Excellent footie movie. The club that George built. On discovery. Proper grass roots football. 
 

features Worthing fc. Team in the 6 th tier. Farnborough beat them a few weeks ago away. Currently top of league. Seeing as farnborough can’t win it hope Worthing do.

Cool movie on Prime called The underdog, the Andy swallow story.

delves into the ICF, the old West Ham firm. Good understanding of 1970,s England and the hardships that prevailed at the time which gave rise to the firms and punk etc etc. 

when I lived in London in the 80’s for a short while one of my roommates was a West Ham fan and we would go down to Upton Park sometimes on a Saturday. Walked down green street etc, never did the fight thang being a coward and liking my teeth but did go to the pubs and places in the area. Different place and time then. 
 

anyway, a good fliek for a bit of nostalgia. And history. Another reason these huge concrete monstrosities will never have the romance of the old grounds.

How many months since the last EPL game is it now? This international break is taking forever. 

At least Spurs have not lost a game in the meantime.... 

Thank goodness for small mercies!

A Liverpool supporter back for more banter, must be a masochist... 

Does feel like ages, though.  Many years after giving up on watching local SA footie live, feels a bit weird that I've enjoyed seeing some PSL and Nedbank Cup matches and the second tier matches of Highbury FC while working at them.  Even Highbury's midweek 2pm kickoffs have several thousand spectators.

I'm still struck by the lack of height in players here, even in the top tier.  I'm not especially tall at 6'3" but none of the players have matched my height thus far, with most being a lot shorter.  I'm still waiting to see the first headed goal attempt after a few second tier games.

Bring on the EPL.

It seems Atletico Madrid think the match will be won by the team with the most yellow cards.... while Barca look as if they are playing to score goals... Hhhhhmmmm....

A very strange Copa Del Rey Semi Final if you ask me.

Didn’t watch the game but some Spanish games turn into a farce. Theatrics
