HUMOR: A UK Soccer Joke...

[Old No7]

Since my son is a big Red Devils fan, I had to send this to him first...

Cheers!

A famous soccer scout in the UK flies over to Baghdad to watch a young Iraqi play football. He is suitably impressed and arranges for him to join the squad at Old Trafford. Two weeks later, Manchester United are 2-0 down at Chelsea with less than 20 minutes left...

The manager gives the young Iraqi striker the nod and on he goes. The lad is a sensation, scores 3 goals and wins the game for Manchester United! The fans are delighted, the players and coaches are delighted and the media love the new star. When the player comes off the pitch, he phones his Mum to tell her about his first day in English football.

'Hello Mum, guess what?' he says (in an Iraqi accent). 'I played for almost 20 minutes today. We were 2-0 down but I scored 3 and we won! Everybody loves me, the fans, the media -- they all love me now!'

'Wonderful,' says his Mum, 'But let me tell you about our day... Your father got shot in the street and robbed, your sister and I were ambushed and beaten, and your younger brother has joined a gang of looters -- and all while you were out having such a great time.'

The young lad is very upset, 'What can I say Mum, but gee, I'm so sorry...'

'Sorry?!!! Sorry?!!!' says his Mum...

'It's your bloody fault we moved to Manchester in the first place!'

So what team did "Onslow" have on his hat? It was a letter "F" over a letter "H" I think. Or was that a rugby team?

That's because he stalks Cricket teams...













Or at least that's what he's trying to convince the Yard he's about when takling about "His Arsenal"...

Onslow's cap was from Fulton Hogan, a New Zealand earthmoving company. Since he was from Merseyside Onslow would have supported Liverpool or Everton.
