All I'm say8ng is that before other nations played football, england wales Scotland, ireland were playing "internationals" against each other. Fifa was formed but the home nations didn't join until a compromise was reached allowing them to join as separate members. It is a political...

Because the home nations were playing internationals before fifa was formed. Plus the rules committee ifab is made up 50% by the home nations who aren't likely to vote themselves out of existence.

I only saw the last 20 minutes. Turned it on just after the dorgu goal. Was a fantastic ending. Couldn't believe how much unpunished time wasting Denmark engaged in. Though 6 minutes was quite short. And the ref just kept going once he knew Denmark needed more time. Scotland wasn't supposed to...

Ppopulation is only 1 factor. Soccernomics is a good book in this regard. I know some of the comments here are tongue in cheek, but this does seem to be poorly understood by many. No point in having a large population if a country has no history playing the game, like the United States or...

Have had the opposite problem before where I was confident of getting the job only to find out later I had no chance. Would you rather be in my shoes or yours?

Chicharron en salsa y refritos (Fried Pork skin in spicy tomato sauce and refried beans). Have to be careful not to have too much of a good thing. I miss a good crumble. You won't find anyone making them out here in southern california...custard neither. I could probably drink a pint of...

This seems directionally the same as Fight Club, even if not to the same degree.

Just run across this. I've sworn off news and politics for a month and trawling through the ale house is all I have. I dont know what to say.

So happy I found this thread.

...and this is amazing

I love condiments.

The injuries in my mind are a result of playing for 3 and a half years with no break. I think it was something like he played an Olympics one summer and a copa america another and then a world cup in a third...something like that. These players need the summer off.

Fully expect them to be the first beneficiaries of a goal by the opponent being reversed due to it being determined it was a foul throw, at which point the rule will be changed next year that var doesn't review throw ins.

I enjoyed this...made me feel superior.
