Girona are IN! the Champions League next season having qualified in only their 4th ever season in La Liga 4 games left to play and they could also be the first Catalan team to finish above Barcelona since 1942 The win against Barca at the weekend was just amazing Saw the extended highlights yesterd...

Well, that was thoroughly enjoyable. Being forced to play woefully out of form Casemiro out of position due to injuries is bad enough without having a manager who has shown throughout his time there that he has no idea to how to set up a defensive structure, which was a recipe for disaster that occ...

LOL. They are so pathetic. ETH masterclass again. No fit CB's (Evans clearly not 100%), no CDM, no left back, no Bruno I knew we were getting dicked in this game Injuries … schminjuries The whole setup is deadful I appreciate that Palace are improving, but they’re not Arsenal or City and United man...

Isn't it a plus that Maguire is out? :wink: Unfortunately for England he has just about 7 weeks to get fit. Unfortunately for England, he remains one of the best two CB’s available, so he’d better be fit Personally think Stones, Guehi, Colwill and Konsa are better options if all fit, but at the end...

Leverkusen equalled Benfica's unbeaten record with a 5-1 away win at Frankfurt - 48 unbeaten in all competitions. They were unplayable yesterday and with Bochum (a) and Augsburg (H) to play, you would be a brave man to bet against them completing the league season undefeated. You would also expect ...

Maguire out injured So no centre or left backs available for tomorrow :lol: Calling the loss now! Isn't it a plus that Maguire is out? :wink: Unfortunately for England he has just about 7 weeks to get fit. Unfortunately for England, he remains one of the best two CB’s available, so he’d better be fit

3rd win in a row for mine and El Franquicia's boys, FC Cartagena, and you would think that should be enough to avoid relegation really. What a 2nd half of the season! they won just 1 of their first 17 games they had 9 points and were somewhat adrift at the bottom. In the 15 games after that they go...

Man City are good enough to win without Craig Paulson’s help. :| I presume you’re referring to the first penalty. Was discussing this with a Gooner mate last night and he thinks it wasn’t a great deal different to the Rice/Davies incident from the North London derby. Whether we like it or not, Ait ...

You have to laugh at Birmingham; they survived easily the season we got relegated and looking good lying in 6th in early October, when the new American owners decided to sack the Manager John Eustace and bring in someone to "instill the winning mentality and positive culture" that the new...

Birmingham City's relegation got my thinking, they can be added to the list of teams I've seen us play in the top 3 tiers. Having followed the club closely since 99/00 or so, the list currently includes Wigan, Bolton, Charlton, Stoke, Portsmouth, Derby and Swansea to my memory. Got me thinking, we ...

It's ludicrous. This is meant to be a tool to resolve contentious moments and areas of "unsurety". I don't know what PGMOL has been telling its officials but to me it seems they're being told to not referee or make decisions or if they're not told that they seem to let VAR decide everythi...

Ascotexgunner Leeds apparently owe 180 million in unpaid transfer fees.....surely an FFP breach is on the cards if they fail to go up.

Shirley, that’s not an FFP breach, it’s a football creditor regulation that’s been around for decades

FinanciaLOL faiROFL pLOLay Whilst I think that they have been playing with fire a bit, to say that bringing in £100m from selling players is contrary to FFP is a bit …. WTF are you thinking they should have done …. given them away ? Plenty of clubs have successfully survived and built their entire ...

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...

Winston Biscuit Leicester winning the league and potentially getting 100 points is possibly the most underwhelming story in football

Only a month ago they were going to batter the points record … and now they’ve stumbled over the line

That would be a nice birthday present

Can’t remember if I’ve said this before but Mrs F has more Premier League assists than KDB. If we’re sat watching a game, if she leaves the room for anything at all, you can guarantee a goal is scored. She got four assists yesterday, one each for Arsenal and Spurs, and both City’s I’m sure it’s just...

Reportage, you thick goon, it was half his squad at Bradford who said it; great when things are going well but clueless when things get a little bit tricky and too eager to try to please everyone. I guess having a budget 2 to 3 times bigger than every other club in the league helps oil the wheels. ...

Keeping an eye on that Burnley Forest game If Burnley can pick up a couple of points that is gonna be a cracker. I so want Forest to go down. They offer bugger all in the PL. One of the few sides to take on the bigger clubs and they gave City a bit of a fright in the fist half. I wonder if City wil...
