May a curse of swerving business jets block your runway!

From the BBC:
Note: This article contains a word some readers may find offensive

Liverpool are among six Premier League clubs reportedly supporting plans to expand the Champions League group stage to 32 teams, a proposal which could apparently see the abolition of FA Cup replays and the removal of the second leg of the League Cup semi-final.

"Today I read the top clubs want more games in the Champions League," said Klopp. "I am not involved in these plans. That's absolute bollocks."
Credit to the BBC for publishing it word for word, and credit to Klopp for his command of English.

Actually quite a few of his press conferences/interviews contain industrial language, another reason why we love him ^:)^

Edit- A few examples :D

Where United lead, others follow.

Was the same with The European Cup (Champions League).

They're not very English.

When you think of it, they aren't very Scots either.

Being more of a fan of Rugby I don't really follow Football (apart from when I am on Amorgos And I have to support Olympiakos) so I really don't understand why this is happening in British/European Football; https://news.sky.com/story/racist-incid ... s-11891620 :-q
