    Ireland's premier football comentator is George Hamilton. He's come up with some classics in his day:

    "Real Madrid are like a rabbit in the glare of the headlights in the face of Manchester United's attacks. But this rabbit comes with a suit of armour in the shape of two precious away goals."

    "Italy are preparing to make a substitution - and it is, the unmistakable figure............of Roberto Baggio'"
    George announces the arrival on the pitch of..... Gianluca Vialli. Unfortunately, the two subs had got their shirts mixed up.

    "The Baggio brothers, of course, are not related."

    "... and Bonner has gone 165 minutes of these championships without conceding a goal. Oh danger here..."
    George makes the cardinal sin of tempting fate.

    Good stuff, Mikhail.

    I remember the Cantona saying about seagulls : french satyrical programmes quoted it for years.

    Anyway here's another one for you :

    "I have two dreams. One is to play in the World Cup. The other is to win it" - Diego Armando Maradona, aged 16.

    since everyone is starting threads with quotes from different movies why dont i start one where people can write their fav quotes from any movie and say where it was from.

    well since i have seen Fight Club and Snatch recently i have one from each.

    Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. (Fight Club)

    You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity (Snatch)
