My youth team were terrible. I was a right back, but my highlight was a game away to Chipstead which was a proper ground with changing rooms so it seemed a big deal. For this game I was a sub, we were 7-0 down, I was sent on, but as a striker. This wasn’t communicated with the captain (managers son) who kept telling me to get back while the manager told me to get forward, so I knackered myself out.

Ended up staying up front and scored two (our only goals of the game). I think we lost 2-11. Tore my knee ligaments s few weeks later and never got back into it.

What might have been. If I’d ended up a striker.

Shame they didn’t get caught doing it to Stoke. Spy spy spy Bielsa scans quite nicely.

Love this as ammunition. Can’t tell if it ranks above or below keeping a spreadsheet of Foden’s minutes.

If I don’t manage to get tickets for this, I’m looking at Hertha vs Wolfsburg on the Saturday afternoon. Are Hertha alright (as in, they’re not pure baddies or anything are they)?

They play fantastic attacking football.

They have great players.

They have a wonderfully charismatic and entertaining manager.

But the thought of Liverpool winning the league for the first time since 1990 appears to have caused a significant divide - at least on social media and radio phone-ins.

This is exactly the kind of shit from the media that makes even most complete neutrals want them to fail.

ruffers´ veil slipping here

Nick Dare, Newport County fan: My rant could go on forever but I can’t be bothered even talking about them. I’d rather Cardiff won it and that hurts to think about, let alone write down.

2 out of 3 of those are fair though… right…?

Or just the fact the piece exists?

Ah! You’re going the one weekend a year they are both playing, a mate came over for that last year and both ended 0-0 :joy:

Hertha are fine, they’re pretty bland really (TW: they have a lot of similar bear imagery to Rangers) so the atmosphere isn’t as good as Union BUT it’s worth it for the Olympiastadion which is an amazing building. Is thoroughly recommend trying to get to both if you can!

Cheers, will get Hertha tickets for now and keep an eye on the Union resale tickets.
