Tribal Gatherings

Last updated : 20 October 2002 By Kevin Smith

Tribal is online football’s version of the Sunday Sport and what makes this site even more hilarious is that it is based in the bustling centre of football news - Australia.

It appears that at the start of the day the editorial staff play a game. In one bucket is a list of football clubs and in another is a list of top players from around the world.

To maximise the exposure of the stories the headlines incorporate as many clubs as possible into one long line of jibberish.

Here are just a few of the classics from Tribal over the last few days:

1. Vale won’t stand in Paynter’s way as Liverpool, Man Utd circle

2. Liverpool join Man Utd, Leeds in Sorin interest

3. Liverpool, Celtic among clubs tracking Dumbarton’s Collins

4. Inter try to get jump on Liverpool, Man Utd in Govou race

5. Liverpool, Inter watch as Lovenkrands demands stall Rangers deal

On a positive note, at least Tribal don’t charge for their dodgy rumours!
