⚽️ We are quite ready to welcome the fandom of "The Chorus of the Crowd: Culture, Power, and Identities in Football Fandom" conference, kicking-off in two-months time. 😉
@GottaLaff Here you go: 2020 Etna Bianco by Graci goes down pretty well when well chilled. Have no idea whether you'll be able to find it in Canada. Hope so 🙂 Have just polished off a bottle in company while watching #Italy play sad #football.
Fond memories of BBC Sport running a pretentiously-shot interview piece with Joey Barton aimed at presenting him as some kind of working-class philosopher. Simpler times. ⚽️🙄 #football#MastodonFC
⚽🇧🇪🇸🇰 #Euro2024
Бум! Ще одна сенсація на Євро. Звісно, я очікував несподіваного програшу бельгійців... Але українцям, а не словакам! Тепер карти сплутаної остаточно. Навіть не зрозуміло чи в плюс нам цей результат чи в мінус. Скоріше друге - в останньому турі Бельгія буде надмотивована. #football
I'm in a bar, entirely uninterested in the sportsball on TV, until I find that one of the teams has just recently agreed a sponsorship deal with a weapons manufacturer, Rheinmetall. I'm suddenly enthusiastically supporting their opponents.
It seems that TNT Sports is not permitting a free YouTube stream of tonight's Champions League Final, unlike previous years, further illustrating the growing greed in elite #football and its myopic distancing from the fans which sustain it. I honestly don't know why anyone bothers any more. Put your money into #NonLeagueFootball, where it's genuinely appreciated. ⚽️ #NonLeague#MastodonFC
"Almost one in four #stadiums in the top four divisions of English football will experience total or partial #flooding within the next quarter of a century.
The 2023-24 #football season in the #UK has already been hit by 10 named storms including Babet.
It's not just rising sea levels that pose a problem: heatwaves, drought, fires and air pollution are all set to disrupt a multitude of sports in the coming decades."
If you are an American, born, raised, and attended the local district system through high school, do you remember the name of mascot for the football team?
One of the great things about #NonLeagueFootball is that the calendar is like a pre-Premier League calendar, so we'll be heading to our third game of Easter today. Cray Valley (PM) face local-ish rivals Sevenoaks Town in the continued push for the championship and sole automatic promotion place. ⚽️ #NonLeague#Football#MastodonFC#SouthEastLondon
Today in Labor History March 21, 1946: The Los Angeles Rams signed Kenny Washington, the first professional African American football player in the U.S. since 1933. His father played baseball in the negro leagues. His uncle was the first black lieutenant in the LAPD. In college, he played both baseball and football. He was a teammate of Jackie Robinson’s at UCLA. Many people thought he was a better baseball player than Robinson. Leo Durocher supposedly offered him a contract to play major league baseball, but only if he played in Puerto Rico first, which Washington refused to do.
I wonder what the oldest #videogame is that still has some kind of #online community. I was watching a #youtube video about people playing dead #ps2 games and it made me curious. Initially I thought maybe #doom but I know there's some #football game on the #amiga that's still a thing but I can't remember it. Also maybe #nethack (not technically multiplayer) or #hunt (maybe doesn't have much of a community?). #gaming
