Or was that someone else? iirc Hakan Sukur got damnatio memoriae cast upon him, like pundits on Turkish TV aren't even allowed to say his name when discussing football despite him being Turkey's all-time leading goalscorer.

Yeah, I read this article a while ago and forgot about it until I mixed him up with Turan: https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/2022/11/16/uber-coups-and-coffee-shops-the-fall-from-grace-of-turkeys-world-cup-hero/

His Twitter feed is kind of sad, because it's the most decorated Turkish football player of all time but now sometimes you see him talking about driving an Uber around Northern California to make money. I think he's involved in some other business there, though.

Unless that dude has a 15-inch dong I think he might have embellished that. But still, I'd really like to see what happened before to make a ref think that was okay to do.

It’s amazing that players are so used to diving that they just instinctually do it even when it’s the ref hitting them.

https://twitter.com/GFFN/status/1643921502515912704?s=20 Ouest-France report this morning that Angers left-back Ilyes Chetti has been handed a four-month suspended prison sentence after being found guilty of sexual assault, having appeared in court today. Through a procedure by which he would have plead guilty in advance of his appearance in court, Chetti admitted inappropriately touching a woman he did not know, in an incident which took place in a nightclub in the city during the World Cup break back in December of last year. When reports of the legal proceedings first surfaced last month, then-Angers manager Abdel Bouhazama stunned his players with a team talk that appeared to downplay the events – “It’s nothing nasty. We all touched girls before”. He later resigned from Ligue 1’s bottom-placed outfit, who are winless since September and sit on just 10 points. Former club president Saïd Chabane, who remains the team’s owner, has legal issues of his own to contend with, having been in police custody from Tuesday to last night over suspicions of money laundering.

It's a fix, nowhere are chainsaws specifically listed as banned items. It's not like he had anything dangerous like a bottle cap.

Yeah it's short for Lebanese. A lot of families migrated to Sydney from Lebanon during the 80s and there's a pretty big community here. I dunno if I'd call it an outright slur, but unless you're from a Lebanese family, talking about Lebs or Lebbos will definitely raise some eyebrows

Does this belong here? The BBC recently did a deep dive on a massive investment scam operation that used sponsorships of Sevilla FC and Leeds United to look legitimate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6JXZ3GzSCQ https://twitter.com/uglygame/status/1647856567591612417 I suspect the clubs aren't going to be relinquishing the sponsorship money anytime soon, but it's pretty sad stuff.
