Come on you Irons!

Also fuck Michael Oliver with a hot sharp poker.

So it's crazy that people will make threats against officials. No matter how bad they are death threats are not ok. That said PGMOL is blaming Arsenal and their fans for death threats to Michael Oliver. Turns out the death threats were from 3 weeks before this past match it was right after a Liverpool match.

Ross County are on a great run of form. We're up to 7th in the league! Our centre back scored an overhead kick today as we swatted away Dundee 3-1.

We've won 7 games since I last went to a match, and I hadn't seen us win in 2 years before that. So I am clearly never allowed to go and see them again.

Hands down his best performance for The Arsenal

5 to 1 on aggregate!

What a game this Inter v Barca semi-final has been.

One of the all-time great two-legged ties... although some of the defending has been dodgy at best.

Wee update on this - we just got relegated. After I made this post, we won no more games. I hate football.

A question for our American friends: is anyone actually watching the Club World Cup, which starts at 8pm Eastern tonight?

Come to think of it, does anyone know it's on?

Does anyone even care?

 

[OldSchool]

I know it's on and it depends on who's playing when and what else is going on. My club isn't in it so that lessens the interest. And I won't travel to a match since they aren't in it either.

 

[ScotsRam]

I might watch the odd game since there's not much else on at the moment sport-wise. I can't say I'm bothered about it though.

 

[HX76]

Absolute load of shit.

 

[OldSchool]

Most of the games are going at the end of my work day so I haven't watched anything.

 

[Londoner]

I haven't watched a single minute of it. The whole competition is just another sportswashing project for the Saudis, and an ego trip for Slaphead Infantino.

My condolences to Palace fans

Think that was a desperation move for Palace, as they had to find a buyer quickly to circumvent ownership rules which would have meant they couldn't play in the Europa League next season.

So strange rooting for a team coached by Pochettino
