one work venue team was gifted tnt sports via a perks deal, saw it was on prime and then caught the last ten minutes on a tablet
Utd planning a new stadium, are you a Utd or Liverpool fan Rich? Seems a bit bold of Utd with so much debt saddled to the club. Can Manchester support two vast stadiums without one failing? Cant see Utd getting back on track any time soon. Eg how many sports teams have dominated their art/field for more than 10-15 years? All Blacks in rugby, Real, Barca, Liverpool, Utd, Bayern, AC Milan, more in other team and individual disciplines like cycling
£2 billion could buy a lot of quality players, not that I follow whatever Utd’s development programs or class of 92 comparisons to today are. Same with Liverpool’s managerial boot room
Forest are flying and don’t take the piss re ticketing so you can still go as a group with mixed incomes and watch quality games compared to admission prices elsewhere in the league. Helps your local not a real priority team in third, city is buzzing. Even Mull of Kintyre, a track which stained my formative years, has been assimilated with masses of heart, ironic for Britain’s most inland city

it can border on gnosis
stay Green @kid charlemagne , with Irish roots you could start with Celtic or Hibs in Edinburgh (still the ultimate away day), accept a lower quality of football in a terrible league and avoid being corrupted as a club by people who sit in the stands completely detached from a club’s long term future
have a gander at pan-European competitions and international games/tournaments, @ver$hy ver$h posted a clip of either Spain, Real Madrid of Barcelona one touch passes pinging like a spell but can’t find via search, add club rivalries over decades, class, eras/periods, foreign players in domestic leagues and vice versa, quality goals but part of football’s soul has been permanently damaged by Fifa and greed

I'm Utd for my sins. Just old enough to remember when they were shit before they got good and unlike more recent fans I know it's not the natural state of the world for Utd to be on top of the pyramid. There is no sign of them getting back to even being in contention at the moment, the money they've spent on players to end up with such a mediocre squad is obscene, and if they don't start running the club better then they'll probably fuck up the stadium too.
I'm glad Fernandes is playing well again lately, I think that Zirkzee has potential maybe, Dorcu perhaps... but I ssw Wan-Bissaka playing the other day and they've gone through about fifty full-backs since they had him and binned him off but I don't think any of them are an obvious improvement. I mean Dalot is ok I guess.
Hjolland and Garnacho have talent but they lack the killer instinct to really score goals. Erikson has lost it. You'd expect Casemiro to bring more ability to the side... look at Asensio at Villa.
The rest are pretty much bang average though I guess there will be some great headlines if Ayden Heaven scores at some point.
The most galling thing is how fucking well Mason Greenwood is doing.
