Oh, football — welcome back! To commemorate the end of international break and the return of REAL football, I asked ChatGPT to write a one-stanza poem to celebrate.

The break is over, the wait is over,
The Premier League is back.
Goals and glory, skill and pace,
The beautiful game is back in the race!

Okay, it’s not Maya Angelou, right?

Today we have a whole (whole!) programme of matches, starting with the early game between Soton and United, the usual series of 10am/3pm matches which for some reason are not televised in England, a late match, and a VERY late match (in the concrete slab).

This is your open thread! Geronimooooooooooooooooo!
