  1. Highly doubt this gets moved. Nobody and I mean nobody wants to watch this. That includes us and Soton fans
  2. Oldham away in league 1 1-1 our goal scorer none other than SSH
  3. Works on contingency? No, money down!
  4. No relegation renders American sport as forever inferior. Think how many pointless games they must have over the baseball season ffs
  5. What does Henderson add behind the scenes though? Single digit IQ
  6. Worst thing about that result is that in recent years skybet often did money back on first race up to £10 and you'd lob it on some long odds 'no hoper'. Would have been plenty winning a grand off that
  7. If you look at the stats in shootouts when missing = you lose and scoring = you win, they're mad. The pressure gets to you both ways. Can't remember where I saw it but it's something like 43% success rate vs 90%. And that's across all shootouts. Looked online, it's actually more like 60% vs 90% in major tournaments, but still.
  8. One thing that Atleti had on their side was the card attached to the foul on Mbappe for the penalty. No intent to play the ball, Mbappe through aka goal scoring opportunity. Would have been harsh but in reality was probably a red.
  9. Au contraire mate, see Randers. Personally I think the issue is people aren't drunk enough. Yes you've got handfuls who are off their face but so many stone cold miserable bastards about. When the football is as shit as it currently is, have a few beers or 10
  10. Unfortunately we know that this isn't true. So many of our die hard fans (in terms of attendance through thick and thin) offer absolutely 0 in terms of support other than clapping players off. As @Stadt mentioned, we need attendance to fall so it's easier for like minded supporters to gather in one place (see Scotland).
  11. Just back from Sarajevo, did two games. Slavija Sarajevo 6-1 Borac Kozarska Dubica in the Republica Srpska first league. Attendance probably 300ish, dead atmosphere other than us 3 drunk Englishmen trying to get some chants going. Zeljeznicar 1-1 Borac Banja Luka. Bosnian Prem. Lovely old ground, 10k there and atmosphere was going off, flares and smoke bombs aots. Never seen a home support more fervently angry with the ref at all times. Great stuff. For some reason there were only about 10 away fans, considering it's deemed somewhat a rivalry and both near top of the table. Maybe ultras boycott or weird KO time limiting away fans.
  12. Definitely this. English football has pretty much gone to the dogs atmosphere wise. I'm always banging this drum but Anfield last night was absolute gash. They turned the speakers to 11 for YNWA pre game then it was 90 mins of PSG ultras going for it. Can still have the odd good moment, Preston last year was incredible but these are becoming increasingly few and far between.
  13. Alisson made a few great saves in the second half so can't have been that crap. When a team is parking the bus you naturally shoot from distance more. If the keepers were swapped last night, would have finished 4-0 PSG easy
  14. Please find me stats from a game when Real have been battered like that and won. 27 shots to 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Basically PSG are just the anti-RM. Constantly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
  15. Maxwell bailed out by no nonsense trim Zamps GAME ON
  16. Right on cue, players come off for rain in Aus-Afg
  17. Am I missing something here? 2 games binned without a ball being balled, both in Rawalpindi. Not the rainy season there? Edit: Guess if you exclude the monsoon months, Feb/Mar is quite wet
  18. Liv was always going to be moved but got to feel for Newcastle fans. How many times have we played them at home on MNF in recent times? Also Sky, nobody wants to watch Leicester ffs. They've left Ipswich-Wolves off TV, could be an entertaining 6 pointer.
  19. Mad that it's a 'local derby', 90 min, 80+ miles between grounds. Be like our closest rival being Oxford United.
  20. The worst thing about the dreadful atmosphere is that it's a vicious cycle. Fans who actually make some noise at games are becoming disillusioned and turning their backs on going as it's no longer enjoyable. I am very much part of this group. What remains are the BMA and NPCs who think they're 'proper fans' because they go to every game and sit in silence, then clap them off after we've lost 7-0. Honestly don't see a way out of this. Feel bad for the younger generation who are getting into football. Add to this the move to fully digital tickets, Spurs using facial recognition for entry (?!?!?!?!?!?!?). The game is so far gone.
  21. Yep Villa, Notts F and Newcastle thinking they're great. Villa running a printed tifo that effectively amounted to an advert for ozzy osbourne a new low. But all their vapid fans lapped it up of course.
  22. Not the case with Blues. Yes they have a handful to the right of the away end giving it large as you look as a visiting fan but their most vocal section is the Tilton Rd end opposite. Same for Villa with north stand lower giving it large but Holte end the most vocal
  23. That's why he's the highest paid in the world
  24. Sold absolutely jack shit for this and we're already at 570+. This will go down to members and we'll be sending tickets back
  25. Because it waters down the "value" of their godforsaken memberships. They're constantly cutting off their nose to spite their face.
