Thread | Watching the Champions' League final
at 08:39 1 Jun 2024
It used to be free on ITV, then it was free on BT Sport's YouTube channel, now I read we are expected to sign up to an account with Discovery+ to watch it without charge. I won't bother. How poor of UEFA to allow this huge match to be so hard to get for people not paying TNT £30.99. These days I just ignore European club football. |

Thread | Southampton wearing black at Wembley
at 14:43 26 May 2024
Why are they not in their traditional kit? You'd think they would be red and white at Wembley. It seems to be a trait of modern football that teams do not wear their proper colours. I know Arsenal wore yellow against us in 78, but read that was because they had had previous success in that colour. |

Thread | 'New Look' Women's Euro 2025 Qualifiers
at 22:45 4 Apr 2024
I see there are vastly different qualification rules in different groups of four. If England (group A3) finish bottom, we will still qualify for the play-offs. If Scotland or Wales win their groups (B2 and B4) they would only get a play-off spot. I suspect it is about protecting the bigger nations and having more closely matched teams play each other on TV. It is linked to the Nations' League somehow and becomes more complicated that I can be bothered to work out. I wish football could be kept simple!

Thread | England playing in dark grey shirts at home
at 20:39 26 Mar 2024
Why are we not wearing white?! With Belgium playing in light blue, the teams are not recognisable. This is supposed to be a dementia awareness match, surely better to play in the familiar colours?! |

Thread | Wimbledon Women look set to beat Norwich to the title
at 23:15 24 Mar 2024
I am just taking a look how Norwich Women are doing. They are second in one of the leagues below us, the FA Women's Division One South East Division. They played at Carrow Road in front of 5,941 fans today, drawing 2-2 with QPR. League leaders Wimbledon won 6-0 at Cambridge City, putting them 10 points clear at the top. Norwich have two games in hand, but it looks almost certain Wimbledon will win the title and get promoted to our league. |

Does no one play in their proper colours any more?! England's opponents tonight look more like Italy than Brazil. |
