@FootballCliches The pronunciation of "socceroos" 15 minutes into tonight's BBC news at 10 is astounding. A penny for Jane Hills' thoughts.

@FootballCliches @D_C_W @JamesTMaw Why does no one ever talk about Bolivia and Mexico struggling to deal with playing at sea level. Inundated with so much oxygen their lungs don't know what to do with it.

I fucking love to gamble. The risk of losing my money makes the football game feel better. #ad

@jessesingal the world's richest man use the world's biggest megaphone to whip up violence and hatred in the streets that has real consequences for people.

One of the great quotes of the season: Flynn Downes, December 2025 😬

It is 24 years at the end of May since Nigel Martyn last played in goal for England.

He is 60 this year and this week could be playing for his country once more - at cricket.

The wicketkeeper has been picked as part of the Lions squad to face Scotland in the north east.

He tells @Paul_Newman66 he is as motivated as ever.

@FootballCliches @CDEccleshare @D_C_W Aware this is not very audio friendly, but couldn't help instinctively thinking 'that wall is a yard or two too close' when I saw this on Saturday.

@FootballCliches @D_C_W @NickMiller79 Was passing this street in Berlin over the weekend and it occurred to me whether we have lost the "triple Salchow" to describe a dive from the vocabulary of the game? Has it been replaced, or has the discourse around diving been neutered by VAR?
