Congatulations to Mito for winning the league and coming up to J1 for the first time. I will try to make that away day next year. Also congrats to Nagasaki - I definitely would like to go there, too, but with current away allocation, that might be very difficult...

@gopankhurst.bsky.social Sehr netter Podcast. Ich fand den rant zu den Zuschauerzahlen sehr gelungen. Von der Ferne aus bin ich immer entsetzt ueber die geringen Zahlen. Selbst hier im "Fussballkoenigreich Urawa" bin ich ueber ca 2.5k im Schnitt immer enttaeuscht (gegenueber 37k bei den Maenern).

NEW PODCAST: First for J-Talk patrons (free feed at 3.30pm), @akakichinoeleven.bsky.social guests to chat about Urawa's pair of games in the past week and his experience at the Club World Cup, as well as potential summer window moves, and manager Maciej Skorza. www.patreon.com/posts/episod...

Red Ladies SD Kudo has completed the destruction of the Urawa Reds Ladies. After Kusunose and Shiokoshi, now Ishikawa, Endo, Kurishima, Naomoto and Takeuchi leave. And some, including Fukuda are loaned to the squirrels... I might get an indefinite stadium ban if I ever run into the SD...

😬

watch live as I embarrass myself, again.

NEW PODCAST: First for J-Talk patrons (free feed at 7pm), our J1 previews roll on! Hiroshima & Kashiwa go under the microscope, then we're joined by @avispadaniel.bsky.social (Fukuoka), @akakichinoeleven.bsky.social (Urawa) & James from @jtalket.bsky.social (Okayama). www.patreon.com/posts/episod...

And apparently, they never will.

With Saki leaving Roma, I am a little concerned that they might poach another CB from us to play with Moeka...

I am so looking forward to the purple wedding....

This article claims part of the decision not to have Urawa manage Saitama stadium is because there are also NT games there. I wonder if that is only half the truth and a certain far-right sugar-water marketing company's Japan franchise has some hidden interest... football-tribe.com/japan/2025/0...

Heute darf ich nach fast einem Jahr auch mal wieder raus zum Club. Spielerisch wohl auch besser als letztes Jahr. Und aus aktuellem Anlass: Halt bitte Deine Fresse, Maggus. Am besten fuer immer. Ich frage mich ob Sport 1 fuer illegale Wahlkampfhilfe belangt werden kann.

Men's team attendance in 2024 (including two cancelled games): H A Hiroshima ♦️❎ Verdy ♦️♦️ Sapporo ❎❎ Bellmare ♦️❎ Avispa ♦️❎ Gas ♦️♦️ Tosu ♦️❎ Reysol ♦️♦️❎ Gamba ♦️❎ Toyoda ♦️❎ Frontale ♦️♦️❎

You can tell it's the last game of the season. Tons of people here for the early entrance for season ticket holders

So, tomorrow is the last of 4 #RedsLadies home games this month. A win would keep us at least within striking distance. Kickoff at 2pm at Komaba; unfortunately at exactly the same time as the Fukuoka away match of the men's team.

I must say that Vi$$el surely is in the top three of unfair teams together with Kashima and Machida.

Shit players, shit referee. It had to end like that.
