Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

A little too much information, pal. You should have restricted your list to those players most have heard of. You might also have included the exact location and timings.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Sorry but ill be partaking in the Abu Dhabi International Triathlon this weekend. Much better fun and a lot better work out.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Giuliano Mairoana

Now there is a blast from the past, looked shit hot in the reserves and youth team but was absolutely pants in the few games he got in the first team.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

bollocks, google it.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

aye that Fraser Digby was a United Legend..

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

he was compared to Giuliano Mairoana

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

and if he'd done that you'd moan 'why only put the known players'....why not list the full teams?!

Can't win!

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Some world class players there,seems they've got a decent line up for the first one, will be making a visit , should be a decent couple of days

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Keith 'no madam it's not a third leg' Dublin, Gary 'Maltese International' Chivers and Clive 'Flash' Walker...worth the entrance fee to see these Brighton and Hove Albion late 80s / early 90s legends...even if they are turning out for Chelsea

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Why the **** should I? Only the AC Milan team have any players worth watching. The rest look crap. Now, if Sandra Bullock was playing, I would definitely go.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

You're just upset because they couldn't scrape together a team of City legends!

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

Well they certainly failed to compile a team of Manure legends.:D

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
 

6. Manchester United

1. Russell Beardsmore (was ugliest player at Utd until Luke Chadwick)
2. Clayton Blackmore (1 FA Cup, 1 League Cup, 1 Cup Winners Cup, 1 Premier League)
3. Peter Davenport (Was shite, poor replacement for Mark Hughes)
4. Fraser Digby (only ever a reserve but a Swindon legend)
5. Deiniol Graham (scored one goal then disappeared)
6. Lou Macari (True legend, for his football and for his chippy)
7. Giuliano Mairoana (Shite)
8. Lee Martin (1 FA Cup, 1 Cup Winners Cup)
9. David May (2 FA Cup, 1 Champions League, 3 Premier League)
10. Ben Thornley (Cracking youth player, Nicky Marker screwed his career)
11. Neil Webb (1 FA Cup, 1 League Cup, 1 Cup Winners Cup - injury and his gobshite wife blighted his career at Utd)


So a fair few medals there, a few more I suspect than players in light blue have had in the last 34 years.

Re: Dubai footy 7s this weekend
