The Football Thread

[AuntyClockwise]

Probably not something that will be big on this site, but I couldn't find another thread talking about it so thought I'd make one on the off chance there's any others who want to talk footie.

Arsenal fan for my sins here, must have done something wrong in a previous life. Who does everyone else follow?

Ayyyyy, good to know I've got an ally here ha ha.

How you feeling about this season? Squad finally has some depth, if we can keep everyone fit that is, which lets face it is already proving a challenge

Hang on gentlemen, I know politics and religion are not entertained on this forum, I'll have to check about sport.
You know how it is, it all starts out nice, but eventually, someone will annoy somebody else and then commences the downward spiral.

Another team I've got a big soft spot for, used to always play Leyton Orient on Championship Manager back in the day, and the Club for a Fiver documentary is pound for pound one of the best sporting documentaries of all time!

Do you go regularly? Would have loved to have seen them make it up last year!

How do you feel about the Zinchenko acquisition? Good player overall but is prone to the odd mad moment

Thanks for the heads up Colin, will keep that all in mind

Get there when I can, I was a season ticket holder when I lived in Leyton and then Walthamstow
Would have been nice to have gone up, but really not ready yet as this season is showing.

That club for a fiver is grim watching for me, i was there that night.
Got even worse with the mad Italian who nearly finished us off.
Thankfully rescued and got back in the league then our manager Justin Edinburgh tragically passed away.
Onwards and upwards. that good old syaing there's always next season

I'll no doubt watch Arsenal in the Champions League, lost touch with Premier league football.
Its light years away from our level and no real clue who the players are or who they play for

I remember the pitch protest during that reign of the Italian guy, fair play to the fans for taking action! I must go, I've always wanted to go to an O's game sometime but have never quite got round to it. I was in the neck of the woods last year getting a tattoo and went past the ground and made a mental note to come back for a game.

Yeah Premier League has gone mad, spent £3billion on transfers this summer, that surely can't be good for the wider game.

Well football is a kind of religion…..but on the other hand….
