Minor league baseball teams have some amazing names. Also Japanese baseball teams, i.e. the Nippon Ham Fighters.

yeah it's poo poo but tbf the entire 'it's poo poo' -> protest -> give up cycle has already happened for that, so 'sneaked past' seems a bit disingenuous.

It's really astonishing work to take on UEFA and manage to both lose and make them look like the good guys in the process.

Billionaires getting told to piss off and being made to look like greedy schoolboys is all well and good but I want finger pointing, blame, recriminations and punishment. In short, I want this thread to never end.

the best part will be not just how little sense that joke makes now, but how it'll make even less sense in future, the best kind of joke

quote:

As the sun dipped below the roof-line of Stamford Bridge something strange began to happen. The birds flew backwards through the sky, the cats barked, the trees turned a tangerine hue, and Roman Abramovich became, at a stroke, the protector of the people’s game, enemy of the elites, the oligarch of the masses.

What world is this we have now entered? How far have we travelled through the looking glass? What powerful hallucinogenic drugs have been administered to lead us in the space of three days to a place where the hordes of football supporters on the Fulham Road can proclaim English football’s original – and most dizzyingly transformative oligarch – as their white knight, tender of the grass roots, pharaoh of pyramid and all the rest of it?

Inter are about to announce their departure now. So that leaves just Juve and the 3 Spanish clubs clinging to the Super League now I think.
