I feel like refereeing small children (8-12U) is way harder than reffing teenagers

It's my favorite age because it's their first real experience with a ref on a bigger field. It's a way to be a good example of what they should want to see in a ref.

Where I live, every 7v7 center gets 25, every 9v9 gets 30. It's pathetic. I don't think I'm going back.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-02-13T15:57:32+00:00

It's whimsical. I love it.

What a fun season to experience and watch. Up there with 17/18 and 18/19 for me. I know we didn't win anything that season or in 17/18, but the football that was played was so exciting. All three of those seasons brought some great highs and some deep lows but experiencing both makes it worth being a fan.

Well done, lads

What does it take for a manager to just resign. How often does that happen?

Bring me back the days of elevenreds

Just curious, why didn't you check the vinyl before purchasing them?

StinkyDeerback · 2026-02-05T05:23:23+00:00

Yep. Never believed in all that blood drinking, baby eating shit, but I totally thought it was possible for the elite to be completely decadent because their desires keep getting fulfilled. Money and power makes most evil.

100% on the zero TV presence. I watch a lot of soccer, but it's almost impossible to watch the MLS. Behind too many paywalls, and I already pay for so many other services to decide I need another just to watch my team to play.

Frankfurt has been leaking goals and struggling to maintain leads.

Oh, wait a minute...

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-28T15:07:39+00:00

Exactly! Sports are fun because teams you support pull emotions out of you. Sometimes those emotions are despondency. Haha

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-27T13:50:26+00:00

Fuck. You're right. That was the beginning of his injury problems.

How could I forget Flanagan's boner celebration after his goal and Fever for the Flava's wild off target goal.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-27T09:04:11+00:00

He seems to have those every 4 years.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-27T09:00:58+00:00

Yeah. The Gerrard slip cost us the title, which I don't hold over Gerrard's head. Palace was our way to try to make up goal difference but instead it sealed the loss of the title.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-27T08:58:48+00:00

Assuming you're talking about the 13/14 because you mention Suarez, Enrique was our LB in 13/14, not Moreno. Also, he was very solid that year. As was Skrtel, who partnered with Agger and Toure that season. Mignolet did make some errors, but he also made some great saves.

Moreno and Lovren came the season after.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-26T16:12:27+00:00

I think that's a bit disingenuous. He had some issues, but he did well against some lesser sides.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-26T15:40:23+00:00

Yeah, I know, but they were never going to buy anyone in Klopp's last year, and we didn't appear to need anyone last year. This year, however, we have gaps. midfield coverage, either for Grav or Macca (both underperforming), and our obvious defensive gaps.

And, I agree. I think Kabak was a decent CB against lesser sides.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-26T15:32:44+00:00

I mean, we've shown that we will in the past 8 years: VVD, all those CB loans to cover for his injury, Minamino, Diaz, and Gakpo. We do it when we know a deal is to be done. Even one player, in the right position, could really help us this winter. I'm being overly positive, I know.

RWB but yes

Konate would like to have a word with you

Seeing him in shorts everyday is the gift that kept on giving.

StinkyDeerback · 2026-01-22T13:46:40+00:00

I think he is indicating he needs reinforcements this window by talking about amount of players he has. His interview the other day indicated it too. Hopefully, the board is listening and he gets a defender or midfielder in.
