From The Official MUFC Maths Workbook

Liffeyman

1. Wayne is 78 yards away from the referee at Old Trafford and Gary is
65 yards away. If Wayne can run at 21mph and Gary can run at 16mph, who
will be sticking their vein-bulging forehead into the hapless
whistler's face first, assuming Wayne does not stop to stamp on an
opponent on his way.

2. If one minute of time is taken up in a game for substitutions and
one minute for injuries, how much injury time will be added on by the
referee if Man Utd are losing at home?

3. Ryan is a Welshman. Express, as a percentage, the number of
internationals he has missed on a Wednesday evening compared to the
miraculous recoveries he made for the following Saturday.

4. Manchester United are one of the giants of world club football. How
many more European Cup Finals have they appeared in than Steaua
Bucharest? (For one extra mark; How many more than Reims?)

4a. How many more times have Manchester United won the European Cup
than Nottingham Forest?

5. Phil Neville has 30 international caps. If you take away the number
of appearances when he was the only adult male in England who could
just
about
kick the ball with his left foot, how many are left?

6. You are the referee at Old Trafford. How near to a visiting defender
does a tumbling Ruud van Nistelrooy have to be to earn a penalty if he
goes
down in the box? (Note: Round your answers down to the nearest 20
yards.)

6a. Probability. Express the statistical probability of visitors to Old
Trafford being awarded a penalty. Compare this with the probability of
opponents of Manchester United being awarded a penalty home or away,
and then discuss if a penalty awarded to Manchester United would be
awarded to their opponents in identical circumstances.

7. Mark "The Red" lives in Guildford. How much does it cost for him and
his two sons to travel to the Theatre of Silence every other weekend,
including limited edition matchday programme, a few drinks and prawn

sandwiches all round? How much could he save per week if he watched his
local team instead?

(Note: Round your answers down to the nearest thousand pounds).

8. Alex had a hotel room booked in Paris for the Champions League
Final. How much money did he lose when cancelling his reservation?

9. Ruud is 6ft tall and very strong and fast. How much pressure need be
applied to make him tumble over in the opponents penalty area? (Note:
Answers must be in lbs per square inch. However, answers such as,
'However much pressure is applied by Ferguson to referees' are
accepted.)

10. Alex has won it 1 time, Bob has won it 4. Alex has one, Bob does
not. What am talking about? Explain your answer (because nobody else
can).

11. Rio is a very lazy boy and often goes missing. Alex is very cross
and wants to sells him. If Rio cost £29m to buy, how much do you think
Alex sold him for? How many pennies did Alex lose? For an extra mark
convert
your
answer to dollars for explaining to Malcolm "the leprechaun" Glazer.

12. What is the total number of chickens counted before they were
hatched by Manchester United and their supporters who thought Benfica
were a
pushover

Should probably be posted on some Liverpool or ABU forum somewhere but anyway.

Number 10 is a travesty though.

Zapp Brannigan

Dunno what number 10 is?
Well the last bit
