Two wrongs don't make a right but mocking people dying in a tragedy is a different form of low 

Compared to trying to assault someone with a piece of metal!? Sorry but both are equally as scummy at best.

First time in forever Wales haven’t had Belgium. Don’t know whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

Don't forget the Dalglish purchases of 36 year old Ian Rush, 34 year old John Barnes and a 35 year old Stuart Pearce.

Tony Sirico, aka Paulie Walnuts, has passed away aged 79

Sketchy decision

Wow, so much salt in this thread

Well except when he's whingy and annoying, but I suppose that's all managers.

Yeah absolutely. Show me a manager that doesnt whine.

Getttinnnnnn!!!! Absolutely demolished them the first half. 3-2 flattered them. 

Also their fans can get fucked for booing and chanting during the minutes silence for Hillsborough. 

Think demolished is a bit strong considering the 2nd goal was an utter farce.

But agreed - booing any memorial, especially a memorial for 97 people, is peak cunt. Fuck the lot of them.

EDIT: If you want to despair at humanity, go have a look at the Man City forums. Jesus.

I've had a few gins, but imo Klopp goes into the mount rushmore of football managers. Just all round nice bloke who happens to be an absolute football genius, but also incredibly humble at the same time.

I'm a Cardiff fan so completely neutral. But Klopp is what all modern day football manager should live up to. Now let me go and pour myself another gin.

How the hell have Bengals made the Super Bowl with this O-line? 

Flipping heck. That's the most dreadful mime job i've ever seen.

Great game. Could have gone either way but Scotland seemed gassed the last 20 or so minutes.

Yeah learned that lesson a fair few months ago! But yeah as you said, the day out is much better than the performances.

As an aside, can we cancel the Six Nations?

Haha agreed. I'm not all that surprised, Wales are fairly crippled by injuries and haven't been great for a while.

Not to take anything away from Ireland though - they look pretty good 👍

Moved to Newport in the summer, decided to get stuck in and bought a Dragons season ticket.

Now, the Dragons, bless them, are not very good. Five games into the season, only one win, and that was an away game up in Galway, Ireland.

But dyou what, it is a fucking good time. Sit by some die hards who are really nice (and regularly read the paper I write for), get access to the season ticket holder bar which has character, and something to do in my spare time in a new city.

Went along to see the Dragons development team play the Scarlets development team tonight. Only about 1,000 people there. Did we win? Quite definitively not. Was it a good laugh? Fuck yes. 

 

I live in/grew up in Newport - one thing I've learnt about watching the Dragons over 15 or so years is that you go to games knowing full well they're likely to lose. They had some really strong characters back when the regions were formed but they're not great these days. Rodney Parade is still always a good laugh regardless. 

Think given the shit that happened at Hillsborough etc, stuff like this gets people’s emotions going. Again, I definitely don’t condone punching people or racism.

It is, but why would your reaction be "let's knock fuck out of our fellow fans who are invading"? Just let security and the police deal with them. They're clearly not worried about COVID since they're not wearing masks and happy to get stuck in. Probably more upset some people are getting whatever they paid for, for free!

I've seen people sneaking into festivals...my response was a shake of the head and a laugh, not BAM, RIGHT HOOK

The team is the best of England; a lot of the "fans" are the dirt worst.

Don’t condone hitting people - but this to me looks like people trying to rush into the ground via a fire exit and those inside reacting to that?

I really think people are making a lot of this. Derby game, poor performance, but 4 points is fine from two games. We'll play better than that going forward.

Who against? Not particularly good against a poor Croatia side. Poor against a low ranking Scottish side. I wouldn't be surprised if the Czech Republic grab a win in this next game.

France/Italy would have torn England to pieces tonight, and I think part of that is to do with selections like Tyrone Mings, Kalvin Phillips, Reece James, Declan Rice and Mason Mount. They're good players but they're not top international standard - not yet anyway.

Lee Dixon is such a mopey dickhead.

I liked that post but I am currently top of the Bundesliga after 7 with Schalke, having beaten both Bayern and Leipzig, so maybe it's a bit too easy currently.

You’ve still got the inevitable 20 game winless streak October/November to come 

Insane goal from Hoilett

Saw Hereditary. I have mixed feelings.

Been playing around with going to see it, all reviews I’ve seen have been amazing.

what was/wasn’t good about it?

That photo is fitting of the game as a whole

No, I meant your typo. I mean... wait. Matthew McConaughey was in Lion?!

I just assumed you were talking about the movie Gold and made a typo.

Oops yeah, sorry Gold

Not a fan?

The Lobster - Just... really strange. I actually found it pretty hilarious at times because of how utterly deadpan it all is. Quite disturbing at times as well, also oddly touching.

Just read the synopsis for this, sounds incredible.

Watched Lion (2016) last night, I know it's only partly based on true events but it's unbelievable how something like that can go on for so long unnoticed. Matthew McConaughey is again fantastic.
