It's very interesting discussions, but feel like it's unfair to judge players/managers when they take online critique close to heart. The line of "I don't read the papers" isn't applicable anymore, and it's virtually impossible to "mute" all content around yourself when you're that big, right?

Managed to skip a whole season of #Viaplay due to exorbitant prices and nonsense, but wanted to watch more football this season.
Have seen a couple of games and half of them have been buffering for the the last 15 minutes...
Great service...

A letter from Philippe Auclair - josimarfootball.com The reality we at Josimar face is stark. Should we fail to raise € 50k by 1 July, the world's only investigative media dedicated solely to football will cease to exist.

We have one month to save @josimarfootball.bsky.social. If you can help, please do. 🙏

The essay, at its end, gives some suggestions about what can be done not only to resist but move beyond fascism. Please do have a read if you have a moment, and please share if of interest.

Another gap filled in the Icelandic photo history! 1992 friendly in Israel. I was expecting the 1991-92 away, but absolutely not the ABM shirt that the women's side used in Scotland. Disastrous for collection goals, but interesting historically.

I've found that Danish is only really "needed":
-at a workplace, even when English is the corporate language
-at a house party, because then you're usually surrounded by childhood friends who tend to group up, and so if you at least understand Danish it'll help you to fit in a bit better

Stats to compare managers post-2000 in terms of win %, goals scored and goals conceded. Åge Hareide is nr 3, 3, and 6 respectively in those metrics

Vísir journalist Óskar Ófeigur Jónsson has compiled a set of stats to sum up Åge Hareide's reign in charge of the national team vs other managers post-2000.

Interestingly, Hareide's team has the 3rd highest win perc and in number of goals scored. A bit lower for goals conceded, sitting in 6th.

There has been near constant speculation over the Norwegian manager's future, with some reports going so far to say that a new manager already has a verbal agreement with the federation

Åge Hareide
