    The THFC Women's Team Thread

    Last time I went to a Women's FA Cup final it was £10 for adult tickets and kids went free. Only just over 40,000 spectators and a sea of young girls that seemed to spend most of the match either eating or buying more food. Even then there weren't enough female toilets at Wembley for everyone...

    Football League Championship, League One and League Two 2023/24

    I got a spare ticket for the recent game against Coventry and he was the one decent Saints player in the first half. Coventry double teamed him in the second half. Scored a great goal and should have been MOTM ahead of Che Adams. Adams, incidentally, is a free agent at the end of the season and...

    That would end any luck with injuries then.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Liverpool thread

    A 32 year old Salah with one year left on his current contract isn't going to get them the same payout as it would have last summer.

    Let's All Laugh At... let's all laugh at United

    You haven't experienced the true joy of football until you've lined up with all the other parents and players to do a pre match dog shit and broken glass check on a British public park pitch.

    Let's All Laugh At... let's all laugh at United

    I headed an underinflated Mitre ball back upfield when playing centre back at school in the late seventies. PE teacher criticised me for not directing the header but it didn't really register due to the concussion.

    I'm looking forward to all the made up shit as we approach the deadline and news sources become desperate foe eyeballs and clicks. :)

    Football Boots

    After trying many boots, mostly bought second hand from ebay, my daughter now has two pairs of Nike Tiempos. She mostly plays on the 4g at AFC Stoneham in the FG pair but has a SG pair for any games on grass.

    AFC Asian Cup 2024

    3-3 draw went through in second. If they'd won the group they would have played Japan, looks like they get Saudi Arabia or Thailand instead.

    AFCON 2024

    Cape Verde population about half a million, Egypt over 100 million. Punching above their weight.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

    At the time they took over the stadium the rent was reported at £2.5 Million and now as about £4 Million. I believe there are all sorts of conditions based on number of games etc, they even get a rent cut if they're relegated. :ROFLMAO:

    Joey barton

    I suspect the issue is that with women and people of colour being historically under represented in football related media there is an understandable rush to recruit a more diverse group of presenters, commentators and pundits. With male footballers having been very visible in the media during...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    My hatred goes back somewhat further than that due to the shit from plastic Liverpool fans at my NW London school in our relegation year. I still have a special hatred for Ronnie Whelan for that final though.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

    So the London Legacy Development Corporation (essentially London Council Tax payers) got stitched up on the deal but retain naming rights. In their shoes I'd go for a series of short term naming rights deals maybe starting off with Germoloids.
