18 months wouldn't have been to harsh. Soccer is played by dirty animals who if not for the fact they play sport(if you can call it that) would be banged up in prison or on the dole playing computer games or watching porn.

i hadn't heard about the incident but only six games for eye gouging what the hell

i used to watch a lot of football but since I started playing/watching rugby I can't go back unless it's sunderland
it's a 90 minute game where the players would rather only play for 60 and roll around or scream at each other for the other 30
 
this is gonna sound a tad bit racist but the players in this mexico venezuela game makes the english and russian fans look peaceful
 
Sixth consecutive final loss by the Argentina football team. It is a failure or is good to make the finals although not win?
 
Celtic have just lost in a Champions League qualifier to Lincoln Red Imps a bunch of part timers who are the champions of Gibraltar. Brilliant for Rogers first match - will he resign or be sacked?

The real madness is that this is the 2016/17 season. It's been a very long 48 hours since 2015/16 finished.

Set up a fantasy league, see which of us egg chasers know about chasing other balls


(ohh, matron)
 
I'll do one later, doubt I'll keep it up when I'm in France but I'll start with good and winning intentions!!
 
really happy about the steps the EPL is taking to stop the 45 seconds of players surrounding the referee after every 50/50 call
 
Can't believe the way tens of millions of pounds have been chucked around like confetti. The whole thing's utterly obscene and half of me hopes that it all bursts in spectacular style. Shame as I do actually quite like wendyball and enjoy my occasional visits to Loftus Road.
 
It's mental the money that has been spent. The only way it will blow up is if Man U, Man City and Chelsea don't even reach Europa League.
 
""I've been in that situation, when I have seen an incident and been told to say I haven't seen it. To be fair to the FA… it's not them. It comes from the PGMOL [Professional Game Match Officials Limited]. It doesn't stop there. We've been told to give a certain amount of corners, or throw ins, fouls, bookings etc. The Premier League is rife with spot fixing and bias towards certain clubs from the FA. Every referee in the Premier League could be infront of a court one day soon." - Mark Halsey

Is this old news or will some people be going to jail??

Maybe although the second bit must be BS how can a ref give a certain amount of corners or Throw ins?

Can easily see the top half being true though.

Turns out the second part of the quote is a fake he didn't say that.

RIP Carlos Alberto. Will never forget that 4th Brazil goal you scored in the WC final 1970.
