BTTMUU: Moving. As I may have previously mentioned I hate change.

Me too. But at least it kinda looks like the old foro.

BTTMUU: Donald fucking Trump.

Seeing the stories of the people who have been in America since they were very young and are now facing deportation breaks my heart. It seems petty. This whole "They are stealing our jobs" spiel is balls. More propaganda designed to make people hate.

His wife is an immigrant and he himself is half Scottish. His first ex-wife is also an immigrant. He's got 4 children to these two women, therefore making them half eastern European. Nobody brings this up.

I'm more worried about Trump than Kim Jong-Un, which speaks volumes really.

Did you see him with the hurricane survivors ? He was walking around picking up random kids and kissing them. Cringe.

I feel I must point out that this Smilie ->

Udinese's pricing policy for the visit of Juventus. €55 for away fans behind the goal & prime seats at €120 for home fans! Madness & pure exploitation. Wrong, wrong so wrong.

Category A games usually are more expensive. In Scotland say Hibernian are playing Hamilton the tickets will be £22.50, when Rangers and Celtic come calling the prices will bump up to at least £45. They know they can do it because they get more home fans and they away end is always full.
Most football fans are working class and Celtic or Rangers fans are no richer than Hamilton fans, and clubs know this but they don't care.
I would assume it's like this in most countries, except Germany where they really cater to their fans. I shudder to think what prices PSG games are now.

Maximum price for away fans in the EPL is £30 apparently or so a friend said last night. He also pointed out that Juventus charged Man Utd fans £55 for a CL Semi Final in '99. I should have known that because I went to Turin with him!

If it was that in 99, these days it must be double that. And there's travel and accommodation, plus food and drink, all to take into consideration. I'd have to take out a small loan to go to one away match in the champions league.

When I was a kid prices for the White Sox baseball games and parking and such was normal. EXCEPT when the New York Yankees came to town. All prices went up. Pretty standard

As for things making me upset- Ventura! Fire him after the next game

That's only a recent thing. I paid £44 for a restricted view at Anfield 2 seasons ago and that was only for Leicester. Gate receipt money isn't even a particularly significant part of the revenue for Premier League clubs these days.

Did you see that "goal" by Panama though?

Lupo Pazzesco · Post 13-10-17 09:56

The little buggers. There's a massive one in my bathroom. Several of the smaller ones by the window in my bedroom. I feel like the cat might catch them if they get too near to me. Not out of duty but because he does enjoy a wee snack of an evening.

Dels · Post 17-10-17 19:33

I have the cats job in my house. I don't eat them tho.
