  1. Is the cigar still lit? 😅
  2. England women's team once again doing what the men seem to be allergic to doing.
  3. One person correctly predicted England to win the Euros. Congratulations to you!
  4. If Spain win today it will be the 3rd summer in a row that they have won either a men's or women's major tournament after 2023 Women's World Cup & Euro 2024 for the men.
  5.

  6. R.I.P Hulk Hogan. He was arguably the most famous person in wrestling, he definitely had some controversial moments outside of the ring but the impact he made was huge and transcended wrestling or sports-entertainment.
  7. As of the time of writing there are only 3 teams left in Euro 2025. England have made it to the final and will be hoping to defend the trophy they won 3 years ago, they will be joined there by either Germany or Spain. Who do you think will win the tournament? poll closes at 5 PM UK time on Sunday at the same time that the final kicks off.
  8. Yes of course! I'll make a new thread for the upcoming season
  9. Undeserved for France although Germany's keeper was superb. Anyway it's Spain next for them so that will probably be the end of the road.
  10. Andre Onana wouldn't have been able to do that!
  11. If France don't win this match it will be an injustice, they've been the better team throughout.
  12. Roll of honour: 2011/12: Suedehead2 2012/13: Suedehead2 2013/14: Suedehead2 2015/16: Houdini 2016/17: Dobbo 2017/18: LewisGT 2018/19: coi 2019/20: Rooney 2020/21: Houdini 2021/22: Suedehead2 2022/23: King Rollo 2023/24: King Rollo 2024/25: Rooney
  13. Buzzjack's Premier League Prediction Competition returns for a brand new season! The previous edition saw Rooney ending the season on top and becoming a two-time champion in the process, will he be able to replicate that this time around? Flatcap was his nearest challenger last season, can he go one better this season? King Rollo will be hoping to reclaim the crown after being dethroned following successive seasons as champion. Can a previous winner of the competition such as Suedehead2, Dobbo or LewisGT add another title to their name? or will we see a first time winner? We'll find out as the season unfolds! As always there will be many individual rounds to play for and personal best points tallies. Rules are the same as last season with 2pts for the correct result e.g. a win or draw or 5pts for the correct scoreline. Opening weekend (All kick of times are 15:00 BST unless stated otherwise) Friday 15th August Liverpool Vs AFC Bournemouth (20:00) Saturday 16th August Aston Villa Vs Newcastle United (12:30) Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Fulham Sunderland Vs West Ham United Tottenham Hotspur Vs Burnley Wolverhampton Wanderers Vs Manchester City (17:30) Sunday 17th August Chelsea Vs Crystal Palace (14:00) Nottingham Forest Vs Brentford (14:00) Manchester United Vs Arsenal (16:30) Monday 18th August Leeds United Vs Everton (20:00) Anyone can join in and take part whether you have a fleeting interest in football or you're an avid football fan. Here's the thread from last season: https://www.buzzjack.com/forums/topic/273858-buzzjack-premier-league-prediction-competition-202425/ Best of luck for the season to all participants!
  14. ^ Probably the funniest trophy ceremony ever! No doubt Trump will do the same thing next year when the FIFA World Cup is handed out to the winning team.
  15. I can't see anything other than Spain winning the tournament, of course in cup football anything can happen but they just seem to be levels above everyone else. I'll be very surprised if they don't win it.

    It's unfortunate for Crystal Palace but really they will have a better chance of winning the Conference League instead of the Europa League. Also it was the FA Cup trophy itself that was the biggest reward for them winning the FA Cup final and that can't be taken away from them. Winning the Conference League qualifies you into the Europa League so maybe it could be the following season instead if they manage to succeed Chelsea in getting their hands on the Conference League trophy.
  17. Kyle Walker has signed for Burnley. Feels a bit like a random transfer.
  18. Alpine: Colapinto vs Gasly [Q,R] Aston Martin: Alonso [Q,R] vs Stroll Ferrari: Leclerc [Q,R] vs Hamilton Haas: Ocon [Q,R] vs Bearman McLaren: Norris [Q,R] vs Piastri Mercedes: Antonelli vs Russell [Q,R] Racing Bulls: Hadjar vs Lawson [Q,R] Red Bull: Verstappen [Q,R] vs Tsunoda Sauber: Bortoleto vs Hulkenberg [Q,R] Williams: Albon [Q,R] vs Sainz Jr Pole Position: Norris Winner: Norris Fastest Lap: Norris
  19. I just remembered Marc-Vivien Foe is another person who passed away while currently playing in the Premier League for Manchester City and he was the same age as Jota. He died while playing for Cameroon in the 2003 Confederations Cup and Man City retired the number "23" which was his shirt number. It's a further reminder that anything can happen in an instant. The effect that this will have on Jota's teammates who shared so much time with him I can't even imagine either.
  20. My condolences go out to the family of Diogo Jota and Andre Silva. This is very shocking and devastating news, Jota was a very good footballer and he'll be a big loss to Liverpool and Portugal. I can't remember a current Premier League player passing away before. R.I.P Diogo Jota & Andre Silva
  21. Mi intento subliminal de que España entrara en la puja ha fracasado. Ahora todo gira en torno a que Suecia se lleve el trofeo. 😳
  22. Man City knocked out of this by Al Hilal in a 3-4 defeat. I thought Rodri was back? 🤨
  23.

    BBC pundits have been making some predictions about Euro 2025. Alex Scott seems very sure that England will win the tournament 😂 BBC SportWomen's Euro 2025 predictions: BBC Sport pundits & writer...BBC Sport's TV and radio football presenters and pundits predict what will happen at Euro 2025.
  25. ^ This shows that there is such a thing as "having too much money"
