I've heard Gary Lineker advocate this before, I think it's a good idea.
There's too much leeway given to the defending team on free kicks (having to wait for whistle etc) it's supposed to be giving an advantage to the "wronged" team so as long as ball is in the right place why wait?
And letting a player pass to themselves would make that even better. |

Allow physios on the pitch while game is in play (I believe they do this in rugby?). Only stop the game if the injury is serious enough for the player not to carry on......and once this is done the player is not allowed back on the field.
See how many players lie on the floor milking imaginary ailments then! |

Listened to the pod for years and has been an invaluable link to one of the few things I miss from home.
Wish you all the best in your coming treatment Finney, you'll be having some gluten free beer to celebrate kicking it's arse in no time 🙏 |

I think take the prem teams out and instead of a European place, give incentive to the EFL teams by guaranteeing the winner the 4th place in the play offs of their respective division.
Tough luck on the team that finish 6th if the winners are outside the play offs but there's already an element of that if any team that finishes below 3rd win and it would definitely create more interest in the competition!! |

Erm, I've been out of the UK a long time but as far as I'm aware it's not compulsory to wear condoms?! |

Don't disagree, I am no expert on this subject and of course sympathise with anyone affected by this, though I think the balls used now coupled with the way the game is played in general must make a bit of a difference compared to the players of the past who were using lead weights as balls and experiencing far more "up and under" type football?
I should stress I wasn't necessarily saying it's a terrible idea, just was a bit surprised and also interested to hear people's thoughts |

So within 3 years all football up to U12 level will see a "deliberate header" punished with a free kick.... starting next season with the youngest age 😲
How long till that becomes a rule in football in general? 🤔 |

This is probably going to get me slaughtered but I think Chair may come into this category.
I like him and won't deny he's one of our better players now (arguably our best) but in the kingdom of the blind the one eyed man is king.
I think if he goes to the prem he'll get found out big time......he's not even close to Eze who he seems to get compared to by some when talking about his value.
Off to put my tin hat on!! 🫣 |

Thread | Old programmes......free to a good home!
at 10:24 24 Dec 2023
Greetings all
I am currently over here for Xmas and was sorting through old possessions and found a box full of old Rangers programmes from the mid 70s and through the 80s.
I posted on a Facebook group and asked if anyone wanted them for free as they're too much to transport and it breaks my heart to dump them.
Somebody suggested the club and I've contacted them. But thought I'd stick it here too.
As I say, not looking for any money, just a good home!
Let me know if you're interested
Cheers and Merry Christmas to everyone at the greatest club in the world ❤️😊 |

It was 50/50 but the other fella got there first and even though Colback didn't mean it he caught him late and a bit high. Red all day long nowadays unfortunately 😔 |

Dot disagree with you but it's worth remembering Les is under 5'11 and he was superb at winning the ball in the air.
I'm sure it's something that he'll improve at, I think we have a LOT more to come from this kid 🙂 |

In December 2004 I was on holiday in Thailand and was booked into a hotel on Phi Phi until 27th.
They said we had to pay 1500 baht for a "compulsory" gala dinner at the hotel that we didn't fancy so we decided to check out early on Christmas morning instead. Then when we got to Phuket the fella in front of me got the last room in a hotel on the beach front so I got a place up the hill.
The next day the tsunami hit, wiping out the hotel on Phi Phi and turning the beach front on Phuket into something akin to a war zone.
In the aftermath of that I took stock of life and 6 months later gave up my career in London and moved to Thailand......in 2 weeks time I'll have lived here 18 years! |
