The Random Football Debate Thread

Shout out to the SMSgt who yesterday asked me who the best team in the world was and was baffled when I said Man City won everything last season so probably them.

He genuinely thought Saudi clubs dominated world football.

WTAF?

the guys an a grade cunt.

im at an absolute loss as to why we cant give the girls a chance

Bringing some London hooligans to Norn Ireland what a perfect way to help the peace process…

To be fair with most of these plans they were suggestions they weren’t decisions sensibly considered.

It’s the idea of putting an absolutely stupid idea so you get acceptance on a normal one.

Sadly the stupid ideas have been taken up in the last decade.

Me: Remember, there are no stupid ideas in a brain storm
Them: Lets move Wimbledon to Belfast
Me: Tony, you are the exception. That is fucking stupid. Anyone else have anything that isnt fucking stupid?

There was a brief movement to get Wimbledon to Dublin. Eamon Dunphy was involved, and a few businessmen were actively engaging in negotiations.
Keague of Ireland clubs were preparing for a legal battle when it all faded out.

Edit…
The rumours of Dion Dublin moving to the crazy gang made for an interesting headline…

Wimbledon for Dublin and Dublin for Wimbledon…neither move ever gained momentum

I bet that was always your dream MH :wink:

Always said he had a good touch for a big man :rofl:

Indoor football still big in Germany during the winter break.

Two big U19s tournaments this week.

This one from Göttingen (starting Thursday afternoon until Sunday) is the biggest in Europe. Fulham participating for the 9th time this year. Pretty sure Harvey and Fabio played there too.

And at the weekend we have the prestigious Mercedes Benz Junior Cup from Sindelfingen (near Stuttgart). Many kids who played there over the years went on to have big professional careers.

Our U18s won it in 2019 but we haven’t been participating since.

Livestreams for both tournaments will be on YouTube.

@Sweeting maybe something for you :wink:

Beyond it being genuinely amusing, his videos really illustrate the inanity of football punditry.

:joy:
The absolutely best bit is Taggart, Savage’s own teammate, seemingly being willing to facilitate him getting a kicking

Svengali leaves me cold. Always seemed self interested and even his statement here seems empty - really better not reported.
