And this is why this is the best forum around.

 

[NUFC Tiger]

Interesting NUFC Tiger 8m on a guy who may be 27 is a bit much. But he may be only 21 or 25 too so who knows!

He's just a bloke who loves birthday cake!

All good though, seems he is 'thankfully' only 20. His agent said last week he had all the supporting documentation to verify it and given the FA has signed off on it/given him the work permit, I assume they would have validated the documents confirming/establishing his true age.

If memory serves me, we had a similar issue with Obafemi Martins back in the day - it could be a relatively common thing for players from African nations maybe?

"Have you ever seen your dick" is still one of the best chants at the football. Cutting? Yes. A bit nasty? Yes. A bit thoughtless? Yes.

Funny? Absolutely.

Football has never been a place for sensitive souls.

Because people have been drawing the comparison to the Goodes issue and the fact Chef is ok with calling Rafa fat but not being racist to Goodes.

That was me and I stand by that - he is happy to abide one form of bullying (Mourinho to Rafa) but outraged by another (the booing of Goodes that might or might not be racist).

Double standard.

Ridiculous comparison.

Good news Jatz Steve Nicol thinks Leicester will be relegated. Guaranteed to stay up now.

Excellent!

Most pundits think we'll go down. Must admit, that thinking surprises me but oh well. I suspect we'll be just fine

If Steve Nicol said that the sun would rise tomorrow, I'd start preparing for the apocalypse.

Hernandez scored a cracker overnight, first good thing he's done in months.

2117 season Football League Cup. Final is between Chelsea and Everton.

Enjoy football while you can Chelsea fans! In 100 years you'll be in League 1 (or 2)

Tthere's a glitch in there.
The highest ever Champions League crowd was 523,945 in 2979.
However the highest average was Celtic with 576,199
Celtic averaged 53k more attendees than the record?

 

[Dirty Bird]

Some of the Europa League records :O
Longest losing streak - 257 games. Principat, 2431-2996
Longeast streak without winning - 740. Lincoln, 2018-2014

Terrific stuff. Liverpool fairly sporadic. Poor over the 1000 years really. We added just 16 league titles. We already have 18 in just over 100 years. So 16 over a 1000 is poor.

16 league titles
21 FA Cups
30 League Cups
4 European Cups
10 Europa League

Total trophies - 81

Or 8.1 trophies per 100 years. Yikes.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Palace losing to Dagenham in a friendly can't have anything good about it.

Does anyone here have reddit?
all I know on the spreadsheet is that FC United never make the EPL.
Can someone ask the OP what their highest position was?

If no one on this board can do it, what about Chadwiko

And apparently the fans in 1000 years still think they're a top club.

I'm guessing Cristiano Ronaldo will be known as Saint Cristiano Ronaldo in this scenario too
