This should be tempered slightly by the fact that footballers seems to have kids at a much younger age than normals.

Silver Fox Owen Beck is Ian Rush's great nephew too

All of a sudden I feel every single one of my 52 years, unless Owen is a star performer in their U7s team.

To do it four times in a single game is shit finishing. C4Y I hope Nunez does end up scoring a bucket load of goals as I really like him as a player. His work rate is superb and he never seems to let his head drop when he's not scoring. Very Bobby Firmino-esque at the moment in that he's not gettin...

Taking shirt off should be an instant red, players have had long enough to learn they're not supposed to do it.

Ok with lifting shirt up to display a message.

Is the Guinea derby always a bit spicy? Reckon he'd have got away with it if he'd made a ball shaped gesture with his hands.

20 minutes into the game Genk are awarded a penalty, its saved but they score the rebound. VAR tells the ref to disallow it because the player who scored the rebound was just inside the penalty area when the penalty was first taken. VAR didn't notice that some opposition players were also inside th...

Brogue callum wilson to utd for 18 mill? cant work out whether this is good or not, im on the side of not atm

it's horseshit

You reckon its more like £28M with the crack Man U negotiation team on the case Brobs?

End of the Gambia v Cameroon match is mental. Cameroon were 1-2 down with minutes to go. Now winning 3-2 and Gambia have just had a goal disallowed for a deliberate handball, and you won't see a more obvious handball, that somehow the ref misses and VAR had to give.

Make that 4-0.

Up the Equatorials.
Equatorial Guinea 3-0 up and the hosts could be out at the group stage

Winston Biscuit 'Welcome to matchday 20'

Fuuuuuck right off with that sh*t

Especially when due to TV rights Matchday 20 is in fact Matchdays 20 spread over 6 days.

Here's as good a place as any to put it as I keep forgetting. Jnr II's team had a really good ref doing their match a couple of weeks ago. Made clear decisions and talked to the players throughout explaining why he had or hadn't given decisions and praised the kids for good play. Little things like ...

I thought the same sangers. You hope he'd come back with a bit of humility and say all the right things about thanking Brentford for supporting him and wanting to do his best to turn their season around even if in private he's thinking about leaving. You'd hope his agent would be telling him this an...

Sutekh Tunisia 0-1 Namibia

Rank outsiders (115 in the world) turning over a tournament favourite in the 88th minute.

Couldn't decide whether the Namibian keeper was having as good a game as the commentators reckoned or if Tunisia were just rubbish in front of goal.

Still seems bizarre that a player who has struggled to get into a League 1 team this year is heading to the Premier League (if only for a few months). What are the Luton fans saying?

Have Man United considered letting S'Alex sit on the bench. That always used to guarantee a few extra penalties a season.

How does it work for promoted clubs like Forrest? Are the EFL and Premier League rules the same so they can use 3 years of accounts.

Is he injured again at the moment? Just suddenly realised when watching the match yesterday that he was nowhere to be seen and I couldn't remember when I last saw him on a pitch.

Given the way the club was being run, I reckon we'd have wasted the Premier League money getting ineffectual players in on huge wages. They we'd have wasted the parachute payments having forgotten to put relegation clauses into contracts and chasing the 'dream' again.
