    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    The FT article reminds us again of the enormous revenues that the PL, UEFA and FIFA rake in from football. No wonder they show little appetite for reducing the demands placed on players. Yet, as governing bodies this is an aspect of the game for which they have a responsibility. Instead they...

    Ten Hag sacked! (P 416)

    ETH has only himself to blame. He got every bit of help possible from our Save Poundland Pep campaign, but at no stage did he raise a little finger to help. It was almost as though he was doing everything he could to sabotage our efforts, culminating in Sunday's "which rag CAN shoot straight?"...

    So ETH is right when he says they're making progress.

    Did I get the impression the turf at the Emirates doesn't cause cramp on the same scale as that at the Etihad?

    Premier League Games 25/26/27 October 2024

    It wasn't as good a game as I expected. For the first 45 Arsenal were the better team, got a very good goal and then another in stoppage time at the end of the half. The doubts we had about Liverpool under Slot were confirmed. They had got an equaliser, but for much of the half seemed so...

    That's really disappointing after fighting draws against Fenerbahce and Porto. Still form is temporary, class is permanent. So trust the process - Sir Jim's at the wheel.

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    This little girl has just been told that there are 6 evil trolls threatening to huff and puff and blow Richard Master's house down unless he does the right thing on APT regs.

    Ten Hag sacked! (P 416)

    It's so sad that a great team of yesteryear should fall to 21st in the Europa League just because of injuries. At least they're riding high in the PL .... aren't they?

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    And is that your experience, PB?

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    "Masters blames Wenger's ill advised rant for getting City off 115 hook."

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    The PL can, though, remind us that they won the APT case.

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    Yes. I can only compare the gravity of the events to those surrounding a family returning from shopping to find that the porridge they had prepared before leaving had been eaten and their armchairs smashed by the predatory villain. A real tearjerker of story

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    Here is an exercise for Bluemoon fact checkers. This is, I believe, the media's view of the recent "spat" between the PL and one of its more successful clubs. How many, if any, deliberate mistakes can you spot? When the PL was formed the clubs agreed very sensible rules to protect clubs from...

    What a goal

    This is an excellent video. Watching it live it all seemed quite a leisurely, elegant, smooth build up but this gets across the pace, athleticism and effort the players are putting in without appearing too. And as you say, "What a goal".

    Haaland Goal v Sparta - Fluke or Genius?

    It was certainly no fluke. My immediate reaction (at least when I realised that I could believe my eyes!) was to say that it was just like his goal against Dortmund. But this doesn't mean that he must, therefore, score every time he tries such an audacious manoeuvre. The athleticism required...

    Football Governance Bill (Independent Regulator)

    Logically formulated, clearly expressed and based firmly on the experience of attempts at "sustainability" we've all witnessed but you deserve credit, PB, for keeping it in the front of our minds that recent "attempts" have had nothing to do with sustainability. It's a point de Marco makes and...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    This line of thought from Wenger is not new and was first revealed to an astonished world some four years ago (I believe though can't be absolutely sure of the timing).

    Sparta Praha (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

    Watching Pep's post match presser I realised once again that the PL is wasting its time with its 115 charges and should instead face facts that City's domination of the game in recent years has nothing whatsoever to do with any imaginary financial offences. Wenger got part of it right: we are a...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Once removed from the toxic north London atmosphere Wenger's opinions did change somewhat. He now sees no problem with owners like our owner, who put money into the game for the good of the game and the community but considers that (American?) hedge funds are the problem, out to make big...

    Come off it Tolmie. That's as much as Liverpool's shirt deal.
