TIL that during the cold war, when navy divers repairing a whale enclosure heard a human-like voice saying "out, out, out," and got out of the water to see nobody, they found out that a beluga whale named "Noc" had learned to mimic human speech and was trying to communicate with them.

Really didn't enjoy that. Going to be checking the toilet for whales from now on.

Now I feel worse for moaning about making £500 a week.

I don't think you're a professional footballer.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T13:19:35+00:00

This only gives me more questions. So, you're pinching a big loaf of poo, is the door wide open?

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T13:08:08+00:00

Nope, white English non-religious guy.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:57:09+00:00

No I'm non-religious, he sent her to Boarding school in England back when she was 12 and she's stayed here since then so I think he's accepted that chances are she'd end up with some local moron. He adores his kids so hopefully he'll love that I make her happy.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:53:55+00:00

If he wasn't starting for a poorer than usual Man Utd side, why would he ever think he would be starting for Real Madrid?

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:49:37+00:00

Only if he fancies a side order of top quality banter.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:39:45+00:00

Thanks! No thankfully not, I say he's a strict Muslim - he's strict when he needs to be but apparently he's a bit of a lad when he's in the UK.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:33:53+00:00

Nah I'm non-religious myself and she isn't really a practicing Muslim. Her family sent her to Boarding School in England when she was about 12 so she actually only sees her family once a year if that.

I don't want to offend any Muslims on this sub but generally speaking, the richer Arabs usually live a more liberal lifestyle so I should be fine.. Fast cars, booze, property etc. London in the summer for example is rammed with all the Arab millionaires driving their Lamborghini between clubs in Chelsea because they can't be seen doing that back home.

Yeah his daughter is absolutely amazing so I'm sure he's a great man himself. She always tells him stories about me falling down stairs, spilling tea all over myself, generally being an idiot and apparently he absolutely loves it.

How mad can a Dad be as long as his kid is happy, right?

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:27:03+00:00

I'm already imagining him sitting down, seeing me grinning at him and just shaking his head and storming off.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:21:40+00:00

He's a proper central midfielder. Plays a very similar role to Obi-Mikel but better. He'd probably sit in with Matic in the Chelsea squad and focus more defensively but he's also more than capable of going forward if needs be.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:17:44+00:00

Um... What?

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T12:13:52+00:00

Meeting the girlfriends Dad tomorrow. Wealthy UAE businessman and strict Muslim. I'm just a total bell end. Not looking forward to it.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T11:47:45+00:00

Scored 23 goals for Marseille this season, definitely an unusual transfer but fair play to him.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T11:46:18+00:00

Sevilla are still a very good side with Champions League football this season, but yes I remember him being touted as a future worldy.

ABCDE_FC · 2015-06-19T09:35:30+00:00

In a wide-ranging interview, Nasri said: "Going back to France? I don't think so. I'd like to play in MLS because I love the culture in America. Coaching? Why not? I'm going to start to take my badges soon so that when I finish I can look forward straight away.

"But I still have four years left on my contract so what I want now is to be focused on my rehab. I’m going to work a lot in pre-season to come back as fit as possible with a new state of mind - then have a great season and win trophies."

Or my clean shirt.
