Stephanie Frappart set to make history as the first female referee to take charge of a men's Champions League game when Juventus play Dynamo Kiev on Wednesday night..

.. could be interesting
Don't see why.

She's already refereed games in Ligue 1 and done pretty well. I think there's a female ref that has taken charge of some games in the Bundesliga and she was pretty decent too.

Very impressive. Would have been even better if they just kept the camera on him and stopped cutting away to show the judges facial expressions!

There was a really good freestyler on the streets of Amsterdam, loads of footage of him on YouTube too if you like that kind of thing.

Great to have fans back at grounds but probably not all of them deserve to be there.

Some Watford fans leaving well before the final whistle even though they were only 1-0 down and Millwall fans booing the players when they took a knee at the start of the game.

Normality resumed :D

But why compress 2000 into a section when there is SO much space available. Bizarre!

Well it seems West Ham with their vast stadium have managed some sensible social distancing. I'm definitely not against the concept, just the execution.
Any road up. Pogba plays, everthing goes arse over tit. Coincedence?

I guess that would involve disinfecting the entire stadium and diluting the noise of the crowd.

I backed and laid the draw in a low-liquid match 8 ticks apart. When they were both immediately taken I realized I forgot to reverse the ladder. :lol:

I'm struggling to understand why we are forcing interraction, when we have a potential 'cure all'.
Just wait a few months. Blimey, its been hard. Don't waste all that sacrifice!
