 | Forum Reply | Club World Cup…. at 15:32 17 Jun 2025
I'm hoping this is just because it's in America, where they introduce the stars individually as part of the build up. It works in that way because you have the whole ramp up to kick off with the anthem, marches, cheerleaders, pyro, etc - but in our football it's just wánky. This whole CWC has been a joke tbh, a shamelessly financially driven tournament played out in stadiums that are empty outside the corporate sections. I heard Bayern made £1.5m just for playing in the game they won 10-0 - which isn't far off the prize money for winning the FA Cup. I'd rather they scrap this and just have a proper domestic Super League so all these clubs can disappear into their own golden money trough and leave the rest of us alone to play football. |

1000% this. Unbelievable he has as many caps as he does - carried by a great Arsenal defence and George Graham. There's loads though, Rickie Lambert (and half the strikers from the 2000's onwards) wouldn't have been allowed near an England team if they played in the 90s. [Post edited 12 Jun 20:03]

When it maximises the revenue return Clive - have you not been listening? |

How does your maximising revenue theory track with the home kit not being revealed until August? |

The strategy of purposely filtering communication and hiding decisions is disrespectful at best and shouldn't be tolerated. Fúck this ego child and his apathy to supporters. |

What a load of absolute fckin nonsense that statement is. The bullshit communication strategy persists and continues to feel more and more counter productive to us building something as a collective. Completely in the dark regarding the manager, coaching, backroom staff and player situations - and for what purpose? Where's the competitive advantage in any of this? |

It was more that I decided to keep track of the films I watched through Letterboxd, and make a conscious effort to watch more movies generally instead of just putting on some binge tv background stuff because I can't sit and concentrate on something! It's not new films specifically, it includes rewatches, but 100 seems a realistic target... |

I haven't seen any of the MI films since number 2 but keen to watch the last one in the cinema so watched Fallout, what a brilliant action film, all around great stuff. Going to try and watch Dead Reckoning tonight but these 3hr run times are killer... +1 for Sinners, absolutely loved it. That one scene - you'll know which one - was incredible. I'm trying to get to 100 films this year, currently on 45 but flagging... |

They might still be using the old recruitment method of seeing him actually play football, the dinosaurs. Get with the times, lads. Check the data set and run us the fee |

There's definitely a big increase in younger fans following EFL and non-league teams now, and it's brilliant. Of course social media is dominated by the usual United and Arsenal shite, but actual match going is much more for places like us. Modern football at the higher level is the worst it's ever been - you can't get a ticket on the day, Season Ticket lists are years long, and if you can get a seat it's £50 plus. There's VAR, shite atmospheres, methodical/boring play styles, no proper tackles/physicality and every game is on TV or streams anyway. Non-league / EFL is gonna be about £10-£20, you can always get a seat/stand, you can be with all your mates, the football is chaos and if it's local non-league you can mix with the players and feel like a proper part of the club / community. Why anybody on earth would choose to go to PL games at this point is beyond me, but then that suits the owners who would rather charge £300 a pop to some American tourist that will go via the club shop. The sooner City and the like fck off into a Super League, the better it'll be for everyone else. |

Professional real person with your own opinions? |

There's a difference between regular posters having contrasting opinions and whatever this cynical bullshit is. I think you probably know that though. |

The irony of coming on here being one eyed and then accusing anyone that recognises you as a weird stooge as being partisan... |

Nah, fck that, fck this kind of blatant spin bullshit and fck whoever is pathetic enough to do it. We've seen this stuff before and it's not on. |

What the fck is he still doing here btw?? His job was finance, something he was brought on for initially and personally I thought did a good and sensible job of, why is he still here doing something different or being involved in the football side of things at all? |

People in the club starting to talk and protecting their own positions now we're at the end of the season and decisions are to be made is not new, or unique to QPR. The Les, Lee, Ramsey fallout was only a few years ago and shít got leaked all over. I agree this article doesn't say much we don't already know based on the WLS post match interview from Monday, but I think these whispers have been building for a while and people aren't happy - that usually ends with change somewhere... |
