Terrible news, lads - apparently FIFA may be scrapping the FIFA Peace Prize. Seems a shame to let one small mistake bring the end to such a storied and prestigious award. Although maybe they just can't imagine another candidate so meritorious and think that it has now run its course. Honestly, hard to know the truth of things.
Oof that £215 is going to hurt!
Hopefully the manager sticks to his guns and doesn’t select him when his ‘ban’ ends. Even better if the whiny fuck never gets to retire gracefully in front of his adoring fans.
Imagine how good old dead legs could have been with the benefit of tricky's coaching. With the ballon d'or no doubt the injustice of picking him ahead of Ollie Watkins, Ivan Toney and Liam Delap will persist.
Congratulations to brand England (currently German owned) on being embraced and further monetised by the French.
You've got to love modern football money. Brand exploitation in the most lucrative market was always a great idea. Meanwhile, the stupid English think they've won something by funding the free caviar for foreign corp. It's like the trains all over again.
It's so smooth it would be worthy of admiration, were it not for being on the end of the consequences.
Oxford Street's pedestrianisation that started yesterday meant the displaced buses fucked the traffic up so much noone could get to the Palladium on time.
But unfortunately they have little direct traction in the most lucrative rights territory.
Kane as a brand for England has been promoted remorselessly. 24/7 constant attendance stats padding through massively increased fixtures, largely against Moldova. For a player who, in the era of shearer, sherringham, wright, fowler, collymore, cole, owen, rooney, would have barely got a game. Yet to hear them talk he's England's greatest ever player. Just look at those numbers! (Don't use your eyes, just stick on a stupid bet for us, and pay way over the odds for your ticket and attendant logistics, while we feed you crap)
Now no doubt, despite the evidence of your eyes and your pockets, you are in the process of being pursuaded that his dead legs can trundle through another full international cycle, while Germany takes another free roll for world cup glory on your exploited dime.
You have lost the argument, accept it gracefully. You're basically officially wrong now, and coming across as extremely tinfoil hat or unable to admit it. Or you are trolling.
Not sure you are right - Kane 20m has followers on instagram. Mbappe 137m; Lamal 60m. You surely don't think England is "the most lucrative rights territory"?
