Didn't someone seriously post on "The Team" a couple of weeks ago "Shall we lose to Blackpoll to stop Poxford getting into the play-offs"? Also pathetic tbf If Spurs weren't so small time they'd be moaning about the fact that they should be challenging City for the title, not ho...
Clyde1998 This. Leicester, Leeds and Southampton would probably have the highest budgets in the Championship if no side had parachute payments - giving them PP completely destroys any chance of sides competing with them financially.
I'm suggesting that the concept of financial far play is oxymoronic when every year there are 3 teams who are on a massively higher level financially than the rest and that's before whatever shenanigans Leicester have been up to, despite selling some players, that will allegedly get them in trouble ...
6th highest wage bill in the PL when relegated, brought in £100M from selling 3 players last summer while also receiving parachute payments on top of that, were able to keep their players on those PL wages incl Jamie Vardy being on £140,000 a week, stumbled over the line having looked like they wer...
It’s actually quite impressive that Sutekh has managed to do the moan about the kit being released late when the already released information contradicts him
Was Klopp announcing that he was leaving when he did a mistake? Seem to recall Ferguson saying that his biggest mistake was announcing his retirement (first time) as early as he did as he felt it led to a drop off in standards by all at the club. Yes, competing on a number of fronts with a relative...
Pretty poor performance last night but as URRZZ says they've been doing it all year so to be where they are rather than scraping past Sheffield United ( :P ) is actually quite an achievement. Not sure if the season died after the Klopp announcement or if it has been since the FA cup loss but everyth...
You didn't say anything about improving the lot of smaller nations, I'd quote what you actually said but I'm not convinced it will work "When the World Cup is expanded to allow more teams to play (but also generate more money) everyone cries blue murder." That is what i wrote. I know, so ...
Obviously that wasn't what you said and anyone who believes that expanding international tournaments is for the good of the smaller nations is probably just being deliberately obtuse
people need to stop looking at the getting a replay/not getting a replay from a financial point of view IMO I agree with this. When the BBC / FA move the FA Cup final to evening slot to make more money every cries blue murder. When the World Cup is expanded to allow more teams to play (but also gen...
Or the ref knew the rules about yellow cards in the shootout and the commentator didn't and then spent the rest of the shootout taking the Tory MP approach to being wrong by going on about the ref being shit rather than admit he didn't know the rules. Hard to believe that Lee Hendrie and DD could b...
I wouldn't read anything into it. Compass/Levy contract ran out end of this season and was always going to change regardless. Whilst true, I also very much doubt that any catering company knowing the issues with payment Compass have experienced would enter into and happily announce a partnership wi...
