Football

Is it my TV or are the colours all a bit weird in UHD?

Seems to fade brighter colours to more muted from left to right on mine

Does your telly have different colour settings when it gets a HDR signal?

I just want a telly to be a telly.

(I did try iPlayer UHD on my 4K monitor and it looked ok, but the nuances (audio and video) pass me by, which makes my life a lot lot cheaper.)

Football is good though, despite the despotic regime.

Looks like Utd fans just might get what they hoped for. Glazers out Ratcliffe in?

Looking forward to the Utd fans boycotting Petrochem guy after giving it to the Saudis/Toon.

Football is lolz.
With apologies to ted lasso.

Super Ally ❤️❤️

The Germans being creative to make a mockery of FIFA. You love to see it. I wish they had the balls to go all in but at least it’s a start.

Their interior minister wearing the armband next to Infant-ino is the icing on the cake.

Also note that FIFA can’t make a rule about bookings has to go through IFAB.

So someone needs to wear it call their bluff. Give it to Sterling, he has a bit about him to do it.

Didn’t see that coming.

Great game.

That Japan kit is surely soon to be a classic

No it's lovely.
And what a result! Always liked Japan and South Korea as they are such good technical footballers . Also all the Japanese players I've played with or against have been so good on the ball.

Edit. Makes this group v spicy now

Bookies must be loving this world cup so far!

It's already sold out at Adidas so I guess it already is.

Bloody typical that this WC has had some great games and proper upsets.

Still got large at pro direct soccer.
Also it's one of the best crests ever.

I hate FIFA for making it impossible to even enjoy great WC upsets.

I'm betting on a penalty being awarded in every game from now on.

You can still enjoy it for the people and fans of the country doing the upsetting. Like Saudi Arabia upsetting Argentina you can enjoy it for the football fans of Saudi. I understand the boycot but you can still smile for the upsetters

Does anyone collect shirts or have any shirts of particular interest they would share?

I wouldnt say that I am particularly a collector, but I have 4 of interest.

More 0-0 draws though (so far).

ITV seemed to have turned the background audio up to 11 in the Spain game, the commentary is almost inaudible.

It's better than listening to the drivel that Tyldesley spouts.
