Okay let’s take a look… 1. Recommended new rules - nope, you’ve been told what the  rules are. 2. Overcrowded schedule - stop pushing for more European games. 3. Longer games - nope, ju

What a post. 🤦‍♂️ How about for the good of the game? How about to aid the plethora of clubs that have been the foundation of football in this country for 150 years and are the bedrock of the dee

Women’s football thread. 

Having a debate without either posters or the mods clamping down on it gets ever harder on here…
 

I think we’re pretty fair unless people start being dicks and I stand by that.

I’m away this weekend, so I haven’t been on much and can’t comment on the thread being hidden, but can certainly look into it…

I can’t believe women’s football isn’t football?

I was just about to post about the Women's WC which has started today and I'm currently watching and enjoying NZ v Norway via BBC 1.

Are such posts banned on here, I missed all of the previous deleted stuff and what occured.

They aren’t banned?

Happy for you to create a Women’s Football thread tbf. Not happy for anyone to be sexists or misogynists though.

I think that this is an odd signing; BBC: Zaha to Turkey

He'd been at Palace all but 1 year of his pro career. What made him decide on Turkey? 

Aged 30, getting a 3 year contract at a big fee and wages and Champions League football and the probability of continued success and medals during his time there.

Still seems strange, I understand after his Man Utd experience why he would not want to be a squad player at a top English club again, but surely could have got himself a Champions League club (where he would be in the first 11)  in Italy, France, Portugal, Spain, Germany etc, Turkey is a few rungs down from those.  He may as well have moved to the old firm albeit he will have much nicer weather in Istanbul

Valid points, I hadn't appreciated how low Turkey in ranked for European competition, just above Cyprus.

Still they pay well and such a fabulous place.

It will be interesting to see if he does the full contract term.

Just seen this on Twitter. Well worth a read. 
 

Aaron Ramsdale

Absolutely fantastic.

No matter how successful a football player is, they're real people - despite often being reduced to mere pawns in the world of football. 

He comes across fantastically.

He confirms what some of us has said for some time: Never forget that our players have personal lives that could serioysly impact their performance. In addition - like Ramsdale points out - you need a good manager. I often think when players are underperforming it’s related to something off the field on a personal level. Not an excuse but a possible explanation for some lacklustre performances from some of our players.

But good find and a very good read. After all this nonsense with Saudi-Arabia buying everything at insane prices it’s good to see someone put a human face on football. Oh - loved the bit about his connection with the fans!
