Football

We are BACK BABY!!! Ah, all that winning was so not us, this is like a warm, cuddly blanket. Only 3 more games this month. Andy Robertson must be gasping for a holiday.

Realise this is more for discussion of the game, not playing it but

Need a new pair of boots, for playing indoor turf. Would like to avoid ridiculous colours if possible. Can anyone recommend something comfortable?

Was Kane not offside for that penalty?

That's exactly what I thought.

My son and I both laughed out loud when they gave it. Don't think they even checked the offside. VAR is a joke

It appears I was wrong:

Fair enough. Clear pen all be it a bit soft. Thought Germany played very well and can see them being a fun team to watch under Flick. I'm sure there's a subbuteo joke in there somewhere

Not looking good for Derby

Lots of clubs now pushing for us to be expelled from the league completely. That might be a ploy to make a takeover by Mike Ashley and league status survival look attractive.

I’m not in your shoes but would you rather obliteration than Mike Ashley?

FIFA thinking about kick-ins. le sigh

I fear we might get both

I think Mike Ashley got a bit of bad press because the Newcastle fans expected an owner to spunk 100s of millions on the club for no return.

Sir Bradley Wiggins did well in goal for @hippy & Co with his funky dancing. Enjoy the WC.

He is a bad idiot, but I’d have him over a gulf state with an appalling human rights record.

I'm going to be away for big chunks of next season so I have two Arsenal season tickets to rent. Deadline for renewal is today at 5pm.

£1100 each (face value), DM if interested.

Vincent Kompany finally confirmed as new Burnley manager. Together with most of our team being out of contract it's going to make for an interesting season.

What a choice! I love modern football.

Ok, 1 Arsenal season ticket left to rent if anybody is interested.

England looked very unimaginative tonight

A friend has the theory that only one of England Cricket/Rugby/Football team can be good at any one time. Cricket has it at the moment.

Southgate basically using the tournament as a friendly/team selection exercise. Everyone’s knackered after a long season, managers of some of the bigger players probably leaning on him to rest/rotate. Does anyone really care if we win/lose the nation’s league? Getting battered by Hungary maybe not great for the morale though.

I'm assured by a claret acquaintance that Kompany's appointment relied on a number of fringe MCFC young players going on loan.
