Football as art. Well, as close to art as comics can be [Guardian]
Swear to God–if I wasn’t stuck with Aberdeen, I’d be quite interested in how Inverness CT fared every week [Sport Post]
Nice as that was, I think Stu’s game winner this week was nicer [The Offside Rules]
Aragorn is a better fan than I am [ONTD_FB]
Read his lips [The Spoiler]
I’ve never seen anyone try to strip the goalkeeper before [The Offside]
Kids today. Awesome tomorrow [TB11]
MLS lags behind Aussie League in average salary. Like, by a lot (probably not a lot to you NYC/London folks) [MFUSA]
Finally:
Why throw one elbow when you can throw two at once? [Dirty Tackle]
Awesome strip there, but that is a straight ref fail, a ref is never ever supposed to take his eyes off the ball when it is in play even if the goalie is holding it
Oh hai, Jacob.
Ha-HA! It’d be an awful shame had ANYONE on the fucking pitch thought, Hey now, maybe I should close this bloke down before he reaches the edge of the area.
@Shane–Agreed. Still one hell of a shot. And an amazing run away from home for such a small club (the above game does not count in that, obvs)
@Pups–The whole idea of bringing in Brown is a head scratcher to me. He is doing good things at Motherwell. But he’s 70. The nice thing about the SPL is he only has to finish second-last to achieve his stated goal, so there’s that.
