Oldham banning 3 fans for "promoting their dislike" of their club.

Kostiuk could well be banned for life if we took that route.

AFCON during a season.

A huge amount of pundits saying about the disrespect shown by fans and clubs about AFCON. The biggest gripe is that its during a season, if it was in a summer i don't think there would be any fuss about call ups. OR have a winter break and schedule it then. The clash is the issue not racism

dead right, but top teams take players knowing about the clash. I don't think we saw Jo Jo being called up though.

every nation has a right to hold it's own championship. of course they do.

tbh the corrupt world cup having to be played in November annoys me more

Why dont they do it at end of season? Temperature? To lose your best players for 5 weeks mid season is a bit shit

Maybe because of the WC starting in November. Any African nation qualified for that would be pushed to compete in 2 such competitions in such a short space of time.

It actually changed to the summer in 2017, but was postponed last year and moved to January due to 'unfavourable weather'.

Presumably used to be played in January as not everything revolves around European football.

You do realise there are other Countries in the world, right?  And not every football season matches the English one?

Tbf, it was a waterlogged pitch so I presume the ref called it off.

They’ve consistently had problems since they moved to that awful new stadium. The pitch always seems to be awful and I remember playing them there one year and the car park had flooded.
