It is ludicrous to canvass the opinion of players or even most sportswriters on knotty questions of law. I wonder what answers we would get if we asked a top KC for a critique of John Stone's hybrid role in the CL final. So, why do we expect informed answers from professional footballers on the complexities of competition law or practices in accountancy and auditing? And why are they so keen to answer questions many of them don't seem to understand? So, is that why clubs brief top quality council rather than use teach yourself books in such matters?

I always feel @gordondaviesmoustache provides concise, erudite, insightful analysis in every post match thread if that’s any yardstick.

I thought that Meadows‘s Cup Final and career were ended by a knee ligament injury rather than a broken leg?

Correct.
I am getting old you know.

He’ll be one of those defending Utd if they get an owner from Qatar.

Goal posts will move quickly…

I asked his daughter today. He actually did both injuries at the same time


And she said it's Jimmy, not Jimmie :)

That's three times today I have been corrected, in future I will only comment on things that happened last week. I will probably get that wrong as well. :-)

Because they know it's their best hope of stopping us.

I await the deluge of articles praising Pep…



Pep Guardiola has gifted his six-figure bonus worth up to £750,000 for winning the Premier League to some members of Manchester City's staff, including receptionists and security personnel.

Rumours of a recent truce with Dan Roan can be put to bed. His latest effort has just been published.

BBC sports editor Dan Roan explores why Manchester City's domestic and European dominance raises further questions for football, as well as praise.

I wonder if BBC Verify will be checking his version of events (and the salty 'Have Your Say' comments) that ensure their journalism (haha, fuck off) meet the "rigorous editorial standards" the BBC is proud of?


No, I didn't think so.

Cnuts.
