Calcio

Let’s get it out of the way straight off the bat. I don’t really like Italian football.

Yes, it’s very technical and there are plenty of aspects to be admired, but I largely find it dull, boring, negative, cynical and rarely fulfilling. “So why are you bothering to read a book on the history of Italian football then you dickhead?” I hear you cry. Well, you’ve gotta give it a chance haven’t you? It surely can’t all be cynical defending, 0-0 draws, fixed matches and financial basket cases.

Can it?

Gandermonium Film Review - 'Das Wunder von Bern'

Now, I know what you’re all thinking. Your’re thinking is this some kind of Miracle that could easily relate to the way Bernie Ecclestone has made his fame and fortune over the years, or his bird pulling techniques at the grand age of 82. Or for that matter, how he indeed made his millions, over the years.  Sadly viewers of Gandermonium, you are indeed correct that is a miracle in itself. But I can’t divulge such information, as let’s face it, if I knew how it did, especially the bird pulling techniques, I wouldn’t be bringing you a write up on the film, that is The Miracle of Bern. After all this is about FOOTBALL, not a write up about some old millionaire duffer.

The Dead Poets Society of Gandermonium.

So what's it all about then, eh..?

Its, OK you don't need to be a member..
I said to the fella’s (Taz, Frakey & Dukey) a few weeks back, well actually come to think it was the 2nd to last game of the season, that cometh the summer months we should have a little get together at Juan Towers.

Come on, what else is there to do in the passing Summer months, apart from watching football related films, and reading football books to get our fix?

Player news, numero dos...

I know, I know it’s a little late in the day to be updating with news that hit the official site over a week ago, but that’s just how we roll! Better late than never though.

So here we are again,  Dos has continued to pull in some further BIG names into the squad for the 2013/ 2014 campaign. Well it certainly seems to me that his is defiantly going for it this year. With the two big strikers having signed on the dotted line, again Mr D seems to have worked his magic and pulled in a further two big names. So let’s get down to some Gandermonium business and give you a little Bio on each of the signings and maybe if we are feeling generous a little clip of the lads in action.

Welcome to the second part of our little story about 3 of the old Gandermonium crew finding themselves adrift in a footballing wilderness before stumbling upon a Ukranian Premier League game to slake their thirst for a match. ANY match.

So, are you ready for the next thrilling installment? Are you sure? Then you may proceed...
