general soccer lighthearted bullshit topic: where chums can chit-chat

Might be better to save for you in case they don’t get the FA Cup rights figured out and they grab rights for Arsenal FA Cup match

 

this is pretty wild

 

Anyone play fantasy premier league? I joined a league this year and have no fucking clue what I'm doing so I just went to the reddit and copied some other guys team, with a few changes to suit players I like.

 

Yeah we always have a league going here. I am in one with work. Ever play salary cap NFL or daily fantasy? Same principle half the job is just making sure you have guys who are playing and accumulating points.

 

We have a league set up right now, but are in desperate need for more people.

That's so fake. I know how he did it.

 

That touch and turn

 

My word

 

Again

 

Interesting. This will likely put pressure on the EPL to do the same

 

*crosses finger I can be Manc trash in my favorite city(Atlanta)

 

I remember believing Coady was going to be a superstar one day in like 2011/12

 

How?

 

Paypal or Venmo?

 

Already are. The English ones are already bitching that the EPL marching that with one game would completely betray the local fans. They get pissed at the weirdest shit.

 

I’ll be intrigued to see what tickets will go for

 

For NFL/College football I get it. Every other sport has plenty of games. The local fans want the money from foreign fans to help promote the league, make money and help buy better players but can't have 1 game out of the 25-35 home games a season they get moved to another continent? I don't see the issue.

 

EPL already has a pretty strong hold here considering they have by far the best TV deal. I don't think they necessarily need to bring matches over here to drum up interest.

Wouldn't blame fans over there for being mad one bit if they did it. That's some bullshit.

 

I'd be pissed if 1 of only 19 games a year were taken away from me. There's no reason for a club to piss off local support for a money grab at international fans that may not care in a few years time.

 

I’d expect Kroenke/Arsenal would be one of the first EPL teams to agree to it

 

Sure Glazer will be down, see you at Raymond James for Manc/Gooners

 

Publix fight will be happening

 

Play it game 1 in mid August during the day when it’s 100 degrees and feels like is 115 here in Tampa. That should be a fantastic game to watch.

 

It's not like there's attendance problems for the top teams in the EPL which could be used to justify moving a game.

 

Yeah, and the majority of the games for smaller clubs in the EPL are full, because they may never make it back if they get relegated and they want to see the show.

 

May be reporting old news, but beIN is back on FiOS, not sure about Comcast.

 

West Brom had 7 shots on target and scored 7 goals against QPR. Julio Cesar was technically a QPR player for his seven goals allowed game.

 

Absolutely amazing

 

Hopefully he can eventually start speaking again

 

Imagine literally being in a coma and missing out on the transformational event that is WengerOut

 

This is a good video. You can see how loved he was :(.

 

I find it very hard to believe that Arsenal is the most popular club in the UK, and Dortmund is most popular in Germany.

 

Too much Liverpool

 

What’s the source for this?

I doubt Canada is Real Madrid. I doubt Arsenal is the UK. I doubt PSG is France. Among others
