Do any folk know where the AFCON is being shown on the Tele?

 

Used to really enjoy the highlights shows/roundups back in the day on BBC

0 - 0 's on terrible pitches, no thanks.

Reasons to feel less passionate about football these days:

 

VAR

LED pitchside advert boards

Daft amounts of stoppage time

5 subs

FFP

FMV

UEFA Coefficient

ESL

Players wearing daft numbers

Players having their nickname on their shirt, not surname

Socks with scissor cuts in the back

Socks over the knees as a fashion statement

Sock pulled down to mid-shin as a fashion statement

Tiny shinpads the size of credit cards

6's, 8's, 10's, double pivot midfielders, inverted wingers

The game immediately stopping because a player decides to sit down "injured"

Idiots at matches watching the game through their phones

Blaydon Races being sung at a billion mph

The pre-match version of Blaydon Races with the drums

xG

Stadium music after goals

Fire blasters on pitch before games

Flashing stadium lights before games

Neville and Carragher commentating on their own teams

Clive Tyldesley still commentating 

Commentators and pundits whoring themselves out to multiple broadcasters in the same country

DJ Fucking Otzi

Enjoy The Game !

Ticket ballots

Allocated seating

Massive turnstile queues 

Online touts

Big monotonous continuous drums

ID checks outside away ends

Only one coach allowed in the technical area

Jurgen Klopp

Twitter ITK's

Twitter WUM's

Twitter

The current interpretation of the handball rule

The current interpretation of the offside rule

 

That's just off the top of my head, am sure there's more

I have a completely irrational dislike of squad numbers generally, and a very specific dislike of players’ names on the strips.

So fucking tiring having people like Barton and Farage whose only currency is stirring hate. Literally the only thing they’re good at is getting people angry 

Most of those cunts are already angry.  They’re just coining it off the back of them.

Oldest trick in the book. Talentless dickheads have been keeping themselves relevant for decades by spouting vile antagonistic shit. If people just ignored it they’d have to stop. It’s the reactions that create news that create relevance that create income. Hopkins, Farage, Price, Tate etc. People just play right into their hands

Positive way of staying relevant unfortunately. Being controversial and negative is bound to generate views.

Probably his only option. GB News sports show. 

 

He's had a middling lower league managerial career like. Probably be able to get a L2/Conf job no bother before all this. Saying that there's probably more dinero in the grifting game long term.

It’s certainly less work.

Thing is, he's not done too bad in his two jobs to date, got Bristol Rovers promoted, did a half decent job at Fleetwood. If he'd just kept his mouth shut he'd have probably got himself another League 2 job, but instead he insists or being a fucking arse, which makes him super unemployable.

God knows how/where this poll was conducted but surprised to see us squeezed on to the end of Everton's list. Can't believe our fans are still that pissed at Villa, too.

 

Listing 5 rivals feels a bit excessive though tbf so I guess it'll get tenuous by the fourth or fifth for most.
