Notes
*If you don’t see a league or team listed that you want to follow and discuss, let me know and I’ll add it (within reason). I’m not going out of my way to make sure Scunthorpe or Drogheda United are covered here.
*All Time Eastern
*Games on Major TV Networks are in Bold
Enjoy, cheers, and Go Blue!

I'm going to go ahead and own the fact that I will neg these random threads about soccer. The World Cup or the national team is one thing.
"Hey, there are some soccer games" today is something different. I don't see a reason to have thrice-weekly open threads about baseball and basketball, and those are more heavily followed here in the U.S.

Keep it op. Love talking futbol with fellow UofM alum.

Yeah, that one sucks, too. But I didn't click on it because it was obviously stupid. When I opened this one, I thought some important match might be happening today. But...nope.

baseball sucks.
March 11th, 2017 at 12:07 PM ^
Fair enough.
Which is why I won't start any "OT: Baseball Saturday" open threads.
March 11th, 2017 at 12:28 PM ^
Go ahead and start a baseball thread. The difference is that soccer fans won't be coming into it to tell you how much baseball sucks, we simply have better things to do, than worry about a thread on mgoblog. You might find like minded people who love that sport and it could be a great thread during the summer for you.
March 11th, 2017 at 12:20 PM ^
As much as I love the world cup and US mensNT, European club soccer is simply the superior version of the sport there is. Like we all here say, if you don't like a thread you don't have to come on here and discuss. Is it really ruining your day to the point that you feel like you need to make a comment on it??? Go and watch some more film of 15 year olds playing football, and get your rocks off there.

I can't watch mls on tv. I used to make it to more games, but this past season I only went to 2 games. When Beckham was on the Galaxy I went to lots of games. Even though he was old there was nothing like watching that guy make those passes in person.

City on to the semis of the FA cup, Middlesboro were a total disgrace today and I hope they get relegated. It looked like they were trying to hurt City players all game. Hope Chelsea can dust off Man United on Monday!!
March 11th, 2017 at 12:34 PM ^
No EPL game this week so it makes sense. Hope Gunners can get one or two early to shake off all the bad juju from the past few weeks COYG!

God if you guys lose to Lincoln City, Wenger should not be allowed to go to the locker room afterwards, just fire him on the spot.
