Soccer stars chatter in 'Bingo Lingo'

Bingo lingo is famous for confusing people – and if you're not a bingo regular, phrases such as two old ladies can leave you wondering what an earth people are talking about. However, a couple of well known soccer stars in the English Premier League are set to start their own bamboozling of defences, with what's being dubbed their own 'bingo lingo'! Wigan Athletic recently gave Egyptian forward Mido a number 4 (knock at the door), linking him up with their other bingo hot number - Amr Zaki.

According to insiders, when the two link-up on the pitch, they natter away in their native Arabic language, leaving the opposition defenders as bemused as a novice gamer listening to a high speed bingo caller. Traditionally, the town of Wigan has been a hot bed for bingo parlours – so if the two can make their bingo lingo hit the right numbers on the pitch, it should be a real crowd pleaser and have people scrambling for tickets. What's for sure is the two can definitely be said to be a Premiership 46 – Up to Tricks. We say be on the look out for spin off bingo games featuring wacky football themes.
