That’s an interesting stand

The trajectory of the seating is interesting in the Yank Stadiums

I like the Dallas Stadium, roof and air con. Think the closest we've got to any of them is Spurs, they really do make us look the poor man with our stadiums. But yeah their seating is interesting, although one of them I think installed scaffolding and I think it's that stadium.

Giroud really is awful. Walcott is dull but Giroud barely speaks the language. Maybe a Belgian or Egyptian could offer something. They should dig out more forgettable 90s footballers like Hasan Kachloul. Surely Mido is about.
 
66,000 in that stadium according to the BBC. There aren’t that many Belgians in the world so either there’s a lot of Egyptians in the USA, which is possible, or else the people of Seattle are up for a bit of soccerball
 
Newcastle drawing with Uruguay was enjoyable, but it's a shame we couldn't hold on for the win.
 
Iran head coach Amir Ghalenoei says they are the "most oppressed" team at the World Cup after having last-minute travel restrictions imposed on them.

Speaking after his side's 2-2 draw with New Zealand on Monday night, Ghalenoei said they had expected to stay in Los Angeles overnight and have a recovery session the following day but were told after the final whistle to immediately return to their training base in Mexico.

Iran were originally due to be based in Tucson, Arizona, for the duration of the World Cup but moved their camp to Tijuana, Mexico in late May after encountering logistical and visa issues.

"After the game they said to us, 'you have to leave immediately'," Ghalenoei said.

"We've been asked to get on a plane and return to our camp in Tijuana and we are really troubled by that.

"They are forcing us to go back early. They are making the situation more and more difficult, more hurdles, but we're not going to let that stop us from doing our best."
 
Set the alarm for the second half of Austria v Jordan. 5am is a tad too keen.

I’m in France for work on Monday when they’ve got Iraq albeit an 11pm KO with an early start the next day but might wander into Gay Paris assuming it’ll be a bit lively.

Somebody has to be the most oppressed team in fairness.
