unbelievable sports quotes!

[caller]

A classic from Mark Schwarzer who has just joined, erm, Fulham from Middlesborough -

"Although I had other offers from some great clubs throughout Europe, it didn't take long to make a decision about joining Fulham." (source: BBC)

Yeah, right!

Anyone got anymore?

it was the v.i.p pass to harrods that swung it

plus with earls court just around the corner, it'll be just like going home

I am the same Caller, I could not believe that he signed for Fulham when I heard yesterday. There was previous talk about him going to Germany etc over the past few weeks. But Fulham, perhaps he has aspirations on playing in the Championship next year.

[BaaBaa.]

He hasnt exactly left Real Madrid to go to Fulham though has he.
I know where I'd rather live.

This one's more of a 'Colemanballs' by big Phil after today's thrashing of Middlesboro...

"we changed many players but those that were on the pitch played better than those that were not on the field".

[Randy Cornhole]

Unknown: "I think the manager will pull him off at half time"
Brian (pit bull) Moore: "Well that certainly beats half an orange and a drink of water"

[Thai Tam]

The original source is Rodney Marsh before an England international:

Alf Ramsay: "If things are not going too well, I might have to pull you off at half time."

Rodney Marsh: " Wow! At Manchester City all we ever get is an orange."

[caller]

And wasn't it Gordon Strachan, when asked by a journalist if, "he could have a word," answered, "velocity."

Or is that one an urban myth?

[Thai Tam]

Yes, but I think the interviewer asked if he could have a "quick word".

[chelsea]

Brian Moore was the best when the Scottish Teams were winning some of the European Cups.
It was always a British victory when they won, and was always a bad loss for the Scottish when they lost.

[Super Joe]

Anyone see the interview with Michel Platini the other day ??

Interviewer: "Michel, what do you think about football down at White Hart Lane ?"
Platini: "Yes, I think it would be a good idea"
