Today’s Football - 2024/25 Season

[Vintage]

Atmosphere doesn’t tend to be electrifying in home fixtures against whipping boys.

Ah the supporting the all winning trophy laden England side too good to create an atmosphere against worse teams excuse. Sounds a bit kopitish

I mean it’s the case in all of football and not just England. Liverpool and City win everything and their atmospheres are crap at home to lower division sides too. So is Everton’s, for what it’s worth.

Well played the Everton ladies today. I'd take the same result in a few weeks in the mens.

I’d definitely wouldn’t say no to the same referee taking that game

Got the ball…..

You'll get the same performance RP but maybe not the same result

Why’s that depressing?

Why’s that depressing?

israeli football isn't exactly held in high esteem currently, and belgium have fallen off a cliff. A two punch combo of not very positive.

They’ll win the last 2 games and could stick a few on Ireland to make the goal difference up, I think England will finish top.

The Israel players or coaching staff haven’t committed any way crimes btw.

At no point did I suggest they had. I like liverpool fc losing, not because of any players particularly but the entitlement and attitudes of their fans I find disturbing. The recent histrionics in Amsterdam left a bit of a sour note, and really, I'd have like to have seen banned all (or at least most) sporting endeavour conducted by israeli sides/team/individuals cancelled like what has happened similar to russia.

I am not sure there is a way to keep politics out of sport, as noble an ideal as that might be.

I’m unaware of this to be fair

Not really sure the state of a nation can be lobbied against a football team myself but each to their own.
