Mac the Knife Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Yeah, but how much does it cost to charter a dozen or so buses? It's a PR move, but it's a good one. Nice gesture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred T. Jane Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It's a good thing they chartered a dozen buses for the eight fans that'll show up. Last year the owner of the Houston-based chain Gallery Furniture was so impressed by the Dynamo supporters after their Western conference win that he personally chartered 12 buses to send Dynamo supporters to Frisco. His relationship to the club? Until watching that match, none whatsoever. Now? One of the team's biggest boosters.As for the crowd, I think it'll be split 50-50. New England and Houston are both sending boatloads of fans, but I've seen Barra Brava/Screaming Eagles members openly state that they are tossing their support behind Houston as a hat tip to the fan support they give as well as the fact that a Houston win would ensure the fact that DC United is the only MLS club to win MLS Cup as a member of the Eastern Conference. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

DEAD! Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It's a good thing they chartered a dozen buses for the eight fans that'll show up. That joke is getting really old.... the reason it's eight fans is because the rest will take the train instead... I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
