    Whoever compiled that jumble of words in the Guardian article must be suffering from a severe bout of SETI syndrome. @ask Frank.
    Edit: The link's < 30, the article's not. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Man Utd have drawn Barcelona in the Europe League play-offs.
    Good luck with that :)

    Liverpool up for sale. Will be interesting to hear what the Scousers have to say if oil money buys them.

    Paul McCartney. But even he isn’t rich when it comes to football clubs nowadays.

    Argentinian Cup Final Abandoned.
    Ten players were sent off as Racing Club won a Champions Trophy final that ended early because Boca Juniors had only six players on the pitch.

    Seven Boca players were dismissed, including two on the bench, with Racing leading 2-1 when the game was stopped.

    Rules state a match cannot continue if a team have fewer than seven players.

    Carlos Alcaraz's 118th-minute winner in San Luis was the flash point for the major incident when he celebrated in front of the Boca fans.

    The Boca players surrounded him, grabbing him by the ear and throwing the ball at him.

    Referee Facundo Tello sent off Alcaraz along with five Boca players, including Dario Benedetto, an unused substitute, and Carlos Zambrano, who had been replaced earlier. Jonathan Galvan, an unused Racing substitute, was also shown a red card.

    Boca's Sebastian Villa and Racing's Johan Carbonero were dismissed in the 95th minute after an argument, while Boca's Alan Varela was shown a second yellow five minutes later.

    Earlier, Norberto Briasco opened the scoring for Boca before Racing's Matias Rojas equalised in the first half.

    Argentine Tello will officiate at the World Cup which starts on 20 November.

    It’s South American passion. It’s ok. You wait till the World Cup starts. For other countries it’s dirty play.

    You sure about that? You're implying Tom Morris owns them.

    They're owned by Simon Arora, who is worth £2.26b and doesn't live in Liverpool (as far as I'm aware).
