    FIFA Club World Cup 2025 | Day 7, 8 & 9 | 20/21/22 June '25

    According to the BBC - Inter are at 87% possession. They do really need to win here or they'll go into the final game with River Plate probably needing a win (and maybe also having to hope other results go their way).

    Gotta say, people can criticise this tournament for a whole manner of reasons, but it has been a way of showcasing how brilliant football's fans are from around the world - it's been great seeing how people from different cultures support their teams. Try telling those Urawa fans behind the...

    lol, referee let the player walk all the way across the pitch to take the corner. Lines it up and then he blows for half-time. Top referee shit-housing.

    Easy to underestimate the African teams but let’s not forget that their Champions League requires them to travel immense distances and play in extreme weather. This situation probably feels like a walk in the park for Mamelodi. I do think the conditions are having a major impact on this game.

    City fined by PL for kick-off time rule breaches

    I find it a bit bizarre that the club dragged their feet for so long over ticket pricing, yet they're so apathetic about something so frivolous that they're willing to take a hit for the second season running, and to the tune of £1m. It's enough to take a quid off every ticket for every home...

    FIFA Club World Cup 2025 | Day 5 & 6 | 18/19 June '25

    Think that might be Porto basically out. Ties go on head-to-head so they need to hope that they beat Al Ahly, Miami beat Palmeiras and there’s a 3 goal swing in their favour. If Miami fail to beat Palmeiras it’s going to be effectively a by for PSG in the last 16. They’ll get run absolutely ragged.

    Middle East Conflict

    It’s pretty standard OpSec practice to not allow the filming/publishing of missile hits because it allows the enemy to better triangulate strikes for their next attack. Ukraine have exactly the same guidance which is covered under their Martial Law...

    Wydad AC (N) | CWC | Post Match Thread

    He goes into the tackle fine, the only reason his legs lift at the end of the tackle is because they literally deflect off the other guy’s legs like a ramp. Basically got sent off for getting bounced by a bigger player. A bit silly really.

    United States Flag Flying and Chants of, "USA!, USA!"

    I think all forms of patriotism are to be approached with immense skepticism. You say that this is a change in perception you’ve had since Trump came to power, but I think you’ll find that a lot of people over here would have perceived the patriotic rhetoric in the USA to be a bit weird way...

    Captain for next season | Bernardo confirmed (pg11)

    I have to say, I don’t mind it. Sometimes being a captain off the pitch is as important as being a captain on it, and I think Bernie is one of the few players that really “gets” the fans. You can tell he fucking hates the Scousers as much as I do, and that’s good enough for me. He’s a model pro...

    Student Debt

    No disagreements from me - I think the way student loans are "marketed" these days is stuck in the 90s, it hasn't evolved since they were introduced. Back then it wasn't a life-altering sum of money and most could pay it off after an amount of time working a modest job. Now it is a stealth tax...

    Student Debt

    It’s one of those horses for courses situations, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer on what is the best approach to take in life. And these days you have to really think hard about the long-term pros/cons. With the tuition fees and interest rates as they are today you have to think of it as a...

    Clubs playing in the wrong league ? Or other competition

    Trust the egghead to correct me on that one. Yes sir, you are technically correct (the best kind of correct).

    Clubs playing in the wrong league ? Or other competition

    Was thinking about this the other day. Monaco - a country, also a football club - play in the French league despite being a country and not being in France. Gibraltar - not a country, part of the UK - play in UEFA international competitions despite not being a country.

    Keeper's 100% correct there, the Porto player was offside and stood right in his eye line.
