This is from Holy Moly but still...

I started a fake football website this week where I've written fictional news articles ala The Onion. Anyway I wrote a clearly fake article about Nicolas Anelka's upcoming autobiography 'It's not me. It's everyone else' which has gone down a storm. So much so that 5,000 people read it on my website today.

Anyway a lot of people have read it and reproduced it around the web. It spread particularly on African and Scandanavian websites. Anyway tonight someone sent me a link to the Charity Shield today where a Finnish commentator, believing my article was real, tells people on live TV that Anelka left Arsenal because he claims in his autobiography (which I flipping wrote) that Vieira struck him round the face with his penis after Arsenal played Fulham.

My Finnish friend Vix translated:-

"The commentator says how in an autobiography that Anelka wrote he told of a time when him and Vieira didn't get on. There was some goal that Anelka missed and Vieira took the piss. After the game Viera hit Anelka with his bits down below! Apparently this is all exclusive from his tell-all autobiography..."

People are idiots.

does this still work? transfer talk on the other thread seems to be frowned upon.

got tickets for Wolves at Hull, it'll be so sweet if we've signed Hunt the week before

3m for a trying little bugger like him that can still put in a decent cross- not bad, that,

last time I checked the Express and Star we might've upped the bid a little, but he'd be a great buy for us I think.

Course if City sell him it'll be proof that they're fucked and they know they are.

to lose money on him is ridiculous from their point of view though, he's been pretty successful i thought?

Their best player since he's been there, perhaps excepting Jimmy B's all too brief cameo. I think Hunt staying or going will be an indicator of just how bad their wage bill/finances are.

well it look slike he's going alright, but the fee is disputed- hull claiming 7m, wolves saying 'yeah, if it makes you feel better then fine we'll say that'
