Just about to watch the Inter Miami v Portland Timbers game live on tv , I didn’t think there was anything more annoying than Sky pundits , but , my god these American guys take the biscuit , decided to watch the game with the sound off……

It feels like the investment is ever nearer!!
USA “Soccer “

To be honest shouting at the commentators is very often more enjoyable than the games... PKs, steal..its a frickin tackle you mop head, cleats, uniform, out of bounds.... and off to take my BP tablet
I remember watching an Australian A league game several years ago where the commentator said 'The ball has just gone over the goal line for a corner'.
Did anybody use to watch the annoyingly titled Soccer AM on Sky Sports on Saturday mornings in days of yore? Their most talented presenter, Fenners, used to do a feature called Boston Goals in which he really nailed exactly that kind of ignorant-sounding commentary, variously including cleats, uniform, PK, steal and more. There are quite a few examples on YouTube.
The USA should be nowhere near football.
I wish the WC would come home.
I wish the WC would come home.
England will win their first game and then all the papers will be stating " its coming home" then we will be knocked out in the round of 16, playing rubbish slow grinding pass across the back 4 football.......
Then we can all get back to watching argyle and enjoying football.

I agree - nothing beat it every Saturday - so my TV stayed off.
Well that would be very correct. The goal-line runs from corner flag to corner flag and not just between the goalposts. The term "by-line" is an invention by our media but no such term is used in Law One, The Field of Play.

During the World Cup bid Chamberlain bigged up Argyle and Home Park every week and the show focused on us quite a lot.
