    [Football] World Cup - Day Six

    How a ref doesn't see that first time is utterly baffling.

    [Football] World Cup - Day Six

    What's the story with Ali J? Dropped or injured?

    [Football] World Cup - Day Six

    I know he made a mistake, but I'm not sure that he should feel suicidal.

    [Albion] Dunk on the new gaffer.

    I don't think that the scenario you have constructed whereby he doesn't get a statue because he is not a striker, and that there is some sort of debate that there wouldn't be if he was a striker, is nonsense. He'll get a statue.

    [Football] World Cup - Day Six

    Interesting little feature about the lifelong dedication of Qatari fans of Liverpool and Man City just now. These are the fans that the big six (seven) want - the fans that will render local fans and community connections irrelevant. There is an inexhaustible supply of them worldwide. Let...

    [Music] The Live Music thread

    I thought Working Men's Club were really, really good. Shame they ended so early (though it gave us the opportunity of an extra pint in the East Street Tap), but they were really powerful, and it feels like they could end up as something very special. I hadn't realised quite how young they are...

    [Football] World Cup - Day Five

    That disgusts me. He clearly dived. Commercial decision. He'll be playing in the Middle East after this World Cup.

    [Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2022/23 Edition

    Yes. This is a non-league thread for non-league people. There's nothing for the likes of Cheltenham here.

    [Albion] Moises Caicedo - New contract signed until summer 2027 with 1 year extra option.

    Biss was in the last year of his contract, and it was clear he wasn't going to sign another. We could end up getting £35m for him, which is pretty good in those circumstances. Similar to what you got for Mane.

    [Albion] Moises Caicedo - New contract signed until summer 2027 with 1 year extra option.

    He's only been in the team for a limited amount of time! However, during that time he has been consistently brilliant. He is the heart of the team, winning the ball when it doesn't seem possible, driving forward at pace, picking passes others don't see and scoring goals too. Obviously I don't...

    [Travel] Christmas Markets

    I didn't go, but walked through the Christmas Market yesterday. It's not very big, but it's a vast improvement of last year. This year it has moved to just next to St Peter's Church. It's actually quite a nice set up, with a couple of bars, and the big wheel is there. I may go for a pin there...

    [Football] Infantino of FIFA accuses West of hypocracy.doesn't really get irony.

    Yes, I hadn't really thought of that. I also work in a Primary School, and usually for a World Cup we have topic learning based around the teams taking part, with each class 'adopting' two or three countries to produce projects about. Each class has had a World Cup Wallchart up, and the kids...

    [Music] Albums of the year

    For me, the obvious ones off the top of my head that are missing include Loyle Carner, Fred Again, Franc Moody, Bob Vylan, The Comet is Coming, Jamie T, Frankie Stew and Harvey Gunn, Working Men's Club, Khruangbin and Leon Bridges, Gabriels...and Arcade Fire, though I guess they've been cancelled.
