What an absolute shite article, he got asked directly the question of if they where at a similar quality, he's hardly gonna come out and say "Yeaah that Darlow lad is proper shite, he doens't deserve to sit on the same shitter as big Dubs" Secondly, he doesnt even compare the two, he just says they're both "Very Good": "I can only judge both goalkeepers from my time here, seeing them on a daily basis. "Both keepers are very good. "The football club is lucky to have two good goalkeepers of the quality of Karl Darlow and Martin Dubravka. "So I think both are very good and possess different attributes."

10 years this weekend, this is a really good tribute from the BBC, very somber reading, but a lovely article: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/extra/k5nr8ca4o3/Gary-Speed-death-day-that-shook-football

Bought that retro shirt, and its lush like, better then the actual home shirt, the quality is high. Wish the stripes where slightly thinner but thats a personal thing, everything else is great. Bar the actual home kit, which isn't awful, and certainly not as bad as some of the dross served up by Puma, I really like Castore, the away and third kits are lush, and they have a load of different training, retro and other sorts of bespoke gear that pales in comparison to the cookie cutter stuff Puma farmed out. Just wish the price was about 25% cheaper

Spot on with everything he says here tbh.

December is going to be really weird, with the lead up to January and the transfer window we are going to be link with so many players, its going to be a far cry from the silence we've been used to for 14 years

Its also part of the Norfolk county flag iirc.

I feel weirdly confident about this game, so we'll get spanked 4-0

From an MLS Playoff game, Seatle Sounders got proper FM'd

Get to fuck.

Looks like it could be Valverde on an interim basis for Man United.

Replies to this are amusing

I'm don't normally give a shit about concept kits, but I would pay alot of money for this kit:

24hr charity football match going on for Movember:

If he's test positive it means he's contagious, and whether he's asymptomatic or not its 100% the correct thing to self-isolate, its not about him becoming ill, its about if he transmits it to someone else, and while most of the footballers may be alright, what if he was to have some form of interaction with a member of staff at his hotel, or the taxi driver to and from the training ground, and one of them people are at risk of severe disease from contracting it? Its just not right to let him roam free with a disease thats killed 5 million people.

I'm 26 not 14, I know of Shay Given It may be because I mainly remember his final years with us, but I feel Dubs is at least equal with him on shot stopping, has better command of his area, and is better on the ball then Given, but like I said, I only really remember Givens final season or two.

Might be one for the Dubravka thread, but personally think he's the best keeper weve had in my lifetime.

Thank fuck for that from Spurs. Conte is such a loon

Conte tries to gee up the fans. *One minor "Come on your Spurs" chant. Silence.
