I need in on this! I first heard it mentioned during a forum game, but that wasnt an ideal time to join as it would risk revealing my secret identity!

That's right... I am...

I can't help. I've never been invited into the football chat.

england games always seem to be some of the most dull, boring and lifeless games put on telly. may have been 4-0 but i feel like nothing happened at all in that game.

The player prices remain insane.
Arsenal seem to be going all in this season with some huge signings.

I'm sure Peter Crisp would approve of the Football League thread becoming part of The Collective.

I agree Ploipee England are very boring to watch. At least they're not as gooseberry fool as Wales though, hey?

He’s been a shadow of his former self for ages (half the time he sounded half asleep) but I hope they give him a fitting send-off on TV.

Some major cost cutting going on at Sky Sports. Bianca Westwood, Guy Havord, Dickie Davis, Greg Whelan, Lynsey Hooper, Jaydee Dyer and possibly Geoff Shreeves if he doesn’t agree to a pay cut all shown the door.

Yep, did not see that coming :fp: . Must win against Turkey now, interested to see how many changes are made to the team (apart from the required for Moore).

Right I've been instructed by my betters to let you all know that if you'd like to be part of the hyper-exclusive GRcade football WhatsApp group, please send our very own Dan "Herdanos" ... err Dan a PM and £10 to grant you access. Good luck, it's a gruelling initiation process but I'm sure at least some of you reprobates will survive the selection process :toot:

This is a great idea. Why dont we just shut down grcade and migrate it over to WhatsApp ?

How dare a mighty Premier League team like Luton be associated with paltry championship teams :x .

Outrageous :capnscotty: .

Imo paying for big name commentators and pundits is barely worth it. We tune in for the game not the chat. Decent insight is an added bonus but surely not worth paying for (particularly in game, post game might be worth it if you can get people to watch an extra couple of advert breaks).
