Was talking to a mate who goes to see Chelsea youths regularly and he was saying there's a lad called Franck Nouble who is supposed to be the business up front. He's huge apparently and is very quick and athletic.
i checked him up on wikipedia and it had a tricolour beside his name:)
does anyone know if he's born in ireland or is it a terry dixon job?
it was an ivory coast flag:mad::o

think if you look closely you'll also see that it's an ivory coast flag or are you also a terry dixon job:rolleyes:
Sorry, but I had to laugh!! I feel for you though.Quote:

Classic.

Anyone hear of this Guy Bungle, He should be the next manager of Ireland. I reckon he would do a great job. :)
Yeah he could have zippy as his assistant, geoffrey as his kit man and george could be the new mick byrne - we could call it the Rainbow management teamQuote:

post of the month to bungle!
cheers for the support lads:)
Nah my mate is just a cockney that I've known for years. He's a big Chelsea fan and goes to the youth and reserve games. He told me about this fella so I thought I'd check out where he's from, at which point I saw the tricolour:o
sorry bungle, i meant it as a thick thing to do, not that you are thick!! :)
but im sure i would have done the same and posted before fully verifying. Next time though dont be so honest and delete the first post!!!
Didn't Jimmy Magge make the same mistake at the opening ceremony of the World cup last year, when all the flags of the competitng nations were brought into the stadium.
Heh Bungle, you should have just edited wikipedia, not too late yet :D
Happens all the time with football video games as well. If anyone knows Chaplin's pub on Hawkins st Dublin just beside the screen cinema they actually have the Indian flag flying outside it- horizontal tricolor :rolleyes:
There were supposedly a bunch of Ireland fans who went to the World Cup last year specifically to support the Ivory Coast on the basis that they only had to turn the flags wrong way round. Maybe Jimmy spotted them at the Ivorian games.
I love the way everyone on here gets so excited about every lad playing in some youth team in England who had a good game and MIGHT be Irish.:rolleyes:
That's what tends to happen when your first choice xi don't amount to much, you have to live in hope!
India were playing a cricket game at Stormont not so long ago and it was observed by a friend of mine that it's the only time a load of fellas have marched up the ards road in belfast with green white and gold tricolours and got away with it.Quote:
