Player sent off after appearing to urinate by pitch​


A footballer was sent off for unsportsmanlike conduct after appearing to urinate by the side of the pitch during a match in Peru.

Atletico Awajun striker Sebastian Munoz was caught on video seemingly relieving himself while waiting to take a corner as the opposition goalkeeper received treatment.

Despite the striker's back being turned to the camera and away from the pitch, facing an area without spectators, players from Cantorcillo FC alerted the referee, who gave Munoz a red card.

can’t even get your dick out on the pitch these days.

Bolton's Adeboyejo injured after 'hefty sneeze'​


Bolton Wanderers striker Victor Adeboyejo missed their EFL Trophy victory at Barrow on Tuesday having injured himself after a "hefty sneeze".

The 26-year-old suffered a back injury on Monday which was set off by the sneeze, manager Ian Evatt said.

Bolton won the fixture 3-2 to get their EFL Trophy campaign off to the perfect start despite Adeboyejo's absence.

"He had a pretty hefty sneeze – now Victor is a powerful boy and even his sneezes are powerful," Evatt told the Bolton News

:lol:
 


Mo Dahoud completely speechless in his first press conference in Frankfurt. It's in German, but the beauty of it is the silence :lol:

Seriously, how can it be so hard to answer simple questions about how you feel about the move from Brighton to Frankfurt?

If someone injured themselves after a big meal by doing a powerful fart, do you think the club/player would be open about it?

Nope. Far from it. Let’s just call it for what it is though eh

Of course she isnt paid as much as Jurgen. And unlike Klopp she can’t subsequently afford a sabbatical.

It’s simple business economics. I don’t think Jurgen would need that explaining to him.

She should realise that the average attendance for WSL 22/23 was 5k. This went up to 7k for the 23/24 season

She must also acknowledge that tv rights for 1 season of EPL equates to 1.6 Billion whilst the WSL is currently valued at 15.6 million per annum . Less than 1% of the means game

She should be grateful for her salary….which is probably an awful lot more than what you or I earn

So you agree that she should make more money than Rooney, as the USWNT have a higher average attendance than Plymouth? More than the managers of Monaco, Girona, Getafe, Cagliari etc.?

USWNT also generate more revenue than the USMNT.

The revenue is also higher than that of Plymouth and around the same as Gagliari’s.

Not when they’ll only play 22 matches in the calendar year…of which 8 were friendlies.

That’s 14 competitive matches in 12 months. Plymouth will play 17 competitive matches Oct-Dec

And having a much lower number of games they still generate more revenue than Plymouth.

Also, it’s you who brought up the average attendance. In that column, they rank higher than Plymouth. Pretty impressive considering 8 of their games were friendlies without anything at stake.

I would expect them to generate more. Their market audience is far greater. Roughly 349,725,000 greater.
 
Yep this fun thread is definitely the place for some culture war bickering....

Comparing the best job in the women's game to the men's game and saying comparatively there aren't that many jobs that are bigger? She's got a point.

You just tell her again what she needs to realise, acknowledge and be grateful for. I'm sure she'll appreciate it Mr. Tate.

Tuanzebe sustains freak hand injury while washing up​


https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c30l9jqqdy1o



Ipswich Town defender Axel Tuanzebe is expected to be out for at least a month after sustaining a freak hand injury while doing the washing up.

The 26-year-old DR Congo international sustained a deep cut to his thumb while he was washing the dishes last week.

The former Manchester United and Aston Villa player had started the first six Premier League games of the season for promoted Ipswich before missing Saturday's 4-1 loss to West Ham.

Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna said on Saturday Tuanzebe's injury was a "very unfortunate accident".

"He's naturally a miss with the way he's started the season. He's going to be out for a little while," McKenna said.

Ipswich told BBC Sport the accident had occurred at home and Tuanzebe has had successful surgery.

Wait, a bloke doing the washing up?
 
It's just a preference thing, not misandry but I do prefer watching women do the dishes over men.

I'm confused how this can make someone be out for a few months though?
 
Newport vs Peterborough on Saturday, somehow this is given as a corner :lol:

Really weird one that. Could have cost them too, Peterborough 2-1 down at that point.

From this angle it's harder to work out exactly what happened. Throw in in very muted celebrations too and I can maybe see why the ref didn't get it depnding on his angle. Linesman should have seen it though as he can see similar to to the angle in the tweet. Complete off topic - what's with the huge gap between the edge of the pitch and the stands on the bbc angle? Weird stadium.

You've always got to ask how the ball ended up in the back of the net I suppose. Don't know why the goal is so wobbly and the side of the net even rose ever so slightly off the ground but not enough for a ball to get under it.

The ball is in the net, but it's not a goal? Did they check the side netting for holes? Because how else would they explain the ball ending up in the back of the net without it being an actual goal?

Team criticised for picking YouTube star as striker​



Argentine side Deportivo Riestra have been accused of showing a "lack of respect towards football" after picking a YouTube star as a striker in a top-flight match.

Ivan Buhajeruk, better known as Spreen, started at home to Primera Division leaders Velez Sarsfield on Monday before being substituted after less than a minute of the 1-1 draw.

Buhajeruk, 24, has no professional football experience but was given a professional contract by the Buenos Aires club in February.

He has more than seven million subscribers on Youtube and advertises an energy drink that is also Riestra's shirt sponsor.
