Jesus, can’t believe people are having to resort to Algorithms and Venn diagrams to illustrate that they play twice a week.
Once at weekend and once in midweek. That’s twice a week.
The numpties claiming 3 a week is where the actual genius is.

Regardless of how many times a week we play, it's currently too much if you want to keep athletes in peak condition.
Its why you have squads although I think we are at the stage where extending comps is not a good idea for players or fans.

Takes me back to the summer of 1995 when our players went on strike. - For three bloody seasons.

I support them in striking. Suits are limiting their earning potential with stupid financial rules while ever increasing the amount of games they have to play.
I am surprised it has taken a union so long to flex their muscles. Both FIFA and UEFA have been taking the piss in piling on more matches till the players are exhausted. It doesn’t do much for the quality of the games, all in the name of greater revenue for the regulators.

Pre season tours are a money maker for the club but its at cost to the following season. The tours need binning off.

They should go on strike for the meaningless internationals that will no doubt be dotted through the autumn.

Pfa isn't a union. I have been in union's most of my working life. If I turned up at work every day trying to cheat a fellow member, or dive across shop floor because a member came near me, I would be thrown out of the union.
Yet the pfa take no action against their members that cheat and dive to fellow members booked or sent off, or worst to get other members clubs relegated.
What action did the pfa take on Keane attack on Haaland ?
