Is that club just based around some reddit forum or something? Young boys @ wankdorf is... How did they manage that by coincidence :'D
The last article's title is simply brilliant.I miss that Wild West internet era, pre-smartphone, when even 'serious' publications joined in.
Couple more unrelated to YB.
The ones we've signed as well it's easier to rotate. I've told the team I trust the members of the squad.
He's captain, what more does he want ?
Bloke can't even wear the captain's armband correctly and he expects more playing time?
Nah, this can't possibly be true, me and everyone here believes that they intentionally named their team and stadium because they wanted to be associated with paedophilia.Why is it called Young Boys?
Founded in 1898, Young Boys is one of the oldest clubs in Switzerland, and with 12 Swiss Super League championships to its name (to go along with a semifinal appearance in the 1958-59 European Cup), one of the most successful.
The clubs name has its origins in its founders and their first-ever match. In 1897, brothers Max and Oscar Schwab along with Hermann Bauer and Franz Kehrli — all students at the University of Bern — decided to host a football match by combining with Basel Old Boys Association (commonly known as BSC Old Boys) to play against FC Bern.
After, the four decided to found Fussballclub Young Boys to differentiate themselves from Old Boys. It wasn’t long before the club grew in stature and began playing at the beautifully named Wankdorf Stadium in Bern. That stadium was demolished in 2001 and replaced by the Stade de Suisse, which seats 32,000 spectators.
Similarily: Wankdorf is simply a street is Switzerland, the name has no meaning in German. Like the Austrian town "fecking"
Or ‘United finish off Young Boys’?Can't wait for the post match headline "United beat off Young Boys"
Do you think they make money hand over fist at the Wankdorf?These Wankdorf jokes are definitely not the only reason I enjoy playing Young Boys....
Utter relief at happy endingOr ‘United finish off Young Boys’?
He should have said “no, hoping for an early exit” and moved onto the next question.Want to go further this year?
"Of course, as you say we have had some very good, memorable nights at the club and they are the biggest nights. The aim is to go all the way but we know it's going to be difficult. It always is. But we've added some quality, experience and youth into the squad and hopefully we are better prepared for what's to come."
That question right there is elite journalism!Want to go further this year?

Solskjær Wankdorf at Press Conference
You mean an unfortunate hand injury don’t you ?Their defender Lustenberger is out with tendon injury for this one
How could I have missed that!You mean an unfortunate hand injury don’t you ?
Apparently he Wankdorfed too much.Their defender Lustenberger is out with tendon injury for this one
he’s got it on upside down, it’s obviously a sign of distressBloke can't even wear the captain's armband correctly and he expects more playing time?

FFS That last one!I miss that Wild West internet era, pre-smartphone, when even 'serious' publications joined in.

De Beeg is the perfect suit to get Wankdorf. Stadium will be filled imo.
Both coaches at half time: "We have it in our own hands, let's finish this"I can see the excuse when we lose:
"Artificial pitch in Wankdorf not wet enough. Groundsman didn't spray it adequately."
Ole: "The pitch wasn't slippery enough."
Our CL group fate starts and ends at the hands of Young Boys.Both coaches at half time: "We have it in our own hands, let's finish this"
I'm glad Ole sees this. Assists don't mean a huge amount.OGS: on Pogba's assists
"Paul has come back in good shape. He's worked really hard over the summer. He's come back lean and fit. What does an assist consist of? A square pass to Bruno and he puts it in the top corner? Or a great ball for Mason? Paul has always been a great passer and he's not got assists from his best passes this season. I don't pay attention to assists, it's a social media thing. But Paul has played well for sure. I would give Anthony Martial the assist for Jesse's, he leaves the ball like Yorke and Cole, there's so much more than stats. And David [de Gea] deserves one too."
Looks like the Swiss are completely neutral about their creativity as well.Why is it called Young Boys?
