Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

Given the last few years I'm not sure we should really be lolling at clubs with batshit mental owners seemingly intent on screwing the club into the ground. That said, £3 billion? Just how could a stadium cost that much unless you're using it for money laundering purposes? Tottenham's stadium cost ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

The Athletic estimates their revenue will hit c. £20m this season due to the US presence and sponsors that the TV series has generated. That's a mid table Championship budget. If they can hit those sort of levels, promotion from L1 is definitely achievable, but probably beyond them next season give...

Re: Rival Watch

It's just going to be nice to watch tonight's games unfold without having to worry about what the consequences for us are (for the first time in a good few months/years)

Re: Giant Ruben flag...

The flag is grammatically correct in Spanish. Think "Copa Del Rey" as an example of the grammar. Except rey is not a proper noun ... Berkshire is. "Spanish Cup" would be "Copa de Espana" (proper noun) "Berkshire Cup" would be "Copa de Berkshire" (pr...

What about Off at Eleven (OAE)? I vaguely remember that, but not what format it took. I first signed up to this portal when it was a shade of pale blue and lots of cascading messages down the page like a Windows Explorer tree, with titles of "X" then "Re: X" then "Re: Re: X&...

8 points separating Swansea (15th) and Sheff Wed (23rd), going to be a fun battle at the bottom with everyone having 6 left to play

Re: New Kits 2019/20

It's an homage to our 1966 training kits. Anyone who finds this genuinely annoying/offensive/troubling should be locked in a small cupboard, forever. Dear me. Of all the 'rows' this 'kit row' is one of the most pathetic I think I've ever read about. Guess some England fans are proud of the country ...

For years and years I thought they were called Solihull Motors. It was a real revelation just a couple of seasons ago when I discovered the truth. :oops: :oops: :oops: Their ground is right next door to the Jaguar plant on the edge of Solihull tbf. Nice little ground too. But the name comes from th...

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

Only four points? Why so few? Interesting that my understanding is that if Forest get relegated the EFL are waiting for them with more charges after they trashed FFP in their promotion season. Everton & Forest both hit a threshold to mean they get a 6 point deduction, but Forest had 2 of those ...

Re: TV rights

Channel 4 deal to show England matches ends this year. ITV have won it from September 2024 through to June 2028. Euros and WC actual tournaments continue to be shared by BBC and ITV Suspect that means that BBC will push to be the terrestrial partner for TNT Sport's FA Cup rights deal. Must admit I'...

Re: European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

Bayern Munich lose again. 3rd loss in a week incl CL. Now 8 points behind Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. They were bloody awful as well. Upamecano also picked up his 2nd red card in as many games. I keep half an eye on Bochum as my school was partnered with a school in Bochum and I did my A level ex...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Fleetwood Town (a)

Stayed at the in laws in Lancs so a relatively short trip back last night. Some thoughts: - A draw was probably about right overall, despite the disappointing manner of the way it came about. It looked offside when they showed the replay of the goal on the big screen in the ground, and the still ear...

Doubt he will be tomorrow.


Pochettino currently. Though there's talk of him being replaced soon too.
