The Treasurer Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 10 hours ago, Dino Velvet said: Pretty demoralising really. Sorry for sounding like a certain poster from Hamilton but I’m still trying to get my head around the nations league. The whole point of the NL was to cut out meaningless friendlies and replace them with meaningless competitive matches. I'm sure the format will be altered as not all the "right" nations qualified for the finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Internationally England wear that hat. For the record I am not a rabid nationalist who hates all things English, purely football/sport. I take your point. We just differ slightly on the England thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If said Alloa supporter said to me ‘I don’t get why you care if Hibs win or lose’, I’d say ‘I only want them to lose’. Unless of course, them winning was beneficial to Hearts. To summarise: I hate Hibs and want the worst for them. I don’t hate England and therefore couldn’t really care what happens in their games, unless they are playing Scotland.

I really can't decide on it. Most of me thinks it's shite but it does come to the right decision (kind of, I bet there's loads of little things the ref misses that nothing is done about but leads to bigger moments, but how far do you go?), but it just strikes me as something thats been designed by faceless corporate robots who have never played football in their life. The EPL is going to be an absolute shambles with it for the early parts of next season so that'll be fun to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EPL is going to be an absolute shambles with it for the early parts of next season so that'll be fun to see. I agree it definitely comes to the right decision. The reason though why football is the best sport in the world is that explosive moment when a goal goes in. Now you will hold something back to check before going mad and it’s that split second of doubt that slightly spoils the magic.
