My local pub is full of football fans and various screens showing different games. Virtually all my friends love it and watch too - it's pretty nigh on impossible to ignore completely. That's not being particularly interested, it's just seeing what is around you. I only see snatches of the games anyway, most are completely boring *in my opinion*. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like NFL or Baseball but I don't go on those threads just to tell people that, I just ignore them. Football seems the only game / thread that people feel the need to tell others they don't like it. Envy , jealousy perhaps, a deep loathing, presumably The Masked Poster now we know how he or she feels won't be back. On to football matters, so Steven Gerrard sacked, so it transpires beating the likes of Kilmarnock, St Mirren and the like isn't necessarily what it takes to manage a Premier league club.

I'm willing to bet I was watching football before you bud, I aren't coming on to say how much I hate it, I used to love it. But seeing games (with so much at stake) decided by ludicrous decisions that seem to rule out the physical element, for me, is a turn off. I'd actually go further and say it deserves ridicule but that's not my reason for posting. I'll leave you to enjoy it in peace now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef K Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I watched the Torquay/Altrincham game (i always say Altringham) and what a match. Torquay are bottom whilst the robins were just above the drop zone. Altrincham went 0-2 up after 29mins, but then Torquay hit back to pull level, then on 81mins Torquay went 3-2 up. The robins pulled level on 85mins, but then Torquay had a player sent off on 88mins. Altrincham then took the lead again in the 90th minute, but in the 97th minute Torquay grabbed a point with the last kick of the game. It was a grandstand finish.

Gerrumonside ref Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Just caught the last 25 mins of Liverpool Women vs Arsenal Women. Record crowd for Liverpool Women at Tranmere for it. Arsenal won 2-0 which was to be expected really. Continues to improve as a product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Route66 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 In the weird world of the Npl west division where teams cant put a run together and separated accross the league by only a few points, top of the table Macclesfield (3 points ahead) decide to sack club stalwart Danny Whittaker ,poor form from robbie savage and his partners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef K Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Did anyone see the highlights of the Charlton/Ipswich game ?. What a match i can’t blame some of the Charlton fans leaving the ground in injury time i would’ve done that myself. I wonder how many Ipswich fans left thinking the game was won. Football can be an amazing sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayCee Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I see LFC have drawn RM in the CL. LFC doesn't have a good record against them. The good part is if they are going to meet RM sometime and lose, better to do it sooner rather than later. LFC will be struggling to make top 4 in the PL and they can then put their focus on that endeavour at what will be for the club a critical part of the domestic season. My blog: https://rugbyl.blogspot.co.nz/ It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course. It takes reasonableness to end that discussion.

Moose Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Ebbsfleet v Fleetwood in FA Cup being shown on ITV. One of Ebbsfleet’s sponsors 247 Blinds is the main Hunslet RLFC sponsor. About every 5 mins the perimeter advertising shows 247 Blinds and then Hunslet RLFC, so we shall again, all in Hunslet’s colours. It’s a bit left field advertising wise but it’s great to see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
