SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2021/22

One of my earliest football memories was watching this goal live on Channel 4. Still amazing

 

I saw that live too!

 

From what I've read and from what im seeing, it seems that Eto'o was a more devastating an out and out striker than Weah, but Weah could create for himself and others better. That about accurate?

 

Watching a 90s Man U game.

Giggs was very fast.

I read that early on, he was supposed to be the second coming of Best.

 

Pro Tip : Giggs was black.

 

Giggs was very very good, and a horrible shit of a man.

 

He's a wife beater, correct?

 

He's on charges, but prior to that he was seeing his brothers wife.

 

Yeah... pretty shitty.

 

Watching a documentary that might interest Hut and Feebles

Its ABOUT "Bible John" .

Rakes of colourized retro footage of ancient Glasgow..... Sewers bubbling up in the courtyards, kids playing in it.

 

Just looking at how that Daily Record paper operated in the 1960s.... "ink and drink". 6 men "Pat Rolling" every night pumping people for info so they could build actual stories. Cops and Journos were household names.

Compare that to today. I know fucking streams with better sources.

 

Watford. Stick a quid in the meter lads

 

That was a v cool series, more social history than true crime docu...Glasgow in the sixties and seventies, those areas they showed footage of, building with no windows and open sewers, serious poverty

 

Yes, I noticed that, it had a heavy dose of feminism and sjw stuff thrown in, not least because they had to as we never did catch the geezer so we needed to flesh out the issues to make a show of it.

There have been of course no shortage of female murders since Bible John and this time the shitty architecture and horrid hygiene couldnt take the blame.

Predators just do not stop being predators, no matter what the era.

Glasgow always had this reputation for the razor gangs and rampant poverty. It took decades to get anything done about it. A very sectarian place.

 

Leave aside the social commentary, I'm always fascinated by the police procedural aspect in a world without advances in forensic science, databases, interagency collaboration etc....you get a real appreciation of how much good luck would play a role in catching an opportunistic killer in that setting

 

This is for you.....

These poor bastards literally drowned in a sea of false leads, hoaxes, paperwork, missed chances and outdated filing systems that were simply obsolete and couldn't handle it.

It literally killed one of them.

They came so so close so early on.....they had him. They were tracing tyre treads and abandoned it. They had his paypacket fiver and didn't follow it up.

When they finally caught him, it was a total total accident. A routine bit of unrelated police work.

As they say on Tik Tik, watch to the end...in the dark, in bed.

 

Watched Romania vs Colombia from the 94 WC.

Hagi was a bad motherfucker. Scored one of the sickest long range goals I've seen.

From watching Rangers game, his son doesn't have a fraction of his talent.

 

Watch Cameroon vs Colombia, 1990

 

The kits of the teams at the 1990 World Cup was the last time just about every team at a tournament had a great strip.

 

Villa score on stroke of half time.

Buendia celebrated in front if thevGladys Street end.

Him and a team mate then get blasted with cups and coins from the crowd.

Commentator :"players have an obligation not to celebrate in an inflammatory fashion"

Excuse me?

They've been inflaming shit with their rainbow laces and their kneeling and their general fucking shit these past years.

 

Last night i was trying to find the fucking replay of the Leicester-Spurs game from Wednesday, and they didn't have it. Dammit.

 

TRY twitter and YouTube you might get good clips.

 

Double knockout at Brentford. Two of their players just iced each other.




And now this....

 

In before Slice.

Fuck off West Ham, just fuck off..
.

 

YAAAAAASSSSSSSSS YOU RRRRRRRRRR's!!

Bloody hell, 16 minutes injury time and another late winner. Wish we'd do things the easy way once in a while .

Hull did us another massive favour by beating Bournemouth. Now 2 points off automatic promotion with a game in hand. Believe!

 

OK over to Liverpool..... City dropped some points.

 

Rooting for Liverpool to cut the lead to 6.

 

I'm getting this for next Christmas
