There are also other teams (apart Leicester City) that won the domestic championships in last weekend, congratulations :yes

 

:SUI FC Basel :champion: 19th title (and secure place in group stage of UCL 2016/17)

:CRO Dinamo Zagreb :champion: 17th Croatian title (and 11th in a row)

:CZE Viktoria Plzeň :champion:  4th title

:ROU  Astra Giurgiu :champion: first title

:CYP  APOEL FC   :champion: 25th title

:AZE  Qarabag :champion: 4th title

:GIB  Lincoln FC :champion: 22nd title (and 14th in a row)

I knew Gibraltar had one very dominant team, but I always thought it was a bit more close in Croatia :yikes:

 

Here the championship will be decided Sunday, the last day of the competition (apart from play-offs for the European spots and stuff). Ajax and PSV apparently are both equal in points :p

It can't be considering that they govern all of the football and national football federation (which is full of mafia and corruption), plus they have their 2nd club with more than 10 players loaned (Lokomotiva Zagreb), and they are playing in the same league! Yes, it sounds like it's not real, but it is true. Even their fans don't support them anymore, average of spectators in  Dinamo matches in last few years is about 1500-2000 spectators. All of that awful atmosphere also infected on national team, that's why almost no one cares about the upcoming Euro here.

CAS tells Fifa to reconsider Gibraltar’s membership ‘without delay’

 

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has ordered Fifa to reconsider Gibraltar’s application for membership and submit it to congress as soon as possible.

The Gibraltar FA had appealed to Cas against a Fifa executive committee decision, taken in September 2014, to reject its application for membership.

CAS said on Monday that Fifa’s congress “shall take all necessary measures to admit the Gibraltar Football Association as a full member of Fifa without delay”.

Gibraltar has been a member of Uefa since 2013.

 

FIFA Statement on CAS decision concerning Gibraltar

Following the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) concerning Gibraltar, the FIFA Council is expected to discuss the matter at its next meeting on 9 and 10 May 2016 and decide on the next steps, including a potential request to amend the 66th FIFA Congress agenda in order to submit the Gibraltar FA’s application for FIFA membership

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
    • More information has been released on the first edition of the World Athletics Ultimate Championships in 2026, including the events. Mixed 4x100m relay will make its global debut.    https://x.com/worldathletics/status/1859915183071662442?s=46&t=_XjleMNZelg_AVmJy7FfWA
    • Swedish sprint results:   women: 1. Sundling 2. Dahlqvist 3. Hagström 4. Ribom 5. Svahn 6. Lundgren   men: 1. Anger 2. Grate 3. Danielsson 4. McKeever (CAN) 5. Skoglund 6. Grahn
    • is considering US born goalie Joey Daccord for the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off.    https://thehockeynews.com/news/team-canada-is-seriously-considering-usa-born-joey-daccord-for-4-nations-face-off   .923 SV% in 13 games, and 9-3-1 on the season. Would be a big pickup for our goalie issues. 
    • Anyway...let's hope that this is the last time this year we see a brownfield competition!
