The football (soccer) thread

I watched the highlights, looks like Tottenham v Arsenal had its fair share of entertainment.

Having lived in Yorkshire for 8 years, I have a soft spot for Leeds United, who are likeley to be toppled from automatic promotion into the play-offs by Ipswich with a game in hand and all to play for.  I watched Leeds knock the hellfire daylights out of Celtic in 72 or 73 on a black and white telly, so I shouldn't really like them, but COME ON THE LEEDS!

You've got no worries compared to me.

Until the debacle that was the Mason Greenwood affair I was a Man U supporter. I've never seen a sporting club in any discipline shoot itself in the foot so many times. With Greenwood they had a chance to stand up and state the obvious which was that the police and the original complainant (who is now the mother of his child) had dropped all charges so what's the issue? However, they let the woke brigade and the media vultures determine what was going to happen.

Yes, I understand, although the debacle at Stamford Bridge has been dispiriting.
