Jesus. Thanks to @theferret for a considered reply. I was talking about lads who have their own businesses, others who have sold successful companies, not a group looking to get pissed/take coke. The club have disenfranchised a large group who have put more money than most in recently. As...

Reading this thread and I’m disappointed with the animosity shown towards our own fans. I know a few groups who have boxes and they’re just mates who’ve clubbed together. They all acknowledge that it was too cheap and were expecting the price to rise by 4-500 a person which would have been...

I’m not long signed off after recovering from ACL reconstruction. My physio said Memphis Depay had the quickest return he’d known. I just looked up the time: INJURY On 15 December 2019 Memphis tore his anterior cruciate ligament while playing against Rennes in Ligue 1. COMEBACK Memphis Depay...

We could still have a different version if it’s part of a Hummel celebration.

I got the new Denmark shirt at the weekend - so nice. You’re right - Hummel will be rolling this out for numerous clubs.

There’s already a long thread about season tickets only a couple of links below this one.

I went to the match last night. City fans very quiet - fans of English clubs often way quieter than usual due to heavy drinking in the sun plus a 10pm ko local. Went with a Man City-supporting mate who said the fans were brilliant at the cup final. We were housemates at uni in the early 90s and...

Surely he could get 2-3 x 20k per week in the Premier League? He is so good and would obviously love to keep him but I can't see it at this stage of his career. There's a EURO next summer and if he's in the PL he'll be far more likely to be on Koeman's radar.

Think someone mentioned this on a thread before but we definitely have a better striker than Man United - Weghorst not as good as Vik despite that wonderful WC goal.

And the guy from Bedworth who always asks Clive a) if you can pay on the gate; and b) how much tickets are. Personally, waiting for the fixtures to come out so I can plan a summer holiday in Cov although did this last year for the first three matches and ended up seeing none as had tickets for...

I agree with you. We were definitely at a double disadvantage on Saturday unfortunately.

I was going to write about the ABBA system in my post above but couldn't really find why FIFA ended the trial although there was a Times article about it. I was surprised to see Luton get the double advantage on Saturday but reading back it happened to Spain when they had the EURO semi-final...

From this University of Berekeley paper: There is a well-known “first shooter advantage”: other aspects being equal, the team to shoot first has a probability of between 60% and 70% of winning. A piece in The Athletic said the rule to have two tosses was introduced at the 2016 IFAB Annual...

They could have three more games if they win this. They must be emotionally drained too.

What a lovely thread. Was a massive fan of Brian Borrows - so elegant, rarely made a mistake and was the consummate professional when handing out trophies at our end-of-season award ceremony when I was about 14. Ndlovu, Huckerby and Keane for getting you off your seat, though.

Not sure if most people have had their fill of football after the weekend but Brooke Norton-Cuffy (starting) and Callum Doyle (on the bench) are in the England squad for tonight's FIFA U20 World Cup R16 game v Italy in Argentina. The match is live on FIFA+, kicking off at 10pm UK time...

Saw a few fans wearing the blue Talbot kit on Saturday, and a friend with us had the Glazepta one - both looked great. Just bought the red Talbot one on eBay (replica for 30 quid) as no blue ones left. Also think the club could cash in on the bucket hats as the replicas did really well. Make it...

Burnley are likely one of the clubs interested in Vik so both McNally and Twine could be used as bait as part of that deal should it come to fruition.

I was watching Bidwell at the end and he could hardly walk. A bit like Barry Bannan yesterday, who was subbed with two mins of ET to go despite being a top penalty taker.

Friend of mine was in 531 and he said two blokes were going for it at the end of extra time which spoiled the moment. We were in 233 and it was great - was disappointed to hear some were being dickheads in the stadium because I thought the behaviour was exemplary. Both Boro and Luton said how...
