View quotes by F E Smith (first Earl Of Birkenhead)

That is totally unacceptable to us and we have no option but to lodge a formal complaint [on the actions of football agent Peter Harrison]
View quotes by Keith Lamb

I don't follow football, I just love the name Aston Villa. Here in England you have other footballing entities like Manchester and Arsenal and Chelsea
View quotes by Tom Hanks

We believe it is far too lenient and sends out the wrong message about drugs in football [on the small ban Mutu got for testing positive for cocaine]
View quotes by Peter Kenyon

These so-called big stars are people we are supposed to be looking up to. Well they are weak and soft.

Priorities have changed in football and they are being dictated to by their wives.
View quotes by Roy Keane

I know I can't go on forever - how can I forget it when my so-called team-mates keep asking me which king was on the throne when I started and what football was like in the Dark Ages!
View quotes by Les Ferdinand

Conventional wisdom notwithstanding, there is no reason either in football or in poetry why the two should not meet in a man's life if he has the weight and cares about the words.
View quotes by Archibald MacLeish

I'm not a defender of old or new football managers. I believe in good ones and bad ones, those that achieve success and those that don't. Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one
View quotes by Jose Mourinho

View quotes by Michael Parkinson

What was interesting was that virtually all the leaders - because there wasn't a huge burning issue, actually at the council - were standing around talking about football in the corridors

Football, wherein is nothing but beastly fury and extreme violence, whereoth proceedeth hurt, and consequently rancour and malice do remain with them that be wounded.
View quotes by Phillip Stubbes

View quotes by Peter Harrison

View quotes by Gordon Strachan

I've got a voice on each shoulder - one saying go home and stop being ridiculous, the other saying I might regret that decision. Golf and my body don't particularly go together, which is a bit of a bummer. I should have been England football captain
View quotes by David Howell

I was up the front taking pictures, waving, yelling, 'Dad's right here, smile for this flick, little man. I'm proud of you.' Talking about his son's football game
View quotes by Busta Rhymes

There is a movement in club football, which I don't necessarily consider a prime example of solidarity, because it leads us to conclude the rich are getting richer and they are using everything in the market to create an exodus from Africa.
View quotes by Sepp Blatter

'I feel close to the rebelliousness and vigour of the youth here. Perhaps time will separate us, but nobody can deny that here, behind the windows of Manchester, there is an insane love of football, of celebration and of music.'
View quotes by Eric Cantona

Tony Blair was on Football Focus the other week and named me as one of his favourite players. My father-in-law phoned me and said 'I've never heard such rubbish!' - but I think it's great. I voted Lib-Dem last time but I'm Labour again now
View quotes by Arjan De Zeeuw

View quotes by Jose Mourinho
