Football (Soccer) Discussion
Many here on WATMM enjoy "the beautiful game", so much so that a subforum for match discussions makes sense. Keep it on topic, otherwise there's a booking in your future.

Is anyone surprised? lol I hope to fuck Russia and Qatar get the world cup taken away from them. Qatar especially - the shit that has gone on to build those stadiums is obscene. 17 officials and execs accused: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/fifa-corruption-arrests-who-are-the-17-officials-and-executives-accused-of-misconduct-10279046.html 9 arrested and charged: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/fifa-corruption-arrests-two-separate-investigations-sparks-biggest-crisis-in-history-of-the-sport-10279745.html VISA threatens to withdraw sponsorship: http://mainichi.jp/english/english/newsselect/news/20150528p2g00m0sp079000c.html …

May as well begin one of these if anyone is interested. Predictions? Palace to drop with the departure of Pulis? Chelsea to reign with the return of Drogba? For me it's either Chelsea or City's year, mainly I'm hoping the lack of Suarez means Liverpool get a cruel taste of reality and fall down the table again.

So my beloved Bluebirds, Cardiff City, have decided to change their old home kit back to blue after a few years of playing in red. What a fuckin farce. Baring in mind CCFC's ONLY premier league season last year was almost a template on how not to survive in that division, ie: switch managers mid-season, bring in some1 inexperienced, pay waaaay over the odds for players not up to it and with a chairman who seemd to treat every game as some bizarre PR stunt........TAN OUT! With Hull going thru all that Tigers shit, the Glazer's debts equalling about 50£million a year @ Man-Utd, Rangers (LOL) going tits up & Pompey......how can i even do justice to those poor c*nts..…

I am following the draw live for unknowable reasons. Will City be drawn into another comedically difficult group with Real and Juve? Are Barca shit now? Is football shit now? Will this competition ever produce another genuine surprise?

Yeah yeah, the CL isn't finished yet. But fuck it, Madrid is gonna win it anyways ;) Any thoughts on the upcoming fiasco in Brazil? Will the Brazilian ladyboys distract the other teams long enough for Brazil to nip through? Will America make it out of the group stages? (no) Will Spain make it four major tourneys in a row? Some kind of fun (not always funny, but at least they're not taking themselves seriously either) analysis here: http://grantland.com/world-cup-2014-men-in-blazers/ What say you all?

So i'm watching the Palace vs Spurs game and wanted to comment on how good Palace defence is right now, very impressive, specially for a Hollaway team, which are known for their attacking style/defending naivete ----- This season is going to be soooooooo good Chealsea champions, Spurs, City and United champions league spot, Arsenal to finish 7th (mark my words) Liverpool 5th, Cardiff relegated (not sure who the other two are going to be, maybe Newcastle and Hull)

Moyes sacked

So it's finally happened... justified? Ridiculous? I don't quite know what to think. On the one hand they sort of had to, given how bad Man Utd have been this year. On the other, I don't think he's genuinely that bad of a manager, but he was just totally out of his depth in this job. Transfer activity and media relations were utterly bizarre. He doesn't seem to have had player support. If I was a United fan I'd probably be pleased that he's gone. When Ferguson left I put money on Giggs succeeding. Wonder if I should place that bet again?

Liverpools new confirmed new Warrior kit. It's actually not as bad as i expected, but it's not pretty either. I think It's a shame it's not adidas anymore. Fits the club so much more. Gunners new shirt. I quite dig it. Arsenal has had so many shit shirts the last couple of years. Finally a good one. United's new shirt (holy fucking lol). Literally the worst kit I've ever seen. Nike either make incredible nice looking or ugly kits, no in-between.

Favorite Clubs 1 2 3
by Guest Ominous- 58 replies

I thought it'd be nice to get to know each other's favorite teams. My favorite team from my native Mexico is Club Necaxa, founded by English electric company workers in the early 1900's. It had an amazing run during the mid 90's, winning everything and culminating with a 3rd place in 2000's Fifa World Club Championship. Nevertheless, it's never been a very popular team, and was transferred to a different city, then spent a couple of seasons in the lower division. It has now risen to the top division again. What color does your blood run?

The new season has begun thank god! One of the best Community shield games, City were absolutely dominant and should have won the game 5-2 , Chealsea look lost without Drogba (although I thought Torres was allright). Bring on next week.

Football Manager 2013

So I've had everyone of these new incarnations of Champ Manager since 2007. I regularly sink weeks (accumulatively actual months) of my life into these games. In 2012, I've won the Premier League with Peterborough twice, Champions League twice and won the World Cup with England... It's been probably one of my best ever games. So it's time for 2013. You can get the demo if you pre-order, and I'm torn. I've had this game for so long that I can't remember life without it, but the notion takes me that... how much more productive could I be personally if I just didn't buy it this year? Has anyone else ever managed to curb their FM addiction and seen remarkable pro…
