DEAD! Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Good grief. How does UEFA botch the draw to begin with? they had days (and years of practice) to prepare for it. Funny thing is Chelsea still ended up with Lille. Quote I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/60059510 Manchester United Women beats Arsenal in the League Cup. It's their first ever win over Arsenal Ladies, since they weren't professional until 2018. They'll play Chelsea in the semi-finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Matt Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Umm, Josh Sargent gets left off of the USMNT WC qualifying roster then goes ahead and scores his first two Premier League goals for Norwich City with the first being a PUKAS worthy goal (a damned scorpion kick flick goal). What in the world. His brace also put Norwich out of the regulation zone. Incredible from Sargent. 1 Quote Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're counting on him getting injured again.

MJWalker45 Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/60605957 Clyde women's football team members have discussed quitting the club after a men's player that was convicted of rape was loaned back to the club by Raith Rovers, which lost sponsorship and had it's women's team change their name to no longer be associated with them as a result of the initial transfer. In addition, the city council has banned the player from entering the ground and cancelled the lease at the end of the year, with the threat that they could cancel it sooner if he plays for Clyde, in that stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Chelsea's billionaire Russian owner slapped with sanctions, banning him from selling his $3 billion soccer club and placing severe restrictions on the team (msn.com) With the sanctions slapped on Abromavich, the most interesting bits are: The club cannot sell new tickets for matches. Fans with existing tickets and season tickets can still attend games. Chelsea's club shop must be closed and no merchandise sold. Chelsea cannot sign new players should the sanctions still be in place during the next transfer window in July. Contracts for existing players cannot be extended. The club can only pay up to £20,000 ($26,000) per game for travel costs. Chelsea is still in this season's Europe-wide Champions League, and any overseas game's travel budget would like exceed that figure. The last two would basically force Chelsea out of the Champions League, but I'd expect them to apply to CAS to get that suspended. Not allowing a sale now also keeps him in limbo and could force Chelsea to rely on their youth teams again for at least another transfer if they can't get that overturned. https://news.sky.com/story/chelsea-football-club-owner-roman-abramovich-sanctioned-by-uk-government-amid-crackdown-on-russian-oligarchs-12562148 And Three has asked the team to cover over the shirt and stadium branding.

So Chelsea did not cover the logo on the jerseys, or anywhere else in the stadium. So I guess that means Three is just getting free advertising until Chelsea can get replacement shirts. They are claiming slapping a patch over them like West Ham did several years ago will make the shirts too heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted March 19, 2022 Author Share Posted March 19, 2022 Mainz 05 vs Arminian Bielefeld - Hawkeye gave a goal that wasn't. VAR says it's not. Glad to see it works properly.
