HaydnNUFC Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 When did Soccer AM stop being widely watched? As a kid always seem to remember it being on on a Saturday morning before going to the match, then just, well, stopped. Cold turkey pretty much as well. I know loads of people say it went downhill when Lovejoy left but I only remember it with Max Rushden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I'd say when Lovejoy left. Loved it up until that point, although was a youngin so it could well have been shite in reality. Definitely will have aged very badly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stal Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (Slightly NSFW) Had to watch that 3 or 4 times before I caught on...then maybe another 3 or 4 times. Just to make sure. But yeah, Soccer AM was like Loaded Magazine but on TV and mainly football. Didn't really like it that much. Now the first few seasons of Fantasy Football, I thoroughly enjoyed those.

Deuce Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 If you could see any particular match (i.e. El Clásico) or visit any ground around the world for a match, what would it be? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 BVB for a match. Would like to visit the San Siro too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Less fussy about individual fixtures but stadiums to visit off the top of my head would be Azteca for a Mexico or big America game Racing v Independiente or one of the other big 5 at El Cilindro A big European game at Fenerbahce or Besiktas complete with boat trip to the game. Not sure when they’re moving but more realistically I’d like to go to de Kuip before it’s obsolete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Thinking on this with Arsenal visiting tomorrow, but what clubs go on to have continued or greater success after spunking millions on a new stadium or big expansion. We're obviously an example of it going wrong, as are Arsenal and I expect Spurs to be the same. City were given their stadium so wouldn't include them, Chelsea maybe?

Wolfcastle Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Al Ahyl v Zamalek used to bring in referees from outside the country back as far back as the 80s it was that fierce. Decades before Roma Lazio did it, if were looking for a passionate experience.

Not sure when they’re moving but more realistically I’d like to go to de Kuip before it’s obsolete. I still think the Azteca is my favourite stadium. And feel the same about pretty much any old stadium before it goes cos all my romance for football has gone on the new ones mean nothing. Wanted to go to all the USA 94 stadiums but several are gone and/or changed beyond recognition now. Verona's Bentegodi and Montpellier's (if its still as was from the 90s) are probably the only grounds left and/or unchanged in Europe I'd like to go to that I haven't been to now sadly. Was quite a few Prater Stadium, Lehen stadium in Austria, San Mames in Bilbao. Edited May 1, 2021 by Wolfcastle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much every Italian club before and after Italia 90 was successful after stadium expansions, new stadiums. Blackburn arguably. Won the league the year their rebuild was complete. Pretty strong in two of the next three seasons but then they went down too. Reading - much better profile/status post Madjeski than before same docile atmosphere though. They used to herald it as a bright new dawn but seemed more like a curse starting with Millwall. But nobody mackems, Boro, Chesterfield, Derby Southampton, Bolton, Notts County (total rebuild) was any different with new stadiums than they were before and all (with the exception of Derby) were swiftly relegated. After the first few where I though "oh these could be contenders now" it just came off like someone's getting a boring new ground and nothing more.

Fantail Breeze Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 5th place will now almost certainly get CL qualification, no? Chelsea and Man City both look fairly certain of qualifying through league position and meet in the final. But it doesn’t seem to be part of the conversation when spoken about in the media?

No. In the event Chelsea wins the CL but finishes 5th, they'll get the 4th CL spot and the team that finishes 4th in the league goes to the EL instead. It was changed after the Liverpool debacle.

Went for the atrocious game v Slovakia in the Euros, quality ground. France does a good job of building decent stadium that holds the atmosphere.

Was changed after the season we finished 5th when Spurs didn't get into the CL because Chelsea won it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
