    Several clubs have drums in England now. I’m sure I’ve seen two-poles too. And no banners allowed? Why?
  2. El Zen
    Is this true? If it is, it’s a complete embarrasment.

    Everything is wrong with video refereeing in football. It would be shite even if it worked perfectly, and it doesn’t even work at all. What it takes away in terms of spontaneity is enough to bin it for me, but the pragmatic argument is that it can’t possibly work the way its proponents idealise, because football refereeing will always be subject to human error and subjective interpretation. Always. VAR makes football worse. Far worse. I want it sent straight to room 101 where it belongs.

    Scrap VAR.

    Scrap it, scrap it, scrap it.

    STFU and take my money. I love it.

    I hate to come across as a fairweather fan, but I just can’t find the will to watch the Yankees this season. Such an unexciting team to watch, such a poorly constructed line up. No World Series since 2009, Brian (Cashman, GM,) it’s time to go (and it has been for a long time.)

    As legendary Norway manager Egil Olsen would always say, I reckon we have a fair chance.

    Too easy this Europe lark, innit?

    That I have not. Sounds like it would make for a rather unpleasant beer shower.

    Literally three of my favourite things in the whole world, that.

    I can teach history so the surviving population remembers life before the apocalypse. I can make simple wooden constructions, like a flower beed or a pretty dope treehouse. I can make relatively poor attempts at humour, poetry and literature. I can make babies.

    AIK won the Swedish league in 1998 scoring 25 in 26 games.

    The Bear is magnificent. S2E6 Fishes is just about the most intense drama I’ve seen on a TV screen. Shakespearian qualities.

    Soooo f***ing easy!

    Ørjan Nyland has, for some reason, signed for Sevilla.

    I Don’t Know What To Call Her. I coined it for my ex wife in that awkward period after we’d broken up but still had to share a roof.
  18. El Zen
    Fixed it for you.

    They all look pretty f***ing happy to me.

    I actually confronted two separate Saudi fans in the pub yesterday and asked them if they had any idea what they’re backing. Both just said they «can’t be arsed to discuss that». Sportswashing works.

    Word for word, this. The people governing the sport don’t know the first thing about the sport they’re governing.

    IDGAF. At least I don’t support a murderous regime.

    I’ll bet my mortgage it’s better entertainment than the current game. Absolute snoozefest.

    Hajduk Split. Mosaic.

    It’s been covered elsewhere many times, but I’ll do a quick recap: Vålerenga Oslo. Active club member, active ultra. Season ticket and as much away travel as I can financially and logistically swing. Then I have a couple of teams I follow closely, but not religiously, like Celtic and St. Pauli, and more recently and to a smaller extent, Athletic Club. I tend to have soft spots for teams that are part of the left wing/antifa fanfreundschaft circle across Europe. Finally, though I don’t actively follow them, watching Boca Juniors live at La Bombonera is my ultimate bucket list item. I don’t really have a ‘second team’ in England or Norway.
