The Football News Thread 2022/23

Didn't really know where else to share this goal...

Gonna go for big, big money in the summer, apparently.

 

[Del Woppio]

I think this thread would've been more appropriate IMHO

(good hit that)

Genuinely the best MLS burn yet

He was awesome for me on Football Manager 2020 when I signed him for Wolves.

I looked recently to see where he was playing and, to put it politely, let’s just say I was surprised he’d gone to (the) MLS.

He won't have played a full season's worth of games here! It's absolutely nuts.

As you say, clearly too good for MLS. He was also at the center of everything good Atlanta did against Charlotte the other week (although we were absolutely wretched, it has to be said).

He’s also the first player to win the World Cup playing in the MLS and could be the only player ever to do so imo.

Soccer AM binned. I know he's a cock, but in the Lovejoy days it was genuinely a good tv programme. Went downhill after he and his production team left

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

My favourite period was when Max Rushden was on there. I know that's not a universal view.

Couldn't stand Lovejoy.

 

[Lupo]

I liked it with Lovejoy and Hells Bells, had stopped watching by and large by the time Rushden took over then Goldstein but can't abide either of them on the radio

 

[Lupo]

Couldn't stand Lovejoy.

Just for you...

Dele Alli seems to have gone walkabout

We all have our cross to bear

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I quite liked Soccer AM from the late 90s to the mid-2000s. But I imagine I'd cringe at some of the stuff if I watched it back now.

I once met Tubes in a pub in Kensington. He was a fucking balloon headed prick.

 

[Keef]

It’s of it’s time, that time being britpop, loaded and FHM

 

[Lupo]

They wouldn't get away with the Soccorette and Monkey Tennis these days!

 

[Keef]

Can’t do inner city sumo with Chas and Dave, coz Chas died about 5 years ago, and youth hosteling with Chris Eubanks may be tricky, not many youth hostels left.

 

[lemonjelly]

Dele Alli seems to have gone walkabout

He's suggesting he wasn't due back til tomorrow, & that he has a drs appt today.

I wondered how long this would slip under the radar:

Not a good look for football with the pressures on corporate social responsibility.

Wouldn’t normally be bothered but if we’re bolloxing people into environmental submission it has to be across the board and not just the poorest.

The activists are going to be all over that.
