"...standard toilets..."

Madrid could have a change of heart after seeing the away dressing rooms

Should be a good money spinner for Rovers. Fair play. Might need to install a fancier non standard toilet for Ronaldo.

did anyone hear the five live interview with teh shams chairman?! bizarre to say the least, he was trying to compare the two teams on relative terms

He actually sounded disinterested by the whole thing?! Is he lacking a bit of cop on?

Well nothing's confirmed yet so he's obviously playing it down a little in case it doesn't come off for them. Seems like a sensible enough policy to me

It didnt sound like he was "playing it down" but if thats the case then fair enough, but they commentated on it afterwards saying he didnt sound too interested either way.

Well on the one hadn he's looking for maximum exposure for Rovers, and hyping them up, while on the other he has to protect them for any backlash if it doesn't come through

There is a rumour that Platinum wants Madrid to play celtic in Croke Park instead. Personally I'd prefer if they played Rovers in Tallaght

They paid �25,000 for Twigg?

He's on a three-year contract too. Jesus!

Makes you wonder what the Milan lads though of the dressing rooms in Mels!!!!
I've only got togged out in the home ones and to say they were woeful is an
understatement!

**Sheridan** · 17/06/2009, 9:43 AM

Yep, shelling out �2,000 per goal just emphasises what a fine model of sound financial planning they have going there!

He said "It's definitely happening"...hardly a sign that he's playing it down in case it doesn't happen.

How dare you question our whiter than white shining lights and their prudent financial wheeler dealings

They fought in a war don't you know...

You actualy believe that we paid that much for Twigg.... as for your plain stupid logic of �2k per goal , so that means that Real Madrid have just paid €90m for a player and he hasn't scored even one goal !!

Actually real madrid have just spent �90m for a player who hasn't scored for them yet...
