SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2025-2026

Yeah I remember that being kept quiet alright

 

Yeah nobody wants this. I actually think Desmond might get told to not do this by outside parties because it's a fresnel lens held over the Israeli flea.

 

I live about 40 mins from MetLife Stadium on a light traffic day. All I know is I'm staying off all major Northbound roadways the day of the final because we're all anticipating traffic that day to fucking unprecedented in Jersey. Traffic is bad on Sundays when the Giants host the Chiefs/Cowboys/Eagles. I can only imagine what its gonna be for the final.

 

Irelands greatest (IMHO) victory in football took place at the Giants Stadium in 1994.

 

Houghton!!

 

Both times. A very regretful tournament. Was shite. Diana Ross missing that penalty..... Back then I at least believed in the USA. Now? Fuck them.

Games on at midnight and 2 am. Foke that.

 

What time were the games on in 94? I distinctly remember watching loads (including that houghton goal) so must've been way earlier

 

This USMNT squad are the most of the most unlikeable, entitled little shits ever assembled. Not endearing at all, and no one over here cares about em.

 

Dermot Desmonds orientation to Celtic always felt like indifference filtered through ego maniacal control freakery.

A guy who just wants his wee rental flat ticking over passively but just...cant... help himself interfering on the precise shade of the curtains needing replaced.

But if he appoints Robbie Keane? You have to conclude it's active hostility now. We saw a glimpse of that when he sent his daft wee boy out at the AGM to hurl abuse at the support (and in his defamatory written attack on Rodgers through club comms). But this would mean pissing off swathes of the support is an active guiding principle in operating the club now. As wild as that sounds.

Because why tf else would you go this route. No other explanation

And it feels ominous, in terms of that likelihood, that the reports of this didn't surface until the Monday after Fridays season ticket renewal deadline. Your money is banked plebs...now suck this.

 

8pm, 11pm and 0200h if I recall correctly.

 

Actually there was no 0200h game.

I think it was 4pm our time, 9pm our time, and midnight our time.

That would be 11am local, 5pm local, 7pm local.

It was japan Korea that had truly awful times.

Fucking last game of the day was 12 midday z

 

Cheers. Another score for the 90s over this shit decade

 

I cant speak for the 94 WC, which I only watched here n there as a casual, but I can tell you that in the 90s the Super Bowl used to come on much earlier in the day, making it more convenient. Fuck late games.

 

Looks like they signed on O'Neill for another year at Celtic. The cynic might argue that this allows them to say they responded to the fans, while also selecting the cheapest option.

 

Smart move. Keane is - by the loose standards of the day - "toxic"

 

Must confess I'm excited by Iraola arrival

 

I was travelling on business to Nebraska that week. Not even a mention in the Lincoln Star Journal.

 

A guy celtic turned down 3 years ago (along with Maresca). Decline & fall...

 

Well Chelsea Big Balls fired Maresca to replace him with LinkedIn Liam so don't be too upset.

 

Local in one of our four time zones, Chief.

 

Yes. When I was a kid it was 12:15 pm kickoff here (3:15 ET.) Bastards shifted it three hours later somewhere along the way.

 

I'm guessing Leicester City wouldn't mind Maresca back right about now.

 

This year's times are a joke but there ARE SOME games at a viewable time.

I should be able to catch the 11pm GMT stuff and there are some decent games like Scotland vs Brazil and Scotland vs Morocco.

 

So many games missed because they're just on too fucking late or I'm at work.

Thank God for Scotlands group.

 

Can Celtic bring Big Ange back?

Or would it be too embarrassing hiring a guy who failed miserably in the Prem twice?

 

Oh do just fuck off

 

Eriksen collapses again. Always thought it was a really dumb decision to let him play again after the cardiac arrest he suffered previously. Thankfully he seems to be ok but he needs to call it a day.

 

He squeezed another 5 years out of it.

 

He did, sure, but he was very lucky and this could very easily have gone the other way.

 

USA looks on course to beat out Qatar & South Africa as shittiest host nation ever
