Several years ago (and when I was much younger and had more energy), I traveled to Thailand to see the sites there but also for the night life. After I booked that trip, their king died and they had a month long period of mourning which restricted tourist access to many of the things I wanted to see and also had a curfew on bars at midnight. Definitely impacted my trip and the plans I had, but I still had a great time and it kind of made some of the other experiences I had there a bit more unique.
EPL 2022-2023

Well clearly you didn't make the mistake I did and read the replies to their tweet announcing the cancellations.
Rugby of both codes going ahead this weekend so now it does seem unnecessary to me that they postponed .
it was solely EPL's decision to postpone. was it the best decision? that's debatable. given the schedule congestion already, probably not. security situation next weekend for the funeral will be much worse so it'll likely be 2 weeks of games postponed unless they can somehow squeeze in this weekend's games into the middle of next week on short notice.
Govt didn't tell them to postpone. Royal family didn't request it. There is no set tradition that they needed to postpone. The whole decision seems rather strange to me. but it is what it is. guess everyone in the UK and around the world can focus more on MLS

They said on the broadcast that both he and Foden are only 22. By doing some complex calculations with the help of some statistical analysis by
mgarbowski I'm pretty sure that combo could score close to a billion goals for City over the next decade.
Also saw a stat that he's now the fastest to 3 hat tricks in EPL history with 8 appearances. After him it is:
- Michael Owen - 48
- Ruud van Nistelrooy - 59
- Fernando Torres - 64
- Andrew Cole - 65
- Luis Suarez - 71
Sometimes records just happen like that. Like the time Lewandowski scored 5 goals in 9 minutes and I don't think we're ever going to see something like that again.
Will Haaland score 3 more hattricks? Maybe... hopefully not....
With the players surrounding him I certainly wouldn't bet against it.
Wasn't sure to post this here or in the streaming thread.
Smithsonian channel will be airing a docuseries about the emergence of the Premier League as the commercial soccer juggernaut of the world.
Looks interesting, set my DVR. Whether I get around to watching it will probably depend on what people here say about it.
Edit: just googled it. Apparently it aired on BBC last year. So it must be the us debut.

I wake up this morning, and what do you know... there is a Man City vs. Liverpool game at 3pm. Who knew???
It's Carabao Cup*, and according to Gotham, Jr., Man City only had 11 senior players in training on Tuesday, so this one should be interesting.

* - Technically, I guess this shouldn't be in this EPL thread, but we don't have a Carabao Cup thread, and I don't believe anybody wants one.
