The Football Thread 2018-19 - This is the end.

Moreno is impressively bad, ball in box and rolls it to wolves player. Brighton away at weekend, Need to get stuck into them, tricky fixture.

The play acting from the wolves no.8 at the end there just as much cheating as a deliberate hand ball or foul.

[Corazon de Leon]

Wolves played well, and deserved the win for me.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

Happy with that draw. Just need to get through now .

Arsenal/Man Utd - nice big game there for freeview only viewers.

We got West Ham, bit disappointed really. We played them earlier in the season was really hoping we'd play Newcastle.

[Cuttooth]

Hopefully the shine of Solskjær will have worn off by then.

Also, how gooseberry fool is it that Barnet could have got a massive fixture and ended up with Brentford?

No disrespect to Brentford.

Feel like we can get some revenge

[PES Fan]

Wtf? These clubs make a ton of money and yet charging mascots.

[Moggy]

Whoever would have guessed that West Ham would be the scummiest of the scum?

Not only that

Well … all right. But you might like to know that the parents of a West Ham mascot, having paid £700 for an experience that also includes a training session with community coaching staff, are then required to fork out £80 for a club kit in which the child can trot out on to the pitch alongside a player.

Don’t be too unfair on West Ham, they have a stadium to pay for…..

Oi.

I did the mascot thing many years ago, and I'm pretty sure it was paid for back then too... It's very peculiar how this story keeps appearing every year now...

My question is how much do you have to pay for Arsenal and others fan club thing in order to be part of the lucky draw to get it... Because they're saying that it's free to be a mascot but you have to buy something else to order to be one...

Oi all you like, it is pretty hard to argue that West Ham are not a scummy club.

Liverpool do a draw from the junior members. Membership is £20.99 a year, with the main benefit being able to buy matchday tickets.

It feels incredible that many clubs - not just premier league clubs, albeit this stands out due to their income - are charging such high fees to be a mascot. There has never been so much money in the game and yet clubs are looking to walk down ever-grubbier roads for extra.

[Preezy]

Pleased to see that the ridiculously top-tier wealthy clubs don't charge a fee for mascots.

From £10 to be a junior gunner for mascot qualification.
