    Football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    I mean, Warwick Uni is actually in Coventry (although one can see why they'd maybe chose to not advertise this fact), so it does seem a trifle silly to say Warwickshire has no FL teams.

    Women's football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Seems an awfully long time after the alleged incident for this to come up now. I've no idea what she's purported to have said, but I will say "foreign football player abusing copper" is the kind of headline the tabs would usually be all over, and I don't recall anything mentioned in the media...

    Football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    I think it depends how one defines counties; I mean, I know Dagenham has been part of Greater London since the mid 60s, but in their hearts (and by postcode) I think a lot of its inhabitants think of themselves as being Essex boys and girls; which means Dagenham and Redbridge were arguably a...

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    Their old men didn't play for Tranmere by any chance...? :ph34r: Seriously though, with a disclaimer like "I don't wanna sound disrespectful to their dads..." it was always going to be good. As impressive as playing a quarter of a game for yer Scousers as foetuses undoubtedly is, Danns &...

    Quite right too. It's the colour of tories and, worse yet, Chelsea. Although one imagines the Venn diagrams of "tories" and "Chav supporters" have a high percentage of overlap.

    *Official*Ireland tour to Afghanistan Feb-Mar 2024

    Yeah, fair play to the Micks. Got there a lot quicker than NZ, anyway! :ph34r:

    Offical Rugby League Thread

    Yeah, there's a healthy smattering of Australasian talent in every SL club. Each team has a quota of 5 overseas players, but those holding an EU or Kolpak-aligned passport (which includes Fiji, Tonga and Samoa) don't count towards it. So obviously in reality a lot of teams have vastly more...

    Genge doing something daft; what are the odds? Way too much reffing of the outcome in union; even if he took out his teammate the intent was there. No attempt to bind at all.

    Ha, well in that case I've mentored the missus into three babies now.

    I dunno. I mean yeah, two wins are two wins, but we've beaten (by consensus) the two poorest teams in the comp by a total of 5 points. Guess we'll find out more when we play someone decent.

    Peter Roebuck dies

    12 years after a death seems an awfully long time for an inquest to take place, I suppose a slightly complicating factor was his overseas death but even so, however the Cheshire coroner has (finally) concluded Peter Roebuck took his own life. I think the apposite phrase is "Well, durr...."

    An eight goal turnaround from the reversed fixture can't have happened too often in the Prem era either.

    Draft Game - Fantasy Cricket 2024

    Yeah, assuming they'd even want it, yer Neps would be my shout for next country to gain test status. Obviously the ICC has designs on America, but Nepal already has a cricketing culture and (so Wiki informs me) the sport vies with football for the most popular in the country. Obviously close...

    Admittedly haven't watched any of their games, but Qatar's ongoing success baffles me. They're defending champions and at worst finalists this time around, but they looked utterly, utterly ploppy pants in the WC.

    Has Gambhiring infected fantasy drafts too now? :-O For shame.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    Yeah, reckon there's at least three teams worse than the Bees. Yer Wolfs looks a big game though in light of what comes next. Seems like about the fiftieth time you've played them just lately too.
