The Football Thread

Birmingham City have signed a South Korean player. They used a symbol used by a South Korean boy band, BTS.

Its' all kicking off on social media with the BTS fans, who are threatening the club with legal action.

BCFC have recently signed an agreement which sees them getting money for social media impressions.

Someone deserves a bonus.

Looking at it, it just seems like a little tongue in cheek humour and nothing more.
Besides, BTS frickin' suck....they should be thankful for the free publicity. Losers.

Birmingham City FC have acquired a massive plot of land not far from the city centre. It's 21 hectares. They're going to build a massive multi sport and entertainment venue there, along the lines of the more recent NFL stadiums.

The deal has been confirmed. Blues are getting a 62,000 stadium and events centre with hotels, offices, restaurants and bars.

The aim is to host national and international sporting events including football, rugby and NFL.

Dion Sanderson, our club captain, has been arrested for drink driving.

How any one in this day and age, let alone someone earning about £15k a week, can not get a taxi is beyond me.

I hope the club gets rid of him.

I'm watching soccer...or rather I would be if it wasn't for the ongoing debate over some team or other getting screwed out of two or three penalties, the impartiality (or not, as the case may be) of a particular referee, etc.
