Wondered Brian,

> what's the proper response to Baaaa!?  

Humbug. :-)

As for the astonishment about my foible for football: Football is simply
a beautiful sport. It's passionate, it's calculating, it's dirty, it's
clean, it's rough, it's poetry, it's brutal, it's sensitive, it's
honest, it's tricksy, it's enmity, it's camaraderie, it's fury, it's
forgiveness, it's - well actually, it's rather obviously the only
possible thing that could ever be behind that door in the Ministry of
Magic. Love is just a sub-category.

Ach - and about Malcom Glazer: Mr. Glazer already had quite a rep in the
US sports world after doing some bizarre things with his coaching staff
before he ended up wining the Superbowl. For us Americans, hearing that
he'd decided to take over ManU was a bit like us Europeans hearing that
Voldie had decided to set up operations in New York: not exactly pretty,
but almost sure to be entertaining.

Baaaaaa!
