The main problem of Switzerland: besides YB and Basel, no team could gather enough coefficient points to be seeded in the most crucial qualifying rounds.

Who can be the 3rd power in Swiss Football?

#rotblaulive #BSCYB #fczuerich #fcluzern #fclugano #ServetteFC #FCSG #FCThun
Just compare this to Austria. They have currently 5 teams with a coefficient over 10.

This makes it so much easier to have a shot in the qualifying stages. Except when you meet Vaduz, of course 😉

Still, things do not look so bad for next season. Basel qualifying will be crucial once again. Current prediction:

YB: UCL Group Stage (Pot 4)
FCSG: EL Group Stage (Pot 4)
Servette: UECL Group Stage (Pot 4)
Basel: UECL Group Stage (Pot 1)
Lugano: Out in QF

This would be epic!

Abro 🧵
Primer cuadrangular (6 de abril de 2001)

En su cuarto partido de la temporada, San Luis enfrentaba a Arizona Diamonbacks. Pujols conectó su primer cuadrangular frente a Armando Reynoso en el alta de la cuarta entrada.

🧵UEFA Ranking history

Time to go back in time. This thread shows the football teams who collected the most points for the UEFA country ranking since season 1955/56, in the last 67 years (!)

First the overall ranking, then I'll provide the stats for the big nations 👇👇👇
OVERALL RANKING
Real Madrid has clearly been the most successful football club in the last 67 years.

Over 150 points collected overall, this is insane.

Bayern and Benfica complete the podium. Also in top 10: Manchester United, Barca, Juventus, Ajax, Porto, Milan, Dynamo Kyiv
1. 🇪🇸ESP: 469 points
Spain has clearly been the most successful football nation in the last 67 years.

Shining beacon is Real Madrid, but FC Barcelona and Atlético Madrid did also contribute their fair share.

The news cycle is a confusing space sometimes;

Eg1.
- #ElectricCars are the future for the planet
V's
- Mining #Lithium batteries is destroying parts of Bolivia/Chile/Argentina

2.
- Decentralised #Cryptocurrencies are the future
V's
- Mining #Bitcoin = huge energy consumption
The narrative around everything nowadays is all about #Values

Corporates latch onto every opportunity

Individuals the same (just read some of the stuff on LinkedIn) 🧐

Life & business is essentially a game
#Winning is always key! (Be nice tho)

The rest is Perception=Reality
I'm a #football fan & I see a footy angle in almost everything I read! 🧐

Not sure if these connections stand up, but here's what I saw;

- #Bolivia former President #EvoMorales was ousted in 2019. Evo a #SimonBolivar anti-imperialist styled leader

So one of the biggest complaints I've seen from #Flyers fans over their efforts this season, is "they get scored on a lot, right after scoring".

So let's find out if this is true...
#FlyersTalk #AnytimeAnywhere
Through 28 games in 2020-21, the #Flyers have been scored on 18 times within 5 minutes of scoring a goal.
- 12 of those goals against came within 2min of scoring
- 4 of them came within 1min of scoring
- 2 of them came within 30 seconds of scoring
#FlyersTalk #AnytimeAnywhere
How does this compare to the rest of the league?

Most goals conceded within 5 minutes of scoring:
1. #Oilers - 28
2. #Caps - 22
3. #Leafs - 20
4. #Flames - 19
5. #Flyers/#GoldenKnights - 18

and the fewest:

31. #Stars/#Ducks - 4
29. #Sharks - 6
28. #Bruins - 7
27. #Kings - 8

El #HiloDelDia:

#Rangers🔵 ganó esta semana #SPL🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (LigaEscocia) tras 10 años, cortando hegemonía de su enemigo natural (#Celtic🟢), rompiendo records (sobró 6 jornadas), renacido desde 4ªDivisión y refundado.

Esta es la historia del ‘gigante’ que regresó de entre los muertos. Image
El #Rangers🔵ha ganado más Ligas que ningún otro club del mundo (55), Copa (33) y CopaLiga (27), sumando 7 veces ‘Triplete Nacional’.

Siendo, además, primer equipo de las Islas en jugar Final Europea (1961) y club con más internacionales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Y, sin embargo, todo quebró en 2012… Image
En febrero 2012, las deudas (90Mill€+impagos impuestos), aniquilan al #Rangers🔵.

Lo gestiona un administrador judicial, acreedores, quiebra, sanción 10puntos Liga y una orden: Acabar deuda, YA.

¿Cómo?
Vendiendo. Instalaciones, estadio, futbolistas…
Todo Rangers, en venta. Image

🗓️🇫🇷Un día como hoy pero de 1993 el #Olympique salía campeón de la #ChampionsLeague, siendo único equipo francés en lograrlo. Un campeonato teñido por la #corrupción de sus dirigentes q haría q el equipo no pueda defender el título al otro año ni jugar la copa #intercontinental👇 Image
En la foto del campeón se ve al protagonista de toda esa historia: el presidente del club Bernard Tapie, empresario (ex dueño de #Adidas) y también político: en ese entonces era diputado y años antes había sido ministro del gobierno de Francois Mitterrand. Image
Marcado x la corrupción, Tapie tenía el objetivo de lograr que el club obtuviese títulos para agrandar su figura y dar el salto político. Su antiguo asesor, Marc Fratani, quien denunció todas estas maniobras contó que buscaba “que sus aficionados se convirtiesen en sus votantes” Image

“In terms of ability I probably underachieved. But in terms of mentality, I probably overachieved” ImageImage
He was fortunate enough to play for a huge club @RangersFC but during a difficult time but still tried to play in a positive way

Which we hope we can encourage others to do the same
The reason we started this page was because Lee had always felt he had under achieved and wasted a lot of his career and now we want to make sure that the keepers coming through now don’t make the same mistakes!

Unsympathetic piece my friend. You use the Long Arm of the Law as if NS was even slightly guilty of being a Mafia Don as described by the uncelebrated Saqib Nisar. Neither do you say 'Dawn Leaks' was 'leaked' at exactly the right time and that if the warning signs were heeded 2/

With the opt in/out date deadline on Jan 18th 4 the @NHL #concussion lawsuit I wanted to revisit this breakdown from @SheillaDingus on the red flags of the settlement:

1/ A potential life & death situation is noted, in which the #NHL says “live or die...

advocacyforfairnessinsports.org/nhl-concussion…
we don’t care, just don’t ask us for any money.” Players are instructed to file a claim from the Additional Payment Fund—if they live long enough

2/ The NHL control of testing procedure immediately drew a red flag. It is notable that the cost of testing is NOT included....
in the total value of the settlement but is instead an uncapped fund under COMPLETE control of the NHL

It seems odd that no one to my knowledge has reported this

“In the big picture the cost of these exams is de minimus, particularly when the NHL is in control of these exams”
