:SVK football league is so fun to watch sometimes :d we use the newest technologies which can stop the game at 22nd minute to quickly "resurface" the pitch :p but still have some dozen of fans in the stands bored to death while watching matches ...

League Football in :TKM reaching Scottish levels of excitement!

 

A football team in Turkmenistan has made a stunning debut in the country's top league, winning the national championship in its first season.

 

But Arkadag is no ordinary club. It was set up by authoritarian ex-leader Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov* and claims most of the national team in its ranks.

 

NB That is Gurbanguly Mälikgulyýewiç Berdimuhamedow, not to be confused with any other lesser Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, of course.

Big derby game in England tomorrow is Ipswich v Norwich.  Very unusual in that most of their fans come from small villages and each county only has one professional team, so it is effectively Suffolk (Ipswich) v Norfolk (Norwich). Back in post-Roman times, this was the Kingdom of East Anglia & in pre-Roman times it was the land of the Icenii, who famously once beat the Romans in a battle (but not the war, of course).

The 100 best male footballers in 2023 according to The Guardian:

https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2023/dec/19/the-100-best-male-footballers-in-the-world-2023

 

Some interesting choices. Personally i find it difficult to for example compare a goalkeeper and a striker, i think it would be better to have a top 10 for every position.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

    • Though I did just see that today's race isn't valid for FIS points.
    • Let's not act as if these things never happen before. Serbia's cross-country skiing drama a week before the Olympic qualifying for Beijing ended: FIS | Cross-Country Results - Zlatibor (SRB) 2021/2022   Drndic with a DNF, despite being - on paper at least - the best athlete. She didn't just 'not finish', she stepped out barely 50 meters before the finish, because if finishing, the points for her competitor would have been better due to the way points are calculated. Ended up with lots and lots of yelling and screaming and fighting and cursing, DNS the next day and in the end Serbia sent none of them.   This is not a shit move by Canada, this is a fault of the system at most.
    • Yes agreed, resetting it would help make it more dramatic as no one would be running away with it. We could also set it that there is a small reward for ranking higher after each round… maybe they start the next round with a “head start” so they bring a few points into the next round? But starting from scratch each round might be cleaner  
    • I like the concept a lot. My only worry would be that the nations doing the best individually would also end up at the top here as teams are only made up of pairs. Whereas in a bigger team it gives the nations not doing so well individually to have another chance if they are lucky enough to be placed in a good team. Any way we can balance it?
    • I thought about accumulating, but for higher drama it may be reset like in cycling track elimination races 
    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).
