I think that to sign Petrov would be great. His pace and his ability to make assists are just outstanding.

Last season Athletico won twice against Barca - 2:1 H and 3:1 A - with both times Petrov being the man of the match...In the first game in Madrid all Barca stars played. This fact reveals something about his abilities. To be sure, it's not easy to be the man of the match in the presence of Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Torres, Maxi Rodrigues...
But I doubt that Athletico would let him go. Their new manager insists that he needs Petrov for he's among the best LW in Europe...

i dont think Athletico Madrid are in the UEFA cup this season so the chance of european football may attract him and the chance to join up with Berbie could also make us a very attractive option to the player himself

I wouldn't describe Petrov as a rough diamond, he's the perfect player for us, quick, direct, puts a lovely cross in and has an eye for goal as well. The beauty is that he can also play up front if required. TBH, I haven't heard anything at all about signing him, none of my sources have ever mentioned him as a possible signing........so expect to see him in a lilywhite shirt very soon!

Does the missus require vaccinations and quarantine before she leaves and enters the country or just a vetinary certificate? ;)

The clerk behind the Centrelink desk says, "Your timing is excellent. We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a chauffeur/bodyguard for his nymphomaniac daughter. You'll have to drive around in his Mercedes, but he'll supply all of your clothes.
Because of the long hours, meals will be provided. You'll be expected to escort her on her overseas holiday trips. You'll have a two-bedroom apartment above the garage.
The starting salary is $200,000 a year".

All of a sudden the South African drinks his beer, takes off his diamond encrusted watch, pulls out a gun shoots the watch to pieces. He says "In Seth Efrika we have so many diamonds that we don't need to wear the same diamond twice".
The Kiwi (obviously impressed by this) drinks his beer throw his glass into the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the glass to pieces. He says "Wull mate, in Niw Zulland we have so much sand to make the glass that we don't need to drink out of the same cup twice".

This is a real classic!
Three Kiwis and three Aussies are travelling by train to a rugby game. At the station, the three Kiwis each buy a ticket and watch with bewilderment as the three Aussiesbuy only a single ticket between them.
"How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asks a Kiwi.
"Watch and you’ll see", answers the Aussie.
They all board the train. The Kiwis take their respective seats but all three Aussies cram into a bathroom and close the door behind them. Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the bathroom door and says, "Ticket please". The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.
The Kiwis see this and agree it was quite a clever plan. So after the game, the Kiwis decide to copy the Aussies on the return trip and save some money, (being clever with money and all that).
When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for their return trip. To their astonishment, the Aussies don’t buy a ticket at all. "How are you going to travel ‘without’ a ticket?" asks one perplexed Kiwi. "Watch and you’ll see", answers a Aussie. When they board the train, the three Kiwis cram into a bathroom and the Aussies cram into another nearby. The train departs. Shortly afterwards, one of the Aussies leaves and walks over to the bathroom where the Kiwis are hiding.
He knocks on the door and says, "Tickets please"!!!!! :D :D :D

There's a Kiwi rugby fan, an Australian rugby fan and a beautiful woman sitting next to each other on a train.
The train enters a tunnel and everything gets dark. Suddenly there is a kissing sound and then a slap! The woman and the Kiwi are sitting there looking perplexed. The Kiwi is bent over holding his face which is red from an apparent slap.
The Kiwi is thinking, "That Australian must have tried to kiss this lady, she thought it was me and slapped me."
The lady was thinking, "That Kiwi must have moved to kiss me and kissed the Australian instead and got slapped."
The Australian was thinking to himself.... "If this train goes through another tunnel, I could make another kissing sound and slap that ****ing Kiwi in the head again." :D :eek:

Actually i have just found a translation site. Here is the story ranslated, it sounds quite interesting.
'The Athletic one of Madrid does not have nor a minute of breathing. The preceding weeks have been for the colchoneros a constant of information that aimed at the interest of diverse European clubs to take control of the services of some of their more important players. To the Kezman, Maxi, Pablo or Fernando Torres will be necessary to add the one to him of Martin Petrov again. The Bulgarian player is in the front sight of one of the great clubs of the “Premier English League”. One is the Totteham London Hotspurs, that, according to the British press prepares a supply by the Bulgarian player to reinforce its group. The edition of yesterday of the 'Daily “Mirror” assured that the “Spurs” very is interested in taking control of the left-handed end although the season completed during the course passed in the Athletic one of Madrid was not all the good one that it had been desired. Manager of the capital equipment, Martin Jol, wants that rojiblanco reinforces its group and prepares a supply with the money entered after the sale from Michael Carrick the Manchester United in which it obtained almost 22 million euros. The team of White Hart Line has designed an ambitious project facing the season that is approached with incorporations like the one of the native from Ivory Coast Didier Zokora (originating of Saint Ettienne) or of the Bulgarian Dimitar Berbatov. Indeed this one, is one of the reclamations to convince to Petrov so that it undertakes the English adventure: to have a compatriot in the group. Aguirre has him It is not the first time that is spoken of a possible exit of Petrov of the equipment. During the last weeks, the Bulgarian has counted with the offers of diverse clubs. The Turkish Galatasaray went first in entering the arena, Eric Gerets, old trainer his in Germany, wanted to him to its side. In spite of it, the most interested it was the Fiorentina. Nevertheless, Javier Aguirre has communicated to the direction of the colchonero club as well as the own player who counts on like one of the strong men of the project. On the other hand, the club understands that the interior has to explode after one season of connection
