    Match Thread Everton 3-0 Notts Forest. Sat 6th December

    All I really know about Finland is they were conquered by Russia and the people have a reputation for being armed to the teeth and moody, yet there still aren't tons of mass shootings...oh and school starts at 10 or something.

    Match Thread Bournemouth 0-1 Everton. Tue Dec 2. 7.30

    I've never understood why people take this position (nothing personal). Sure, the top teams in the premier league make the bottom ones look incompetent. That's because they are amongst the top teams in the world. If you take the 10th placed premier league team and have them play the 10th...

    Christmas 2025

    Had a similar experience with them, but with desks for the kids. Ordered 3, 2 arrived slightly damaged, got two more off them, but they didn't want the originals back. Wound up with 5 of them and gave the 2 slightly dinged ones away. Have the Christmas tree from them too, except it is a bigger...

    2026 FIFA World Cup

    Not sure how you can pin this on the Americans. None of the people involved are american. I dont think it does. In Russia or Korea you would have a massive shift in attendance based upon the home team advancing, but amrruca is so multicultural that it is hardly important which teams go through.

    2025/26 Idrissa Gana Gueye

    Every time I have seen the man over the past decade, I have felt he is a beautiful positive man that I want to shake his hand. One of my favourite players over the years despite his limitations (please don't shoot). He has had a moment out of character. I have had some moments out of character...

    Bad ref decisions - for and against - season 2025/26

    We have to remember as well that the laws of the game are written for all age groups. If this was 12 year olds, you probably want them sent off. I get that you referee differently for different levels, and I agree with you as well that subjectivity is built into the long. I agree with your post.

    Well done Scotland........

    All I'm say8ng is that before other nations played football, england wales Scotland, ireland were playing "internationals" against each other. Fifa was formed but the home nations didn't join until a compromise was reached allowing them to join as separate members. It is a political...

    Well done Scotland........

    Because the home nations were playing internationals before fifa was formed. Plus the rules committee ifab is made up 50% by the home nations who aren't likely to vote themselves out of existence.

    Today’s Football 25/26 Season

    I only saw the last 20 minutes. Turned it on just after the dorgu goal. Was a fantastic ending. Couldn't believe how much unpunished time wasting Denmark engaged in. Though 6 minutes was quite short. And the ref just kept going once he knew Denmark needed more time. Scotland wasn't supposed to...

    Well done England....

    Ppopulation is only 1 factor. Soccernomics is a good book in this regard. I know some of the comments here are tongue in cheek, but this does seem to be poorly understood by many. No point in having a large population if a country has no history playing the game, like the United States or...

    Job interview during which you realised you weren't getting the Job.

    Have had the opposite problem before where I was confident of getting the job only to find out later I had no chance. Would you rather be in my shoes or yours?
