    Transfer Rumour David Brekalo

    Hmm but two days ago they were boasting of having turned down bids from Mityyland. Seems to me it’s easy to disbelieve everything that comes out of our club and believe everything that is said by others.

    Aha I just suspected that tonight’s opening was the perfect opportunity for the local radio station to arrange an interview for broadcast the next morning. Maybe it’s live prior to his flight to Stavanger to fetch the new Slovenian King.

    Any Sbt posters play walking football

    I’ve tried it, tbh tackling isn’t really an issue as you can only get to a challenge at walking speed. The biggest challenge is you have to play the ball to feet. Any pass into space tends to roll out of play as the walking player can’t get to it in time. The other feature is that...
