So thinking of taking my Dad away to Madrid for a couple of days for his Birthday. Obviously want to try and see a game, either Real or Atletico. Anybody know how feasible this would be? Around the weekend of April 26th.

Real are at home that weekend but the exact day/time could be anything at all. Be looking at £80+ each unless you are prepared to sit in top tiers mind. Sure theres a website that does decent value trips/ticket packages mind

To the ref people on here; is there any reason why HT/FT needs to be blown when the ball is airborn? For example, Spurs/Arse game there, there was a free-kick then the whistle was blown as soon as it left his boot. Why not before? The allocated injury time had elapsed.

It's s matter of perception. The general process is to let the play finish it's active phase. While technically time may have expired during imagine if the referee blew for time during a 1-on-1 breakaway. Just won't happen. So the referee will always try to finish the phase of play. It's not written into the LOTG but it's the accepted procedure to only end the game while the ball is in play.

Why didn't we wear our 'Brazil' kit v Fulham?

 

Contracted to wear the third away/change kit a certain number of times, I would guess.

 

FYP. Away/change is blue, 3rd is yellow

I was just torturing myself and thinking back to the Sunderland match - why is that pitch invaders at matches are all, to a man, terrible at football?  If you are going to invade the pitch and get a ban, you might as well at least lash the ball at the goal from 20 yards out as opposed to waddling towards the ball and scuffing it along the ground.

Is the Paully that's mocked at the start of the new True Faith podcast the same Paully from here?  The references to bright clothes makes me think so...

 

Aye, he does the away match reports for them

Has there ever been a case of two players in the same team having exactly the same name and, if so, what was on the back of the tops?

 

The whole Mousa/Moussa Dembele thing made me think of it - although they never played together.
