Genuinely just had the best idea of my life - a vidiprinter like Soccer Saturday or Final Score that you can load up alongside whatever you’re watching. So like Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix with the scores running at the bottom on a Saturday afternoon/Tuesday night
“This would be such a classic *my team* thing to do” - every set of fans in the world about every conceivable scenario
Beyond a joke. Unbelievably bad decision. And the difference between Oxford sitting second and seventh tonight #oufc

Ireland press conference in Serbia cut short after FAI shut down questions from Israeli media related to the flydubai hijack and then a racism allegation directed at an Irish player which has been strongly refuted by the FAI. Some angry scenes in the room and afterwards.
Don't see many players score with a header from outside the box...
On a hat-trick!
Northern Ireland make it three and Ciaron Brown has scored two of them.

It's mad scrolling Twitter looking for quotes these days and it's just endless pages of clearly made-up quotes
Genuinely strange to think the majority of us will never watch Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo in a live football match again. An actual end of an era.

Gavin Bazunu has released a statement on social media this evening explaining how he reached a decision that he has ‘not taken lightly’
“Thanks for giving me a bath mate”
🚨 Lamine Yamal tells The Guardian: “I went to Leo Messi and said: thank you”.
“I just thanked him a lot for everything he has done and how he’s the best. I’ve always believed he is the best”.
“I always try to distance myself a little from things that seem beautiful for show. The moment came from within. I saw him there, so I went to thank him for what he did for football, it came spontaneously”.

David Courell says there was a player vote in last 90 minutes with a 'significant majority' voting to play in the games
As such, the FAI have decided to proceed with the game

Developments with Ireland: My understanding is that Gavin Bazunu has indicated that he doesn't want to play in the game - a view expressed in meeting last night. And there are other players now deliberating over coming with him. Training delayed.

BREAKING: High Court refuses a full judicial review into planning permission for new Oxford United stadium proposed for the Triangle site, near Kidlington. #oufc
Nowhere else in the world does a city work so hard to not have a successful football team

In all the mad things I have come to expect from Oxford United and these owners, creating 9/11 themed American merch that they planned to release on 9/11 has even surprised me #oufc
