Annoying kids and berks from Yarmouth who never go to matches. -
His autobiography is entitled "Sorte Svin" (or Black Pig!) and it''s publisher blurb states: Soccer player David Nielsen (b. 1976) recounts his SOCCER play with scandal, brawl and excesses of nightlife and a host of other things from the professional football world back stage Sounds a fascinating read!

More gold on the man, the legend.... By April 2004, David Nielsen and fellow AaB teammate Jimmy Nielsen had raked up a debt of €201,000 with bookmakers in Aalborg.[9] AaB director Lynge Jacobsen decided to help out financially and arranged for gambling addiction counselling. In his 2008 autobiography, Nielsen admitted playing to deliberately lose a Superliga match between AaB and his former club F.C. Copenhagen in May 2004. As AaB had lost the Danish Cup final to F.C. Copenhagen earlier that year, winning the Superliga would propel F.C. Copenhagen into the UEFA Champions League and hand their UEFA Cup-berth as the Danish Cup winners on to the losing finalists from AaB. Nielsen was also motivated by his gambling debts,[10] as UEFA Cup qualification would wield him a personnal DKK300,000 bonus.[11] AaB and F.C. Copenhagen drew the match, and F.C. Copenhagen eventually won the 2003-04 Superliga championship by one point. In February 2005, Nielsen was sacked by AaB when he physically attacked team-mate Allan Gaarde during a training session, leaving him with a concussion.[9] Nielsen later explained in his autobiography that Gaarde was "pretentious... talking loudly about wine in Italian. "I told him: ''The next time you speak Italian I will break you in half. You''re not f***ing Italian - you spent eight months there.'' So when he did it again I decided to break his shitting legs like sticks. I jumped at him and bang. Jackpot. Felt good." As young people woul dsay - respect, innit!

I''m quite wealthy and don''t mind telling people about it. Are there any other wealthy, boastful fans out there? -
River Plate, especially for the Boca Juniors derby games.

Does ucl canary stand for University College London Canary? If yes, then I wouldn''t be banging on about "having a job". You''re either a soap doging student or no mark "lecturer" who has to "work" 2-3 hours week an donly gets 26 weeks holiday a year. Love, kisses and hair stroking Monty

Another post about City''s best ever Jonny Foriegner got me thinking. He might have been useless as soon as we signed him up permanently BUT.... From "Flown the Nest" ...In May 2004, David was embroiled in a gambling scandal along with AB''s keeper Jimmy Nielson. David''s name was splashed across the front pages of Denmark''s national newspapers after his new club admitted at a press conference that their star striker and long-serving goalkeeper had accumulated debts of 1.6 million Danish krona (£160,000) with a local betting shop. So big was the pair''s level of credit with the Aalborg bookies, the shop was forced to close for three weeks until the outstanding debts were cleared. It was claimed the two players'' interest in betting on football doubles (predicting the full-time scores of two games) were behind the shop''s closure, and the board of directors at Aalborg decided to name and shame the pair, as well as setting up counselling sessions on gambling problems. The club stressed that they had not done anything illegal but that counselling sessions would be provided to help identify any gambling addictions. At the time, David Nielsen was Aalborg''s second top scorer this season with six goals from his 22 appearances and with the club fifth in the table, their Director of Sport Lynge Jacobsen is more than happy with the pair''s efforts on the pitch. "Both of them have performed well and I do not believe that their playing has been detrimentally affected," said Jacobsen. David was sacked by Aalborg in mid-February 2005 after assaulting a team-mate during training. Midfielder Allan Gaarde was left with concussion after reportedly being punched in the face by Nielsen in an ugly bust-up on Monday 14th February. The attack left Aalborg with little option but to effectively sack their star striker who was their top scorer with eight goals from his 21 Aalborg outings this season. Aalborg announced Nielsen''s sacking in an official statement on their web-site with Gaarde claiming he has no recollection of the incident at all after being knocked out by Nielsen''s flying fist. In November 2008, Nielsen admitted match-fixing, throwing a game on purpose when his side AaB played FC Copenhagen in May 2004. Nielsen''s motivation to cheat came from massive gambling debts... They just don''t make ''em like that anymore! I hate these squeaky clean anodyne modern footballers. DN was a last hurrah for proper old school gambling, fugting, womanising, boozing players. David Neilsen, we salute you!

NCFC adopts Ryanair approach?
Montgomery Bumpkin replied to Darlo dumplin’'s topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I can''t see any problem with this whatsoever. Naaaridgge is a local club for local people - FACT! If you live in Norwich, nip down to the ticket office, no booking fee. If you live in Lahdidah London and can''t send your one of your lackies up in the Bentley, cough up. -
NCFC Crest.. Should it be changed?
Montgomery Bumpkin replied to Captain Fantastic's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I think we should ditch this tired old birdy/castle combo of favour of a Wedgewood style head and shoulders bas-relief of our greatest ever chairman, Robert Chase. Classy! -
