This website is doing a retrospective "could have been" talents. I only read the Lentili one, who I barely remember if I'm honest.

The stupid star wars and pop culture poo poo is mercifullly kept to a minimum here, it's not that bad of an article considering the source. Nice read.

This is worth taking the time to read. It looks at how ultras operate by examining a couple of Juve ultra groups that do ticket touting, their ties to the mafia, and how even the club is complicit in their operations.

Not sure where to post this but Vice World of Sports have episodes dedicated to big football rivalries such as Boca v River and Red Star v Partizan Belgrade.
Haven't seen them yet but generally their sports stuff has been alright

Yeah these are good, I saw the Algiers one a few weeks ago and it was interesting. The story of football there in general is cool.
