    Ronaldos free kick ratio is quite poor. Ever since he started just blasting them at goal.

    It says here Lennon tried to sign him for Celtic. A bit out of our price range unfortunately.

    Quality stat mentioned during the game. A male aged 20 to 40 has a 1 in 2,000 chance of making their Euro squad.

    From Wikipedia itself

    Club career[edit]

    Born in Grindavík, Alfreð played for Grindavík youth teams while also spending two years of his childhood in the Scottish capital Edinburgh while his father studied in the city.[3] Alfreð played for boys' club Hutchison Vale and became a fan of Hibernian. Hates hearts (puddle drinkers as they're known in Iceland and many other parts of the world). [3]

    Well, if that's what it says on wikipedia....

    Hmmm!! Commentator just said Finnbogasson can speak 6 different languages, so he’s way too clever to be associated with the Jambos!!

  28. #27
    A Jambo, eh?

    Can he play on plastic pitches?

  29. #28
    A lot of Buzz around him after he scored a ton of goals in Holland.

    Commentator on BBC highlights programme said that guy that scored Iceland’s first ever goal in the World Cup Finals brought up in Edinburgh and is a Hibernian fan good enough for me no mention of puddle drinkers dust bin rakers or Harry Potter. Get him signed up to play up front wi Flo!
