Has odegard died?

SSN seems to think so with their coverage. Hardly mentioned Baby Ruud being injured as well.

Talksport had a phone in asking should clubs be able to stop their players leaving for international duty? Something tells me they wouldn’t have had that particular phone in had odergard not got injured but erling had

Our aggregate losses over the first FFP 3 year assessment period (FY 2012/13/14) were £173m. Over the first 2 years, for which we agreed a settlement with UEFA, they were £150m.

They've just reported aggregate losses over the last 3 years of £257m. Under the old FFP rules they'd be well fucked.

Wonder why the rules were changed? Hmmm

This number assume that 73500 give or take turned up at every single league game last season and while that might be the number they reported there is not a prayer that is true.

Just watched Delooney trying to make an argument for utd's losses.
Media trying to brush it under the carpet.

What's worse is Villa were forced to sell key players, who'd helped them finish 4th, in order to comply with PSR.
Yet the press are giving the PL an easy ride cos it's utd.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

Are they not completely fucked for UEFA PSR anyway? If they just scrape through the PL, they must surely fail UEFA by a lot?

Not that it matters...

I rarely notice any empty seats at the swamp when I've seen games on television unless of course the cameras are instructed not to show any.

Cameras very rarely show their top tier and it's always in darkness.

So fans not turning up are all from one tier?

I’m no rag sympathiser but it’s not worth the argument, there’s 659 million of the fcukers.

Interesting comment, I've seen plenty of empty seats in many games at the leaking swamp.

apparently the latest figure is 1Bn 'followers' - fans are flocking to their mid table mediocrity , which begs the question - why didnt we get an extra 400m fans during our blip years ?
