Is this still a sport?

I consider this sport WWE wrestling with all the fake flopping that goes on.


Just messing with the soccer fans

Tano by all means take the piss, but it’s diving not flopping.

That is a giant oversight, unbelievable. I hope they figure it out because I will be there.

They'll figure it out --- just means more $$$ - to be thrown in.

Just got this off the interwebs -- Soccer fields are larger than football fields and cover a larger area. A soccer field is between 100-130 yards in length and 50-100 yards wide. A Football field is 360 feet (120 yards) long and 160 feet (53.3 yards) wide.

I did not know that - I had assumed they were the same size.

Yes 120 x 80 is common for soccer from about mid teen years on.
Apparently nobody asked Kroenke who certainly should know this

Disappointing to lose right at the end like that but the eggs are well and truly all in one basket now.

What a year for my sports teams… I think my heart and life expectancy has taken a battering this last few months. UP THE CHERRIES.

Preach brother. Ross County are on the verge of qualifying for Europe for the first time in our history. Ross fucking County. In fucking EUROPE. Hope we don't fuck it up. Top 5 in Scotland qualify this season and we are 5th with 3 games left...

Those next three games:

Home Motherwell
At Rangers
Home Dundee

What are your chances of hanging on to 5th place?

Motherwell are in terrible form and are the team in 6th so realistically if we win today its pretty much confirmed. Big game.

Normally playing away to Rangers is a guaranteed hammering but they will be focused on their Europa League final and they have already lost the league so we will hope to catch them unfocused.

Dundee United are our bogey team - they fucking always beat us. Always. Regardless of how well each is doing at the time. Kinda like the Cardinals being the Rams bitches. So I hope we don't need anything in that last game... although it is at home at least.

We lost at home to Motherwell, 1-0. I am not pleased.
