Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted May 22, 2020 Paid Members Posted May 22, 2020 It's the fact it's the other teams in the league ripping on them for getting the photo wrong that's best. Gotta love it. Quote
BrodyGraham Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Was watching a video earlier that touched on how the rest of the world doesn't take MLS seriously. I'm sure shit like this helps immensely. Quote

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted May 27, 2020 Paid Members Posted May 27, 2020 Was writing a piece on Daniel Storey's Gazza In Italy book. Had a look at the top scorers in England and Italy in 1992/93: Premier League - Sheringham, Ferdinand, Holdsworth, Quinn, Shearer, White, Armstrong, Cantona, Deane, Hughes, Le Tissier, Robins and Wright. Serie A - Giuseppe Signori, Roberto Baggio, Abel Balbo, Ruben Sosa, Gabriel Batistuta, Daniel Fonseca, Roberto Mancini, Maurizio Ganz, Jean-Pierre Papin, Florin Raducioiu, Marco Van Basten and Gianfranco Zola. Different world. Italy still had the foreigner rule too. That helped spread the quality but imagine how many more star names would have been there without it. Quote
Moderators PowerButchi Posted May 28, 2020 Moderators Posted May 28, 2020 Brian Deane is immeasurably better than any of those spaghetti munchers. Quote

That's not bad considering English football began in 1992. Quote

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 28, 2020 Author Paid Members Posted May 28, 2020 Brian Deane was at least better than Fonseca and Ganz, who were both shit. Quote
