The Soccer Thread (Version 13) — Winter World Cup Edition

That's some Helm's Deep shit.

 

Hodor nods in approval

 

THEY'RE WEST HAM TILL THEY DIE! THEY'RE WEST HAM TILL THEY DIE! THEY KNOW THEY ARE, THEY'RE SURE THEY ARE!

Blow some bubbles, boys!

 

Forest safe and City clinch the league.

 

Brighton are in Europe for the first time ever. Apparently they can thank my Red Devils, who snagged top 4 plus an FA Cup final spot.

 

Do people think that Kane is done at Spurs? I can’t see him wanting to miss a year of UCL. They would be better off selling him and rebooting.

 

I won't lose any sleep either way, but I hope Everton stay up.

 

I was a little gutted when Villa took the drop. They were among the lot that were charter members of the EPL and stayed up until they didn't.

Then I remembered those Mankers at Oldham Athletic who were so full of themselves in 1992 when they fancied themselves as flat-footed equivalents of MUFC and MCFC. Last I saw of them, they were 12th in the National League.

 

Another stadium tragedy.

At least 12 dead in stampede at El Salvador stadium

 

I don’t know how La Liga allows Vinicius Jr (and I assume other black players) to be subjected to racist heckling. Clear the stands for a match or two.

 

You can count the number of Brits I know on one hand, but I swear to god that one of my British friends is a lifelong Oldham fan. Another (a good friend of his) actually got the nickname that he still uses in most of his life for wearing a Dagenham & Redbridge shirt to school a lot.

 

Thanks for the tip. The Dag & Red website is complete dogshit. Explains a lot.
