My picture!

For calling the spots event at our Black Member Parties the "Black Member Soccer Battle", we recieved a lot of criticism. People tell us that no one except Americans uses soccer, the rest uses "Football", "Fussball", "Futbol", "Foetball" etc.pp.

Well, okay, this time I'll call it football then. Happy? But still I think as a 'brand name', soccer was the better decision, as everyone knows what is meant and it sounds a little shorter / more sloganized. Next time it will be a different type of event, so the language conflict will rest for a few months.

 

Company Football

Once a week, a large chunk of our staff leaves the office 'early' [i.e. not deep in the night, working for you ;)] to go play some soccer. Currently, the playing field is in Spain - but maybe we will some day try the Gibraltar national stadium.

Walking over. Manu, still sending some SMS?!


Even though in Spain, there's a great view on the Rock.

Thanks god he warmed up. And shame on the cynical laughter!


A proud team picture.


Why smile? Someone will be hit!
