Re: Catchy Names

French club Le Puy Foot 43 is quite a good name, although chanting may be problematic. My local Highland League club, Deveronvale is quite nice as is Clachnacuddin. Albion Rovers must have the dullest name in Scottish football. Bill Shankly played for Glenbuck Cherrypickers in Ayrshire and they prod...

Re: Blue Cards

I’d say yes, easily. My count tonight will confirm 😀 Update please. It was 89% accidental fouls and just 14% deliberate. Case closed. Blimey, the ref must have been crap. Genuinely accidental collisions shouldn't really be given as a foul. There has to be carelessness, recklessness or excessive for...

Re: Blue Cards

Of course they are. They may not deliberately go in to a tackle with the intention of kicking someone on the shin, but by the careless and clumsy nature of the tackle, they know they ain't winning the ball You come out with such a load of crap!

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2

Anybody watch the ITV documentary on Monday about the Ukraine war? Reporter Sean Langan following Russian troops about, getting their perspective on the war. Interesting stuff certainly, but I still find the relationship between ordinary Ukrainians and Russians confusing

I'm not trying to justify the destruction in Gaza. My point was in relation to the initial post which stated that Netanyahu was in many ways very similar to Hitler.

Re: Israel

Netanyahu shows a callous disregard for civilians in his quest to eliminate Hamas. Horrific, but hardly unique among wartime leaders.

But the right wing media doesn't make you left wing, presumably. Which kinda makes me think that you were probably right wing in the first place

Re: Blue Cards

Must be an average of 15 to 25 fouls given most games. Some even more. Are most of them just genuine accidents? Don't think so, although I accept that they are not all necessarily malicious

Re: Blue Cards

Virtually all fouls in the professional game are quite deliberate. Surely that suggests a level of cynicism in all fouls. Is a kick on the ankle less deserving of punishment than a little tug of a shirt? Yellow cards are already given for so called tactical fouls and if it is hoped that players will...

Re: Blue Cards

I don't understand what problem they're trying to solve, but this would certainly cause all sorts of new problems for referees and players alike. Ridiculous idea. Not sure but presumably it's to solve the problems of dissent and cynical play. Just a guess. Can you give the definitions for foul play...

Re: Most trouble you’ve seen at a football match

PS. On our way home, we met in with another Celtic fan from our village. I asked if he had witnessed the fighting. Yes, he replied "I was in the thick of it. It was magic" Takes all sorts I suppose
