Why do Chelsea bother with their 8 year contracts then. Couldnt they just offer an extension after every year and get the same benefit with less risk of the player being a flop. The players would have to agree to it, which i guess could be an issue.

The sad fact is that if Jim White isn't able to put his yellow tie on and screech about another exciting transfer window, that may be the thing that ends FFP

In case it helps anyone, the mackems lost today.

Also @RUHRLYASLEEVESUP - please learn how to use an apostrophe. It's annoying me almost as much as the last minute goal.

Aye, not just a knee jerk reaction at all. I look forward to you complaining about Eddie Howe and the team after the next win. Bore off and support a team that wins every week

I think we can all stand back and spot the loser here

For all the talk of needing a new striker, CDM and a right-winger, I still think a 10 is what our squad is crying out for

Joleon and Rio about to both drop to their knees for a proper KDB suck off here

Either way it's embarrassing. Man City are the best team in the world at breaking down a defence. If we had any two of Wilson, Barnes, Willock, Joelinton, Tonali or Anderson to bring on we would have seen it out. Being on here after any sort of defeat makes the 'loyalist football supporters' moniker we give ourselves seem an absolute joke

Are people really blaming Eddie Howe for the defeat. Fuck me - people on here dont have a clue. He barely had a player he could sub on after our players running themselves into the ground

3 more points for FFP

Based on this commentary KDB has slid the ball in every time he's had it

Another terrible goal stopping save from dubravka there

Yep. The idea that Man City can spend what they want, but another club cannot shouldn't be legal. As if there is a chance of the PIF going bankrupt!

Urgh. Based on the new dissent rules they should be down to about 8 players though

17 year old Lewis Miley?

We get one replay of the foul from an angle that shows nothing. Football is just bent as fuck. I was expecting to lose but it's not like man City need any help!

He's not even looking at the ball, he just runs straight across Gordon. The ref is a disgrace

That's a fucking booking

Have to take advantage there

Ah, damn. Along with Bruno and Gordon I think he is our most important player

Only because they were holding the plastic bags up as part of their 'display'

Blood money, marra

What has this fella done to be in demand for jobs? Is it all based on when he was assistant manager at Rangers?

Best fans in the league marra! Off they pop
