    Anyone else wish we were playing in Europe again?

    I do miss watching us midweek in Europe.....they were good times

    Yep. I’ve been to Whitehawk v Brentwood to make up for it. 😂
    Now that sounds like good times - hopefully there was a pie involved
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    No pies I'm afraid but the worst looking burgers and hot dogs you've ever seen. 🤮

    Anyway Saturday week it's Brentwood v Hornchurch in the FA Trophy 2nd Round. Big big game.

    Joey Barton now found guilty of sending grossly offensive messages, it was only March of this year he was convicted of assault for kicking his wife in the head, and on top of his previous convictions.

    He must make a good case for being the most horrible guy in professional football in the recent era.

    Link in case anyone is interested and missed seeing this.

    (An antidote to reading about Joey Barton!)

    MrsGrey, thanks for the link. I always liked Joe regardless of who he was playing for. He's also a very articulate commentator and analyst.

    What’s going on with the OS? It’s gone a bit weird on my iPad.

    I think they have done a major upgrade. Looks almost professional.

    So TNT have lost all European TV rights from 2027/28 season with Paramount+ and Amazon taking the Champions League and SKY taking the Europa and Conference Leagues.

    So, unsurprisingly, the London Stadium is not included amongst the 22 stadiums named in the 2035 Women's World Cup bid.

    A "World Class Stadium" I think it was called. 😂

    Anfield not on the list either

    Odd reporting by BBC

    Ethihad is in Manchester but Old Trafford is in Trafford while American Express Stadium is in "Brighton & Hove" when its actually in Falmer which is technically in Lewes not Brighton and completely the wrong side of town from Hove

    And always held up as a beacon -

    Just seen on the BBC that Shaka Hislop is being treated for cancer. Probably still to this day my favourite West Ham keeper.

    From the BBC, their FF preview. List of injured players. Apparently the PL now consists of only 19 clubs. West Ham isn't included.

    They are so bad.

    Anyone else watching the world cup draw?

    ….but is nice to hear FIFA now have a Peace Prize. Who knew? 🤦‍♂️
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    For one world cup only... Probably
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Looking at the groups you can pick the top two in each group now without their having to play. The eight best thirds is a bit more difficult as you don’t know who a lot of the teams are going to be until the play offs.

    King Trump putting the medal for the peace price around his own neck gave me serious Napoleon vibes! Dreadful guy!

    Apparently trump just pipped Joey Barton for that FIFA gong.

    Isn’t it nuts how we all thought it couldn’t get worse than Sepp Blatter
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    It's remarkable the amount of intelligent people who are willing to play emperors new clothes and sell their souls because a morally bankrupt prime idiot has found his way to the levers of power. It's embarrassing for all of us.

    candbsky, That comment is accurate on both sides of the pond.

    I always thought it couldn't get any worse than G W Bush
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    Bush was a well rounded, self aware and considered individual compared to this idiot. The only people not to award the idiot whilst knowing he is a fool were the Noble peace prize panel. Everyone else is pretending he isn't a prize idiot and giving him awards in the hope of seeing out his term with minimal damage.
