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.

I hope Southgate sticks to his promise to leave at the end of the Euros.

I was never really into soccer.
Two of my nephews played rugby all over the country though.
Was chuckling about this..

This may be of interest to someone. A friend of mine has 2 tickets for the euros final Sunday He paid £300 each but he didn't realise when he bought them months ago that it was going to be the same day as his wedding! If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place.
It's at South Shields Registry Office, at 4pm. The bride's name is Nicola -- she's 5'4", about 8 stone, quite pretty, has her own income and is a really good cook..

Blues are set to demolish the league one transfer record, which we previously set a couple of weeks ago

We've agreed terms with Fulham and Stansfield, but Fulham are waiting to complete a deal for his replacement.
