@mariner4life I first remember seeing Haaland at the 2019 U20 WC, where he won the golden boot with 9 goals (all scored against Honduras). He didn't score against NZ, who won 2-0. Take that Erling!
-
Haaland has been incredibly well managed. Could probably have gone to a big club from Molde, but chose Salzburg. Could then have gone to a massive club but chose Dortmund. Contrast that with countryman Ødegaard who went to Real Madrid at 15.
Makes me feel old though. I remember when his dad was assaulted by Roy Keane. That was nasty.

struggling to think of a worse act on a sports field. Especially from someone of that profile. Especially when he fully admitted it was intentional.
New thread challenge accepted.

@KiwiPie i at least can confirm i'm interested, all aspects, Wimbledon were there not long ago...chance we'll be there again (although we did get our second win of 2022 on the weekend) plus all the aspects of the fan ownership stuff
currently the fact they cant buy their way out of that league easily is one of the only things stopping more people wanting to sell out....but then the fact they cant get out also mean we'll do anything to stop going back there

Turn your ground back into the venue for the car boot sale and you might make some money.

@Crucial it was a great market! we probably still could in the areas around the ground
I “rented “ old bikes from there for a while. I say rented as every now and then I would have to repurchase it after it got flogged from outside Tescos. £20 every couple of months was a reasonable price

I wonder if it would be better for all teams if it was 4 up, 4 down between League 2 and the National League. One disastrous season and you can fall out of L2 and it is a really hard division to get out of given the number of ex-league clubs fighting each other every season.
-
@KiwiPie Would that help though as you would still have just as many clubs coming down so effectively it would still be as much of a shit fight.
Looking at the teams that are currently in the National League there are a lot who have played in the Football League but most briefly.
I guess you all want to emulate Luton or Rotherham. At least there is automatic promotion. There were some decent non-league teams prior to 1986 who never got the chance to go up.

@Rancid-Schnitzel so good
look, i'm just happy someone on a sports show actually had a strong opinion
but holy shit that was an awful take. The price alone meant 15 goals would have been an amazing season
the fact he's got 14 after 8...
that guy should be shown that clip every single week.

@Bovidae Pretty good - Swiss education system is very good hence his English is superb as well.
Born in the same village as my wife. He’s a keeper that one

i thought he was a defender?

@Higgins We did have our best 2 players on the bench but that is an embarrassing result! Comes to something when even non league teams don't take the cup seriously.
Big win for Liverpool this morning which benefits both the North London clubs.
