    I worked in retail over Christmas and that song played on loop everyday for about 3 weeks. I've only just gotten over it and now you've reminded me. I hate you.

    Haha :) I work in retail too and believe it or not I didn't hear it once. Plenty of Michael Bublé with Wham and Fairytale of New York for good measure.

    If it was Fairytale of New York I would have said something


    THE POGUES

    "Fairytale Of New York"

    It was Christmas Eve babe
    In the drunk tank
    An old man said to me,
    Won't see another one
    And then he sang a song
    The Rare Old Mountain Dew
    I turned my face away
    And dreamed about you

    Got on a lucky one
    Came in eighteen to one
    I've got a feeling
    This year's for me and you
    So happy Christmas
    I love you baby
    I can see a better time
    When all our dreams come true

    They've got cars
    Big as bars
    They've got rivers of gold
    But the wind goes right through you
    It's no place for the old

    When you first took my hand
    On a cold Christmas Eve
    You promised me
    Broadway was waiting for me

    You were handsome
    You were pretty
    Queen of New York City
    When the band finished playing
    They howled out for more
    Sinatra was swinging
    All the drunks they were singing
    We kissed on the corner
    Then danced through the night

    The boys of the NYPD choir
    Were singing 'Galway Bay'
    And the bells are ringing
    Out for Christmas day

    You're a bum
    You're a punk
    You're an old slut on junk
    Living there almost dead
    On a drip in that bed

    You scum bag
    You maggot
    You cheap lousy ******
    Happy Christmas your arse
    I pray God
    It's our last

    The boys of the NYPD choir
    Still singing 'Galway Bay'
    And the bells are ringing
    Out for Christmas day

    I could have been someone
    Well, so could anyone
    You took my dreams
    From me when I first found you
    I kept them with me babe
    I put them with my own
    Can't make it all alone
    I've built my dreams around you

    The boys of the NYPD choir
    Still singing 'Galway Bay'
    And the bells are ringing
    Out for Christmas day

    Looks as though Vermijl is signing for a Belgian club, Lokeren FC. Ogden retweeted it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,547 ✭✭✭Your Airbag


    Lets start today on a positive. Hopefully the club will want to get some business done today and not hang it all on monday.

    United with more support than Real Madrid is really starting to show when it comes to sponsor deals.

    United could probably get upto £50 million a season if they renamed Old Trafford, with United's training ground renaming being worth more than renaming the Bernabeu.

    It's not being renamed officially globally. I think just in the Middle East.


    I think.

    I think.

    its going to be the official name worldwide and the name above their stadium

    Alot of the sponsorship deals stated to be done when the glazers took over, so would they not be responsible for all the deals as opposed to Woodward?

    Vermijl's deal has fallen through it seems.

    Woodward was their advisor in taking over United. Then he was the head of commercial and media operations so it was him and not them really.

    no, it was woodward that advised the glazers all along even as they were doing the initial takeover

    Herrera: Michael Carrick is a midfield role model

    Ander Herrera has declared his respect for Michael Carrick and has revealed how his fellow Manchester United midfielder helps to inspire the squad's younger players.
    In an exclusive interview with MUTV, Herrera describes the Reds' vice-captain as "one of the best players I've ever played with" and cites his composure as being a key component to his important influence on the team, on and off the pitch.
    "He always gives us calmness; he's a very calm guy when he's playing. He gives me confidence," says Herrera.
    "He is very good for the young players because he always tries to help, not necessarily with words but with his attitude and his calmness.
    "He is one of the best players I've ever played with and a very good professional," adds the Spaniard. "We can all improve by looking at him and what he does. I feel lucky to play with him."

    Be nice if this was true
    Manchester United will make one last big push to sign either Mats Hummels of Borussia Dortmund or Aymeric Laporte of Athletic Bilbao over the last few days of the window, club sources have told ESPN FC.


    The Old Trafford hierarchy had taken the decision to pursue only "top priority" targets and wait until the summer if they could not be bought now, but both Hummels an Laporte fall into that category, and United want to at least test the resolve of their clubs given their own ongoing issues in defence.
