I couldn't think of a forum to put this on, so I decided to put it on here.
I was in Glasgow with my little brother, who's nine, and he wanted to get a new phone as his old one had broken. So, after ages and ages of saving up, he wanted to go into Glasgow with me. The one he wanted was a Nokia 3510i. (a phone with a camera.)
Anyway, we were walking around in Glasgow when my little brother saw 'The Orange Shop.' He decided to go there to get his new phone so we headed in that direction. As we were walking, he was so excited that he broke into a sprint and I let him go. I saw him enter the Orange shop and then about five seconds later I saw a tall man wearing an orange top pull him out. Naturally, I ran towards my little brother and asked the man 'What is going on?' He replied 'He cannot come into the shop wearing that', and he pointed to his Manchester United shirt. So I replied 'What's wrong with his shirt?' The man said 'look who it's sponsored by.' So I looked down at the sponsor in the middle, it was Vodafone. The man said 'He cannot advertise Vodafone in an Orange shop.' So at that moment I turned around grabbed my brother and walked away. So later on, we found a 'T - Mobile' shop. So we entered cautiosly and when we got in the manager welcomed us in nicely, not taking any notice of my little brother's shirt. He ended up buying the phone that he wanted from that shop.
The morale of the story: Never buy from the Orange Shop.

It's all about financial allocation; I doubt China and Russia put as much cash into their football teams into the US teams, and you must remember the UK teams have been around for decades and are therefore more well known and established to bring up players and import new ones.

But what for China?
And I was just following this rule of averages, m'lad.

No.
Russia is a communist country. That explains itself.
America have the best American football and ice hockey teams in the world by far, yes?
And China. Well, they're just China.

What's slightly more worrying is... what does a 9 year old need a mobile phone for?
What's wrong with going and knocking on your mates' doors?

Bull. By the law of averages you SHOULD have a better team, having between 10 and 11 times more people, so there should be more natural talent.
We aren't jealous of English teams, sure Arsenal are better than Rangers or Celtic, but lets face it, Celtic got to a European final last year and appear to be on course again this year. Man Utd are completely out!
And nothing ever takes away from the fact that the first British team to win a European competition, the greatest ever British team, was the Lisbon Lions Celtic squad. They genuinely were one of the greatest teams ever to grace the earth.
