There are many ways to show your disgust at being subbed off. A mock clap and thumbs up seems quite
popular of late, especially if you want a smack in the chops from your boss. But that infantile
reaction was spectacularly topped at the weekend in a relegation tussle in Chile. With just 36
minutes [.

ITV have created an advert which imagines if instead of England flobbing up every international
tournament going (if we even qualified) we actually dominated international football for a period
of almost fifty years. It is entitled It's Good To Dream, and it immortalises all of the England
captains through the years with statues outside Wembley [.

Bursting at the seams with enough edits to sink a battleship, but a fairly cool little advert
none-the-less which sees David Beckham playing Beethoven's Ode To Joy on his drum wall using
nothing but his balls to flog Samsung's new Galaxy widget...

With only 18 days to go until it all cracks off in Poland and Ukraine, China's Euro 2012
television rights holders Now TV have rolled out a new anime-style advert to tantalise the nation
an advert which sees post-apocalyptic renderings of European landmarks such as the Colosseum, the
Eiffel Tower and the Houses Of Parliament reduced to smouldering rubble, followed by a football
match and a lovely song, followed by a sequence which sees all-out war break out over the
previously mentioned European landmarks as soldiers, tanks and bombers further raze the continent
to the ground only to be defeated by the footballers and their powerful slide tackles THEN a
rainbow lion descends from the sky and makes the world fall apart just before the winning goal gets
lashed in.

Hot on the heels of 'Write The Future' (remember Rooney's beard?) comes Nike's
latest major tournament bells-and-whistles big-budget viral, 'My Time Is Now', starring the like of
Sneijder, Ribery, Van der Vaart, Ozil, Ronaldo, Neymar, Iniesta, Pique, Pato, Old Uncle Tom Cobley,
etc, etc, etc.

Manchester United's new Gingham home kit, for better or worse, has been
designed to reflect the city's industrial heritage so much so, in fact, that the motto 'Forged in
Industry, Striving for Glory' is stitched inside the collar. Isambard Kingdom Brunell would wet
himself.
Another advert released for Euro 2012 is Carlsberg's Fan Academy. Carlsberg have taken to using as
many famous football faces as possible in their recent attempts, and this is no different, with
three wannabe England football fans being shown round England's Official Fan Academy by Des Lynam.
The advert contains names such as Lynam, Peter [.
With the Euros fast approaching and the domestic season drawing to a close, it is time for
England's sponsors to release their tournament adverts. Mars have already released their penalty
shoot out advert, which is so poor it forces sick into my mouth whenever I get caught unawares with
it on screen.
There is no question that tonight is important. So much so, right now this game is more important
than the FA CUP final AND Champions League final because of the club's desire to finish in the top
four.
We could win the FA CUP but we wouldn't qualify for next seasons Champions League by doing so.

Don't expect Paddy Power's new goal-line technology advert to be gracing your TV screens any
time soon: 'Near the knuckle' doesn't even begin to cover it.
Or perhaps it does come to think of it...

Former Manchester United and Dutch keeper Edwin Van Der Sar was back in unfamiliar territory as
he went about saving penalties from a boat in Amsterdam in an advert for Adidas.
I have to say it's a good advert! Frank Lampard, Fernando Torres and Didier Drogba all feature
alongside Jack Wilshire, Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi. Have a watch and enjoy!
KTBFFH!

With Liverpool and Everton meeting at Wembley in the FA Cup semi-final tomorrow, OTP looks at some
of the greatest moments of previous Cup meetings between the Merseyside rivals. 1. The advert goal
(2010) The infamous extra-time winner from Dan Gosling was scored during a mistimed ITV advert
break. Despite the controversy, the most shocking [.

There's something eerily familiar about this advert for a public school in India...
Presumably not a finishing school then? Badum tish!
A thousand apologies to the internet for stealing it's punchline.

TweetLA Galaxy midfielder and former England captain David Beckham is the star of the show in a new
Burger King advert. Ok, so the acting is diabolical, but hey, on this cold Spring morning,
Beckham's 31 seconds in front of the camera brought a wry smile on the lips of In The Stands'
editor-in-chief AA [.
He's so dreamy, isn't he? That's the premise this new Burger King commercial plays up to at least.
Make eye contact with David Beckham and that's it: you're under his spell. While that has its
advantages, it does make it difficult to get decent service at Burger King. Unfortunately, his LA
Galaxy team-mates seem to [.
Alan Pardew very proud Here's the BBC interview with Alan Pardew we could have had four goals -
you have to wait of the advert playing. Alan praised the performances of Williamson and Perch at
the back, and Mike went close with two headers today and hit the post in the first half, and it

Pepsi's latest commercial features a bunch of hot footballers surfing their way across a crowded
arena to a bangin' soundtrack supplied by Calvin Harris.
The players were obviously selected to specifically engage with our own, very niche
demographic since Fernando Torres, Sergio Aguero, Frankie Lampard, Didier Drogba, Jack Wilshere and
Leo Messi were the boys the carbonated beverage brand chose to feature.

Tuesday night's Coppa Italia match between Milan and Juventus was a fantastic advert for the
Italian game. This season's two best teams by some distance, eights point to be exact, played out
an entertaining draw at Juventus's new and impressive stadium. There were goals, two splendid ones
at that, and the two strongest sets of players in the Serie A on display.

The great Usain Bolt once boasted that he was good enough to play for Man Utd, the club he
supports. He even took part in a training session with the Red Devils in 2009.
However, judging by this video, in which the sprinter fools around with his manager whilst
making an advert for Visa, he might not quite make the grade.
Wolves v Man Utd by Phentore01 1. Manchester United took the opportunity of rivals City having the
weekend off to close the goal difference gap. 2. Another defeat and more evidence that Terry Goner
is on a hiding to nothing at Wolves. 3. Papiss Cisse has decided that if Usain Bolt can pretend to
be [.

While compatriot Pepe Reina is busying himself by starring in insurance commercials of
questionable taste and virtue, Spain duo Iker Casillas and Andres Iniesta have
starred in an altogether more wholesome advert campaign for La Liga BBVA which sees the pair taking
to the streets and act their arses off with a bit of starry-eyed role reversal asking stunned
members of the public for autographs, hugs and photographs.
Spanish multinational insurance company, Groupama, under pressure from the Operation Black Vote,
to pull its latest advert starring our beloved Pepe Reina.
Via the HuffPo:
"The commercial depicts black people, in a jungle scenario as "stupid, backward, animalistic
homosexuals", according to the UK racial equality group.

Brazil have two new kits out (this way for photos), and therefore Nike needed
an ad premise that would suitably showcase them both simultaneously. The result? With cameos from
Neymar, Ganso, Pato, Ronaldo and...erm...Javier Mascherano, they had Brazil take on their greatest
adversaries: Brazil.
We love Mario Balotelli, but as Sam Hasse discusses...could he be on his way out of the
Premiership. Love him or loathe him, you can't help but talk about the enigma that is Mario
Balotelli. Amid his recently imposed 4-match ban, Balotelli's agent has come out publically and
said that he feels that he is being victimised in the Premier League, and [.
The 12 most annoying football clichés - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
We all love talking about football, with the latest matches, transfers and events dominating the
train of thought and sparking debate on a daily basis. From the highest echelon of football
commentators, journalists and even the players and managers themselves, down to the man in the pub,
anything can be explained and justified with a well-rehearsed and used-to-death cliché.
Where there's subtle product shilling and grammatically correct Tweets on social media, you know
there's a shameless publicity stunt just 'round the bend, Kickettes. And for you today we have one
of the promo shots starring none other than Mrs Peter Crouch for the launch of Lynx Attract For
Her.
Super Chelse Misfiring striker Fernando Torres is not the only person at Chelsea who isn't doing
his job properly at the moment. Somebody managed to spell the club's name incorrectly in an
electronic advert. The ad, which was displayed during yesterday's 3-3 draw with Manchester United,
invited people to visit chelsefc.
What was a dream at 3-0 quickly morphed into a nightmare near full time for the Chels, as
Manchester United with a helping hand from good friend Howard Webb clawed back to secure a 3-3 draw
in a breathless encounter at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Yeah, that's a difficult result to accept.
Remember Leon McKenzie? No? Well he's a former Norwich striker who's now carving out a career in
music as some kind of Craig David sound-alike... Okay, so he doesn't exactly sound like Craig
David but, you know, Garbage (sic) music is all the same right? Well apparently he has also covered
King's of Leon (like everyone) [.
During the first half of the Watford v Spurs match, the ESPN cameramen spotted a rather simple man
who had WFC on both cheeks and clearly didn't realise that what he sees in the mirror isn't the
same as what the rest of us see... I can only assume he did the right cheek and [...] Related

As we depart for the local pub, we'll leave you with this: four behind the scene shots of David
Beckham filming his H&M underwear advert for the Super Bowl next month.
TTYL, Kickettes!
Newspapers are for news...
... not privatised profitable propaganda for one individual.
It always flushes out the murky does the January Transfer Window - with a business restriction of
just one month within season, all manipulations, criminalities, envelope stuffing, bribing and
pressurising are themselves pressured by time.
David Beckham, who launched his Bodywear collection for H&M earlier this month, will strip down to
his smalls for the advert - which is expected to be seen by 162 million people watching the Super
Bowl.
Speaking of the ad, H&M's North American director of marketing Steve Lubomski said: "We're
thrilled with this campaign and excited to captivate viewers' attention during the Super Bowl, the
biggest stage in the world to unveil our ad campaign, "David Beckham is a true style icon and one
of the most decorated soccer players of all time.
Former Celtic star Shunsuke Nakamura took part in a live stunt on Japanese TV show where he had to
try to curl the ball into a moving bus... Nakamura, who is still playing at 34 for his first
professional side Yokohama F. Marinos, launched this absolutely fantastic effort from an alleyway,
where he needed mirrors [.
The latest installment of disgruntled-fans-sell-overpriced-former-star-on-ebay has launched,
right smack in the middle of the January window, leaving some hope.
The gentleman in question is Amauri, man of more nationalities than goals for his current club,
Juventus. Fans saw fit to throw him onto ebay, where the bids got up to now sit down €10m.
Chelsea fans! Why not go and try the brand new Indian Restaurant in Fulham Broadway The

So if you need food before or after the game then why not head to The Masala Zone (opposite
Barclays Bank) and
please mention you have seen this advert on my website "Chelseadaft" for me
when you go in.
Ex-Wimbledon hardman Vinnie Jones is putting his reputation to good use with this amusing advert
for the British Heart Foundation. If you were wondering what to do if some geezer collapses in
front of you, wonder no more. No kissing required.
