World Cup format for 48-team expanded competition
Mr X replied to WessexPest's topic in Football Chat
No matter what FIFA say the only reason why they've done this is for cash. More matches = more money. The world cup is the only way FIFA make any real money which is why they're trying to cash in on it as much as possible. For the same reasons they're also significantly expanding the Club World Cup so that it'll now be a summer tournament for 32 teams (like the current world cup) from 2025. -
Great spot, that is embarrassing for the club. Not much better than Jon Lansdown booting up an old Windows 98 computer and seeing what's on the clipart.

I take it this is the one you mean? O'Neills the new TFG?

It's good to have some retro style designs every so often but the last few years every single shirt has been a 'throwback'. Would be good to see a new kit design for once.

City should bring back another classic font like this one! ?

"Matty James will be a concern for the weekend...."

It's a bit of a jump for Taylor-Clarke to be starting in the Championship given that he was on loan at Yate earlier this season. -
Cardiff City away match thread
Mr X replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Any streams available for this one? -
The land Ashton Gate is on has never been a part of Gloucestershire and was part of Somerset for hundreds of years until the 1830's as mentioned previously.

Let's get the dogs out again for the next kit launch.

Bolton Wanderers stadium to be renamed (again)
Mr X replied to shahanshahan's topic in Football Chat
This is one sponsor that definitely shouldn't sponsor Rovers -
Ian Gay knows sod all about football part 7,432
Mr X replied to Silvio Dante's topic in Football Chat
I enjoy the FBC podcast and listening to the contributors apart from when Ian's talking which I just fast forward through. I've never come across anyone with such a pessimistic, miserable, glass half empty mindset about the club. Would be good to have a few FBC episodes without Ian on it for a change. -
Bournemouth are such a tinpot club. Their ground is smaller than a number of clubs in non-league!

Code would be great thanks if it's not been already taken!

Preston North End away match thread
Mr X replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Can't rule out a playoff push yet, especially if the team keep playing as they are at the moment. -

Let's hope he doesn't do this after the match tomorrow...

We've got Taylor-Clarke and Clark starting with Taylor on the bench as well!

How much are flights up there?

Is Marlee Francois a similar type of player?
-
What type of player is Palmer-Holden?
-
With Antoine off and Conway and Weimann still out injured even with a new player coming in we still look a little short up top. Does anyone who watches the U-21's think any of the forwards would be able to make the step up to the first team?
-
Noticed that Weston are running trials for U-16 to U-19 players at the moment. Could be a good way to get into a semi-pro team for any decent local players. https://www.weston.ac.uk/news/weston-super-mare-afc-trials-now-open

If I was a teenager and offered terms by City or Southampton I'd definitely pick City with our current pathway from the academy into the first team. If you'd asked the same question 10 years ago I would have picked Southampton before the question had even been finished.

I didn't know Glenn Quagmire was a Bristol City fan!
