    Franz Ferdinand in the news

    Home Team Football Club 0 Manchester United 14. A fun future prediction of what Manchester United could do to Billy Bulldog and Home Team FC in the 2007/2008 Premier League season. Ferdinand sits boredly on the center circle, Solskjaer nabs 4 in 9 minutes, the reds keep possession for 5 full minutes and 172 passes amassing 84% of possession stats.

    A “new wave” of “new wave” in the English speaking world seems to have pretty much run its course–Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, Rapture, Erase Errata, etc–who cares? None of them make as much ridiculous noise as the Polysics...
