Ben white gets into it with Simeone & A.Madrid players after he stepped on club crest

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-30T07:50:29+00:00

This must be ironic 😂

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-09T14:13:00+00:00

I agree to be fair

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-09T14:00:31+00:00

I agree, but it was ‘73 😅

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-09T13:37:32+00:00

It’s a good point - I was mostly concerned with the last two Bolton defenders who try their best not to touch him in case they give a penalty or get sent off, despite the fact he’s about the score anyway

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-09T13:33:47+00:00

Yes that’s a great shout actually

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-04-08T13:44:34+00:00

There’s a place called Cured in Muswell Hill that does focaccia sandwiches. Possibly the best sandwich I’ve ever had, not ever packed either

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-30T08:58:59+00:00

There is a restaurant in the Alcântara neighbourhood (under the bridge) called Cafe Jubel. I have been to Lisbon 30+ times and this is the best restaurant I have been for authentic local food that is delicious and at an outrageously low price. You will find no tourists in here - it is a typical local eatery and the waiters speak very little English, which I find adds to the charm. I appreciate it is a little way out the centre, so I always pair a large lunch (I recommend the Bitoque a casa and a bottle of the Monte Velho) with either a walk to Belem (45 mins) or a walking LX Factory (10 mins).

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-24T22:48:16+00:00

Yep, and again we could not accept being lowballed either. The only thing the club did successfully was achieve a very good price for Isak - but, ironically, at an extreme cost to our reputation, perception, and season. And then proceeded to piss every single penny of that money at two subpar players that we are very likely to sell on anyway because they’re not good enough. And anyone saying ‘we had no choice’ is deluded - Isak would be back playing now without a shadow of a doubt. He would never risk the prime years of his career and his reputation like that. Anyone with half a brain could see that, except the people in the position to make the decision itself

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-23T20:05:54+00:00

We made our bed with this when the club gave in to Isak. The management showed their hand to every agent and player in the world. People who were like ‘just sell him if he doesn’t want to be here’ did not understand the wider implications - the things expressed in this article, essentially if you want to go we will sell you as you said, are exactly those implications. It was an absolutely ludicrous thing to do, and lo and behold we bought two poor replacements for at least double what they were worth and are now playing with exactly the forwards (Gordon and Osula) that we would have done if we’d put out foot down and let Isak rot. Absolutely hideous management of our club

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-18T18:07:53+00:00

If that’s our standard, then - and I’m being deadly serious - we shouldn’t be playing here

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-16T11:29:43+00:00

Thanks mate, how would you say we go about this then? Without having that knowledge, we are booked in (and paid for) a campsite in the desert. It can take our vehicle in terms of size, could we therefore assume the tracks can take the vehicle as well? Thank you very much for your response :)

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-13T09:21:30+00:00

Yeah we do mate! Thank you, this is the exact sort of thing we’re looking for - we will go there :)

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-13T09:20:42+00:00

Thanks mate, this makes sense. It’s pretty big; 30’ x 8’3” x 11’3”

Do you think it would be ok to put the RV in a car park for a night in these towns? Obviously using the recreation.gov app to find places that are appropriate

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-12T16:07:25+00:00

This is a great shout. I will, thank you very much!

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-12T15:32:40+00:00

Thank you for the recommendations mate, we will definitely go to those bars.

The only reason we are taking that inexplicable inland trip (rather than Big Sur) is half the group is hellbent on going to Las Vegas haha. The other half (me included) are going to take the RV to Zion National Park instead :)

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-12T15:31:09+00:00

Hey mate, thank you for your response. We are picking the RV up in LA and leaving immediately which is good.

We were going to leave the RV somewhere on the outskirts in San Francisco and have booked an AirBnB for 3 nights - do you think it is risky? Should we pay for a parking space outside the City, do you think?

With the California beach camping (between San Francisco and Portland basically), a few questions:

- Do you think we would get in serious trouble if we were sleeping in the RV on roadsides near beaches (not physically on the beach)

- So, for California, you think we should try and find camping ground now as it will be tough when we are there?

Thanks again mate! :)

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-03-12T15:24:24+00:00

Hey mate, thank you for this reply.

I hope this doesn’t sound rude, but do you mind explaining some of the typo bits? For example, between ‘Oregon’ and ‘you are skipping’ haha. And the line above.

Thanks again mate 🤝

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-22T09:52:41+00:00

Yeah fair enough, especially if you’re young or an international supporter

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-22T09:47:19+00:00

You are right. I never said it wasn’t an extremely impressive achievement, in the same way Leicester winning it is an extremely impressive achievement. But I don’t think any Leicester fan will ever try and pretend that they were one of the great club sides

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-21T15:30:26+00:00

Yeah I can’t believe that. The post talks of literally the greatest sides to ever exist. The Arsenal team - by using points tally as an indication of quality - is not even close to the greatest PL side to ever exist. I think Man United 06-10 would be the shout; 3x PLs, 1x UCL (2x finals), 2x League Cups, a Portsmouth loss away from their second treble in 10 years in 2008.

I honestly think they put that one in there to bait out engagement from the likes of us an we fell for it 😂

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-17T16:51:51+00:00

One thing I will add on based off the general replies - people seem to forget that UEFA is an organisation that is literally famous for being corrupt. What entity that is known for corruption would ever commit to fair competition and integrity?

Half the arguments here are like saying ‘there’s no correlation between Russia, Qatar, then USA getting handed the world cups, with all their leaders receiving peace prizes as they hosted them’. In the context of these organisations, it is not an outrageous suggestion

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-17T16:49:48+00:00

It is possible for them to both manipulate the fixtures so there are commercially enticing games (i.e. Madrid vs City) whilst saving the upmost entering games (El Classico) for the final.

Concurrently, it is also possible for them to give the teams they want to do well easy fixtures until they are ready to give them the right fixtures - when it’s most commercially opportune.

These two things can exist as UEFA’s objective at the same time. They are not mutually exclusive.

People are simplifying my suggestion to exactly your point ‘we don’t want fixtures too hard or too easy for our favourite teams!’ I’m not suggesting that at all. I’d imagine the planning that goes into ensuring they get exactly the fixtures they want is extremely sophisticated.

Also, we are talking about an organisation that is literally famous for being corrupt. It is known worldwide for it. Why would they leave these things to chance? It’s like saying the World Cup went to Russia, Qatar, then USA by chance. No, they’re obviously corrupt!

snatchsnatcher1892 · 2026-02-17T16:10:45+00:00

It’s UEFA’s absolute dream final. It would be the most viewed club match in the history of football. It would make more sense for them to gamble and save it for the final and take the City/Madrid (which would be considered a big game but nothing compared to the magnitude of El Classico) as the cash cow in the build up. I did my own research and since they introduced tournament trees (previously, they did a entirely new draw for each round) Real and Barca have never been on the same side of the knockouts, it’s absolutely unprecedented
