morphine Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hey junnnne just let her into you heart. Remember, when mustard was great in 1972. Think about it.... Dunno about the rest, but 1972 obviously means Nike. So here's my guess: in JUNE it will be announced we will be keep HEART we will wear MUSTARD NIKE kits. *dunno about the mustard bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Falastur Posted May 23, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Technically, Nike was founded in 1971. It just launched its first clothes line in 1972. Alright, my turn. So, the first clue is obviously the misquoted lyrics from the song Hey Jude. Now, this gives us two clues: 1) the obvious use of the word "June" instead of "Jude", 2) the fact that the song is Hey Jude. I agree with Morphine, the June bit is obviously referencing that the event will happen in June. As for Hey Jude, that was a song written by The Beatles in 1968. Let's skip over the Beatles part for now and look at 1968. 1968 was most famous surely for the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. And who was MLKJ assassinated by? Why, James Earl Ray of course, as everyone surely knows. As everyone equally knows that James Earl Ray was himself done in by a nasty bout of Hepatitis C. So Jimmy did in by the big C. Jimmy...C...J..C...Why, that's Joe Cole of course, just released by West Ham, and a free agent. But it doesn't stop there. The sheikh also talks about mustard. Being an ill-educated pom, I therefore googled "Australian mustard" and instantly got "Keen's", which must surely be the most important mustard in Australia because Google. So Keen's is a clue too. Now, we also know that we're looking for a company founded in 1972. Again, a quick search of Australian companies founded in 1972 leads me to Red Rooster, that giant of Australian fast food which I have never, ever heard of before. And what do Red Rooster sell? Why, chicken of course. But wait, who also sells chicken? It couldn't be Venkys, the Indian company which bought Blackburn and destroyed them by the appointment of Steve Kean, could it? Why yes it could, so we see that our "Keen's" clue was actually "Kean", meaning Steve Kean. As if any more confirmation was needed, Venky's was also founded in 1971, just like Nike, and close enough to 1972 that I am going to pretend they are the same year and say that this categorically and irrefutably proves my assertion. So what about The Beatles, you ask? Well it just so happens that Google tells me that Japanese beetles are considered to be a perfect delicacy for chickens, linking this all back to the Venky's clue, and which draws us to our final clue - Japan. So put it all together and you realise that there was only ever one solution to this riddle. In June, the Heart are going to be sold on to Venky's, Steve Kean is going to be appointed as manager with Joe Cole as marquee signing, and then the club will be moved to Japan. Mystery solved. No need to praise my deductive skills, I'm aware of my talent. They don't call me Falastur Sherlock Marple Taggart Morse Poirot Professor Layton Dick Tracy Batman Scooby Doo McFalastur for nothing.

Shahanga Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) I for one though am looking forward to seeing Port of Melbourne full of our secretly built sky blue ships (with mustard trim), based on a 1972 design, launched by Paul McCartney; that will set forth from Melbourne on the 1st of June to scientifically harvest whale hearts. The "players" signed, are in fact the crew of these ships. There is also a reason the marquee hasn't been announced yet. That will be a hitherto unknown (in football circles at least) by the name of Ahab. Edited May 23, 2014 by Shahanga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theresonlyonebzamora Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Just because Lampard is listed as 'released' doesn't mean he's left the club just means he's out of contract "Clubs today submitted their list of retained and released players ahead of the summer transfer window and the Blues trio are among the three most notable names on the document. However it does not yet mean none of them will be turning out for Chelsea next season, with the list simply naming those players out of contract, who have yet to sign an extension" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSeater Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 June 17 1972. 5 White House operatives are arrested as a part of the Watergate Scandal. The number 5 will be the jersey number of our Australian marquee. The Watergate scandal took place in the USA, which is where our Australian marquee will be moving from. The US president at the centre of the scandal was Richard Nixon. On June 17 the number 5 jersey will be held aloft by new Australian marquee and Melbourne Heart fan favourite Richard Garcia, who will make a shock return to the A League from US 2nd Division club Minnesota United.

Murfy1 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) English losses likely to pay dividends for Melbourne club 26 May 2014 John Stensholt Spending on youth development, community and a possible player academy by the new owners of A-League club Melbourne Heart could help English Premier League giant Manchester City pass stringent European financial tests. Manchester City, which bought an 80 per cent stake in the Heart in January, was earlier this month hit with a record €60 million ($88.6 million) fine as well as restrictions on future squad, salary and transfers for not complying with European football financial fair play regulations, designed to curb spending by wealthy clubs. Governing body UEFA made the decision after City, owned by the Abu Dhabi ruling family, made losses of £149.5 million ($272.6 million) between 2011 and 2013. City was unable to argue that some of its spending or losses should have been exempt and so the club exceeded the UEFA threshold of losses of up to €45 million in that two-year period. But English lawyer Daniel Geey, a football law specialist with Field Fisher Waterhouse in London, said Manchester City, and other clubs, could spend funds on several development projects that would not count towards financial losses measured for financial fair play purposes. “It depends on the ownership of the entity in question and if that is the entity that has to comply with FFP, spending on matters such as stadiums, community and youth development are exempt [from FFP considerations].” SPENDING ‘DEDUCTIBLE’ It means that development spending could, in effect, be “deducted” from an overall financial loss to ensure a loss for financial fair play purposes is below a limit set by UEFA. Company records show the Heart is 80 per cent owned by City’s owners, City Football Group, with the remainder owned by four directors, Melbourne Storm chairman Bart Campbell, New Zealand entrepreneur Michael Watt, BRW Rich List member Gerry Ryan and Matthew Tripp, who recently bought the Beteasy wagering business. City officials said a major priority with the Melbourne Heart as well as commercial opportunities would be developing young players. A $20 million youth academy project has been mooted. Neither City nor Heart officials responded to inquiries. City also owns the New York City Major League Soccer club and last week bought a 20 per cent stake in Japanese team Yokohama F-Marinos. City and Heart share some common board directors. However, one blow for City’s international expansion could be a decision by the club to agree as part of its settlement “that revenues from the sale of assets within their group structure will not be included in future break-even calculations”. British newspapers reported earlier this year that City had claimed £22.45 million worth of deductions in its 2013 accounts for selling its intellectual property to “related parties”, which presumably included its New York team. NEW NAME City is set to change the Heart’s name to Melbourne City as part of its global branding strategy. Its global marketing division, run from London, will source sponsorship and marketing opportunities for all its clubs, including Melbourne. City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak said in a video interview last week that City would break even financially in 2014 and make a small profit next year. He also said City aimed to make its Melbourne venture “a commercial success . . . and I have no doubt that with the resources we have both in terms of human capital and investment, we will make Melbourne another successful club both on and off the field.” Separately, The Australian Financial Review last week revealed documents showing Etihad, the airline which is also owned by the Abu Dhabi ruling family, had its record £400 million deal for naming rights to the team shirt and stadium with City covered by the “Executive Council”, an apparent reference to the Abu Dhabi government. http://www.afr.com/p/lifestyle/sport/english_losses_likely_to_pay_dividends_SFj5cMQImRxN2AnE43pk5N Edited May 25, 2014 by Murfy1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
