I dread to think what your motley collection of old, sweaty City shirts would be worth. ££££

Probably quite a bit. I was reading earlier on WOL about a young lady from Aberdare who had earned enough from selling vintage football shirts to find her university fees. And she’s just opened a shop in one of the Cardiff arcades. Can’t find the WOL link and I won’t pay to read their articles.

Any news about shabby treatment of European or Asian teams being subjected to such measures?
If it's good for one it should be good for all.

USA face backlash as Uruguay World Cup team treated like ‘straight-up suspects’ on side of road

Uruguay’s arrival at the 2026 World Cup came with an unwelcome detour — sniffer dogs working through the squad’s luggage on the side of the road before a ball had even been kicked. It is not the first time visitors to this tournament have run into America’s hard-line border setup.

So, our noisy neighbours get off to a deserved winning start..... Cue the media hype and frenzy about their chances.

Personally I'd say there was a whole heap they will need to work on if they are to achieve their long held hopes.
A better side than an ageing Croatian team would have had a field day with their defending and wouldn't have gifted them 2 goals.

Sod the media hype, a decent start but as you say work to do. As ever I watch in hope not expectation. :emoticon-0138-think
