[Football] Soccer AID England v Rest of the World unofficial Match Day Thread

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

The biannual tournament were a group of English celebrities and former professionals take on the rest of the world. England have a standup record but with Mourinho at the help the rest of the world will be hoping to add to the single game they've won so far.

Out of interest, why ?

I'd happily donate double the money if ITV guaranteed they wouldn't show it every year.

I suppose it's a Good Cause etc, but it's cringeworthy TV.

Has Edgar Davids forgotten his usual sports glasses? He appears to be wearing a pair of Ray Bans with tortoise shell frames.

 

[Stat Brother]

I have just turned it over in favour of the Grand Prix.



Lower praise cannot be given.

Bloody love Edgar Davids (palace part of him excluded). The man is effortlessly cool.

Its just a bit of fun!

 

[The Legend that IS Lawro]

Am I missing the point, but the cost of the suits they all turned up in would feed a struggling town for some time?

 

[El Sid]

That ********* **** Gordon ******* Ramsey is ******* *****

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Its just a bit of fun!

I accept that, and I feel like I'm probably getting stuck on Santa's naughty list for slating it, but watching a bunch of fat Z listers huffing their way around a pitch with a few hilarious "comedy" interludes is my idea of TV hell, I'm afraid

It's so bad, I'm actually contemplating watching Last of the Summer Wine or Police Academy 3 instead

 

[Wrong-Direction]

To be honest if the footballs and celebs all donated half a mill each, world poverty would be cured!

Nice idea, however I fear Jonathan Wilkes' current salary may not permit such generosity (well, not unless Burger King have suddenly given all their employees a pay rise).

 

[franks brother]

Our new manager was in it a couple of years ago

Nothing wrong with Police Academy.

Is that the one where the coloured fella makes all the funny noises?



I loves that one.

 

[Magic City]

I would much prefer it if a comedian replaced one of the commentators, preferably Graham Taylor, just to tie in with the feel of the game. It seems a bit too awkward.

 

[carteater]

jeez its a charity friendly no need for davids to get feisty

Davids doing to Robbie William's best mate what i'm sure the majority of the population would like to do.
