extra time".

If they kicked off early evening Moscow time, people in the UK would be coming down sick in droves this afternoon to get home early.

a mate of mine was travelling and working in Holland when the world cup was on, he was working packing frozed ice lollies and teh england game was on, he couldn't get time off so he said to his boss "I think I'm going to be sick", ran outside, kept and going and ran all the way to the pub.

Heh, he went back to work the next day and was sacked.
