The General Football Thread

Sorry to spoil it but Australia and NZ can't be drawn in the same group.

 

They aren't in the same confederation, thought that means they can be?

 

My bad I assumed they were!

 

Used to be, Australia ditched the OFC because of the lack of proper qualification spot (and possibly for more competition).

 

Just another example of football no longer being for the fans.
What a bunch of jobsworth *****

Ridiculous.

 

"The group received emails from lawyers on behalf of Uefa after posts had been flagged for breaching Uefa rules on match footage."

I wonder what the kid versions of these lawyers would say to their current selves. You used to be cool, man...

 

If Brighton or Brentford score Liverpool could finish the day in 11th. Free fall atm.

EDIT: Brighton have and leap SEVEN places.

 

The demise of Liverpool this season continues to be amusing. Nice to see that they have been thumped at home by Forest.

 

Rusty Martin waiting in the wings for them, fear not…

 

That would be the icing in the cake !

I am surprised that Slot had been so poor this season.

 

This was in Leyton Orient's matchday programme on Saturday.

 

LOL. Never mind they're defending champions, when the slump is framed in this way, Liverpool fans must be thinking what-the-actual.... this IS ****ing insane!!!

"It would have been unimaginable two months ago. Back then, Liverpool had just beat Southampton 2-1 in the Carabao Cup, with Alexander Isak scoring his first goal for the club, to make it seven straight wins in all competitions to start the season." Liverpool Echo.
