Game has officially gone. Utter woke nonsense.
James Alabi and Josh Harrop taking part.
Will probably still watch it |  |

And I was mildly excited about watching it. I’ve adopted a team (Alabi’s N5 FC) purely because I looked at the list of players to see if any of our ex players were in it - and chose to then ‘support’ them on that very basis. Strange for it to be starting the day of an England game though… | | | |

It’s a 6 a side tournament. Starts today. Club managers include: John Terry, Shearer Micah Richards and Lineker (joint managers), Lehman Pires and Ljungberg (joint managers) plus a lot of ‘Celeb’ types - rappers and influencers etc.
Players are a sprinkling of lesser known ex pros - Josh Harrop and James Aliba are the only ex ITFC connections. It’s on Sky sports Mix at 17.15. First game 17.25 and goes on till about 23.00. There are 12 teams in the league I think…!? [Post edited 24 Mar 16:51]

Sounds rubbish. |  |

It sounded ok until I read this:
And an additional twist will see new rules added to the final three minutes of each half which include: A 3v3 format, long-range goals counting as double, goalkeepers not being allowed to use their hands and more.
Why mess with something that works well? 6 a side is entertaining. Goalkeepers not being allowed to use their hands is just needless BS. |  |

6 mins is far too long to go without a rule change / gimmick. [Post edited 24 Mar 17:18]

The name Josh Harrop still sends shivers down my spine. What an absolute dog sh1t time of following Town that was. Those 3-0 defeats to Wimbledon and Northampton was the bottom in hindsight, I think Harrop got sent off in one of those.
Kienan Bennetts. Nsiala. Holy. Troy Parrot. Feck me. He's done well for himself since but I don't think I've ever seen a player so obviously uninterested and unmotivated than Troy Parrot in his Ipswich spell.
Anyhoo, this Ballers League sounds equally as sh1te as that Ipswich team. |  | | |

James Alabi thinks he's playing 11 a side and holding up the ball waiting for runners. | |

....it's a decent standard.
Josh Harrop just scored, not that that's much of an endorsement. | |

He also promptly blazed one high and wide, akin to his Swindon away effort. Heady days. | | | |

it seems a bit like the idiotic Premier Golf League, which seems designed simply to put more $ in the hands of Tiger Woods & Rory McIlroy. |  |
