Aye. I think the average age of this forum means a lot of us grew up on Saint & Greavsie. Both of them gone within six months of each other. RIP.

That's the first time Villa have had anywhere near a first XI on the pitch this season and well, it's looking promising!

The BT Sport goals show lads are doing overtime. Atleti got super lucky with VAR too. They should be losing.

And I think Seb Haller has scored almost as many goals in an hour for Ajax as he did in a couple of seasons for West Ham.

Turns out Grealish is really good at cutting in from the left and skinning the defender. Lovely goal.

It’s like the golden goal rule in football. Sounds awesome in theory but doesn’t work in practice.

Fuck em. They took being smug bastards up to 11 when they were winning so maybe a few seasons of only finishing 3rd and getting to the quarter finals of the big cup will teach them to be humble before their inevitable rise back to winning the league every other year.

Does that say more about how talented his family were or how important privilege and opportunity are?

Yeah, he was financially responsible for more people than he should have been too. Big family, but lots of hangers on with it afaik. I certainly don't think his personal life enabled him to be as laser focussed on football as someone who grew up in middle class in Europe would have been able to.

Steve Bruce did score 19 goals from central defence for Man Utd one season. I’m sure Ronaldo would approve of that.

I saw a couple of the knockouts on /r/boxing. It turns out Ortiz has never seen Silva fight before and got done by the counter punch Silva made a career out of and it was just sad seeing the ghost of Holyfield get annihilated.

You do know it was in America, right?

Went to a museum today because I’m all rock and roll. Kinda liked this shot, though I feel I could so a bit more with the edit.

I love the fact that Holyfield is fighting Belfort because Oscar wanted more cocaine.

Had to check, but yes. Never been done at the US Open in the men’s game, but all other majors have been won by players without dropping a set. The list of players who have managed it is basically a who’s who of Women’s tennis though. (link)
