Flat Earth FC

Thought this was topical given this phrase, "Professional football clubs are subject not only to a nation, but also to a city. Flat Earth FC is the first football club whose followers are united by the most important thing, which is an idea."

I hear they're off on a round the world tour
Must cost them a fortune in balls lost over the edge.
Apparently they made an audacious bid for Messi, but the clubs were poles apart on the transfer fee.
Shame, that would have brought in fans from across the globe
Agreed that it’s funny, but you really do wonder whether we’re getting to be too stupid to make democracy work
tut tut Oaky......the world is the most educated and enlightened it has been in its history. Wouldn't have expected that from you
Ironically after missing out on Messi they had to settle for an anthropomorphic lion who can't resist a wager
@eric_plant Educated I'll give you, but enlightened? Choosing this example as the least politically controversial https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-world/freedom-world-2019
I hear they are going to play with flat balls, too.
I would say more 'well informed' than enlightened @eric_plant but stupidity is on the rise!
Do they play with a flat ball ?
They play with a round ball but they believe it to be flat...and as no-one ever has really seen the Earth or a football from space no-one can prove them wrong.
I take it they havent got Buzz Aldrin as their Life President then?
Apparently he got a bit fighty at the launch party...
Pity they can't play at Loakes Park, for the irony.
That is really interesting, cheers Oaks
Apparently they like round pancakes on shrove Tuesday
They also have a cycling club
Just brilliant!
