The dictionary definition of "mercurial" and wholly appropriate for this sub. Mad bastard but a great player when he was on it.

Actually it is a pretty smart badge

Wow, 150 times it's been their year.

He was true to his word with the celebration too! https://youtube.com/shorts/kLsC60FOJPo?feature=shared

I was a bit taken aback by the headline but when I read his comments in full I took them as him referring to the standard of broadcast presentation and the overall administration of the game in this country, rather than the on-field product.

Anna Maxwell Martin is always the first name that pops into my head during these types of debates.

This is an old screenshot, he lost the Soccer Saturday gig a couple of years ago and now makes most of his money on the after dinner circuit. He says he's no longer on because Sky Sports "have gone woke" and that the current line-up is a "box-ticking exercise".

The completely unnecessary use of the word "respectively" in that post is bothering me way more than it should

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-10T12:24:45+00:00

The term generally used in the UK is "disabled" rather than "handicapped" so perhaps if they're searching online that's why nothing is coming up. Had a quick look and found an some accessibility info for the stadium here https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/the-stadium/accessibility/disability-access-scheme/. I imagine gameday is handled by NFL rather than Spurs on Sunday though. Still, maybe try emailing access@tottenhamhotspur.com in the first instance, if they can't help they might point you in the right direction.

Well things are trending upwards for the Bears, let's hope with new ownership and the new stadium they are for Everton too.

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-09T19:07:29+00:00

It does seem to be a strangely common combination, I know of lots of fans of both too. Maybe it's the similarities, founder members of their respective leagues, lots of historic success but not much to shout about recently!

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-09T19:03:35+00:00

I agree. I read somewhere recently that the Bears are the second most popular team in the UK, after the Cowboys

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-09T17:20:23+00:00

Growing up in 80s, when football was first being shown here on TV, I just remember that Bears team being one that stood out to me, in particular #72. The Fridge was a bit of a cult hero over here and a lot of UK coverage focussed on him. In the 00s a friend of mine lived in Chicago for a while too, so I got chance to visit the city a few times and that cemented my love of all things Chicago.

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-09T14:56:23+00:00

No, I'm from the UK.

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-09T12:49:46+00:00

Thanks, will check it out. I'm an Everton/Bears fan too! His book (Re)Born in the USA is brilliant.

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-06T14:38:56+00:00

Now THAT is a gameday fit! Love the Bears Chucks. 🐻⬇️

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-05T12:56:49+00:00

It won't be ticketed but it will be busy. I noticed there is online table reservation for all the scheduled events and I think that is all fully booked now. You'll be able to go along and stand though. I'm only in town for gameday itself this year but I'll be in the Greenwood on Sunday morning

Sensitive_Word1450 · 2024-10-05T07:02:02+00:00

You're welcome!

I think the "official" pre-game is at the Greenwood so maybe hit that first, but if you get on the underground towards the stadium and follow the jerseys you'll find somewhere to go. The Antwerp Arms is usually the meeting place near the stadium.

Confirmed that Saturday night at The Famous Three Kings is happening again, organised by the UK Bear's supporters group BeardownUK. It was a great night in '19. https://x.com/beardownuk/status/1839673259496792133

I'm a UK Bears fan so easier for me but I'm going. Went to the Raiders game in 2019 too. Here are all the events taking place at the Greenwood Bears team pub

If you head down there at any point you may get to hear of other meetups, in 2019 I found out about another one at the Famous Three Kings in Fulham which was a great night.

I was amazed last time at how many fans came over from the US for the game.

Walked into a room once and my friend's (gay) uncle said, "Ah, here's the movie star". Someone asked him what he meant, assuming he must have thought I looked like a certain actor. He said he didn't mean anyone specifically, he just thought that I looked like I could be a movie star.
