Think it’s own thread is needed now to discuss what is happening, what will happen, as well as all the potential ramifications if/when things get worse.
Serie A is suspended until April at the earliest, some champions league games are to be played in empty stadiums this week and it seems...
I've noticed a bit of chatter about this in various threads so I thought it time to whip up another one of these threads.
Where do the big 6 keepers rank in your opinion?
Mine:
1 De Gea
2 Alisson
3 Kepa
4 Ederson
5 Lloris
6 Leno
Following on from the highly successful managers thread comes another absolute banger from your truly.
At the start of the season it was billed as the season of the strikers with Chelsea, United and Arsenal all making big money centre forward signings. In pre-season people were talking about...
Just wondering in what order everyone would rank the managers of the big 6 teams in the Premier League. Might spark some interesting debate and with a bit of luck a shitfight or two as well.
Mine:
Guardiola
Conte
Mourinho
Klopp
Pochettino
Wenger
I think Guardiola is the clear number 1 right...
Karl Pilkington has written a sitcom - http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2017-09-20/sky-1-to-take-edgy-new-comedy-route-with-scripted-shows-from-karl-pilkington-and-romesh-ranganathan/
Pilkington’s new series, Sick of It, is his first scripted comedy and sees the erstwhile Ricky Gervais...
This is a thread for the offended Arsenal fans to salivate at every missed pass or over hit cross that Ox delivers this season so that instead of derailing other threads they can jerk each other off in here.
Then later on once they've all disappeared I will be jerking myself off as I gloat...
In true Matthew Lloyd style, this is the BigFooty rolling PL team of the season where each week the team will be updated to reflect who is doing the business out there on the pitch.
But unlike the velvet sledgehammer, I welcome all feedback and suggestions as it's impossible for me to get...

Dirk Kuyt has retired from football after banging a hat-trick to help Feyenoord win the Eredivisie for the first time since 1999.
Over 100 caps for the Netherlands, a Liverpool favourite and one of the best big game players I've ever seen.
Unfortunately the two most interesting fixtures of the weekend have been postponed due to the EFL Cup final.
The big interest on Saturday is all about whether a resurgent Swansea can cause Chelsea problems. Probably not.
Spurs v Stoke on Sunday could be a good game, and then there's Leicester...
The first international break of the season is here. Salvation at last! I wasn't sure how much more club football I could put up with but thankfully the long wait is over and the real stuff is here.
Ever since the Euros finished, this is what we've all been waiting for. There's something...
Noticed that it's been discussed in multiple threads so thought it might be an idea to condense it all to one place.
I don't think any one comes out of this well whether that be the Russians, the English, the French, the police or UEFA but as I said in another thread it seems to me that the...
Just to get an idea of what everyone's thinking ahead of the tournament and then look back and revel in our own stupidity.
Winner:
Runner-up:
Dark horse:
Biggest flop (team):
Player of the tournament:
Top scorer:
How far will England get:
Right, I've hastily compiled a list of the 30 players (50 is too much effort) I believe to have been the biggest disappointment of the 2015/16 season.
In a form of solidarity with Brother Bojan no player from his Top 50 will be included in the list, even if they may deserve it...
Comes out in UK cinemas this August. Hopefully it gets a cinema release here as well but I'm not sure.
Stephen Merchant isn't involved and I haven't found Gervais funny in a while so the warning signs are there that this could be a massive flop, but I have to say I'm still excited.
I'm not...
Hey guys, this is the thread for all things supercoach.
I was also asked by chef to pass on this message:
I thought it was a bit harsh and begged him to reconsider but you know what these pastry guys are like.
Notched his 8th goal in 32 games this season the other night. He is currently 2 goals ahead of Rudy Gestede, and well & truly out of the running for this season's golden boot.
To give you some perspective of the scale of what he is on track to achieve, as pointed out in another thread the last...
Just wondering what football podcasts people listen to, if any?
The only one I never miss is The Football Ramble, it's easily my favourite. Football Weekly is ok and I've been enjoying Graham Hunter's new podcast, the latest one with Peter Beardsley was very good.
As for club specific ones, I...
KICK-OFF TIMES ARE AUSTRALIAN CENTRAL TIME WHICH MEANS YOU EASTERN STATERS WILL HAVE TO DO THE MATHS FOR ONCE
Hey guys! It's that time of the week again. What time is that you ask? It's time for some stinkin football fun!
So where diddily ding dong do we start? Well I'll tel-diddly-ell you -...
The Guardian have recently named their top 100 footballers of the year. Things like this are fairly arbitrary but thought it might spark some interesting discussion.

Don't know how many Bill Burr fans are on here but he's got a new animated show coming to Netflix on December 18.
I love Bill's stand-up and podcast and am looking forward to this.
Fixtures for the new season have been released. What's everyone's thoughts?

Interesting start for us with our first seven away games being Stoke, Arsenal, United, Everton, Spurs...
