I kinda feel like we're throwing stones in a glass house when every time our German striker in our London club scores, we sing a rip off of This Time for Africa
Do they not say "spurs" instead of "saints?"
The American system may not be terrible from a sporting perspective, but the politics is awful. Top-flight teams can be run poorly for years with basically no consequences, and if your team is uncompetitive then the fans just have to deal with that until your team fixes itself. In a pyramid system, your team at least drops to a tier where it will be competitive again.
- I'm afraid of this creating complicated offsides calls brought about by a defender standing still with legs spread and then simply lifting the rear foot to trap attackers. It's a funny image but probably valid for set pieces.
- Refs should have the power to consider the context of the game when enforcing or not enforcing the rules. I agree that there are areas of the rulebook that ought to be more objective, and I agree that the refs are too often failing to be fair in their decision making, but a completely objective rulebook with no grey areas would mean players' professionalism would have to be so much higher than is reasonable to expect, especially of younger players. In other words the ref should be able to verbally warn a player who is being a dumbass, and then card them for a similar offense if they don't stop.
Ok, I think I misinterpreted yout comment to mean VPNs are not necessary. Thanks for the clarification.
Would you elaborate on this? Encrypting your traffic and not accessing sites from your actual IP address sounds pretty vital to privacy for me.
I think it's been apparent for a while that Chelsea is devoid of principles. When they lose it will just be more egg on their face. If they win (ha) it will show they didn't need their full strength anyway, and the competition may be beneath them.
What, that they didn't register key players?
I think the adjustment to the new format will make for a few deep dark horse runs from underdog teams.
