    ***2023-24 SoSH FPL: SJH, it’s time

    Weren’t we supposed to get double points for the London derbies last week? I made a bunch of changes to take advantage, and it doesn’t look like I did. Edit: apparently I’m an idiot, and that was a separate game. That wasn’t very clear. Shit.

    When will Union Berlin’s losing streak end?

    I haven’t heard any. Going 16 winless will apparently harm your job prospects. I have to say though, it sounded like he badly needed a break once the decision was made. That had to be an excruciating feeling an especially given the feelings between him and the club and the fans. Most managers...

    When will Union Berlin’s losing streak end?

    https://www.kicker.de/bjelica-und-union-gehen-im-sommer-getrennte-wege-1020594/artikel Union and Bjelica to part ways at the end of the season. Cue the speculation that Urs Fischer is coming back. (Let me hope, please - I can’t think of anything that would be more popular in this city right now.)

    Yeah, but who's in 2nd? The ongoing Bundesliga thread

    With the top spot set in the Bundesliga, there is a nasty battle going on at the bottom. Darmstadt is officially down as of today, but Köln saved their season with a last-minute penalty against Mainz. That also saved my team from dropping into a virtual tie for the relegation playoff (I was in a...

    MLS 2024: It’s Leo’s league, we’re all just playing in it

    Well, then I guess that makes sense as to why I haven’t heard about it. Anyone smarter about this sport than I am have an opinion? Kinda seems like the sort of thing that should happen everywhere, but I’m open to opposing opinions. Thanks for the info @Titans Bastard. Shows you what I know...

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Marvin Friedrich, who put Union into the Bundesliga, almost had a hand in knocking them out\, at the death today. But 0-0 final. Union should have had 3 points though. 5 really good chances in the 2nd half.... Two monster matches coming up against Bochum and Köln now. Mainz play Köln now, in...

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Volland hit the post with the GK out of the goal. Tough angle, but dude...you gotta make that.

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Union just had three shots either just miss or stopped by excellent goalkeeping in the span of about 2 minutes. Anxiety levels rising... First was a beauty by Aaronson just tipped away.

    MLS 2024: It’s Leo’s league, we’re all just playing in it

    I don't follow MLS all that closely, and somehow just heard about these rule changes today. Do people think the injury/sub rules have had a positive effect so far? They seem pretty sensible to me...

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Massive game at the bottom of the Bundesliga going on ATM. 0--0 Gladbach - Union Berlin 32nd minute. I would feel a LOT better with a win today.

    Yeah, but who's in 2nd? The ongoing Bundesliga thread

    Leverkusen did it again last night, with a 97th minute goal (from Unioner Robert Andrich, of course :) ) to keep the lossless streak going at 46.

    Misc. NFL Offseason News

    My old boss used to cover Tepper and had several face-to-face meetings with him. I need to ask whether this is all on-brand or not.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    The Penix thing makes sense to me *if* Atlanta thinks it will do so well with Cousins that they won’t have another opportunity to draft so high to backfill the position with someone of Penix’s quality. Or if the run on QBs allow them to trade him in a way that they wouldn’t have been able to...

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    I couldn’t watch the game tonight but just saw the score and was going to post the good news…but you beat me to it. Union Berlin, on the other hand….heartburn city. Massive game against Bochum on May 5. What other team has massive games against Real Madrid and Bochum in the same season? I...

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    This is one of the best games I’ve ever seen Palace play. I liked the hiring of Oliver Glasner. I’m starting to love it.

    Wow this is kinda making up for last night’s catastrophe in Köpenick.
