Introduction

Love playing and watching football. Have plenty of playing partners but few watching partners so I decide to start my own group whose sole aim is to watch matches until the next World Cup!!!

Who is your favorite team in the World?

Don't have one. I love the US. I love Man U although I have a love hate relationship. Love Sao Paolo.

Who is your favorite player in the World?

So many, when I was a kid, Daniele Massaro and Juninho Paulista. For the past few years since that horrible season at Man U, it has been Diego Forlan.

Which one is your favorite competition? Your favorite league?

EPL, love the air game. Champions League, Copa Libertadores de America, Copa America, Euro Cup and of course the World Cup!!!

Best game you have seen in your life?

1994 Champions League, Milan v Barcelona. Milan was going in as the underdog as a low scoring defensive Italian side and Barcelona was the high scoring favorite. Everyone predicted the score would be Barca 4 Milan 0. Well the score the reverse!

  • Hello Francisco and congratulations on a wonderful meetup! I'm a vegan too (of 40 years!) and would love to join...if only I could, since I've passed my primary. lol!
    It may take longer than other categories but eventually you'll get more vegetarians to join and learn from you to be vegan. There may be more veggie people to join than people who like, and/or can, do rough sports. This too may take longer but they'll come around if you are patient. Good luck! :)

  • Hey Francisco!

    It turns out that I am one of those late requests for the Banf film festival. Sorry! :( DO you have an extra ticket for the Tuesday showing or do I need to buy the ticket on my own?
