what are the chances of every player in a team being called Hitachi? Especially in brazil! In japan i imagine its common-place

Oddly enough, it's quite unlikely - there are no notable people named Hitachi in Japanese history (unlike, say, Toyota or Suzuki), whilst it's also unlikely that people would be named after the Hitachi province (like people are named after Nagano, Chiba, Miyagi etc) as that became part of the Ibaraki Prefecture in the 1870s.

I may have been joking....

One nervous man tonight:

The odds are due to some promotion, apparently.
 
That's a penny stake?

(101^8) * £0.01 = £108,285,670,562,808.01 (108 trillion)

That would bankrupt a small country. Coral must have a payout limit.
 
That bloke lost a million quid because Barcelona got beaten! <laugh>
That's their third loss this season in all competitions.
 
Apologies Washy, I've somehow managed to balls up the thread merge. Can you post your link in here again, I moved it as it's not football related <ok>
 
hi guys

My son is doing a bike ride from Leeds to Berlin to raise money for the charity Sense.

I put this on my own board Sunderland then the Newcastle lads chipped in and added it as a sticky on their place , now Norwich have done the same.

It would be nice if all of the permier league boards could do like wise.

He is doing 600 miles in 8 days with 50 0ther riders aiming to get £20,000 in total for Sense the charity for the daf blind community 9Some times called refereees!)

If you can give lats make this lad the official not 606 charity rider in the event please give at:

Went into Washy's history, saw he posted it on 10/2. Went back to that date in this thread and hey presto.
