    Want to complete your Sportswashing World Cup sticker album?

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-62724334

    It'll cost you the thick end of £900 they're saying :emoticon-0164-cash::emoticon-0103-cool:
    It'd almost be cheaper to fly out there and photograph all the players...

    It often happens, new owners = new gaffer, regardless how well the old one was doing.
    Three trophies in 20 months is Tuchel's record at Chelsea. Including the Champion's League.
    Plus two Wembley domestic Cup Final appearances.
    Do their new owners seriously think Graham Potter can improve on that?

    Perhaps Potter could do well over time. Three or four seasons maybe.
    But he won't get time.
    One season without silverware and he'll be sacked.
    Be lucky to last a whole season in fact. Three back-to-back defeats will be his lot I should think.

    You'd have to wonder why he'd consider it - he has Brighton motoring nicely now. A quick look at Tuchel's record at Chelsea and his exit says a lot about job security at Stamford Bridge.

    They're a rich version of Watford as far as sacking managers goes.

    How dare UEFA ban our own National Anthem from being played in any English or Scottish football ground?
    Who the f**K do they think they are?

    I hope the Anthem is sung loud and proud by all fans at those matches.
    God save the King!

    UEFA have banned the National Anthem from the Champion's League games being played AT HOME by Chelsea, Man City and Rangers.

    I have heard Rangers are planning to defy the European twats and sing 'God save the King' after a minute's silence.
    Good for them <applause>

    How dare a foreign football authority think it can stop English or Scottish fans singing our own National Anthem in our own home stadiums.
    Those grounds are not foreign soil for the duration of the matches. UEFA has no sovereignty over them.
    Those tin pot jobsworths have gone too far this time.

    PS:

    To avoid confusion I would have posted a link to the story on the BBC News website.
    But the BBC has not covered this story yet.
    I think that is poor.

    Completely unnecessary. It would take what? A minute? Still, UEFA are always trying to keep up with FIFA for daft ideas.

    Jock Stein must be spinning in his grave at what Celtic fans have become, with their anti-monarchy banner. At this of all times. Stein would not have stood for this- he once waded into the crowd when they started singing sectarian songs.

    Tackling sectarianism in Scottish football is pretty low on the SNP Government's agenda I should think.
