One day we'll all look back at the 2025 Club World Cup with fond memories similar to those on this thread. Got a feeling Tunis v Chelsea is going to be a classic with the whole nation behind the blues attempting to get out of the group stage with a potential QF with Hilal at stake. Going to be magical stuff.

Have a massive spat over Twitter. Increase traffic on Twitter. Increase profits for Twitter. Probably. Entertaining none the less.

What is Glasgow Saint's opinion on all this?

Bollocks. My joke was supposed to say 'my favourite series' but I did it wrong and now I can't edit. I look like a right cock now.

My favourite season is winter. Edit: Huh, turns out I can edit. But if I do, my next post won't make as much sense. What a muddle.

"GenZee", "Gen X", "Gen Alpha", "Millennials" etc. Why can't we just refer to 'people in their teens/20s/30s' any more?

Why do people always associate lower points of others teams with poor quality. There are 20 teams in the PL every season. There are always 3 points for a win, and 1 point for a draw. Always the same points on offer across the season. If anything, lower points totals surely means that the league is more competitive and not dominated by a small number of teams that are streets ahead. [/MLG]

Doesn't really annoy me as much as it mildly amuses me, but I keep seeing an advert for Walkers crisps with 2 pairs of footballers 'surprising' punters in 2 different pubs. Pub 1: Messi and Suarez - everyone turns around and is amazed/cannot believe it. Pub 2: Lauren James and Leah Williams (I think). Punters appear to have exactly the same reaction as those in Pub 1. Would expect pub 2 to be much more excited in reality.

Never really got people's dislike for him. Good footballer in his day. Pretty articulate and intelligent (for a former footballer). Seems to stand up for what he feels is morally right. Is clearly well liked by people he works with. Yes, he's well paid and perhaps comes across a little smug at times (I probably would too in his shoes), but on balance I'd say he's definitely one of the top pundits on TV and a shame to lose from MoTD. His 'rat' post was very obviously just a silly mistake which clearly had zero intention of causing offence, and something he immediately retracted and fully (and genuinely) apologised for once he'd realised. Anyway, back to the little things that bring me joy. I slept through the night last night without having to get up and do a wee (until 6am at least). A small win in life these days.

Would never happen. Mathematicians haven't invented numbers high enough yet.

I was being nice, Mr Defensive. 😢

You're a lovely guy MLG. Always assuming the best in people. 🥰

Starting to think Saints aren't that good this season.

What's all this 'North London Forever' stuff before Arsenal games these days? Is it new? Sure I'd never particularly heard it until a few months ago, and now commentators seem to have a little spunk every time it's sung. It's like a shit(ter) YNWA knock-off.
