Top 250 Footballers (1950- )

For some time now, I've been working on a project that combines different measurement exercises. I created a prototype with 1000 players from the 1950s onward ordered in scales/groups of 50. However, it's obvious to me that there's a point where, no matter how hard I try to establish a recognizable pattern, the ways of differentiating them become too diverse (similar to what @pep pep has occasionally published).

For now, I've felt much more comfortable with...

The search for top class English/British managers.

invalid@example.com (YankBastard) — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:16:56 +0000

I was looking at the Premiere League managers and wondered why most EPL managers aren't English/British as well as England preferring foreign managers in the past as well as in the future.

I was reading Harry Redknapp's autobiography and I think he explains it pretty well. I'm typing it from the audiobook version so please excuse any misspelling or punctuation. Sorry for the length, I tried to make it as pithy as possible. I promise it should be worth reading.

....I sometimes get asked...

Going to North America '26: tickets, accommodations, etc. (non-politics)

invalid@example.com (Dragonlord) — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:16:10 +0000

So I'm starting this thread since I couldn't see one yet up by the mods.

Its prob still 1 year too early but at least we know the venues now.

Anyone want to speculate on dates, attendance , etc ?

I am particularly worried on how difficult it will be to get tickets vs prior WCs, particularly for USA matches. The over subscription for match tickets taking place in major cities will reach unheard levels, don't you agree ?

Anyway, lets get this started for the road for 2026!

Major Roster rule changes in 27-28 Season

invalid@example.com (nick) — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 08:15:48 +0000

I have watch or listened to 3 recent Don Garber interviews. In each he keeps referring to significant Roster Rule changes as MLS switches to the new calendar.

A couple of other owners have also made rumbling about the changes, but I have yet to see something specific.

I have to questions. First, has anyone insight on what is being proposed/implemented on new Roster Rules that accompany the new alignment with the global transfer market.

And second, if you could make changes, what 3...
