Any owner is going to face the same problems with PSR. All TCD has done to date is criticise the current leadership's lack of creative solutions such as academy or new ground to release more cash without actually knowing for sure whether these might already be in the works. This is just pointless speculation IMO. If you think the owners aren't interested then would be better just to say we need new owners because these ones aren't committed if that's what you believe. But really if they are not ambitious, why would they sack Eddie? He's doing a par job. It doesn't add up.

Sick of hearing about this numpty tbh.

Yeah it's obviously quite complicated. You only have to see how doggedly the PL authorities have gone after some clubs outside of the cartel to see that. Just look at the Man City case, they would have dropped that ages ago if they didn't have cartel backing.

If there's anyone with the sort of money to take on the PL in a very expensive court case, you would imagine it would be the Saudis themselves who would have the sort of clout to bring them in, or unofficially bankroll them.

I'll let TCD take this up then since he's the one who has queries about what the board/owners plans are. All he's said is that thinks they are the bigger issue, he wasn't really specific on how this relates to the manager.

Maybe take it up in the PIF thread and see if we can figure a way forward there.

7th or 8th isn't going to have fans screaming for Howe's P45. The concern is more the way we are playing and shipping points to teams with less resources and who would normally be lower half or relegation fodder. Given that, I would be concerned we might find 7th/8th out of reach unless we turn things around pretty quickly.

Yeaf feels a bit like wishful thinking tbh.

Him and Caceido look class tbh.

That's been pretty much single-handed on Jackson today.

They are one of the Premier League's elite clubs, it would be bad for the game to punish them and risk harming the reputation of our great league.

Probably.

It would have killed a cracking game for sure. Glad they made the right/wrong choice depending on your allegiances.

it did if you're a Liverpool diehard.

they were gagging for him to be sent off.

That would be their bench.

Right now we just need 3 points against a relegation threatened team. We can worry about the display after.

Jackson has been awful when Chelsea are breaking forward. That's the third time he's fluffed his lines when put clear.

How the fuck did Palmer miss that?

But it's one of his remits to get the ball into advantageous positions in the final third. That's what left wingers do.

Right on cue.

Can still see Chelsea winning tbh.

I know it's funny but it's a terrible score for us.

Two goals from Cucurella slips

We'll win this one just to keep the confusion going.
