🚨 Lost Adidas Kit Designs Uncovered 🚨 After YEARS of searching, last year I finally sourced the original complete 1993 BBC footage showing adidas designers revealing prototype kits that NEVER made it to production... Multiple Liverpool concept designs, the mythical story of a rejected black Arsenal kit, Rangers ambitious tartan kit, and the explosion of replica culture This is football kit history GOLD👇 📺 This is from BBC2's "Standing Room Only" (Sept 27, 1993) - giving unprecedented access to adidas and their design process at the dawn of the replica boom. What you will see see has been hidden for over 30 years... 🔴 LIVERPOOL: Multiple bold designs for 93/94 that the club rejected ⚫️🟡 ARSENAL: The story of the black prototype that George Graham famously HATED 🔵⚪️ RANGERS: An incredible tartan-inspired away kit concept 👕 Plus adidas explaining their revolutionary aertex fabric innovations The hunt for this footage has been YEARS in the making... I searched BBC archives, BFI collections, even contacted adidas Germany directly. Dead ends everywhere. I'd almost given up hope... Then breakthrough came when Jason Sproule shared his memories of the Rangers kit's appearance with me. I mocked this up and shared it with my community. Then the hero Marco Vidoretti 🙌 stepped up. He saw my tweets about the search and remembered he had VHS recordings from 1993. He'd digitised it and BOOM - there it was. YEARS of mystery solved in one moment. I actually found it! 😅 What makes this so special: seeing adidas executives and designers explaining their process, showing rejected concepts, discussing fabric innovations that would shape football. This is the DNA of modern kit culture being born ⚽️🧬 The brilliant Museum of Jerseys agreed to create stunning mockups based on the research: 🔵 Rangers: 🔴 Liverpool: Massive thanks to everyone who helped over the YEARS: Jason Sproule , Museum of Jerseys, Marco Vidoretti💜 🇮🇹. This is what happens when the football community comes together 🤝 Watch the COMPLETE footage and prepare to be amazed... 🎬 #FootballKits #90sFootball #adidas #KitHistory #ReplicaKits #classicfootballshirts #liverpoolfc #arsenal #GlasgowRangers Spark Design Academy Craig Buglass Amy8829 Chris Chats Shirt Arsenal Shirt Collection Classic Football Shirts Granny's Football Store The Rest Is Football Laura Kirk-Francis The Anfield Wrap adiFamily Rob Warner Jay Pearson - Tops of the Kop

Second half, we scored the goals ⚽️💪.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on Alejandro Garnacho: “He was very good 👏. Not only on the ball ⚽️ but also off it 💨, especially when he was pressing 🔥 — and this is what we need from our wingers 💪. Garnacho is doing well 🌟, Pedro Neto is doing well 💙, Estevão is doing well 🇧🇷. We need them all to be doing well 🙌.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca: “It’s part of my job 👔, it’s part of the game 🎮 [rotation].

Malo was close many times ⏱️ but finally he gave us the goal we needed for 1-0 🔥. Malo is one of our main players 💪 because he allows us to be versatile 🔄.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on progress this season: “It’s more noise from outside 🔊.

At the same time, we can do many things better 🔧.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on Alejandro Garnacho: “He arrived here from another club 🏟️ where he was not training 100% ⚠️.

My most PERSONAL post yet. Growing up, like so many kids, I was consumed by football. One of my earliest memories is religiously reading Match Magazine word for word every Wednesday. I genuinely enjoyed playing, or at least the idea, but it was never a “comfortable” experience, especially in a team. I always felt I had the aptitude but aside from tenacity there was always a disconnect between idea and execution. I left grassroots football before I was a teenager never returning. Years later I was diagnosed with Dyspraxia, a condition affecting coordination, movement and processing. I never had much of a chance😂 Fair enough, you’re either good enough or you’re not. But it still stings knowing my entire grassroots “career” felt like a 45 minute cumulative cameo. Away from football, business and economics always made sense to me. Money, systems, processes. I loved it. I’d eventually graduate with an undergrad and a master’s in economics, but sport played its part throughout we My athletic “development” took years though I did too Taekwondo for a bit it wasn’t until I found CrossFit where I found what fitted me. Stayed consistent, got stronger and now the “uncoordinated” kid can now do things he never would’ve imagined. We keep building! In January 2021 I formed my concept. Drawing on my love for Moneyball. I set out to bring something different to the Irish football landscape with a thread: “50 Ways to Improve the League of Ireland.” 50 became 260. The ethos lives on. Once Irish Football Blog, our “rebrand” to IFB Media just made sense. IFB covers scouting, player profiling, journalism, sports marketing and more. Alumni of IFB now work in national, international media and football. 30,000+ followers, built from 458 in 2021, modest, but I’m proud. People call it a “passion project.” It’s more than that, it demands obsession. Even then you’re never too far from negativity, or condescending comments, and not even from “trolls.” Mainstream sources are as bad. But this kid who got 45 mins of grassroots football now runs a pretty cool football page? Funny how it works, ay? IFB isn’t going anywhere. Neither am I. Let’s see what’s next!

This man stole a country from his own father and spent the next 18 years buying the West with gas money. - He deposed his own dad in a palace coup and left him in exile for nearly a decade - He founded the news network that aired Osama bin Laden's tapes - He built America's largest military base in the Middle East and charges no rent for it - He bought Harrods, the Shard, Canary Wharf, Paris Saint-Germain and 17% of Volkswagen - He won the 2022 World Cup for a country with no football history Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani died this morning at 74. Here's how bought the world: In June 1995, he waited for his father to leave the country, then took the throne. The coup was bloodless. His father spent nearly a decade in exile. Qatar is about one third the size of Belgium, and its population was barely two million, most of them foreign workers. But it was sitting on one of the LARGEST natural gas reserves on Earth. He bet everything on liquefied natural gas. Qatar became the world's biggest LNG exporter and one of the richest countries alive per person. Then he hit the problem every commodity business hits: Gas is gas, anyone with a tanker can sell it, and a tiny country with no army and that much money is a snack for its neighbours. So he bought two things nobody else in the Gulf thought to buy... The first was the world's attention. In 1996 he issued a decree and Al Jazeera was born. Within a few years it was the most influential news network in the Arab world. He owned the loudest microphone in the region and never had to speak into it himself. The second was the American military. In 1996, Qatar spent over a billion dollars building an air base at Al Udeid, outside Doha. It got the longest runway in the Gulf and shelters for nearly a hundred aircraft. Qatar's air force only had about a dozen fighter jets. In 1999 he reportedly told US officials he wanted 10,000 American servicemen stationed there permanently. Then 9/11 happened, and they came. The genius part: Al Udeid is now the forward headquarters of US Central Command and the largest American base in the Middle East, with roughly 10,000 troops. Qatar charges no rent. He built the asset before the customer existed, handed it over free, and bought the one thing cash cannot: The US military parked permanently between his gas and everyone who wanted it. The network broadcasting bin Laden and the runway flying America's war sat in the same tiny country, paid for by the same man. Then he went shopping... He set up the Qatar Investment Authority in 2005: - Harrods - The Shard - Canary Wharf, London's largest property owner, bought with Brookfield for 2.6 billion pounds - 17% of Volkswagen - Paris Saint-Germain All his. In 2017 the Telegraph ran the headline "Qataris own more of London than the Queen." Then 2008 arrived. Barclays needed billions or the British government was going to own it. Qatar wrote the cheque and its stake climbed to 12.7%. Barclays was later charged over how it disclosed that Qatari money. In 2010, FIFA handed the 2022 World Cup to a desert country with NO football history. Corruption allegations shadowed the bid for over a decade, and the treatment of the migrant workers who built it drew brutal criticism. Yet he walked into the opening match in 2022 and the stadium gave him a standing ovation. Every other Gulf state was selling the same molecule at the same price. Hamad spent his money on a newsroom, a runway, a football club and half of London. A country of two million now brokers hostage deals and hosts American presidents. He built all of it in 18 years, and he took the throne from his own father to start. Truly an unmatched legacy.

The players rested yesterday 🛌 and we have a session this afternoon ⚽️💪.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on Lavia injury latest: “We don’t have an update at the moment ⏳. We need to wait some hours ⌛ for all the checks 🧠🩺. At the moment, he is injured 🤕. He is in pain 😔 — we need to do all the checks 🧾.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on Pedro Neto: “Pedro had a session with the physio yesterday on the pitch 🏃‍♂️💆‍♂️ — it was good 👍. Today he will train with us ⚽️ and we will make the final decision 🔍.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on Rooney comments on rotation: “I said already many times 🎙️: we are in an era where anyone can say what they want 💭. I said after the Qarabag game ⚔️: since I joined the club 💙, it is my view to rotate players 🔄. When you don’t win games 😤, nobody agrees 🤷‍♂️. When it’s Andrey Santos 🇧🇷, Jorrel Hato 🇳🇱, Joao Pedro 🇧🇷 — it’s not about rotation. They’re young 🌱, you have to give them chances to make mistakes so they can become better 💪⭐.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on whether he liked rotation as a player: “I loved rotation as a player 😄🔄⚽️.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on rotation: “I think football is different now ⚙️ compared to years ago 🕰️ because of physicality and intensity 💨💥. 65–70 games a season 🔢, Champions League 🏆, Premier League 🏟️ — you need to rotate 🔁. This is my personal view 💬.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on whether rotating defenders causes inconsistency: “First of all, with the Levi injury 🤕 we lost our best defender in terms of build-up 🧱. From there, we try to solve problems 🧩 and adjust things 🔧. We try to find different solutions 🔍. Last game, we kept a clean sheet 🧤 with Trev and Wes 💪. They told me this morning ☀️ that last year after 11 league games we had 2️⃣ clean sheets, and this year after 11 we have 4️⃣ 🧼. So, I don’t know 🤷‍♂️😅.” 🔹 Enzo Maresca on if they are where he wants to be this season: “We try to win all the games 🏁⚽️. This season, the expectation has risen 📈 around the team 💙. The big difference from last season is exactly that: expectation 🧠🔥. The numbers are there 📊 and we can probably be better 📈. I said many times: I don’t like to think about April, May, June 📅 — I like to think if we can win tomorrow 🫡. Then comes the international break 🌍✈️ and we go again 💪🔵.” #CFC 💙 | #Chelsea 🔵 | #CHEWOL ⚔️ | #Interviews 🎤 📲 CFC_ChelseaFC via Telegram

Microsoft just lost $357 billion in a single day... While Meta gained $170 billion. Both companies are spending over $100 billion on AI this year. One got punished. One got rewarded. The difference tells you everything about where this market is heading: Microsoft reported Wednesday. Beat on revenue. Beat on earnings. Revenue up 17%. EPS up 24%. But the stock dropped 10% - worst decline since March 2020. Why? Azure cloud growth came in at 39%. The Street wanted 39.4%. A miss of 0.4 percentage points erased a third of a trillion dollars. Meanwhile, capex jumped 89% year-over-year to $37.5B in a single quarter. CFO Amy Hood admitted two-thirds went to "short-lived assets" - GPUs that depreciate fast. And Microsoft also said they'll remain "capacity constrained through at least the end of our fiscal year." In other words: "We're spending $72B in six months and STILL can't build data centers fast enough." But that's not the real problem... The real problem is what's happening inside Microsoft's spending. They're not just building infrastructure for Azure customers. They're allocating scarce GPUs to their own products: M365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, internal R&D. Hood said they must "balance Azure revenue growth with growing needs across first-party apps and AI solutions." Microsoft is competing with its own cloud customers for compute capacity. If they'd allocated all new GPUs to Azure, growth would've exceeded 40%. Instead, they're betting their own AI products will generate more value than selling raw compute. That bet hasn't paid off yet. And 45% of their $625B backlog is tied to ONE customer: OpenAI. Now compare that to Meta: Revenue beat. Earnings beat. Guidance crushed expectations. And they announced $115-135B in AI capex for 2026 - nearly DOUBLE what they spent in 2025. The stock surged 10%. Why the opposite reaction? Meta is seeing immediate returns. Ad impressions up 18%. Average price per ad up 6%. Revenue up 24% year-over-year. Their AI investment is already showing up in the core business TODAY. Better ad targeting. Better recommendations. Better engagement. Q1 revenue guidance came in at $53.5-56.5B - Wall Street expected $51.4B. That's 30% revenue growth ACCELERATION. When you have 3.58B daily active users, AI improvements compound immediately. Zuckerberg called it a "major AI acceleration" and Wall Street didn't care about the $135B spending number. Because they can SEE the connection between spending and revenue. Here's what matters: The hyperscalers are now spending over $600B combined on AI infrastructure in 2026. AI assets depreciate at roughly 20% per year. The five hyperscalers face annual depreciation expenses approaching $400B - MORE than their combined profits in 2025. This is the biggest capital spending cycle in history. And we just entered Phase 3, where AI-enabled revenue models must finally prove their worth. The market stopped rewarding spending. It's rewarding RETURNS. Meta showed returns. Microsoft showed constraints and margin compression. That's why we saw a $527B swing between two companies reporting on the same day. My read: The easy money in the AI trade is over. From here, execution matters more than ambition. Companies that can turn infrastructure spending into measurable productivity gains get rewarded. Companies still building without clear payback get punished - even when they beat estimates. Microsoft isn't a bad company. It's a company that bet big on AI infrastructure and is now scrambling to show ROI before margins collapse further. Meta isn't necessarily a better AI company. It just has a business model where AI improvements translate directly to revenue growth. For investors, the lesson is clear: The AI infrastructure phase is maturing. Winners from here will be companies with clear paths from spending to earnings. Not companies asking you to trust the process while margins compress.
