General Ricardinho’s Kit Sponsors

West Oxon U’s

The Transfer Encyclopedia
When snoozing this morning I kind of heard a piece on Radio Five Live about the new
BBC crime drama McMafia which is being aired tonight.They were interviewing
the writer and was sure I heard OUFC mentioned.

I’ve just looked at today’s match programme and Ricardinho is sponsored by McMafia the Book
and McMafia the TV show!
 
Random! But as said already, it explains the ‘hit’ on their player and the three match ban...
 
In the book, which is a good and interesting read, the writer meets a money launderer in Oxford city centre at one point, I did find that strange until I found out that Glenny lived local. On the other hand if Oxford is a centre for international money laundering can’t we have some to sign a few players, be like the captain Bob years again as we soar up the leagues with shady backing.
 
Watched the first two episodes of McMafia and it's very good. The first episode took a bit of watching, due to the amount of sub-titles and outlining of plot/characters etc, but the second episode really livened up as the plot unfurls.

I'd urge anyone who hasn't seen it to watch the first two episodes on iPlayer and then watch it "live" from Sunday night.
 
Has the pint sized elderly Brazilian hitman featured yet? ??

There have been one or two murders, but no sign of Ricco yet.

Co-incidentally, one of Glenny's later books is about a crime lord in the flavellas of Rio, so we might see him putting in a cameo appearance in that one!

Agreed, enjoyed the first two episodes (not one to watch and browse the forum at the same time though).

I think I read in the paper that the lead Actor is to follow Daniel Craig as James Bond.
