beatty

It wasn't just that; he was well dodgy throughout. Like, he was consistently punching everything that came his way back towards opponents. And at one point he let a low cross that he could have easily walked over to and stopped go straight past him to an opponent. (Un)fortunately the Scotland player was offside. Nobody is that shit.

Mark Bright @Mark__Bright · 2h At Craven Cottage for the Nigeria v Scotland game, guy sitting next to me just ruined it, said it ends up 2-2. #worldcupwarmup Mark Bright @Mark__Bright · 35s Well I don't like the phrase I told you so, but I told you so, 2-2 Scotland v Nigeria. My man in the know knows.

Another wasted chance

Malcolm Glazer DEAD

Ameobi spraying a shot from 8 yards out 8 yards wide is now so incredibly satisfying.

Watching Shola lumber into an offside position and not caring is a wonderful experience.

Great to see Woodman collecting his winners medal from Platini.

We won on pens. Woodman pulled off a great save in the shootout. Armstrong didn't get on.

Adam Armstrong on the bench for England tonight in the U17s European Championship final versus the Dutch. Probably would have started but for the ankle injury that forced him off in the semi. Woodman starts in goal. Obviously we'll just pass it to Pat Roberts and he'll take care of the rest. 6pm, Eurosport if anyone fancies it.

Is it just Newcastle shirts you don't want people wearing or are all other club shirts banned? What about international or foreign shirts? I see this has already been questioned. Carry on.

A bit of info on a Spanish lad we may or may not be interested in. Seems to be a perfect Pardew player: His versatility means he'll quickly adapt to the demands of being a defensive winger or target man

Redmond stood out for the U21s today. As I type, he bags his hat trick. 3-1 to Eng-ger-land versus the Welsh. Low standard game.

Anyone watching the England U17s? Patrick Roberts just scored a Messi-esc goal, again. Lad is gonna be the next big thing.

Up until this Arsenal segment there wasn't really much to watch expect a bunch of idiots killing time at pitch side. Back at the BBC next year?

We do need someone else capable of playing on the right wing.

Falcao named in the Columbia squad.

Yeah, so fair play to Dechamps for having a pair.

Nasri, the prick, not included.

So this is my first thread on this place and wary of the conventions and standards of the board, I'm more than happy for this not to exist and its content be collapsed into the Generic small time football blather thread. So delete should there be an uproar. Anyway, there's this really good section on F365 that highlights and comments on lazy, stupid and basically hilariousness journalism from across the footballing world. They update it quite often, so you could easily just bookmark it and forget this thread exists, but I thought I could shamelessly steal this thread from another forum I visit to allow us to keep track of the cream of their publications. http://www.football365.com/mediawatch/

Quality Stat: In the past 5 seasons, Spurs have finished above every team in the Premier League except Arsenal.[

Danny Simpson is still pony.

I was worried about Wigan going with no striker, but Perch took care of it. Movement and the finish, quality.

World Cup organisers need to do the right thing and maintain the ban.

He isn't good enough on the deck for Bayern.
