It will be interesting how the media and pundits spin this one. Were there any issues with Alexander?

I am a bit young to remember the ins and outs and the birth of the PL but I wonder if a lot of fans felt like this at the time? Listening to SSN earlier on, I was thinking that if all this went ahead I would find it more difficult to be interested in the top level.

I was thinking that but all the pieces aren't tied together and it's just the first proposal - ditching the special rights for 9 clubs doesn't impact on the financial plans for lower leagues. Surely if the other clubs all object to the clear power play elements but agree the financial, the top 9 or whatever will look pretty bad if they then pull the plug as they're not getting their way. It probably is a case of putting the feelers out there and see what the general thoughts are with this. My fear is that is will become the 11 v 70 and if that is the narrative then the "big 6" will get their way. I see the Fleetwood chairman has already come out in support of it and I can't blame him really. It helps them become more stable and lets face it Fleetwood getting to the top is very unlikely so he is in a no lose situation. I guess clubs like Sunderland, Ipswich, Hull and most of the Championship whilst would welcome the financial support would be skeptical of the closed group at the top as the proposals would make it more difficult for the to reach the Premier League. The loan proposals also concern me, surely that will lead to more stockpiling of young talent??

This is obviously going to be framed as the only way to save the football pyramid and any of the outside 11 not on board will be painted as the villains in not wanting to "save the EFL" It is great for most League 1 and 2 clubs but with this in place I doubt another Bournemouth could happen for example?

Bit depressing actually. Lewis gone already and Aarons, Buendia, Cantwell, and Godfrey being hunted by bigger clubs. All 23 and under, could’ve formed a strong core for the future. Hope they’ve got a plan for reinvesting that cash. If it were us we’d spunk it all on fat British cloggers to feed Bruce’s insatiable appetite for mediocrity. Mike has me well trained I was thinking about the money To be fair I never thought about it like that. I can't blame the players as such they have had a taste of PL football and want more. I suppose any club in Norwich' situation would face the same issues.

Fair play to Norwich, get relegated and could flog the majority of their back 4 for a fortune.

He gets a massively smooth ride at the moment with no crowd and no real feeling for what the supporters think of the team. I somehow doubt he reads the comments in the Chronicle, or comes on here when he clearly doesn't even look at how the opposition will actually play. The only pressure he gets is a few half arsed journalist questions. Even with the current timidness of the home crowd, once they turn he's on a hiding to nothing. I reckon he'd go about 3 games before he was emulating the Pardew tears As it goes I wonder how this will effect managers across the leagues? Maybe the lack of pressure from supporters inside the stadium will see boards less likely to sack the managers? The run Bruce had at the end of last season you would think with crowds there would have been quite obvious disapproval not just the "twitter horde"

Are you saying MMA's tweet about TV rights may have some legs? I know this is not relevant to the takeover, but how mental is the this whole debacle? Amazon and the likes have wasted opportunities to film an actual basket case of a football club. Imagine actually watching Charnley in action.

I had to google it myself. Hit esc! Fast!!

I've got Manquillo, Hayden and Soucek to be booked at 90/1 I got a bit excited then

Thank fook my remortgage is over a year away, if a mortgage company seen my recent bank statement they wouldn't be taking a gamble on me. I've been lucky, I seem to go on streaks at the right time. Can easily see how people can get messed up on them though, I closed most of my accounts other than Sky and Bet 365 and set daily limits.

Moving on from the controversy I actually got into the progressive jackpot game for God of Storms on Sky Casino in June. My heart was pounding as the main jackpot was over £500K, typical of my luck I won the smallest jackpot of £360 I can't complain as I was betting 50p a spin at the time

Even though this felt the inevitable it is still a kick in balls. Surely if PIF/PCP are nervous about future investment as well nobody else will bother. Never mind lads we have the defacto Manager of the Season in charge.

Bloody hell which site was offering that ?

I'd be more than happy with signing Willian despite his age, I think we sometimes forget how important it is to have high quality experience in a team.

The flight trackers should have an easier job this time around.

Tote Placepot are offering up to £10 risk free bet (refund in cash) for it. My bet lost 2nd race in they refunded and let me withdraw cash immediately.

Had £5 on Man Utd @ 12/1 to win both halves and have most corners each half with Paddy Power last night, useless pricks drew 3-3 second half on corners

I've gone for an ambitious 40/1 treble booking

Judging by some of the replies to the post there is a high ratio of sex pests on that forum to

Anybody running a bath yet or have I missed that bit?

Needed one more goal in Reading/Cardiff game to turn £1 into £80. Had a six fold over 2.5 goals. Never had a decent cash out as Orient and Newport were 0-0 after 80 mins ?

Aye true enough, pays for my bets tomorrow as well.

I cashed out for £25 at half time I couldn't be bothered to watch it as wasn't feeling well and just thought Derby being down to 10 men would mean nothing from them 2nd half.

Right decision last night even Shelvey said after the game that the ref told them to play on in those situations. That being said, I would probably be a little bitter if that happened the other way around, the keeper did stop due to the flag being up.
