Football and the climate crisis: does the game really want to tackle it?
Green Football Weekend raises awkward questions about the game’s readiness to start taking genuinely ambitious action
They are listed on the fan scoreboard for scoring points via making environmental promises. TBH until the past 24 hours it's been very low key. I suspect someone near the top worked out football could look a bit daft if it demanded fans potentially living in damp flats turn down the heating by one degree whilst leading teams fly short distances around England.
Hopefully the Premier League teams will eat their own dog food and the concept will come back next year bigger and better.
Despite my cynicism about the bigger picture, I logged some promises a couple of weeks ago. At that point about 20 fans making a promise would put a club in the top ten.

Interesting aside about our association with Peter Crouch in this article, in the context of an article about Wrexham.

I struggled to see the point of the article. The Wrexham pair are rich folk who have bought a football club, which as the writer points out is hardly new. It's not a sportswashing project like PSG or Manchester City, and unlike a lot of "fit and proper" club owners, they don't seem to have done much harm either! If they make a few quid off the Netflix series so what frankly? It's professional football not Sunday League and they're not doing Paddy Power adverts.Unherd - from the founder of the ConservativeHome website

Anybody heard of USL2 team Vermont Green? A football (or bananas as the Americans call it) team that is built on being about more than just the sport by having focus on being "Green" and only producing substainable clothing. Take a look, honestly I find the USL more entertaining to watch than the English leagues.

Got to say I love their statement on the recent World Cup, puts a lot of the corporate cringe I read at the time to Shame Vermont Green FC & the World Cup in Qatar - Vermont Green Football ClubAnybody heard of USL2 team Vermont Green?

Yeah it is a real shame than NOT one single broadcaster in the UK had the balls to boycott the last Money Bowl. A real statement would have been sent if BBC, ITV or Sky just said we don't support this and will not cover the tournment. I certainly didn't watch a single minute nor did I pay any attention to it (don't exactly follow the national team anyway as I don't feel they represent the whole country) and the sportswash of people saying we are just focusing on the football (and money of course) was disgusting.
Anybody who watched the tournament in my opinion supported the backwards country of Qatar. It was NOT about football and football is NOT more important than all the human rights issues not only highlighted but not cared about. As soon as humans evolve past this religion nonsense the better.
Explain. Is it because you don't want to feel guilty about watching the tournament? FUCK YOU, SILLY SOUTHERN CUNT
That is the issue you had with my post? Well if you like Crap Grealish, Babheem Sterling and the rest of the millionaires club then that is on you but to support a football club that claims to be very much against the sort of things that Qatar are guilty of, opening fucking guilty of but choosing to not let it inconvience you is majorly hypocritical.
I love the fact you ignored the issues I raised and just cared about the boys in the plastic bubble.
Well he has an issue with me being from up North
As a non league football fan do I feel that the millionaire bubble wrapped players represent me? No I do not.
Religion is idiocy. Qatar, a country where Islam is the law makes it illegal for people to be gay and transgender, not to mention the death penalty for those residents found guilty of being either.
You Sir are a complete moron.
Enjoy your hypocrisy and go fuck yourself, cunt.

Former Wanderers midfielder's 'lucky escape' as earthquake hits the town he lives in
A former Bolton Wanderers footballer has spoken of his 'lucky escape' after the devastating earthquake in Turkey.
So they don’t represent you because they are rich, regardless of where they came from or who they are? Seems narrow minded.
Are you blaming Islam for the executions, and if so how do you equate that with Islamic countries that don’t carry out the death penalty or non-religious countries that do?
