Fratton Park is not a pleasant place.

Thats all anyone needs to know.

Less of me now.....

Oxford's new stadium has moved a step closer, with the local planners approving the plans.

It now goes in front of the District Council Planning Meeting on August 14th for final approval.

Pepe the Horseman Jess Carter having a shitter.

She is so slow it's scary; the Swedes had obviously seen here in the Group games and thought "weak link; exploit her total lack of pace" and then did so with relish.

Total co-incidence that within minutes of her being subbed, England score twice.

I believe UEFA only consider UN members (as that matches FIFA's membership criteria), unless required to consider another territory by CAS order (see Gibraltar), think UEFA should consider associate membership for self-governing territories and allow them to play in the Nations League. This would a...

The difference in quality between the top teams in women's football and the middling teams is really vast; there hasn't been a single shock result in the Group games.

BRO_BOT The quality of defending in women's football is woeful...goalkeeping is just a joke!

The Wales' goalkeeper made a fantastic save v England last night; similar to the one the PSG keeper made to keep out Delap in the World Club Cup Final at almost exactly the same time....

Shocking news; car crash in Spain, on his way to catch a ferry to get back for pre-season training. (He had a minor op and was advised not to fly apparently). His brother also died.

I caught the last 30 minutes of the Finland v Iceland game; I am not going to compare the quality to the Men's game - that is utterly irrelevant for multiple reasons. However, the game showed that the quality gap between those at top of the Women's game and those who are still good enough to get to ...

Crusader Royal I believe Auckland, who lost 10-0 to Michael Olise’s Bayern Munich at the World Apathy Cup recently are ranked somewhere in the 5,000s.

Yep; for context, York City of the National League are at about 2,500 in that list; Bayern Munich are 6th.......

Apparantly, Gareth Bale is fronting up a US consortium who are looking to acquire Plymouth.

WestYorksRoyal Ultimately if Noel and Brian think he'd be a good signing then I'll go with that. If we could get him close to his peak he would tear up L1. I just suspect they won't go for him.

Forbury Lion Possible spin off thread, but Panini have signed a deal with the EFL so expect to see our players appearing as Panini stickers.

Will Infantino manage to get himself his own golden sticker in that collection as well?

(Classic cross thread/cross forum tie up there! )

half times shows booked for the matches featuring 'superstars' Balvin, Doja Cat and Tems obv, who?! etc. but how long is it until they announce that HT is to be longer than 15 minutes? I read that they were booked for the half time show at the actual Final, rather than at half time for random games...

Whilst not a transfer as such (as it is a player leaving a side rather than joining one) but I thought it was worth a mention. Scott Carson will leave Manchester City this Summer at the end of his contract. He has been at the club for 6 Years, 2 of them initially on loan from Derby, joining permanen...

It would be a yes from me; I think the guy has potential to be a very good L1 player.

In addition, he knows the team (and they know him), and so it is a low risk signing for us (especially if its a free).

This is a non news story regurgitated from last week by a Wales paper....the quote from Savage is a non quote as it says Savage is "believed" to want a move to the champ to get back in the Wales squad. He only made the full squad once.....was a back up player and players pulled out. Prett...

What hasn't been mentioned is that, as well as flying 6,600 miles to Malaysia, 3 of the players (Maguire, Onana and Dalot) then flew to Mumbai for a meet and greet for club sponsor Apollo Tyres, before then flying to Hong Kong to conclude the tour.

Utter madness.

I presume Leicester have reported a £201.6m loss in just 1 year as 3 years * £83m = £249m? And when does the PL season for them run to now? £83m was the total for the 3 years and £201.6m was what they reported for that period Thanks for clarifying, mis-read the op :oops: That is some failure :shock...

Brogue Selles to Huddersfield

I tell you what Saints should take a long hard look and bring Selles back in

They are talking about that English guy from Lens?
