"The Angels sing, in his legs" Aldo Agroppi, Fiorentina 1985-1986
"His legend was not built on titles, but on moments "
There are legends for every club. Every Calcio side has it's own demi god, the faces and numbers
that are often as recognisable as the colours and stadia. They are [read more]
You know what they are going to do. You don't like it and wouldn't play that way if it meant 80
points a season, but that's what they are going to throw at us and if we're not prepared, it's down
to us.
I don't like it but I'm not going to go on about it because then I'll end up like Arsene
Whinger, always complaining about injustices that his precious little angels have to face when they

For all you football fans on Facebook, there is finally a game on the social media website that
will not only give you a realistic feel, but also allow you to connect with friends doing the
same.
Unruly Media are set to launch this exciting new game, called Star Player, and in the
interactive video sponsored by Heineken below, you can watch AC Milan legend Clarence Seedorf

This Bank Holiday Monday saw a round of non-league matches scheduled with no interference from
the Premier League, and our three matches for you this morning come from this schedule. Our first
match is the Blue Square South match between newly-promoted Tonbridge Angels and title-chasing

Town, and finally we have a match from the Combined Counties League between Farnham Town and
Badshot Lea.
A lot has happened since the sides met on the opening weekend of the Premier League. Liverpool
have hit the metaphorical rock-bottom and are now on their way up again. I don't think this is a
good time to play the Scousers because they really don't have much to lose, which always makes
teams that much more dangerous.

Regular readers will be aware that the thirst for booze knowledge in the Kickette office knows
no bounds. In order to sate this thirst (for your benefit as well as ours, you understand) we force
ourselves to venture deeper and deeper into dark, unexplored territories; places where angels fear
to tread.

Upon spotting a knackered Nissan Primera stranded in the middle of the A10 yesterday morning,
Saint David Beckham of Leytonstone was only too eager to lend a helping hand.
Mr Paul Long, owner of said Nissan, described to BBC Radio the moment that the clouds parted,
choirs of angels burst into voice and Beckham swung low from his seat in heaven to mop the fevered
brow of a mere mortal:
"We were on the A10 roundabout, which was pretty dangerous, and had been stuck there for about
10 minutes.
