    Youtube didn't have a lot for a long time. Torrents on the other hand were special. I still have a membership at a private tracker but I haven't logged in a long time now.

    The VHS thing just brought back a memory.

    When the old poster, Jaws was coming through Bakersfield back in 2007, I treated he and his gf/fiancee to lunch at a sports bar downtown & I brought him two VHS boxing tapes. Joe Louis greatest fights and another one that I don't remember.

    What do you think of the new format in both tournaments, Jimmy? I quite like it, it feels more interesting to me. In the normal format you'd already be looking at most the groups after four games thinking 'well they're through already, they're out already, yawn.' This way it feels like more teams have something to play for, somehow...even if its just 'not finishing dead last!' I also prefer teams not parachuting into separate tournaments, that never felt right.

    I'm really liking it. It does feel like s league. You've got some teams in the top half who you wouldn't have expected to be there early on. Like you said, there's a chance for many teams to still qualify for the next phase. It's not looking so doom and gloom. The games I've watched have been exciting with goals.

    Citeh four defeats in a row. Loving this. Pep loves to have a talk with the opposition whenever he's really pissed off. He can be a sarcastic twat. Could be the beginning of the end for him.

    Pep will be long gone before Haaland decides where his next venture is. But I don't see Haaland leaving Citeh anytime soon.

    The offside rule is a joke. The slightest part of your body can be a fraction ahead of the last defender, and they get their lines drawn and determine the attacker to be offside.

    Every year: spfl put rangers at home & celtic away. Rangers do some preposterous full stadium tifo with soldiers abseiling off the roof and fucking canons on the pitch. Celtic fans boo the minutes silence and display some protest banner. Everybody argues about it for a week. This year Glasgow city Council let a 'remembrance' orange walk go past a prominent catholic church coinciding with sunday mass just to salt the dish.

    Its as much a scottish yearly tradition as hogmany at this stage

    I actually dont think id seen that, its hilarious. Im pretty sure irs from the scottish version of talksport called 'superscoreboard' which is an absolute safari of furiously deranged unemployed people. They screen the callers & eliminate anybody who passed their standard grades. It has the greatest theme music ever, its so good

    Whoever recorded their conversation has purposely shared it and this could well ruin his career. But why on Earth though would he say what he did knowing someone is recording it and it could be leaked.

    They strike me as scumbags- in another part of the recording one of them even says 'this could really ruin your career....we're good lads we couldnt ruin someones career could we'. And you can fucking tell- yup, in a heartbeat.

    Probably blackmailed him the next day and now he's stopped paying

    Everything is a payday now. There was a time when guys were staunch tribalists. Man United fans would have enjoyed having a guy like Coote "on board" . They'd have regarded him as " good people". But now it's all about a payday.
