For years my relationship with Manchester United was a tepid one, until a  lad called Roy Keane caught my eye - BelfastTelegraph.co.uk

 
Sounds like Darren decided to stay at home with the missus instead of showing up for his squad photo

One pre Euro 2016. Pretty sure there was a final squad pic of the 23 man squad too but cant find it.

All the clubs in England still do it. 


You sure? Show me a Man Utd team photo for this season
Wouldn't know where to look as have zero interest in Man United.
Liverpool did their's a few weeks ago. Saw Reading doing theirs last week as they did a fan meet and greet in a shopping centre afterwards!


Southampton did one last week.


Silver in the trophy cabinet in Dalymount

Think they won the u19 cup last night so bad timing on that one!LOL

I know Benzema's on the bench tonight but it's becoming increasingly common for a team to have more than one penalty taker during a match, regardless of the scoreline and if any substitutions have been made. I notice it all the time now.

I don't think some clubs have done it the last two years due to Covid reasons but they 100% have done it in recent years.



Just came across this whilst scrolling through twitter

Players wearing regular football socks. 

Benzema and Kroos are the highest profile examples I can think of that don't seem to cut the foot off a football sock and tape it on to a regular crew sock.

I think Pavarotti’s song was just the BBC intro. Not an official song.

Yeah think you're right.  There was a lot of The Three Tenors concerts on around the World Cup in Italy so presumed it was some sort of official anthem
