It always surprises me when this sort of shit happens in the 21st century.

Re: How do you watch football?

Everton and Hungary, the odd gander at how England or Scotland are doing, that's about it.

I know it's anathema to admit this on a football forum but I just got bored with football.

Re: Financial Fairplay Investigation

In my mind, a 3 point deduction would have been satisfactory in that we are guilty, and they wanted to make a point. However, what they have done in this judgement is set an extremely harsh and very challenging precedent for themselves. 10 points is now the threshold. If you have been found guilty ...

Re: Today's Football 2023-24

Bulgaria-Hungary was a tough encounter between two teams desperate to shoot themselves in the foot. At 1-1, Bulgaria appeared to strike first by getting 2 red cards in 2 minutes, but the second one was overturned on VAR and instead the Hungarian player was booked for dangling a leg for contact. Embo...

Re: Dyche

I'd take Dyche achieving Simeone's level of success in a heartbeat. Simeone's Atletico side may not be overly glamourous, but they're bloody good. I'd probably take 10% of Simeone's success tbh. That would be an incredible achievement. I wasn't saying I wouldn't take it. I was saying that's a more ...

Re: Dyche

I mean, Dyche isn't a great manager and therefore it probably doesn't really matter when he took us over. That's not to say he's not a good manager but don't expect the football or the results to be all that different even with much better players. Think one of his main strengths is getting the mos...

Re: Dyche

There's another thing that I noticed is no longer mentioned, despite people regularly complaining about it for years: that we are soft, we are pushovers. We seem to have stopped allowing ourselves to be bullied. Granted, that's not exactly a footballing achievement but I 100% believe it comes from t...

Re: Dyche

I think what he's done that none of the other managers could consistently do is getting the best out of his players. Mykolenko, Tarkowski, Doucoure, DCL, McNeil, they're all playing as well as they have ever done. Yes, it is often scrappy, yes, the system falls apart occasionally, losing us control ...

Re: VAR and is there a way to fix it?

VAR should work like goal-line technology: automatically and instantly establish if something happened/didn't happen, then leave the decision to the referee. We could have technology that tells us if the ball was out or not, we could probably even create one that will determine which players were i...

Re: Today's Football 2023-24

Two of the best teams in the country playing eachother and only three shots on target all game. I find modern football so boring these days. All about beating the press, pressing from the front and little on doing anything to score goals. That's why I really love watching quality women's football. ...
