Obviously thought them a step down from Bournemouth. Can't really blame him for that.

Good read, but will have to wait and see if he has the winning touch. Jury is still out among many.

You would have to be fantastically rich to cover the £1.2bn debt before you splashed out on a new squad.

This brings to mind the various Vote Leave "malicious" prosecutions that were brought with the only objective being to maximise the percieved "wrongdoing" of the Leave side who obvioulsy couldnt have won without breaking the rules. They were brought by individuals or the regulator acting on "advice received" again from establishment figures with self professed skin in the game. All, it turned out had little merit and were dropped, some with damages being awarded to the accused. It all smacks of certain people with a modicum of influence not getting what they want and wanting to cause embarrasment.

Oh dear poor old Utd. Anyway those English pundits will be saying that an English team will win the CL on Saturday lol

Wow Ian Maxwell taking over from the English with big boasts before a contest only to fall on his arse when they fail misearbly.

wonder what the odds would have been?

Yes would like to see Brentford have a go as they have been knocking on the door and will probably lose their best striker (Ivan Toney) again (Ollie Watkins) if they don't make it. They can replace Fulham in West London!!

Good ol Spurs

Certainly it is fair to say the back 3 will not take any prisoners, but equally fair to say that they might be a tad one paced - and that pace is dead slow

Interesting squad and think there are some gems in midfield, a decent keeper and 1 or 2 solid defenders. It is the forwards that do not instill confidence at all.

In the words of the Kaiser Chiefs " I predict a riot" it that ever occurs.

Not sure they will. There seems to be a total apathy to take them on.

Yes i miss the days of the Liverpool white suit and embarrasing FA Cup songs - apart from 1970s Blue is the Colour of course

News today that reformed club Macclesfield FC is to join North West Counties Premier Division next season. Another club Another example of financial mismanagement. Good luck to the Silkmen on a long and arduous journey back to the football league.

They have had a go on here but failed miserably.

Ahhh you said the name out loud, i'm just hoping it is an urban myth and he won't really appear on this topic.

Congrats

It's all mock outrage. The BBC got eveyone except uncle Tom Cobbley to voice a shocked opinion. If the SG wants to get Covid under control then they should focus their ire on the large numbers within certain communities that are steadfastly refusing to get a vaccine when offered. And if the SG wants people to respect its wishes then it should be even handed in its response to gatherings. People know they are taking the piss so will do so as well.

Another spontaneous meet?

That was a better display than our local council puts on !!!!!

It's not often that Chelsea do anything easily.

Yep, he has done remarkably well with some of the players who downed tools for Lampard and like SG at Gers his own tactical nouce has mad Chelsea harder to beat, which is always a good starting point. If he can emulate DiMatteo and win the FA Cup and CL he will become a legend at the Bridge. Hopefully the powers that be will give him more time than Roberto.

Yes ownership of football on the whole is seen as either a status symbol, a way to refinance debt or an opportunity to graft some cash, legally or not - there are exceptions but as Bury FC and Portsmouth before them to name just two of the many would testify, the size of the club is nothing compared to some of the owners egos, greed or incompetence... or all three.

Stop trying to improve Spurs, I like them just the way they are.
