Well, the Six Nations starts this weekend, which means it's time to make your Super Bowl predictions. I've upped the ante a bit this year by offering different payouts for different answers. So use your darts, lucky cephalapod, or even use your skill and judgement to answer the 10 questions...

An incident-packed final to the 4-team Spanish Super Cup yesterday - a late equaliser, a stunning extra time winner, red card for a slightly famous player, and victory for the team of local lads.

That time of year has come again. For the first time in living memory New England aren't there, but Brady and the Gronk are. There are 14 teams in the playoffs this year, with only Kansas City and Green Bay getting a bye week, so that means 6 wildcard games instead of the usual 4. You can go to...

Anyone else received this email from BFC? It basically says: We see that you haven't spent £10 to watch a game on iFollow yet, please complete this survey to tell us why. The survey offers a bunch of reasons to choose from, including quality of the service, quality of the team's performances...

No one seems to know if the regular season can start on time but the draft is still scheduled to take place on April 23-25, albeit without a live audience. LSU QB Joe Burrow is generally expected to be the 1st pick, which Cincinnati owns. The 2nd and 3rd picks are expected to be Ohio St DE...

As per usual, use your skill, your judgement, or just throw darts at a picture of Roger Goodell to answer the 12 questions. Previous winners of this popular game - what, you think I keep records of this thing? 1) The colour of Erin Andrew’s jacket/coat? 2) How long will the opening drive last...

Not wanting to watch the QPR game on a dodgy, pop-uppy, buffery stream I decided to sign up to DAZN.com The first month is free, and I hope to get the Leicester game too - that’s 2 games that wouldn’t have been available to me on iFollow video. Here’s my review of the service. Availability At...

You think the Premier League has sold out? The Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday won't include the league champions or the cup holders. And it's being played in Saudi Arabia.

It's that time of year again. I've reactivated our nfl.com Playoff Challenge group and, in keeping with tradition, named it with a terrible football pun. You can go to https://playoffchallenge.fantasy.nfl.com to register and create a team. Then search for our group by name or go straight to...

Dead easy to play, just use your skill and judgement to answer the 10 questions. Previous winners of this popular game - fellow Brentford fans, probably male, often sad lonely individuals. 1) First TD scorer - (receiver or runner or team defence) 2) First play of 20 yards or more - (receiver...

It's that time of year again. I don't have access to the Sky Sports Challenge, maybe someone else can set up a league there. Instead, I've created an nfl.com Playoff Challenge group again. You can go to https://playoffchallenge.fantasy.nfl.com to register and create a team. Then search for...

Week 4 New Zealand 34-36 South Africa Australia 19-23 Argentina What a great day of rugby, as South Africa and Argentina both hold out near their own line for unexpected wins. Why NZ chose to keep going for a try instead of a drop goal, who knows? SA had already forced several errors within...

New and improved this year, with 40% more trivial goodness. Dead easy to play, just use your skill and judgement to answer the 12 questions. Previous winners of this popular game include fellow Brentford fans, generally male, and occasionally quite sad individuals. 1) The colour of Michele...

The slightly surprising league table after 8 games: Surprising to me because Madrid were basically champions of everything last year and didn't lose any players of great note in the summer (Pepe, Morata, James Rodriguez). Meanwhile Barça lost Neymar, who was their most influential player last...

Anyone watching this? England are much better than in the last World Cup. I mean, you'd actually pay to watch this stuff. Or at least go out of your way to watch it on TV. A tonking of Scotland, followed just now by a disciplined 2-0 win over Spain despite only having 24% of possession...

Yeah, I know. :rolleyes: Still, you didn't miss much. The highlight was seeing Messi in devastating form to beat Madrid in the Bernabeu. All to no avail though, as Madrid won their remaining 6 games to hold on to first place. But hang on, it's not over yet. Two of our most beloved teams...

Since live match streaming will be available to overseas customers only, it seems a good idea to have our own thread to discuss experiences and the inevitable teething problems. Relevant links as of today: EFL: Live Streaming Platform Unveiled BFC: Package Overview and Subscription BFC: Terms...

So confusing when they start it before the NFL is over. Illegal forward pass! Wait, what? Forwards is backwards? Relative velocity?? Momentum schmomentum! Anyway, bring on the champions!
