After a
spectacular European Cup and a somewhat mediocre Olympic Games, FOOTBALL SEASON
IS BACK! But knowing how stupid modern football is thanks to the new rules
being implemented every 5 minutes or so, and a certain blue scum always winning and avoiding punishment, the
beautiful game has slowly been becoming more of a slog than exciting. But,
still… Hope remains that the robotic style of play and huge sum of money will
be kicked out of the beautiful game one day. Until then, I’m back to doing what
I normally do: Select the best games of the month and write them down with
quirky and somewhat funny notes attached to them. Oh and not to forget to
include the table as well and feature the highlights, brought to you by Arena
Sport (if someone from Arena actually ends up reading my reports, I want to say
first and foremost that I used to mention you a while ago, but got tired of it.
I’m still thanking you for uploading your highlights, though).
Before I begin,
I would like to apologise for my false promise of being able to write stuff
during August, but the sheer amount of work I had to do for my thesis drained
my energy hard, which made me unable to even write a poem I had in mind. And
another thing to add is with the new European Championship format. What the
fuck were they thinking with scrapping the groups for a league table system…?
Alright, then.
Let us begin covering AUGUST! And a bit of September, because I thought to
include Manchester United vs. Liverpool in this, due to their historic rivalry.
And for this one occasion, I had my “delusional football fan” put on with the
hopes of a win. You’ll see how that turned out…
