Anyone started the latest handmaids tale? Not quite ready for the depression.

Couldn’t believe that was the scoreline. I went to bed just before Italy scored their first. The first half was enough to induce the jet lag.

Saving it for the flight over

Now this would be fantastic. Last weekend in London too

Is this the glamour tie?

In all honesty, it’s worse than I expected but not by much. It’s a completely different ball game here. The countries two pro clubs aren’t allowed to play in the comp because they play in the a league. Ironically they can’t play in the Asian cup either because they’re NZ based The domestic league is pish and they are all amateurs. Hard to have seen any other outcome imo. One that they should never have had to be exposed to.

There is a ripple of interest here due to Auckland City participating, and football in general, having a bit more of a media interest. Kiwi teams, despite being the only amateur sides to take part, don’t often embarrass themselves on this stage, but I doubt the new format will suit them. regardless, I hope it fails. Fuck FIFA.

In fairness, he’d never get a shot at LB with Cacace on the scene. He’d be one id love us to sign but I think he’ll be staying in Italy. Other LB being de vries who had a pretty solid season with them

Completely ridiculous given bigger sides have multi club ownership. If they really saw it as a problem, tackle multi club ownership first.

Badge looks the right way up to Reekie, Scotfree and Me

I’m sure he’d rather play in Europe

Kusini Yengi according to folk on the socials. Was well thought of in the A league, helped Pompey get promoted from league 1 but had an injury hit season and not been re-signed. Interesting one and not one I’d have picked, but that’s also not my job. Obviously seeing something that will work with how Jimmy wants to play, and obviously free.

The far right always tear themselves apart. This is the world “righting” itself

Agreed, definitely a player in there

Just simply, Dutch. Nothing deeper than that

Great news, although I think he might do well there. Whether the support let him is another

Very pleased with the Knoester news. Our good teams should always have a cloggy element I’d be happy with Morris signing on again, unless we get money for him. Regardless, he’s a good option off the bench and you can’t argue with those stats.

Great interview with Spiers on here https://www.patreon.com/posts/in-conversation-130096793?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwKmZVtleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHlQcQXtZKsjZGPHD9YrRIZAkt9Ysge1Fs3zXNFuNcLjfJM2ZnmGQ8MpShbAD_aem_ar243xIqGxqHfCFnfpCCcg

I’d completely forgotten about Molloy. Think of the two, I’d keep him over Rubi. Not sure it felt like Rubi learned, but maybe that’s unfair and he’d have done better with someone more experienced alongside him, rather than Molloy. Do we loan both out and see if we need one of them in the future? Molloy seemed to have more in his locker already than Rubi.

Aye, I’d agree with that. I’m just glad it wasn’t to them. Will be unsettling for him that the manager has left (pilgrims don’t sound salty at all ) but I really wish him well. Local loon leaving as a cup winner. Can’t ask for much more .

If we can get him on loan again, I'd absolutely take him. Was a good poacher and I can't remember if it was you or Rico who said it, but there's a player there that can be trained by JT. That I have no doubt of.

I'm sure Hearts fans have been busily booking their tickets for the (checks notes) costa del clyde

Beat me to it I mean, being a kiwi is always an upgrade on an Aussie

Milanovic a Johnny warren medal winner, which is best award an Aussie footballer can get

Sounds like Armstrong actually lands on the moon in this one?
