Whilst some of you are worrying about transfer budgets or need to spend big a bit of food for thought…

 

 

 

That’s extraordinary. 

I’m super excited about this. 
 

It’s an interesting challenge - there’s an element of the unknown with the amount of new players they’ve bought and it being their first game back at this level. You’d be disappointed if we didn’t win against a newly promoted side at home though.

So was Craig Bellamy.....

Was different for me - I didn’t really know much about him before he joined so was neutral on him to begin with. See your point though. 

I get why people want him but personally I can’t stand him, he’s an arsehole of a player, would find him difficult to root for.

Also - more money. Probably the deciding factor. Mid to high 100's I assume.

 

There's no short-term footballing reason to join us from Leicester.

Not sure I agree with that. They had a mediocre season by their standards and haven’t improved the squad. We have quite obvious momentum and upward trajectory and look a good bet to be at least a consistently decent team and push for European football on the regular in the not distant future. No idea if this stuff factors in but I’d certainly rather be hero worshipped at SJP instead of fanned by inflatable clappers at the walkers bowl

Almiron has scored the same number of goals Cornet has in the PL. It's just taken him 4 seasons to Cornet's 1.

 

I'll never understand how much grace this lad gets from the fans on here. He's done little to deserve it.

Oh do you not like Almiron?

How would I know what your favourite subjects were?

 

Impressive line up though.

 

 

Thank you. I was brought up by a good woman.

Just now, Numbers said:

Nah I was canny good at Maths and stuff, what were your favourite subjects?

Spanish, German, History, English Lit, Music. Anything else?

Just now, Numbers said:

Nah you're just getting offended for the sake of being offended.

Ah, ok. Thanks for explaining.

Why the fuck would you want people banned, were you a prefect at school?

Were you a moron at school?

Because he’s sexist?

Cool - enjoy being on the side of sexism

Celebrating with their tits Is what did it for me If that's gives you an even lower opinion ?

@Yorkieplease bring the ban hammer on this most outstanding of idiots.

I've already said I enjoyed the game, keep up.

Yesterday you complained that women’s football took up time on tv instead of lower league matches you wanted to watch. For you to celebrate less than 24 hours later is fraudulence on a Steve Bruce level. Shame on you.

You’re a shameless charlatan.

Just one really fucking purely nice thing to happen at such a godawful time for this country. Everyone who has actually followed this for more than a few weeks must be over the moon, because I’ve been watching only this tournament and I’m ecstatic. This is what the country can be when we try - progressive, determined, joyful, talented and silly. They’re sporting heroes for their lives and they deserve all the happiness it brings.

@WillingtonMagmust hate having this shit shoved down his throat

Me part of the Saturday football routine especially big events like first game of the season which is ruined this year as they are trying to force women's football onto us. Started last season too they'd have upcoming news on arsenal or spurs etc so your expecting somthing on the mens game and it was news on the woman's teams that no ones bothered about.

I really can’t emphasise how grim I find your opinions sometimes. Whoever “they” are, nobody is forcing anything on to you - you can literally just not watch it by choosing to do literally anything else when it’s on. Before the match today I had conversations with every person I was with about the final, and every person I spoke to (10-15 people, I’d guess) all said they are watching the final and all were looking forward to it. It’s a positive thing for gender equality, it’s a positive thing for the country at a time when it’s not in a good state and it’s a positive thing for sport. 
 

Worrying

Aye this is what I'm getting at also starting to do it with England caps and goal records etc as if they're comparable. It's already shite on the lower league teams with the massive Premier league bias now they are getting even less of a look in. Don't see why a separate channel would be a bad thing, having a full channel dedicated to women's football for those interested doesn't sound that bad of a suggestion.

Because inclusivity is preferable to segregation? Plenty of lower league teams in the region, you could

just buy a ticket to go and watch them. Alternately, you could take the approach that men’s football has dominated televised sports for literally decades and that trying something new isn’t a bad thing because, you know, progress.

Indeed, a proper chortle fest 

Great post
